She will never lay a hand on their Grace again

Grace having mate/purpose/name tattoos via scarification. Grace having his mates rock colors on him in form of jewelry and dangling necklaces that chime and make noise like a cat bell. Grace returning to earth completely changed, almost alien, and better for it. Near unrecognizable to people who once knew him. His speech patterns slightly off, his hearing excellent, his eyes adjusted to permanent low light. Spans of tiny scratches across his arms and body permanently marking him Eridian. His name, his mates, his purpose, the petrova line connecting sol to tau ceti, thus connecting grace to rocky, permanently etched on his being. His left arm disfigured and scarred from the Eridian atmosphere, a permanent reminder of what he was willing to sacrifice for rocky, a purpose tattoo in and of itself. TO BE LOVED IS TO BE CHANGED

Erid gave Grace a home in the way Earth never could, with no expectations of a human society that shunned Grace and left him outcast- an alien among his own species. Hes more at home among real aliens than he ever was on Earth. And if- when- he returns to that blue planet he will be more alien than ever, but belonging more than he ever did.

Rocky Adrian watch Grace sleep

Adrian and Grace are still getting used to each other, I like the idea of Rocky and Grace already having an established dynamic, one that Adrian is perfectly okay with of course but she’s still warming up to Grace themself. And unexpectedly they start to have interest in getting closer.

Been sitting on these for a solid month now so I figured it’s time to post em! AU in which an aging and frail Grace gets his consciousness transfered to an eridian body to extend his life :D
