How the internet basically describes Rocky and Adrian:
I love love LOVE a platonic relationship between Rocky and Grace where neither of them are normal about each other.
They’re best friends but by both Earth and Eridian standards everyone is like “Oh wow, they’re… close-”
Like little to no cares about privacy around each other because, well, fuck you aren’t getting much of that on a spaceship for multiple years now are you?
Wherever one goes there’s a 50% chance the other will be there too.
Whenever Grace talks to another Eridian he uses some sort of portable instrument to communicate but with Rocky they just speak in two separate languages at each other. It’s like seeing someone speak to someone in only Chinese and the other person only responds back in English.
Would be funny if Eridians aren’t very touchy but Rocky is basically clingy as fuck when it comes to Grace. Always tugging on his pants like a toddler to get his attention and stuff.
Grace just using Rocky in either his ball, enclosure or his xenonite suit as a backrest while he’s grading or doing work or something, Rocky fully absorbed in his own thing. Sitting as close together as physically possible while having zero interaction with each other. Parallel play at it’s best.
These two come in a pair. Do not separate.
All of this and more, fully platonically, people wonder if they’re the world’s first weird inter solar system couple and if they’re in some weird polycule with Adrian but no, they’re just like that.
It’s just Rocky and the human he adopted as a permanent part of his family that he will spend every possible second of the rest of his short life with because he won’t be here forever and he’s not going to waste any of his time for the world.
Also Adrian still loves Rocky and isn’t quite as close to Grace as he is but is also very fond of the weird awkward alien their mate brought home because Grace is Rocky’s family and that makes Grace Adrian’s family too.
Ironlung and Project Hail Mary both are based on the idea of sin and absolution. Each placing Grace and Simon as Christ figures and what's so interesting is that PHM positions the viewers as Humanity being saved but Ironlung puts the viewers as complicate—as the people who puts Christ to die and is watching the crusifiction happen.
Stars in the Bible have been used as a way to talk about gods guidance and often when stars fall it symbolizes times of cosmic upheaval, divine judgment, or the collapse of earthly kingdoms. Such as in Revelation 6:13. So both stories inciting incident being the disappearance/dimming of the stars in itself is theological.
Grace's name quite literally being named GRACE and Being carried to be the savior of humanity by a ship called THE HAIL MARY! Grace is immediately separated from the rest of humanity with his only connections being to the children he teaches. Now this textually places him as a more traditional Christ figure.
Grace while never literally dying does die symbolically. Grace was placed on a ship with 2 others knowing that they were never going to return, leaving behind whatever life they had before, but the fact that there was two people with him is important because it mirrors the crusifiction. Christ in the Bible was not crusified alone, he was not special in his death, but instead was crusified with two criminals.
There's also the idea of diametrically opposed salvation. Salvation, or the return of the stars in PHM is a group effort, something that cannot be done alone but instead must be a collaboration with the care of rocky his friend symbolizing that salvation is not a one man journey but something that is born out of a love for others. That part of salvation was Grace figuring out what he needed to do to offer that salvation. It is not he needs to die but that he needs to continue to live on off of earth.
Simon is harder but that's because the text doesn't treat him as a traditional Christ figure but as HISTORICAL Christ figure.
Simon is a convict... A heretic to the COI (very similar to the roman empire) who as a punishment for his crimes is being sacrificed in an ocean of blood FOR THE BETTERMENT OF HUMANITY.
Simon is also a biblical name as well, meaning "God has Heard" and being one of the most common names in the Bible, Simon Peter being the one of the most important as he was the disciple instructed to lead the church after Christs crusifiction.
The leader of Eden (a reference to the Biblical garden) is called "the father" but the father has abandoned Simon, Echoing the crusifiction. "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?"
Simons salvation is much darker than Grace's though, part of it is that he must suffer, he must suffer through an ocean of humanities sin. a reference to the blood sacrifice of christ. Searching in the dark for some light, hope, of continuing, and when he finds the black box of the sm-8, this guidebook of how to navigate through this blood ocean, how to save people he does what he must to give this to humanity, Praying to his mother, "Please keep this safe okay Mom? it's more than me.... It's more than me." Ultimately choosing to subcome to death to save the rest of humanity.
And In each story there is a woman who has to do what is "nesseary to save humanity" and by doing so place Grace/Simon in a position to be sacrificed for the good of humanity. In ironlung the woman's name is Ava in Phm it's Eva.
That's really similar huh? I wonder what these women could be a reference to. THE FIRST WOMAN EVE!
Think about it, Eve ate the fruit of knowledge, thus insuring humanities survival, but also sacrificing her own ability to live without sin.
Eva for her choice to sacrifice grace is put into prison for life BUT she doesn't regret it as she has found forgiveness in the success of Project hail Mary and Grace.
BUT AVA IS A DIFFERENT STORY Ava is Sacrificed herself, she knows she will not find absolution in Simon's success and Goes down in the ironlung herself and dies before him.
Even if this was not intentional I do find it interesting.
Also with the fact that Simon is praying to his MOTHER to keep humanity’s only hope safe. Just as Jesus looked down upon his mother before he died to save humanity and she stayed with him. In a way it’s the story telling us that there’s a way that humanity was in fact saved in Iron Lung
This exactly.
