I have a folder of these on my phone... I'm not sure what that says about me!

Eridians are further behind than humans technologically right? They dont have computers, relativity, quantum mechanics, etc. In fact, Eridians probably dont even know about the Big Bang because their atmosphere would filter out most of the cosmic microwave background radiation we use to detect it. On a human timeline, theyre anywhere between like early-mid 20th century. Rocky's basically a cosmonaut.

So the human civilization is pretty advanced from Rocky's perspective. Rationally he understands this. On a conceptual level he knows this to be true.

Like imagine being a modern day sailor navigating the Pacific with GPS and strong hulls to protect against the raging ocean. And from portside you see like an honest to god viking ship. Except its made of some high tech carbon fiber material. But like, its still very definitely a viking ship. You can clearly see there's 24 oars along the hull where sailors are supposed to use to manually row their ship. Also the ship is leaking and theres like one little dude on board whos skittering around patching the holes constantly. Also this little dude is blind and doesnt know about water. Thats how insane Eridians look being an interstellar species without computers or radiation shielding.

éowyn pretended to be dernhelm, a man. to fit in, she must have worn men’s armor. so the armor in the illustrations is normal for rohirrim.

therefore, all the rohirrim rode to war just like that:

male or female

hero or villain

sea or land

even in the snow

And the Stellar's sea lion, which are WAY bigger and live in Washington, British Columbia, and Alaska

they had twelve years of constant letter exchanges, sometimes writing each other daily

they wrote a book basically just tearing a bunch of other poets writing apart together

they considered each other their only equal

they said they couldn't tell apart who's thought and ideas belonged to who anymore

they requested to be buried together

when one of them died the other knew instinctively, eventhough no one had dared to tell him

He then proceeded to steal his dead buddies skull, kept it on a pillow of velvet in his room and didn't allow anybody else to even see it (which he also wrote a poem about)
