have we considered a grockdrian scenario wherein adrian falls in love with grace in what is considered pretty fast for eridian standards… except it is unfortunately nowhere near fast enough for the human lifespan?
think about it. rocky and grace's bond is something impossible to measure up to. after all they went through, they latched onto each other in almost no time at all. their love is one of a kind, and it's just not something that can be replicated.
adrian knows this. they know that they will never be able to love grace the way rocky does, and perhaps grace will never love them the way he loves rocky.
but that's fine. for now, they can make room in their life for him. and maybe someday, they can learn to love grace.
and, for a while, things are okay. rocky has two mates, and those two mates get along. maybe a little begrudgingly from adrian's end, but grievances fade with time.
they get to know each other. adrian talks to grace regularly. starts calling him a friend, at some point.
then, the feelings start. they're slow, creeping up on them over the years. a small twinge of something when grace smiles. a stutter of their hearts' rhythm when grace laughs. lingering whenever rocky and grace hug. straining to listen to the soft sounds of them kissing.
but it's nothing, right? they push those feelings aside. not because they're suppressing them, but because they attribute affection to fascination—they mistake their love for curiosity. they think grace is a scientific interest, and they think that for a long time...
by the time adrian realizes they're in love with grace, grace is on his deathbed.
he is old, frail and plagued with the many illnesses that come with age. he forgets many things now. sometimes he doesn't recognize rocky or adrian. still, he smiles at them all the same.
adrian has spent the last few decades studying the human body, tracing the features of grace's face, mapping the curve of his smile.
it is only then that they realize: this is an infatuation that goes beyond the sciences. they've fallen in love with grace.
why now? why not a century from now, when the memory of grace will be but a plesant ache settling in their appendages? why not decades before this, when grace was still at his physical peak, when they still had the rest of his life to spend together?
why now?
why did they fall in love with grace after he already spent an entire lifetime waiting for them? why did they reach out to grasp at an opportunity that already passed them by?
why did they realize what they had to lose just as they were about to lose it?

since this is being posted i believe a month after the last part im gonna say that yes they've been at this for 4 weeks and grace categorically refused to engage with a weird dream riddle and delegated that in favor studying of his new front yard decoration until frustration finally broke him
we love an avoidant behaviour king
part 1, part 2, part 3, part 3.5, part 4, part 5
+ bonus what i imagine the eridians looked like witnessing the Plot™
random yapping by yours truly below the cut
i have FINALLY finished this thing!! holy crap thank you to everyone who has been following and for the incredible, enthusiastic comments that have been feeding my ego!
this wasn't honestly supposed to go beyond the first part but the muse asks for no opinion when she takes a mallet to your head i guess,,
since ive personally always been a fan of people showing sketches with their work heres some stuff from my process:
these are as i affectionately call them my insane person notes, frantically scribbled down and barely legible to even me
(edit: forgot to add since my handwriting isn't that legible, i picked the random plant parts of the tree from googling symbolism of plants so if anyone's interested here tis
Aspen- bravery, facing the unknown
Mangrove- strength, support
Oak- longevity, strength, robustness
Red carnation- i love you forever
Grapes- rebirth
Maple- strength, resilience
Ginkgo- resilience, longevity, duality, peace)
and here's a random warm up page that i did:
once again thank you everyone for your support and interest, it's been amazing
Two dudes in my group chat have been playing league & slowly but surely have shifted from saying "wanna play league of legends" to "wanna play some geego legends". At this point their average post is just @ing the other and going "geegogagand?" and I feel insane
