Fics like Braving Grace

“Careful, with that kind of language you’re gonna start a space war.” “I am being kind.” Rocky deadpans, and now I’m really grinning. I’m sure it’s the most shit eating grin I’ve worn in the past few weeks, and my chest feels a little lighter. “Pfff, you know humans would beat you in a space war anyway.” “Yes. You would drown us.” I can’t hold back the laughter that shakes my belly as Rocky sits there with his arms crossed—another habit he’s picked up from me—pretending not to be amused. The laughter feels warm, it feels earned. Maybe everything will work out. Maybe it was just one bad dream. Maybe I’m not a coward. Maybe it will all be alright. Bang! The laughter in my throat catches. The lights flicker. An alarm blares from the cockpit. Ah. Jinxed it. **** Grace never really had time to process a lot of the memories that returned in the midst of their world-saving mission. Now, with him and Rocky on the long haul back to Erid together, problems are making themselves known. He's not a coward, and he'll do anything to prove it.
