prism's parental situation
My only contribution to this ship before I disappear for another month
happy pride to the gay people in my computer <3
i have bloodymary brainrot, and my head is chock-full of g/t worms. here's the brainstorming process for my latest fic idea (and a scene i wrote):
---
Grace is a borrower that survived the Quiet Rapture. He can do a little bit of everything, but is mostly tasked with electrical work (jobs that need somebody small). He was supposed to be doing repairs to the SM-13 inside the control console, but he fell and hit his head. They don't check on him before sending Simon down, forgetting or assuming that Grace got out (RIP bozo. wear a helmet next time) (Ava is pissed when she finds out and starts yelling at her coworkers)
Grace is unconscious for a while; 20+ minutes. It's a mild concussion, and it leaves him woozy and flustered. Grace wakes up either before or after the people topside bring the SM-13 back to the surface to add The Claw (not sure which)
- Either Grace wakes up BEFORE, and once they're docked, both Grace and Simon confront Ava about getting him (them) out. Ava is distressed, but she can't do that; they're welded inside and there isn't time. Simon tells her, "Look at him! All he needs is a crack. Is that so hard to do?! You can't even be fucking bothered. You're sending both of us to die, and HE-" Simon's voice cracks; he's thinking of himself, too, when he says, "He hasn't even done anything!"
- OR, Grace wakes up AFTER Simon is sent down to get a sample from the skeleton. The rover dropping so aggressively wakes him up, but he doesn't emerge until after Simon sees the 'phantom' (himself) (phantom gives credence to Grace being a hallucination) (also, it adds to Simon's loneliness and he can be all angsty about another soul sent down to die with him) (Simon can't admit that he's glad Grace is here) (because that's fucked up) (he'll probably say it anyway)
- Alternatively, Grace fell asleep while working on the SM-13 like a DUMMY (because what the fic requires is a long time for someone to pass out without brain damage) (his brains are simply scrambled)
- Secret fourth option: Grace hit his head, passed out, regained consciousness, and THEN fell asleep when he couldn't find his way out

THE DISCOVERY (draft):
Simon hears little scratching sounds inside the control console, so he kneels down to investigate - and notices a seam on the side. He sees a screw turning. Sure that he's going crazy, Simon pinches the screw between his fingers and twists it loose, then the other screw when it starts wiggling, too. Simon swears he hears a voice - quiet or distant - and he looks to the speaker. But it's coming from the panel he loosened.
The panel creaks open, and a small man crawls out. He is dusty. He's wearing glasses with lenses that are way too big; the glasses are lopsided, one strap not even behind his ear. He's saying, "-really uncool of you guys to lock me in... there..."
He freezes when he notices Simon.
"Uh," says the tiny hallucination, "h-hello, there! You must be the new guy! Big guy... I'm- well, I'm- I guess, kiinda the electrician? I'm nobody, really. You can just... pretend I'm not even here! I'll get outta your way. Oh, do you have the time?"
"Um," Simon says, his eyes bulging out of their sockets.
"Oh, right." Grace straightens his glasses and dusts off his sweater. He waves. "So, hi! I'm, uh, a borrower. We're still sssort of a secret? But ever since-" Grace gestures, drawing vague shapes in the air. "Y'know... the humans have been hunting us down, making us work for the Consolidation. There's... not many of us. Gotta earn my food, now, heh." Grace looks around. He notices that one oxygen bar is down. He points at it. "That, um. That's not... supposed to be like that. What time is it? Is- is the rover ready for descent, soon?"
Oh, no, Simon thought. A spike of dread plunged into his belly.
"You're not s'posed to be here," Simon says quietly. He sat back. The little man watched him warily.
Grace says, "N- no. Well, yes! I'm a fixer-upper. I just... kinda hit my head? I don't know how long it's been... where I am..." Grace looks at the unlit oxygen bar again. Then, he noticed the closed porthole. Grace becomes a bit more frantic. He asks, "Where are we?"
Simon exhales. He glances away, then back at the borrower. The impossible little man is still there. Simon says, "Bottom of a blood ocean."
The little man laughs. It's the fakest sound, strained and desperate - and also the first laugh Simon has heard in a long, long time. "Ha! Haha! Good joke! Good one. That's- ah, heh, that's..." Grace trails off. Simon is dead serious. Grace gets a lot more frantic. "Please say you're joking. Tell me they didn't launch." Simon can't look at him anymore. Grace begs, "Please tell me they didn't forget about me!"
"I'm sorry," Simon croaks.

more notes:
Grace is fascinated by the blood ocean. He wants to study it, but doesn't have any tools; just his big ol' glasses, which he moves forward and back from his face (nothing happens)
Grace has uncooked noodle bits in his bag as a snack. He offers some to Simon, and Simon scoffs out a laugh. Simon says, "You keep it. It'll be a waste on me."
Simon isn't 100% convinced Grace is real until they touch.
At some point, one of Grace's lenses crack; it mirrors the fracture in the porthole and the pendant (with the seedling inside)

Rocky finding cat memes to compare his leaky space blobs to.
Also detailed image of simon after being dropped in the soup :)
A few more decades
[part 1] [part 2]
rocky learns about the Denmark incident :]
Something something two men who just want to live, sent to die alone in space, one in blood, the other in star-eating goop. My Patron Saints of One-Way Trips, they mean so much to me... I spent so many hours (21) on this, send help-
It’s so important to me that he says “Dr. Captain Ryland Grace” when sending the Beatles back to Earth. Because the Hail Mary was made for a Captain, a Scientist, and an Engineer. And Grace only claims the Captain and Scientist parts. Because Rocky is the Engineer! Rocky is the Hail Mary’s Engineer!!!

[Description: a looping bouncy animation of grace and Rocky from project hail mary. Grace throws himself onto rocky for a hug, smiling and nuzzling his face to the top of Rocky's xenonite covered carapace. Rocky brings a claw up to ruffle Grace's hair and grace throws himself even more on top of rocky, rocky wrapping his arms around grace. End description.]
sucks when a show's protagonist is stupid but the narrative doesn't realize it
an unintelligent protagonist is fine, normal even. but if the writers think that dumb guy is smart? whoof. hard to watch
