my ex-boyfriend once described me as "somehow both aloof and cold but also super cutesy at the same time" and to this day, it's still my favorite description of myself. take this to heart. i'm a friendly guy but holding a conversation is the bane of my existence. i'm an ace lesbian, polyamorous, nonbinary (bigender/genderfluid), and i love neopronouns (especially kit/kits). i'm also white and live in the united states
for tagging spoilers - for weekly/episodic shows/podcasts/etc, i only tag spoilers for the most recent episode. if its a big plot event, like a character death, i give it an extra episode or two afterwards with spoiler tags. for books, i generally dont tag spoilers, and for movies, i tag spoilers for about a month after it comes out. i always tag with the format of "[x] spoilers", and usually will shorten the media title down to an acronym (i.e., fantasy high: junior year spoilers = "fhjy spoilers")
as stated, i do not have a dni, and anyone can follow me. this account is generally sfw, but i do reblog/post suggestive content or sexually intended art from time to time. if anything feels too borderline for me, i will tag it as "nsfw", and i request that minors don't interact with those posts. i try to tag nudity as well as common triggers, but i don't have great memory, so things slip through the cracks
i'm fine with being teased, flirted with, etc, and i tend to hit on a variety of my mutuals around my age. if i fall under your dni but you interact with me first, i will interact back, please be aware of this! i try to respond to everything in good faith, but if i get an ask that is blatantly just hate mail or bait, i will just pretend that you are asking for rap music recommendations and proceed accordingly. because i like excuses to talk about rap. also stop asking me if i'm a pro-shipper or an anti-shipper, i write real person fiction, do you think i really care LOL assume i am whatever will piss you off worse
current interests: oxventure, doctor who (especially 5 and 11 my pookies), brockhampton/kevin abstract, party crashers, hermitcraft
forever/long term interests: my little pony, pokémon, warrior cats, all for the game, mcyt (esp 2010s mcyt)

What everyone at the Vat who believe Grace and Stratt are knocking boots fail to notice that Carl and Grace use the same aftershave and body wash or how they always seem take their breaks at the same time.

[ID: A two panel comic of Agent Carl and Ryland Grace from Project Hail Mary in the car together, Carl driving as Grace relaxes against the windowsill. Carl says "I must've been about eight- I got gifted a little microscope kit. Came with all the little slides to look at. I thought it was the coolest thing ever". Grace responds "That's just adorable". Carl asks "How about you? You're a biologist, how'd you get into science?" Grace, flushed, says "... I got a microscope kit as a gift." Carl responds "Ah." End ID]
Carl post Hail Mary launch clutching one of Ryland's stupid shirts they accidentally left behind, apologising because he knows he was the last thing Grace ever saw on Earth. When he remembers he might remember Carl as the man who sent him.
It's twenty five years later, the shirt is sewn into little accessories. Pocket handkerchief, little fabric covered buttons, maybe a little fox plushie. The beetles come back, and Eva deposits a box to his home. Inside is a video and a gift wrapped box, quite obviously wrapped in several sheets of standard letter paper.
The video is all of the time Grace mentioned Carl during his science rambles, even momentarily. There's at least two videos addressed to Carl.
One is a compilation of non-mission related times he talks about Carl. "He was nice" "I could never tell if he loved Skittles, or tolerated them for me" "Carl if you ever see this, I'm still getting my memories back but I just got the sentence "We're father's Carl" back. Are we!? I don't think I'm gay... I COULD BE." "Carl I'm so sorry I just got the rest of that last memory"
Second is a video from Grace just about to leave for Rocky, addressed directly to him on the duct tape around the usb stick. Carl doesn't watch it yet. He couldn't.
So he opens the gift instead. Inside, is a package of unopened Skittles labeled "Space Skittles :)", and a proper paper on Astrophage breeding "Co-written by Dr Ryland Grace, and Mr Carl Bodyguard." There's an apology for not knowing his last name.
The paper is published with Carl as the co-writer, and he hangs the one with the "Mr Bodyguard" on his wall in a frame. Maybe one day he'll watch the second tape, but for now, he's alright not knowing. He does eat the Skittles though.
Astrofathers option...
Kissing the shirt, even though Grace admitted to him that he doesn't really know what romance feels like. It's one sided, he knows that, but Grace is gone, and Carl is the last thing he saw, so how much more harm can it do?
Has anyone made Carl x Grace angst where Carl realises months or maybe even years after Grace is launched that "Oh. Fuck. I loved him." But it's too late and the last memory one of the people he genuinely loved and wanted to spend forever with is of him standing over top of him while he's sedated and kidnapped.
Because of not that's wasted potential and I need to start writing for my boy Carl and I also give full permission to anyone ever to write this because Carl is my underrated king we need #morecarl

Imagine Ryland and Carl are out walking around San Francisco when they happen to run into a group of Ryland's students. They stop for a moment to chat, and then one of the kids looks at Carl and asks, completely out of nowhere and with no filter: "Are you Mr. Grace's husband?" Ryland nearly chokes on his own spit. Carl doesn't miss a beat and just says: "Working on it."
The students think this is hilarious and immediately decide that their science teacher has the coolest boyfriend ever. Ryland spends the rest of the day pondering whether that was basically a proposal.
I have a headcanon that the Skittles and Twizzlers on board The Hail Mary were put there per Carl's request.
Just the mental image of Carl watching Grace get transported after being sedated. A man, who prior to that moment, his most vivid memory consists of them finding world changing discoveries with plywood, duck tape, and copious amounts of sour skittles. A man who he associates with the exhilarating feeling of wonder and life. A teacher teaching, a scientist finding, a man living.
But suddenly, that's not his most vivid memory. Suddenly, what first comes to mind when he thinks of Dr. Ryland Grace is the image of him running away, of chasing him through the compound, of the look on his face when they do inevitably catch up to him. He can't hear the excited laughter of the previous memories without them eliciting the desperate pleas for life.
I wonder if he ever gets to see the videos. How would he feel if he knew that his name was the first one that Grace remembers. Foggy like the thing he misses most about earth.
Genuinely, can't stop thinking about how his name is Carl, like the fog that covers San Francisco is named Karl, and Grace misses the fog. I'm gonna be ill.
