🍉 Eating the walls 🍉

Watch carefully, it's subtle.

I literally just spent 2 minutes with my head on my desk weeping with laughter holy shit

Good point, as a side note we also have the option to have it end on Yuri day

I'd suggest International Women's Day (March 8th)

when rocky lets grace loose in the biodome for the first time do u think he near immediately fell to his knees and sobbed, grabbing fistfuls of sand/dirt to prove to himself that he’s not dreaming, or do u think thousands of years of evolution hit him like a freight train and he took off running before he knew what he was doing, as fast and as far as he could, to prove to himself that he could

eva stratt genuinely makes me froth at the mouth what do u mean she has to hold herself back from the very people she wants so desperately to save what do u mean she makes herself less human in some ways so she can save all of humanity what do u mean she stays strong and never cracks because if she breaks then so does everyone else and that cannot happen what do u mean when she lets down her walls just a little bit for one man she ends up having to send him to his death what do u mean she's the world's whipping boy what do u mean she's going to jail for the rest of her life all because she did what she had to do to save all of humanity and what do u mean she was right the whole time. and that the project she sold her soul and humanity to, that she gave all of herself to, succeeded. what do u mean it was all worth it.

imagine your last memory of earth being violent imagine the last human touch u remember being someone pushing u to the ground imagine the last time u feel the sun on ur face or dirt under ur hands is when ur clawing at the ground desperate and terrified to stay on earth ryland grace if i think about u too long i feel physically SICK

nobody ever talks about the terrible fanfic epidemic of "they would NOT confess their love so openly and poetically as that."

big amatonormativity wants you to accept this as the norm but this is not how it has to be. we can push for consistent characterization in expressions of connection and affection. those characters could just kiss and not declare their undying love about it

reading this post back and realizing that i didn't get to my real point which is that maybe those guys shouldn't say that they're in love at all. i want you to look me in the eyes and tell me that you earnestly believe those guys would say "i love you". it doesn't have to be this way

sometimes as a treat i like to imagine grace, a handful of years into his journey to erid, starving and depressed, deep into zoochosis (despite rocky's best efforts), so touch-starved he can hardly breathe, feeling the dread pushing in, and hallucinating yao and ilyukhina watching him - first from the other side of the ship, but as time goes on they inch closer, creeping across the hail mary. he knows they aren't real - rocky doesn't react to them at all. but when rocky sleeps they're his only company and he talks to them, pleads with them, tells them he's so so so sorry that he couldn't save them, that he didn't remember them, that he couldn't get them home. they're a crew through and through despite it all, three ghosts in the void, one slightly more alive than the others

hey guys remember in the movie when grace is explaining to stratt why he doesn’t wanna go and she calls the doctor in and grace starts laughing a little and sniffling and being like ‘haha come on, you don’t gotta do this’ because i think about that all the time

unfortunately i do think i'm going to be haunted forever by the image of ryland grace clawing at the earth juxtaposed by the image of him on erid scooping up a fistful of sand

No but like before I watched Project Hail Mary I’d occasionally see fanart and it made me wonder when the dude with long black hair was going to show up and why were people shipping him with Grace but he didn’t show up and I was very confused and yesterday it finally dawned on me it was Markiplier all along you fucks!?

grace getting a funeral procession rather than a hero’s send off will never not tear me to pieces

do u think at some point during the voyage to erid grace found yao’s gun and was like ‘oh that. hmm i’ll just put it way up here and forget about it’ and then way way way later when he’s severely depressed and riddled with starvation-induced disease(s) he thinks about the gun with a sort of wistfulness because he’s so exhausted but he could never do that to rocky