Simon also didn't truly die, when the seed (representing his hope for salvation) touched the blood (representing the sins of humanity) it grew and fused with the dying Simon forming the blood tree. Killing the monster in the blood Ocean (I read The monster as collective despair and violence but more traditionalists would read the monster as Satan) and making way for The black box to survive. This even was prophesized by the father showing that he had some Omniscience even if that did not play the way some had interpreted it, "The last tree WILL live again! When the Last Son of Eden joins the Grove, there will be a thousand trees!"
ALSO (sorry for another tiny rant about Simon)
Simon only knows his mother, just as Jesus only truly knew his mother. They never really knew their dads as well (Simon never mentioning his other then The Father and Jesus, while he trusted in his father, never knew him)
THERE IS TOO MUCH AND I LOVE PARALLELS
Just woke up and I’m still in shambles

One of my favorite things in Bloodymary aus is when Simon and Adrien are like, decent friends? Like they’re not as quick friends as Rocky and Grace but that’s also because they’re not as chit chatty as both Rocky and Grace are. Simon and Adrien will be quietly bonding in the corner over things ranging from building a prosthetic for Simon or just their other halves in general. Overtime it’s other things as they silently get to know each other, but mainly they just sit in silence as they do their own thing, or talk about advice for the other.
I love the opposites attract in every type of way if you couldn’t tell
Qsmp theory, but I haven’t got caught up on the last month’s worth of streams yet:
Every member of the qsmp is a test subject by the federation. Originally it was child/teenage experiments but as they got older they transferred out of the facility and into the actual qsmp. They have no memory of the facility, but some semblance of that time remains to them, such as Schlatt feeling the weird urge to grab Katie from Cucurucho even though he didn’t know her at all
I'm a twin
Something I’ll probably never write:
Coltland twins and Bloody Mary, but Ryland and Colt haven’t really spoken in years and they’re slowly trying to come back together. A little while into this Colt learns that Ryland is dating someone and being the overprotective older twin (by 7 minutes) instantly tries to find out more about the person. Thing is, Ryland is barely giving him any information, like none. Ryland knows how Colt will most likely react knowing Simon is an ex-felon and is not up for dealing with it. He’s told Simon he’s got a brother, but that it’s not the right time for meeting each other, even though it’s been the right time for a while. Simon doesn’t mind, personally he just can deal with one brother.
Cut to Colt who ends up with a kid, he found his wandering around in the street and takes him in for the night. At least that’s what it was supposed to be until the police realized the kid only trusted Colt. A bunch of paperwork later Colt is now the foster parent of a very traumatized little boy and he doesn’t know what to do, so of course he calls up his smart younger brother. Ryland comes over and they can’t seem to wrap their head around to what happened to this little boy, he’ll talk to no one about what happened, not even Colt. This is when Ryland sighs and tells Colt he’ll be right back, and an hour later he has Simon in tow.
After they argue for a bit because let’s be honest, Simon looks a little scary asf and Colt does not want this kid to be more hurt, Simon meets the kid. And where Ryland and Colt failed, Simon seems to succeed in. He quickly figures out that the boy and him share a similar story and they very quickly bond, causing Colt to calm down at least about that. Simon and Colt get a proper introduction and that’s it. Or at least all I can think of

The final nail in the coffin is the building closure.
It’s late February, and Avery has committed more than one cyber crime in his search for Derek. He’s learned more than he ever wanted to know about how to access badly concealed information online and has narrowed his search down to three apartment buildings with tenants named Derek Hutchins. All three have paid their rent on time for the past two months, and Avery is holding onto the hope that Derek is alive in the absence of any obituary or news publication about his death.
Ideally, his plan had been to continue searching for information and scouting the buildings from a safe distance before undertaking any kind of dramatic rescue mission. But then Derek’s final goodbye had been deleted from Google Drive and replaced with a cryptic message from the U.S. Department of Metaphysical Sciences on the exact same day that one of the three buildings was declared unsafe for habitation due to a gas leak.
So Avery buys a gun.
OH MY GODS!!!!! THIS IS SO GOOD
Best Totally Wholesome Targcest Ship - Round Nine
Daemyra (Daemon Targaryen/Rhaenyra Targaryen)
Hammeranvil (Baelor Targaryen/Maekar Targaryen)
Vaeron (Valarr Targaryen/Daeron Targaryen)
The Rules:
Every twenty-four hours* there will be another round. After every round, the ship in last place will be eliminated.
*Round One will run for three days, to give as many people as possible a chance to get involved.
If there are multiple ships tying for last place, there will be a special elimination round. In these rounds, every ship in last place will be eliminated, even if all the ships have tied equally.
When there are only two ships remaining, they will face off against one another in a week-long poll to determine the victor.
If the ship that you consider the best isn’t listed here, hit the ‘you forgot ___’ option and reply to this post with the overlooked ship. The ship with the highest ‘write-in’ votes will be added to the next round.
This is all for fun. Don’t take it too seriously ;)
Now. I'm not a Jonerys fan. It's not my thing, and I find it extremely oversaturated within the GoT fandom. But I was good. I behaved. I didn't use a gif of Jon cradling Dany's lifeless body as the elimination gif. But I wanted to. The temptation was there. Oh... it was there...
No shade intended towards Jonerys shippers, I just have a sick sense of humor.
Anyway!
Round Nine!
