history is a little man in a brown suit

The first time they have to use it (over something stupid like a tiny ammonia leak), Grace wakes up to like three different foghorns and a hundred camera flashes going off at once and is like HOLY GEEZ THE APOCALYPSE IS UPON US

RIP Rocky’s project

#he said I’m ok with being a himbo (x)

#Jinwoo absolutely refusing to increase his intelligence stat until it leads to dire fucking circumstances #is the funniest thing #dumbest bitch alive and he LIKES it that way (x)

#he was MANIFESTING the himbo energy with all his might (x)

#he wants to stay an idiot your honor #but the world forced him to become smart #man just wanted to be a himbo 😔 (x)

#chat we might have to think for this one (x)

#i think it was double funny he didn’t do this #bc his intro as a character shows him being the smartest bitch around #what do you MEAN you’re PURPOSEFULLY not updating one star (x)

#honestly so real of him (x)

#me watching the the first episodes of the anime: stop only buffing strenght!!! stop it!!!! jinwoo!!!!!!!!!!! (x)

#i do love that he's a self-made himbo (x)

#he literally complains about being an intelligence class #because he refused to put points in #“if I can stab things well why do I have to think” (x)

STACKEDNATURAL ⇉ 258.5/327 (part 1)

I don’t think the movie ever clarified it, but she gave him that amnesia intentionally to ensure he wouldn’t sabotage the mission (which he threatened to do, by the way). She was relying on there being two other people around to get him up to speed. And instead she finds out he was all alone, from the start, with no idea why, lacking the support he needed to save the world. Did she have a moment of thinking all those logs he sent wouldn’t contain the solution at all, but just be the diary of a spiraling man losing his mind in space?

Guy who watched 5 Hail Mary video logs: comments like that belie a narrow, heteronormative view of relationships. Dr. Grace and Rocky’s bond is something that likely transcends baser human categories like “sexual” or “romantic”. Either way, all this speculation on the nature of their relationship takes away from more important conversations about Dr. Grace’s contributions-

like. imagine you are grace. you have a life you enjoy where you get to teach kids you’re fond of about a subject you love. you’ve been hanging out with your friend marissa weekly for years (!) and you have a lot of peers on project hail mary who you respect and even have fun with. but! you’re also like 40, and you know how the world works - at the end of the day, at the end of the project, all of those people will go back to their parents and families and partners. the people whose names are on their emergency contact forms and birth certificates and marriage licenses and apartment leases. no matter how much you care about them, and no matter how much they care about you, there is always someone else in their life who is Above you, and Before you, because That’s How The World Works.

so like… yeah. lmao. aroace grace not opening himself up all the way because he anticipates pain and wants to avoid that is a kind of protective hedging that i find very likely for him to engage in? even if he opens himself up to the people around him, the fact is that most of those people will only reciprocate to whatever degree they/society deem acceptable for friendship, even if they like him a lot.
