Fics like a deconstruction of boundaries

“Grace can feel song, question?” Rocky asked, slower than usual. The cooing had lulled him, too. “I… Maybe? Yeah,” Grace whispered, and Rocky had to focus to understand the slurring. “Humans can feel sound, question?” Grace huffed a small laugh. “Sometimes, yeah. For example, when the sound is… very low and loud, we can feel it in our chests.” “Song is neither low nor loud.” That would have an entirely different effect. “I know. I can still feel it, I think. It’s strange.” “Good strange, question?” “Good strange, yeah.” Grace could feel sound. Grace could feel Rocky’s songs. Hmm. Rocky discovers nature's laws aren't as inflexible as they'd thought. He puts this to good use.
