“No. Is different, but equivalent violation. Means, to force to sleep.”

Summary
The guy only sniffs and hitches his hands up on his hips, showing off a trimmer waist than his oversized rugby shirt suggested. “What’s your name again?”
“Rocky,” he offers, simple and easy. “You?”
“Grace,” the guy says. “Or Mr. Grace, if you’re a seventh grader within twenty yards of me.”
“Just Grace?”
“Just Rocky?”
Rocky arches a brow and steps inside the copy room, which seems to charge up the air despite the preexisting smell of hot paper and toner. “Look, Mr. Grace,” he says, trying to keep his posture open and casual even though Grace is nearly a hand taller than him. “I didn’t mean to roll up like gangbusters on your copy room racketeering gig, I was just trying to learn the lay of the land and get my sheets prepped for the kids. But I’ll mosey on down to the math department and put my formal order in if need be.”
Grace rolls his jaw like he’s got a marble in his mouth, and now that they’re closer Rocky can make out the bright blue of his eyes and the gold in his lashes. Damn, he’s a good looking son of a bitch, if only he didn’t have a stick jammed so far up his pert little—

I think if I’d woken up alone on a spaceship with amnesia and two dead bodies, I might’ve gone crazy right there and then. But the good thing about being alive is that you’re never alone.

Summary
There are still four viable sperm samples in the Hail Mary’s deep freeze storage. Ryland knows this because he’s asked Mary about it twice since the day Jude was born. Once, when she was barely six months old, which unnerved him so badly that he slammed the laptop shut before Mary could finish telling him about the samples.
The second time was about five minutes ago, give or take a few seconds.

Summary
The capsule touches down on Erid about a decade and a half after I do.
There's a message inside translated into fourteen different languages. Y'know, just in case I've taught myself - and then the Eridians - Afrikaans.
Hey, it reads. Can we have our ball back, please?

Summary
“Um, hello.” Rocky lifts a hand slowly. The rock spider chitters and attempts to lift one back. But it’s tangled in wire, and the force that the alien uses to tug it free sends his body reeling backwards and thumping against the side of the tunnel. Rocky tries to keep a straight face.
“I’ll call you Grace,” he says. “Clearly you have plenty of it.”
...
Rocky wakes up in the Tau Ceti system, with his commander and science specialist dead. How's he supposed to save Earth?
Befriend the alien scientist he runs into, of course.

Summary
"Many stages in Eridian reproductive process. Rocky Adrian laying cycles finally sync up recently. So, Rocky Adrian think finally time for eggs. Adrian lay five eggs, very good. Only, strange thing happen. Rocky only lay one egg."
“Oh,” I say. “That’s unusual, right?”
"Very," Rocky hums.
My throat tightens. "Does that mean there's something wrong? Are you sick?"
Rocky makes a gesture I usually interpret as "not exactly". "Not sick," he says. "But doctors still worry. When Eridian start to make fewer eggs, this usually means laying period of life is over soon. Rocky very young for this. Rocky supposed to be in ideal time of life for laying. Rocky younger than Adrian, even." He shifts on three of his feet. Already, my mind is racing ahead, wondering -- "Doctors told Rocky to ask Grace, is this radiation side effect, question?"

Summary
Javert looked out in time to see a gleaming tail disappear in the water. He followed him with his eyes and the sneer of disgust was replaced by a shaking of the head.
Why want to be treated like a human if you won’t try to be one?

Summary
Theft, forgeries, post-it note conversations, and a rivalry that's spanned decades. Jean Valjean has avoided arrest for nearly ten years since he was first released from prison after being arrested the first time, and he is the number one annoyance to one Detective Inspector Javert. And then Valjean breaks into his apartment to give him a painting. And then he continues breaking into his apartment to leave post-it notes on his refrigerator and gifts on his coffee table that Javert throws away at the first opportunity. And then Javert doesn't know what to think.
Javert hates his life and he hates art, but most of all he hates Valjean.

Summary
Javert tries to open his eyes, but he only manages to crack them a sliver. They sting and through the pain, he can only see milky lights and darks. “Why?” he rasps, ignoring Valjean’s question. He wants to know why he’s alive.
“I saw you jump,” Valjean’s voice says, as if it’s that simple.
Maybe, to him, it is.
Valjean pulls Javert from the river. You know how it goes.

Summary
“I’ll be watching you,” Javert said, narrowing his eyes and thumping his truncheon to emphasize his point. “I’ll be listening from just the room over and I sleep very lightly so I’ll hear it if you try to sneak out at night.”
“More likely, you’ll hear Cosette crying if I try to sneak out at night,” Valjean corrected placidly.
Five times Javert threatens arrest (sort of), in which Cosette is a baby, and Javert grants Valjean the three days he asks for—but of course just ends up raising a baby.

Summary
Valjean pulls Javert up out of dark waters.
""No," Valjean says, but Javert knows that he has planted the possibility – Valjean shoving aside the bedclothes and rucking up his nightshirt and the grim slap of flesh on flesh and those hard convict's eyes boring into the back of his neck, Valjean's breath on the back of his neck again, and –
The rush of blood southward catches him almost by surprise. He hopes Valjean does not notice the change in his eyes, the startled swallow. He always hopes too much. To see where he stands Valjean need only glance at the bedclothes.
This, Javert thinks, the thoughts leaden in his stomach. This, this, this is what becomes of you without the prop of your law. This is where your thoughts slink – vile and filthy, back to the gutter, this is the slimy rind that's left of you –"
