Summary
“How long do humans live for, question. Rocky want to know.”
Rocky stamps his claw impatiently on the flat surface of his xenonite ball as he asks, a skittery, jittery movement that rattles in Ryland’s ears.
He sighs. Rubs at his temples. Thinks about how to answer this as diplomatically as physically possible, as at ease as physically possible.
It’s not that he cares much about the fact he’ll be dead long long before Rocky. He doesn’t care about that. He’s probably going to die a whole lot sooner than your average human, anyway, considering his diet of coma-slurry and Taumoeba and little else. Besides, he’s been in space for longer than anybody has been in the history of ever. That’s sure to do messed-up things to his bones and joints and mass and everything. But it doesn’t matter. He’s made peace with that. For-real made peace, because any time more is a thousand times over what he thought he’d get.
What does matter is that Rocky has no idea that there’s probably only about fifty years left in his tank.
***
Or: the average male human lifespan is 80 years. Rocky doesn't know that.

“Grace consider dating on Erid question?” Rocky asks in a tone I can’t decipher.
“What’s with the sudden interest in this topic?” I reply in lieu of answering.
“Grace avoid question question?”
“I’m not avoiding anything, bud, I’m just wondering where all of this is coming from, that’s all.” And avoiding. Definitely avoiding.
or, alternatively: rocky confesses and grace freaks out.

Summary
He clambers towards Grace in his ball and settles between his spread legs, carapace tilted with a level of pride that should not translate this well on someone with no face. “Does Grace want Rocky to put eggs inside? Want Rocky to make Grace ♪♪?”
