    (Astrophage is killing us: U 2 ? Y? N?)
    ----
    My name was long line of clusters before me. My name was people and events that had led to my existence.
    -----
    I suddenly felt less bad about labeling him “sun-warmth.” Food? Why did his parent hate him so much that he would give him such disgusting name? Rye-land was like if I was named “meat-fingers.”

    And Queen again,

    “We will, we will ROCK YOU!”

    Rocky liked that one for the obvious reason of being a rock, but also because he liked stomping and clapping.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace doesn't understand why Stratt is so worried about letting him (i.e. forcing him to) speak at this UNESCO conference. Sure, the LAST time he did that wasn't exactly universally appreciated, but he'd been to hundreds of Eridian conferences since then. He's pretty sure he remembers how to present in English. The Public Speaking Extracurricular Thrum that his pebbles started would be so proud of him!

    or

    Thanks to Dr. Grace's scientific advancements both before and especially after his time travel, it would look suspicious if Stratt DIDN'T send him to the UNESCO conference to share his findings with the field. But that means letting him loose in the world for a few days. There are other people out there. Mein Gott, she can feel the headache forming already.

    Ryland Grace is over what happened to him on Earth. Yeah, it sucks, but he's made peace with it. That is, until an intruder in his biodome triggers a flashback.

    I've seen this posture before when my students play-fight with each other. It's a hunting stance.
