A Wery Upset Worm

[applecidersstuff]

I have this crack-theory about TBBT which ties into Amy and Sheldon’s theory, that got them the Nobel, almost being disproved. It’s basically that the guy(former USSR physicist) from the physics bowl tournament in season 1 is actually the same guy who wrote the book/paper that Leonard, Raj and Howard find in the university library in season 11 when they have to double check sources for Shamy’s theory

I’m compiling a list of people/creatures that Grace and Rocky could meet in space, feel free to add:

Simon (ironlung)

Manuela Dominguez, Jan Kilbride, Carter Chilcott (Daedalus crew, TMA)

Crowley and Aziraphale (Good Omens)

Members of Markiplier multiverse

Members of Ryan Gosling multiverse

Artemis II crew

Enterprise spaceship (Star Trek)

While Grace is teaching the Eridians, he mentions how important socialization and pack bonding is for humans. Humans require a community to thrive and get depressed if they're left alone, so it's best to keep them in groups. However humans can pack bond with anything, and Grace is very close to the Eridians, so he's okay.

The Eridians misunderstand him, and proceed to panic because they only have one human. They only have one human but it turns out you need to keep them in packs. They can die if they're isolated for to long and they can't let Grace die this is bad bad bad.

So they send a message to earth, asking if anybody would be willing to volunteer to live on Erid with Grace. They stress that while this is a life or death matter, they need the human to be a willing participant. That all of their needs and wants would be met and that the Eridians would give Earth information and technology in exchange. The volunteer would be given a life of luxury in exchange for living on Erid with Grace.

Unfortunately, there is a mistranslation, and the humans think that the Eridians require a sacrifice otherwise they will use their resources against earth. In order to avoid a possible interstellar war with an alien species, they choose a convict who has a life sentence to be locked in a bare rocket and blasted off to Erid.

That is how Simon, the only survivor of his religious extremist cult, ended up on the SM-13 headed to an alien planet against his will.

I went into a spiral while relistening TMA and had to do some math

In the recording from 161(or 162) with John’s birthday he says he’s turning 38, which is a lie. He says when on the run (first ep of season 2 I think) that he looks older and people usually don’t believe him when he says he’s either just under 30 or just 30 (it’s 1 am where I am and I can’t be fcked to find the transcripts to double check). According to fandom-wiki he was born around 1987, season 1 is set in 2016 which would make him 29 at the time of that birthday recording

My boy just casually added 10 years to his age and the only person who didn’t believe him was the the one that looked through everyone’s HR file

i know inej says there's the rumor wylan slept with his tutor that doesn't really add up. and people have their own headcanons and theories about that.

but really i think that's just what van eck told (or a tutor told) to explain the firing of wylan's teachers when they couldn't make him read. his staff was known to be very tight-lipped and well paid, so i don't think a rumor like this would have come organically from an encounter with a tutor. it would've been orchestrated to explain a very externally visible problem in the house—like a recent dismissal

then again, there's that scene in the library in crooked kingdom where wylan knows the secret passage because of his meetings with his tutor, so idk make of it what you will

[shit-people-probably-didnt-say]

Likely a ‘resign or be ruined’ situation

If tutors were being constantly fired, no one would work for Jan van Eck. But if tutors “chose” to resign? Well then thats their decision, and no stain on the van Eck name.

But, maybe one tutor refused to go down easy. Refused to accept their contract being broken because the boy they’re supposed to teach cant even read. Or perhaps a new servant/indenture not yet silenced by fear overheard the threat to out this sordid “affair” and sold the story

[applecidersstuff]

Honestly I think that the rumor was likely spread by Wylan himself for protection. I do think that there probably was one or two ‘relationships’ during the last year or two of Wylans stay at the mansion, and that how he knows the passages, but they were more of a ‘traumatized, neglected boy/money hungry tutor’ dynamic. Wylan needed a reason for why his Father kicked him out, and with rumors it’s usually first come first serve when it comes to which rumor people believe. He couldn’t afford for a rumor about his dyslexia to appear, because it would put him in the same vulnerable position as Inej when she first came to Ketterdam, he can’t verify when he’s signing without outing his dyslexia, and if he sign is the wrong thing he ends up in a brothel. He probably mentioned ‘a rumor he heard’ to people who were discussing Van Eck’s heir to ensure that if his father would start spreading rumors about his dyslexia people wouldn’t take it as seriously

Im also going to leave a link to my old post about this here, im too lazy to rewrite all that I have there to here))

Im making clay figurines of Rocky and Adrian for my book shelf! (Adrian is based on a mix of a collection of different Adrian art I saw)

Anyone has any suggestions for poses? (Suggestions AND REFERECES will be greatly appreciated!!!)

