Your Hail Mary AMA fic is genuinely one of the best pieces of literature I've read in a hot second. It has such a great understanding of internet culture and it's such a natural feeling extension of the source material. Getting the notif that a new chapter dropped really makes my day!

I am obsessed with your AMA fic thank you so much

question about “culture shock” (which I loved btw): Grace says that Adrian’s skin is very different from Rocky’s, smoother and darker, and later in that scene he mentions that “Rocky’s triple repetition was part of a regional dialect”. am I weird for assuming that Rocky and Adrian’s different ways of speaking bc of their hometowns is likely related to those different colors? and was that intentional, or just a coincidence? bc the idea of Eridian “ethnicities” (for lack of a better term) having cultural differences is really cool; keeps it from becoming a Planet of Hats
