the beginning of chapter 25 does unspeakable (aroace still) things to 🌑.
this bloody metaphor. no need to cut you open to love someone enough to die for them, silly.

disarmed
(based on the idea by @ otterlouroux on bsky:
knives humming a song while resting in the piano room, and legato listening to him, sitting on the floor by the door. hearing his master's voice soothes him, he can't think of anything more beautiful than this voice)

this fandom has a tendency to repeatedly post about the same things (fanons, questions, canon details). we are highly likely to contribute to these ripples in the void. anyways!
Carl. and why there are very few users who ship Grace with him, romantically or not, a possible reason.
a disclaimer: we aren't POC by US standards at least, we live in another big rotten empire and we don't think that any sort of murder is the best conflict solution.
tl;dr: Carl is an interesting side character, but we cannot sympathise with him.
never have i ever thought that i'd ever see trigun fanart where The Couch isn't meant to be followed with burial immediately.
holy shit, orange folks, what have you done (will find out in two days i think)
as we don't get jokes about swearing in a language that's not someone's native and enjoy making up fictional language structures, idioms and shit since probably thirteen, here is (probably existing already) a couple of probable Eridian insults (if it's one language, not many like on Earth)
approximate translation: "smooth".
meanings: "someone who hasn't experienced basics of life/unreliable and not caring about connections properly/boring, monotone, unnoticeable/lacking personality".
obscenity: mild mostly, depends on the situation.
usage: imagine one of the elder Eridians who know Rocky and Adrian since they hatched listening to something Grace tells and going righteously angry, because Grace didn't live his life on Erid, as an Eridian, and doesn't have the experience required to understand or teach. if we tried to adapt the exchange like Rocky's communication with Grace, it would be probably something like this. "Grace smooth. Statement". "Not true. Grace rugged, you hear Grace limbs. Space scars equal Erid scars. Statement".
and a worse one (don't read aloud to any pebble)
approximate translation: "like meal time"
meanings: ooooh it depends. movie!Eridian would be like simply "gross, necessary but absolutely not a good thing to witness". while book!Eridian would be "can't stand hearing/don't want you in here/better no one hear you/get lost"
obscenity: very high
usage: a situation when someone feels utter disgust or is absolutely done with someone's behaviour/actions/worldview and doesn't want to hear them anymore
..if anyone wants to add something or we should go and read the documents in that google drive folder, feel free to reblog/message

the presumably progressive metalcore band AU that lives inside our head.
we didn't get long haired resurrected Knives in Stargaze, at least he's here (main composer, also has his own progressive rock project) - and Legato (of course vocals and lyrics)
Legato would probably be cancelled by the male fans of the band if they find out he kills people. child traffickers and the men who pay for children, but, y'know, go to therapy shite.
and yes, he has a blade feather tattoo on his neck. only Knives knows why.

a couple of eepy thots again. tumblr dumpstr, yep
the saddest part about canon being canon is that Eridians, having their carapace and limbs consist of mostly hematite, don't differ in colour as much as the big part of the fandom imagines them.
if Grace came back to Earth with Rocky or any other Eridian fellow (more like with a crew of fourteen at least?, Stratt, if she was still alive and aware of what was happening around, would've done anything to protect them all. she could say whatever shite she needed to Grace when he refused to go, but she would've never deliberately let anyone hurt either his kids or his friends. (she's a friend of Grace too, but that's another story)
another rewatch note
EVA FRAKIN STRATT THANK YOU FOR ONE MORE FAVOURITE FICTIONAL WOMAN
and thank Sandra Hüller making her less of steel and more of soft flesh, because the "strong woman" stereotype is bullshit.
this film is still fresh air ashore the ocean, one step from an old, old pine forest. or probably sequoia. you'll never know.
upd: the karaoke scene was absolutely necessary. Stratt doesn't allow herself hesitate to make iceberg melting decisions, yet she isn't sure if it's alright to sing, why should she. and, although we more relate to Grace sitting at the counter and watching fondly as his could-be-friend is shining like the Sun itself, we understand her, too.
