grace essentially proposing a dozen times in eridian culture and rocky is sweating like "does he know what hes doing or am i fumbling BAD rn"

One time when my dad was in the hospital they were testing his orientation to time and place and said "Okay and what year is it?" and he said "1995" (he had dementia). And the doctor and I unconsciously exchanged a Look because it was in fact uhhh 2024 😐 and dad saw that and so when the next doctor did the test a few hours later he said "uhhhh...nineteen...nintetyyyy.......seven...???" and I was like okay, well, that IS closer, you do have to give him that

#he still knew immediately who I was which was deeply funny to me bc I was 7-8 years old in 1997 #"yes that is my daughter who was apparently born in her 20s"

we're moving to an internet where children would be banned from reaching out for help and friendship online but abusive parents can post their children's every second online to humiliate and expose them for money with no pushback

Grace who can only recreate a few Eridian words and who is so excited he is able to say the everyday version of Adrian's name... however, he doesn't know that that isn't Adrian's name but something akin to 'Adrian, my love', because that's what Rocky calls them. Like those toddlers who think their mom's name is honey
