    Summary

    In linguistics, a false friend is a word in a different language that sounds similar to a word in your own, but differs significantly in meaning. No word in any Eridian language could possibly be mistaken for English. But Erid absolutely has false friends.

    In his right mind, Grace would easily identify the mistaken assumptions inhibiting his integration on Erid. They are:

    1: A molecular biologist and a sapient rock can cobble together translation software that reflects the etymological nuance of an entire alien language.
    2: Eridians are enough like humans to have an area 51 and look forward to using it.

    Unfortunately, Grace hasn’t been in his right mind in years.

    Or: a ‘Return to Erid’ story where Grace struggles to touch down alone.

    Summary

    I flex my gloved fingers.

    “Just how much power are you giving me, exactly?”

    “All of it. Everything.”

    “Wow, that's. Wow. Are you sure?”

    Rocky makes a keening, high pitched vocalisation that I can feel in my chest.

    “I love you. It's the entire point.”

    I bury my blazing face in my hands.

    “Rocky, you can't just say things like that.”

    “I can and I will. Where does the medical robot keep the lubricant?”
