the universe is, and we are.

ID: a digital painting of a white marble statue in the alcove of a staircase landing; green vines radiate out from the alcove, reaching towards the ceiling and trailing on the walls and floor. The statue is of a long haired woman wearing a sheet as a dress. The walls, stairs, and floor are all white marble with dark grey veining. Golden light from a window shines on the statue and plants. Water flows out from below the alcove and down the stairs. End ID.

Everyone is talking about Stratt's reaction to seeing Grace's reports about the events on the ship and meeting rocky and the astrophage problem etc but you know what's on my mind. Imagine Dr. Lamai (from the book, who designed the induced coma system) finding out that two out of three crew members died and believing it was her fault.

One of my favorite things about loving someone or developing a closeness or fondness towards someone is also loving and developing a fondness for the things they care about. When you learn to see the world in a new way, or you learn to appreciate the things you’ve previously overlooked, or they become your excuse to get into an interest you always thought was cool but thought you didn’t have time for. When a connection makes your world bigger and warmer and fuller and more beautiful.
