This is my story about Grace being turned into an Eridian and all the adventures that followed.

And nothing bad ever happened ever again.

You could even ask Grace and Simon to play the game with you, since it's very funny. Team bonding!

Oh, oh, oh! Sounds much fun. Rocky love human culture learning moments. Rocky will get hand on Cards Against Humanity. Rocky will play with Grace and Simon.

Could also include, like, a stupidly high pain tolerance. Ryland is used to being squishy human and having many bruises all the time. Minor injury to him is nothing, but Eridians are touch as nails. If they get a minor break in the carapace, they freak the freak out because they *don't* get little cuts or things often.

Thank you for asking! So in the PHM movie - behind the scenes - they refer to Rocky's "weird leg" as his "goat leg" (I don't know why). It's the one he uses in a "scorpion tail" position the one time he's briefly threatened (?) by Grace

It doesn't open into a proper "claw" at the end the way his "normal hands" do, but it is functional!

From the fanon perspective, I like the reading that this is Rocky's unique deformity. Maybe having 5 identical claws is considered the "norm", but he's more than capable of being the engineering mechanical genius that he is with 4 "normal" claws. I've also seen a reading that this is the "designated attack claw".

So! In the Eridian Heart AU,

Rocky has a deformed claw because he was just born like that.

Adrian has a deformed claw (theirs is curly and I totally don't keep forgetting to draw it that way on occasion) because they were just born like that.

Grace's new body happened to have one "dud" claw and it was kinda made on a short notice so they didn't have time to remake it. Aka he was just "born" like that.

They maaatch 🧡💚💛

Grace poses the least threat of the 3 with his "attack claw", but it's okay, it's not like he will ever need to use it to defend himself, or find himself threatened. ^u^

...On a brighter note he is quite fond of wagging it!

More asks, answering @mackarooon and @gendeerdeer, order up 💛

If your ask sounds like an Eridian is saying it (not by grammar, by context) and I'm feeling particularly inspired, I might turn your tumblr avatar into an Eridian stand-in for something like this. No guarantees or promises, I'm just having fun here

Freaks 💖

I love that they can just do that

if i shouldn’t use my cane because i can sometimes technically walk without it, it would just hurt like a motherfucker then abled people should no longer be allowed to use potholders to take things out of the oven because i mean

EHC as it was intended.

I like using the EWC template for this because I think it’s funny to believe that the EWC just has some nefarious doppelgängers out there who want to make sure Grace knows how much he’s hated.
