Summary
Sung to the tune of Muppet Babies
Monster Babies!
We make nightmares come true.
Monster Babies!
We'll do the same for you!
When your room looks kind of weird
And you wish that you weren't there,
Just close your eyes and make believe
And we can be anywhere!Jurgen Leitner thinks he’s Charles Xavier. (He’s wrong. Leitner is actually our bureaucratically minded antagonist.) Elias Bouchard thinks he’s the only adult in the room. (Unfortunately, he’s right; even when he’s 14 years old.) And Jonathan Sims is an adorable small child who can make you answer why until your ears bleed.

Summary
I wasn't really expecting it to come up at all, if I'm being honest, but you know what they say about assuming. After all the initial discussions and work to figure out what I could eat, what I needed to get via food, and how best to ensure adequate nutrition, I figured food wouldn't come up again. Like, ever. Eridians are super private about it, and it's a nutritional obligation to them, not a social norm like it is for humans. That was fine - they soundproofed my kitchen and dining room for an added layer of protection, once they realised how noisily humans eat. No harm, no foul.
I hadn't accounted for the anthropologists.

A brave group of Eridian scientists finally broach the taboo topic of food with Grace, and there's a whole lot of miscommunication, a few false allegations, and the unveiling of an unintentional slight Eridians have been committing against Grace since the beginning - with Rocky being the worst offender of them all.

Summary
Laurence and young Bertram had evidently been practicing fencing, if the two wooden rapiers lying in the grass were anything to go by, but at some point Laurence had gotten a hold on the boy and was now twirling the child in circles, flung over his shoulder like a sack of grain, as they both laughed bright as the sun. With their golden hair and elegant features, they could have been father and son, and Tharkay had a sudden, horrifying realization that he had miscalculated.
Tharkay, upon discovering that Laurence loves children, realizes he might want some of his own someday. He proceeds to severely overreact to this revelation.
