    Summary

    Rocky can still feel them. He’s sensed them ever since Grace first crossed the tunnels to Rocky’s ship, the faint sensation traveling through the xenonite to the sensors on the ends of Rocky’s claws. There are vibrations of two others beyond the tunnel, echoing faintly from the interior of the Hail Mary, soft as whispers but completely unmistakable. There are two others on the ship, and Rocky has no idea why Grace is playing dumb.

    (Or: Ghosts still send out vibrations, and Rocky is lucky enough to pick up on them)

    Summary

    Slowly, clumsily, Grace’s hand traveled from its place in Simon’s hair down to his unmarred cheek. His fingers breezed over his skin, tracing little lines and shapes. They drifted down, ghosting over his jaw and brushing against his stubble. With a touch so gentle and delicate Simon found it impossible to turn away, Grace slowly, carefully, guided his head closer to his.

    Their faces were close. Very close. Like a brush had powdered across his cheeks, Grace’s face was dusted red, a shade too dark to just be from intoxication. Simon’s own face was beginning to burn, from the tops of his ears to the apples of his cheeks. Grace stared up at him, his sky blue eyes swirling with clouds, distant and calculating, as they fluttered across Simon’s face. They came to a rest at his lips, then flickered back up to Simon’s eyes, then back down again.

    “C’n—“ Grace worked his mouth, as if gathering his words. “Can I kiss you?”

    Summary

    Rocky could hear a low thrum through the Hail Mary, but there was no source no matter how he clicked or hummed, trying to keep himself quiet to not disturb Grace or Simon's sleep.

    Then Simon began to jerk in his sleep, pleas and 'no's falling from his lips as the humming deepened, and quiet hissing words began to echo through the ship.

    Rocky stiffened and growled dangerously.

    Simon was under attack.

    Rocky would protect.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "What is this??" he heard it mutter, bouncing off his thrum again, trying to get at Simon. Rocky growled deeper, reinforcing his shield with a second note, still too low to wake Grace or Simon, but enough to help confuse and weaken the creature.
