“So,” Mark clapped his hands together, a mischievous light flickering in his eyes as he proclaimed, “Most important Mark Watney tip of the night.” “You,” Mark pointed a finger directly between his eyes, where his glasses dangled awkwardly on the edge of his nose, “Need to chill the fuck out.” Grace sputtered, confused. Mark gave him a wicked grin before clarifying, “That came out wrong, you’re not an uptight asshole. Pretty far from that, actually. But, this party is for you and you deserve to let loose.” At that moment, Grace became aware of the music pulsing through the building, the same sound he’d tried to tune out. Grace wasn’t sure if he recognized the song but it was clear Mark was very familiar with it, as he started to sway. It managed to click in Grace’s brain what Mark was implying and he very quickly began voicing his complaints, “Mark, no, you don’t understand. I’m terrible-“ “Nope, nope,” Mark started swaying in Grace’s direction, “Not gonna hear it. I know you got it in you.” Grace protested, “I know how to dance, I just suck!” “Who cares?” Or, Grace is overwhelmed after returning to Earth, but luckily, Mark Watney is there to help cheer him up.
