A Dream That's Worth Keeping

Hello, welcome. I'm a reader, writer, and librarian. Be prepared for Disney, Doctor Who, Tim Minchin, Nerdfighteria, McElroy boys and a lot of other I don't even know...

I haven't gotten to my reread yet, But I'm listening to the music and I was thinking, did Grace ever tell Rocky he never volunteered? I think it goes from him remembering to them separating in the movie, but he never tells him as far as I can recall in the book either. Maybe later on Erid he would tell him, or is it something he keeps to himself?

I've been meaning to look this up myself.

I think in the book Rocky interrupts him with some encouraging words about solving the problem together. And I think we just get a brief moment of him slumped against the wall, head in hands, in the film.

I would love to know if he did say anything. It would eat away at him every time someone called him brave, I think.

[adreamthatsworthkeeping]

It's even worse because it comes after he talks to Rocky about being good people. Surely you'd never say it after that conversation.

Waiting for over an hour in a hospital waiting room. If I go to pee they will call me, but I will sit here for another twenty minutes uncalled if I stay.

Me in a confessional: it's been 21 days since my last Project Hail Mary read.

I can see where the "eternally kind and patient Grace" interpretation is coming from, but it's so funny when you open the book and literally the first thing he thinks is "something is talking to me and it's ANNOYING".

...and then proceeds to spend the whole chapter being grumpy about gravity, of all things.

Like. At the very least, my guy is not a morning person. And that's not even mentioning the "staggering waste of carbon" of it all. He can be patient, sure, he's a teacher, but he's still human? Let him be human.

So I WAS tired and then I learned how Rocky eats in the book. In great detail. I am no longer tired. What the fuck

sometimes being a fan of something means not wanting them to make any more of it

Remember at the end of The Amber Spyglass when Lyra's last worlds were something alike "we will build the Republic of Heaven"

And then the numerous prequels/sequels had nothing to do with that.

Good night to everybody expect specifically Philip Pullman.
