"Grace and Rocky saved two planets of intelligent life." Yeah, so did Eva Stratt btw. Do you know how much caffeine that woman must've been on to get major power on earth to coordinate, to organize the world's first interstellar spaceship in just FOUR years, and you know,,, to tie her best friend to the train tracks and blast him to space. Yeah Grace and Rocky did all that. But holy shit Stratt did all that too.
Rocky's xenonite creations in the book
Rocky's xenonite creations in the movie
The "Stratt downloaded all of human media and knowledge onto the laptops on the Hail Mary" always breaks my suspension of disbelief if I think about it too hard... NOT because of the physical limitations of data storage, (though that, too) but because of trying to imagine the poor programmer/software engineer/whatever tf whose job it was to make that happen...
like not only to download everything we've ever made WITHOUT duplicates!!! (and what even counts as a duplicate? translations, international releases, newer versions of something edited to reflect recent discoveries, every version of star wars that George Lucas ever crafted...) BUT to then make them accessible and browsable to the astronauts? To tag them with search terms? Organize a digital library that the team can peruse???
Like, you can point an algorithm at something and say, "copy everything in that folder," no problem! But then to do the same with hundreds, thousands, millions of folders, and then still end up with a result that's navigable? Genuinely unimaginable to me!! It would have literally had to have been its own entire branch of Project Hail Mary.
But I try to be cool about it bc I do think Grace and Rocky deserve to have access to every movie and TV show ever made π₯°
I love how Grace was staring at Dubois and Shapiro and immediately leaves to talk to Stratt like "do you get the whole romance thing people have going on" and they have an indirect conversation implying that no she doesnt get it either but some people do and then they rejoin the party

I love the PHM shipping scene because it all makes sense to me. The fandom passes Grace around like a joint and I'm always like "yeah that checks out." Ship him with the woman, the man, the rock, markiplier, no one. I'm here for it! I love Grace as a hopeless romantic and I love him as completely disinterested arograce. And I love like every single character, there is not one of them I dislike, so practically all the content appeals to me. I am at a buffet and I'll eat all of it
Eva Stratt is truly not mysterious, sure she seems that way, but not because she wants that, but simply because no one bothered to ask her anything about herself. When Grace asked something personal she answers, both in the book and the movie. For example she tells him in the book about how she studied history and also talks about her going to go to jail, and in the movie she tells him about the youth choir she was in.
i think grace's middle school instincts are part of the reason why he fails to clock how important he is for the mission & that he's stratt's second in command.
like he's so used to his commands being somewhat followed and can control a room full of people speaking over each other with ease. maybe he even uses the damn bean bag when it gets really bad and stratt looks like she's about to start throwing knives instead of glances.
they're casually strolling back her office, and he yells "dr. sama, no running" and every single person in their immediate vicinity slows down significantly. grace doesn't skip a beat in his monologue and eva is watching it unfold with amusement, and warmth settles in her chest.
i love like every single way for how he finds out about his power tm, literally cannot get enough of it. yet another scenario coming to mind is them in her office, doing paperwork.
large stacks piled everywhere, though he gets through his smaller one a lot quicker. (he's sitting on the floor because it's comfortable and she kinda enjoy being able to look down at him without having to be wary of being caught)
"maybe i should just learn how to forge your signature so i can help out," he jokes, casually.
and she just keeps writing while saying, "your signature is quite literally as good as mine, so get to it then".
"pff, yeah right, nice try."
"i'm not joking."
"...what?"
a very long conversation ensues and by the end, grace gets to experience the horrors of eva's paperwork for himself.

Iβm like 85% through reading project Hail Mary and itβs pissing me off the way so much of the fan content Iβm seeing makes rocky out to be this β¨uwu donβt know big word goodπ₯° hehe must ask grace what he tongue is πβ¨ kind of cute pet when heβs a crazy intelligent engineer that is overwhelmingly smart?? Thereβs a metaphor about how English speakers treat immigrants in here

I had an entire backstory for pre-canon Rocky and Adrian, how they met, their love story, etc.etc. Then I saw the cameo where James Ortiz said they had an arranged marriage that worked out and threw it all out the window WELP. Anyways, here's their first arranged meeting :)

he must have some sort of condition
Bosses and Coworkers: you've got a great work ethic, going above and beyond
Me: I am literally just doing my job. Everyone else is slacking off.
Everyone Else: (magically knows somehow the secret amounts of work the boss is actually asking of them, which the boss cannot tell anyone for Reasons)
There always seems to be a gap in instructions (from bosses, parents, teachers, friends, whoever) between 'required' and 'expected', and this gap is:
invisible
never explained
always a different size
you have to guess the size
if you guess wrong you either get Praised or In Trouble
At least on 'the price is right' you know (because someone *actually told you*) that you are playing a guessing game and that there is an over/under mechanic and that the conquence of guessing wrong isn't a punishment or damaged relationship or getting fired
On an unrelated note my psychiatrist has given me a referal for a formal ASD evaluation
This post is about the neurodivergent frustration of having to deal with neurotypical authority figures who don't say what they mean but I love the pro-union labor-rights energy I'm seeing in the notes
