“Grace says he would like half of dome to be water.”

“Oh, is necessary for humans to have large amounts of water question?”

Small Eridian equivalent of a sigh. “No. Not needed for life. In fact Grace will die if he falls in water and does not get out.”

“Tell him we give him water in containers that won't kill him. Lots lots lots of water on Erid for Grace to drink.”

“No. Grace say he want water on ground. Also want it with excess sodium chloride compound so it will be unhealthy for drink.”

I keep thinking about that line from the second ep of threshold….

John asks every time he takes over Arthur’s body to drive. Arthur communicates when he is uncomfortable and his concern about losing control in his own body. John expresses frustration about how nobody talks to him directly except for Arthur and Noel.

They keep navigating this unique situation while trying to respect each others feelings. They use the time out to separate and think without the other.

The navigation of their shared body is one of the most interesting things about their relationship. They cannot separate. They depend on each other. John makes Arthur walk into fences when he is angry. They have to communicate in a way that goes above and beyond most relationships.

But the thing that is different from the first seasons is that they both chose this life. They both wanted this. They love each other. They are trying to make it work. Together. And it is exhausting and difficult at times but it’s worth it to them.

Just two fellas
