Ecclectic Excentricities

I'm a 36 year old artist, writer and musician. I am a straight-edge, gender neutral, asexual, atheist, punk rock fan. I am a fan of many things. My current hyperfixation is Project Hail Mary. This blog is dedicated to whatever strikes me fancy. I like to do artwork, so if anyone wants to see anything, let me know.

Been a stressful week, so I turned on Project Hail Mary for enriching background noise as I got ready for work

I’m not even 7 minutes into the movie and I hear Rocky’s voice talking about the Petrova line while I’m feeding my cats. (Felt like a meerkat popping my head up to look at my phone on the counter lol)

I did not realize that the NASA news anchor they had in the first flashback was Ortiz!! That’s such a cute Easter egg.

The first human voice Grace remembers is still Rocky somehow ✨

[annikathewitch]

Okay, as much as I love Rocky extending Grace's life without telling him, consider: Rocky *does* tell Grace, Grace just then somehow manages to like. Horrendously misinterpret what the treatment is actually for. Like.

Eridian Doctor: We went through the human genome and found a bunch of places with old broken DNA repair mechanisms so we came up with a gene editing therapy that fixes them in order to extend your lifespan.

Grace: *flashbacks to when Rocky found out that humans can experience long term effects from lower doses of radiation exposure and Grace wasn't being as careful as he should have been back when they first met because he still thought this was gonna be a suicide mission*

Grace (internally): Oh, so cancer prevention! Got it!

Grace: Sounds good!

*like 100 years later*

Grace: Hey Rocky, how am I not dead yet?

Rocky: ???

[pig-lota]

Eridian doctor: this treatment will increase your bone density to prevent them breaking

Grace internally: Oh right, low gravity can cause bone degradation. Makes sense that after so long in space it'd be good

Grace: sounds good to me!

One modification to the LPR5 gene later

Grace falls off a cliff

Grace: Hey why didn't I break any bones???

Rocky: ??? We made your bones strong statement

They add more salt or something to the water in his enclosure so that he can still swim comfortably despite the increased density.

You wake up one day and discover you've lost control over a random action or feeling!

Spin the wheel to find out what!

How bad is it?

Bitch I’m already constantly thirsty 😭

[ravens-cove]

You randomly feel sad! (So about normal for me then)

[xerohourcheese]

Hurray, I constantly breathe. Does this mean my asthma/sleep apnea is cured?

[aramaura]

You can never feel bored. Oh damn, son, I'm gonna be so frogging productive!!!

[forgetful-dorito]

I like to think that Grace and Adrian have very similar problems

[nexus-nox]

Grace asp telling Rocky that he used to sleep under/stay up all night watching the stars.

Rocky losing decades of stress and tension when he realizes Grace has been watching over his sleep the whole time, that all of earth has.

Humans have been watching the stars since the dawn of their species, it’s a part of who we are. Not a single Eridian has ever slept without a human, somewhere far away, keeping watch.

Project Hail Mary swap au with the typical Rocktiz and eridian!grace

BUT! Combine it with those 'Grace's crew lives' aus applied to Rocky's crew. So, now you have tiny eridian grace all by himself, stranded in space with his two dead crewmates.

Rocktiz's crew are all (or almost all) alive and well. (To make it desperate, it could be that a portion of the crew died including all the scientists, which makes Grace their saving grace).

Tiny eridian grace surrounded by a bunch of humans who easily come to love him while he feels guilty that he didn't even choose to come on the mission in the first place. All working together to solve the astrophage problem then bringing him to earth once they find out how he was treated.

No, this is definitely not an excuse for more tiny eridian grace being loved on by everyone. What're you talking about.

[babyhe]

Will never be normal about Shen Qingqiu kissing Binghe's demon mark and. Binghe doesn't even know. HE DOESNT KNOWWWW

He just wakes up alone and thinks Shen Qingqiu left him in some random coffin. How can I be normal about this

"It may not be high art but everyone's having too much fun to care" Cinematic Universe

The Mummy (1999) and The Mummy Returns

Men in Black

Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

Kingsman: The Secret Service and Kingsman: The Golden Circle

Pacific Rim

The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

Feel free to add your own. Please note this is not just "any" fun blockbuster, it's a certain subset where it's a bit of a romp, everyone in the cast is having fun and it's just a joy to watch.

[mygeekcorner]

Mamma Mia. Obviously.

[ladyananas]

ok but. i need you to know that the mummy, men in black and pacific rim in particular are regarded as technical masterpieces when it comes to director skill & cinematography?

the intro shot of rick o'connell in the mummy is one of the best and most efficient camera work in an action movie. the way pacific rim utilizes space when showing the kaijus is literally taught in art school. they're not just blockbusters they're also iconic movies on a technical point of view!

sometimes things feel good because they are genuinely really good!

i think the hardest i’ve ever been owned was when my boyfriend and i were talking about our favorite feelings/sensations and he was like “my top 9 out of 10 feelings are sex with you” and i was like “aw baby🥺🥺🥺. what’s the tenth one??” and he didn’t hesitate even a little before saying “sex with your mom”

[iscairot]

Good news!!!

I did!!!

the "came back wrong" trope except like... they didnt. like this mad scientists wife died, and so he studied necromancy, brought her back, and she came back and it all worked. like she came back exactly the same as she was before with literally no difference. but the scientist guy is like "oh no... what have i done.... shes Different now!!!! she came back Wrong!!!!" and shes just like. chilling. reading a book. cooking dinner. shes just so so normal but in the guys mind hes like "oh shes soooo weird" but shes just normal

NO its a JOKE and YOU DONT GET IT. ITS NOT THAT DEEP

[hiveswap]

While she was dead he put his memory of her on such a high pedestal that she could never live up to it alive

[midnight-revolucion]

alternatively‚ she came back perfectly fine but he thinks she came back wrong‚ because the tragic reality is that he never actually knew his wife

It's your post but the journey to posting it changed it to such a degree that even its closest intimacies are now foreign to you. Sorry dude.
