How many gorillion in 1 silmarillion?

Consider

Rocky agrees, so Grace pulls up a photo of a basic snakes and ladders board and some dice for Rocky to replicate (with proper grooves so it's Eridian-accessible of course), and while it's fun for a little bit, Rocky eventually decides things need some livening up and modifies the board and rules to incorporate some features of a simple game from Eridian culture.

Turns out that the thought required for this interspecies boardgame hybridization is a fun way to pass the time, so they continue to go back and forth with games from each of their cultures, modifying and expanding the same board that they originally started with to conserve resources.

What ensues over the next couple years is some form of wild boardgame evolution resulting in the most convoluted and arbitrary set of rules that would be practically incomprehensible to anyone else on either planet, but they don't think too hard about this and decide one day on Erid that wait, we should try and teach Adrian!

And now Rocky and Adrian equally love Grace. They always argue over who gets to bring him to their work (Adrian likes to have him for feedback for the bio-dome and Rocky likes to have someone to talk to while he tinkers). They both watch over him when he sleeps and Grace wakes up to two Eridians very, very close to his face.

They’re the couple with the third wheeling friend, except they are all equally happy about the arrangement. Rocky and Adrian go on a date, just the two of them, one time and get asked by no less than six people if Grace is okay.

god this is dumb (original)

Adrian: No, don’t be mean.

Rocky gently swaying Grace: Leaky space blob.

Adrian: No!

Grace grinning as Rocky sways them in the air: Very leaky, squishy blob.