[applecidersstuff]

Legs are done! Sort of… I need suggestions on leg carvings for Adrian, ofc im going to include the marriage circles that Rocky has, but all the rest have some sort of relation to his mission

(Btw, my Adrian is almost identical to this person's design!) @dream1essness

[applecidersstuff]

Plan for pose so far, hope to get them done today/tomorrow

Can you imagine being stuck in space completely alone with only the corpses of your friends for company, and the first living thing you meet after 46 years of that misery is a fucking weird alien creature who just rolls up with crazy advanced tech and goes "hi let's work together" and makes it possible for you to save your world through the power of friendship and molecular biology. AND THEN you find out that in this creature's language, its name means "mercy". Happened to my good friend Rocky btw

[nikosonn]

what if…

[ashewintersnumber1fan]

everyone start using your queues more theyre the best goddamn feature on tumblr. imagine if you could post consistently with no effort. imagine if instead of passing around the same new art like a blunt you put it in an indeterminate purgatory where it would come out at random because you shuffled the queue like 5 times to disguise the fact that you went buckwild over your blorbo and went through their whole tag

[frend-zee]

big fan that bloodymary is out and proud with it trending, but everyday we breach containment is a singular step closer to markiplier finding out that he is being shipped with ryan fucking gosling, and that is a concept that frightens me

[dae-15]

I'M MAD AGAIIIIINNNN!!!! The Jesus narrative was a waste, he was barely in it and as another post pointed out, HE SHOULD'VE BEEN JUST THE ONE THAT APPEARED WHEN AZIRAPHALE SUMMONED GOD!!!! OUT OF THE THREE PERSONS OF THE TRINITY HE'S THE ONLY ONE WITH A HUMAN BODY!!! GOD THE FATHER (or Mother in this case) WAS NEVER GIVEN A PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION IN SCRIPTURE AND THE HOLY GHOST WAS ALWAYS JUST DOVE OR TOUNGES OF FIRE!!! JESUS SHOULD'VE FOUGHT FOR EXISTENCE ESPECIALLY SINCE HE INTERACTED WITH THE PEOPLE OF EARTH HE WAS WASTED NARRATIVE TOOL POTENTIAL!!! ALSO WTF DID HE GET THANOSED BY THE BOOK OF LIFE??? HE'S LITERALLY GOD THEY MENTIONED THE TRINITY SO I'M ASSUMING THAT THEY KNOW HOW THE TRINITY WORKS (as much as humans can understand how the Trinity works, cuz ya know it's considered one of the greatest mystery of the faith) THEY'RE NOT SEPARATE ENTITIES THEY'RE ONE AND THE SAME HE'S GOD AS MUCH AS GOD THE FATHER/MOTHER IS GOD THEY'RE ON EQUAL FOOTING WHY DID HE ALSO GET DUSTED?!?!?!

Sort of important question for my sanity, do we know if Simon(ironlung) is actually going into a planets sea or into a mutated portion of space? Because if he is going into the planet I nave no idea how that’s helping them fix the stars or space, and the whole thing with the creature that was responsible for the QR(I think?) and the cave system just confuses me if it’s inside some planet.

Because if it’s a mutated portion of space and a space version of a ship with a submarine port(or something similar to a gas giant but with blood and a core made of Swiss cheese) I can at least understand how Bloodymary works in terms of Rocky and Grace finding Simon in space. Simon gets thrown out of the planet, or the mutated part by the monster and then they find him. Monster is a mutation or a different evolutionary stage of astrophage, which would work in a mutated space because astrophage travels through space and stays alive, who says it can’t survive in a later evolutionary stage? It would make sense why their stars are “dead”, they are set in a further region compared to earth and cannot see Tau Ceti, the rest of stars are so dimmed that they can’t pick up their light with the equipment they have, and they clearly dont have the equipment to find the Petrova Line. If we assume the blood sea is a planet similar to Venus and has the same favorable climate, it would explain the monster being a further evolved astrophage, we’ve got no indication of it being actual blood so it could just be some weird gas form or something on the border of liquid and gas forms (xenon was a solid, there’s no reason why this planet can’t have an odd atmosphere on the border of states of substance). And the reason why Simon ends up in PHMs part of space is because he’s thrown out of whatever he was in and because he gets thrown into space he’s journey is dependent on Newton’s first law (object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an outside force) so he won’t need any fuel to get there. We are shown that he has something that allows him to save his oxygen, so he could make it if the force of the initial impact created by the creature that threw him out of the blood sea was big enough to make him go the same speed as Hail Mary did.

I’m also conflicted on my feelings about Eva Stratt and Ava, not in a sense on their morals but more about what they are relative to each other. On one hand I think they should kiss and then get wasted while spilling their guts about their moral failures.

On the other hand, ironlung apparently has some time warping creature? What if Eva Stratt after being convicted escapes and sneaks on a ship that was supposed to be for a rescue mission for Grace, but instead she hides there until they are in space and then she hijacks the spaceship and makes them go in a different direction. If I was correct and ironlung does have a time creature then in this scenario the creature gets Eva and the spaceship, sends them slightly back in time to have them also fix the stars in that part of the universe. Eva Stratt is Ava, she’s trying to recreate project Hail Mary, and Ava’s attempt to save Simon is her guilt, over basically murdering Grace and then doing that a second time, spilling over and clouding her judgment

"Did you even kiss the brick?"
