    Summary

    “Why Grace record video, question? Thought communication with Earth no longer possible.”

    “I figured I’d record some logs of our journey for fun. Maybe the Eridians will find them interesting.”

    “Idea good, good, good. Can use videos to teach about Grace.”

    “About me?”

    “Teach about Grace body. Human anatomy.”

    or: Rocky touches Grace on camera for “educational purposes.”

    In which Ryland Grace is so touch-starved that he'd willingly subject himself to twenty-nine atmospheres of pressure to hold Rocky's hand.

    Summary

    Partway into the trip to Erid, Rocky reveals to Grace that he could hear him every time he tucked himself into the bathroom to get off. Things get weird.

    "Makes sense. Though, I think the closest word we have for that in English would be alluring. Like, something that's attractive or enticing, pleasing to the senses. But that word has kind of, um. Intimate undertones," I finish awkwardly. I'm regretting saying that already. It is legitimately the closest match that I know, but I basically just told my best friend that he unwittingly called my gross organ sounds sexy. Surely that's not what he-- wait a minute.

    Summary

    The elevator's receiver array picks up a garbage signal beamed in from deep space. No matter their attempts, Eridian scientists cannot make top or bottom of it. A misfire, or an echo of that long lost crew's final transmission, most likely. It is recorded, but never publicized.

    And then it happens again.
