Now, as a successful architectural engineer happily married to the Temian woman Tehya, she has found the happiness and belonging she never could on Earth.As Vonika approaches old age, she is expected to undergo Ha-Ran, in which she will become telepathically connected to the other older adults. She starts to experience bursts of telepathic perception, even though she hasn't started Ha-Ran, and even though she's very uneasy about the change in her life it will bring.

Jumping on a Grenade: An accidental example. When Vonika tries to retrieve a gas canister hidden high above the street, she knocks it loose and falls on top of it. She's badly injured, but her body stops most of the gas from escaping. | |

The Friend Nobody Likes | |
| This Other World / int_a861560f | comment |
The Friend Nobody Likes: Bar-temah is an immigrant from Earth, like Vonika. He insists he's completely assimilated and is a true Temian at heart, but his attempts at fitting in are so aggressive and tacky that he mostly ends up alienating people. Vonika finds him annoying, but she finds herself spending time with him anyway because of their shared background. | |
