“yeah, sure.” grace holds up the tooth to the xenonite barrier.

“no, closer,” rocky says, claws clicking nervously. “want to hold.”

grace considers that. if rocky were to, say, lose a chunk of carapace, he’d ask to have it without a second thought. he’d probably make an excuse about wanting to point a spectrometer at it or test its properties, and he’d obviously do those things, but he’d mainly just want to touch it. to hold a piece of rocky without fear of either of them being harmed.
