I love how Grace, in the eridian’s point of view, is absolutely infested with parasites and diseases. His whole body is a darn ecosystem with loads of bacteria, viruses, fungi, the utter insanity that is the immune system, and tiny little microscopic bugs.
And it’s almost all necessary.
Every single part of him is alive. Every single part of him breathes and consumes. He becomes a total nightmare (but at the same time scientific marvel) to the eridian biologists, who witnesses a creature with its own biosphere. (And are met with the daunting responsibility of keeping such a frail ecosystem alive)
