#sky imagry

BUT! Might I offer Robert=sky? Obviously, there’s his nickname “blue,” and though the sky can be many colors, it’s usually equated with blue first and foremost

And then there’s what the sky is. It’s protection from radiation, from meteors, from whatever else might be in space. Now, you can argue about that being the atmosphere, but the “sky” is a representation of the atmosphere, a visible manifestation of it, so let’s leave that semantic alone

It is also a provider. As I implied, it regulates the sun, and it also allows for rain and snow. And though it does facilitate terrible storms, too, we can chalk that up to the ferocity Robert shows towards enemies

It’s often been equated to a blanket, and that’s true, but it also gives space to those down below. It’s not oppressive. It’s changing but constant, just like our boy Robert who grows and adapts throughout the story but is always there

The sky represents possibilities. Humans have always looked to the sky for guidance. Some yearned to reach it, some wanted to go further beyond—all because the sky presented itself as a challenge

And if you push through the sky, it gets colder and colder. If you manage to get past that, you’re in a void of darkness… but one illuminated by stars and populated by so many celestial bodies
