Quack!

prepare ye.

If you EVER think Anthony Head is anything less than an angel then you’d best remember that I have always been a huge fan of his and we’ve always had a little contact over the years and he heard I’d come out as Trans and was having a hard time and that I was kind of sad that the photos I had from conventions with him were of me with long hair and no binder and they were all signed to “Sarah” and so he invited me to spend the day with him at his farm and he picked me up from the station and we just hung out and had lunch and he insisted on paying and took loads of photos and had them printed on photo paper the same day so he could sign them to Jay, along with other photos of him as Giles and Uther and he literally spent five hours chatting with me and got all of the pronoun stuff right every time and then he dropped me off at the station, gave me a final massive hug, waved me through the ticket barrier and insisted I message him when I got home so he knew I got back safe.

my personal take on the matter

why would you ask us, a narnia blog, this

Me: OMG THE SPACESHIP IS A CHARACTER

Except in this one scene. She tears Grace apart, she lies to him to make it hurt more, because she's furious with him. Because he's disappointed her so profoundly. Because he couldn't do the right thing, and now she has to tear her heart out of her chest to do it for him. If he had only been brave enough to do the right thing, she could have said goodbye. Her last memory of her best friend could have been of somber solidarity, of pride in their shared purpose. But no. And now she has to live with the memory of him begging her for his life instead. She has to remember telling him no.

YES EXACTLY THIS THANK YOU

I want to give them all a hug. I need this movie injected into my blood

This book is a Baroque painting

The clicher for me tho is Annie. Grace has this huge fanboy nerd crush on Annie Shapiro, one of the crew candidates. Like, almost faints when he realises it's the Doctor Shapiro, and is so offended she's Stratt's second choice instead of her first. This is relevent because the Doctor Shapiro is an attractive woman around Grace's age, and he shows no sign of noticing. Nada, zip. She and the other science candidate openly discuss their (very active) sex life in front of him, and he reacts like they've disclosed an embarrassing medical condition.

Nothing to do with Grace personally, but absolutely contributes to the overall vibe imo
