hi!

im thinking about rocky in a big metal tube thats blaring a hundred uncomfortable frequencies unable to do anything due to the atmospheric differences, completely at the mercy of grace's ability to get the situation under control

like imagine you are an individual and you stumble across this alien that has the technological and scientific ability to solve the problem plaguing your people, who willingly and routinely goes out into the empty quiet nothingness of space on walks, who climbed across the hull of a space ship while it was on fire, who is now screaming at you at the top of its lungs to calm down when every animalistic urge is clawing at your insides to panic. he's never heard graces voice crack like that, his heart hammer like that, his joints strain and insides twist like that and yet he's still doing his job

“Grace says he would like half of dome to be water.”

“Oh, is necessary for humans to have large amounts of water question?”

Small Eridian equivalent of a sigh. “No. Not needed for life. In fact Grace will die if he falls in water and does not get out.”

“Tell him we give him water in containers that won't kill him. Lots lots lots of water on Erid for Grace to drink.”

“No. Grace say he want water on ground. Also want it with excess sodium chloride compound so it will be unhealthy for drink.”

WHY HAVE I SEEN NO ONE TALK ABOUT HOW THE GRACE SCULPTURE LOOKS LIKE THE LITTLE DUDE FROM THIS MEME

1. borrowing misery from future

2. carrying grief of the past
