23 | currently obsessed with red valley (…and phm)

[asinglefrog]

i wrote red valley fanfiction!!!!!

its my interpretation of how warren and bryony might have navigated their pre canon life as a married couple. there are some flashbacks to warrens childhood.

BUT I dont actually live in england and i've never been to gravesend, kent SO i did a lot of googling. the result of said googling is documented in this pdf and yes it is four pages long :D

its called dwell not on thy legacy (after the lyrics that we hear when the choir sings morior invictus in the second while you were(n't) hypersleeping.)

it was really fun to write and i already want to write more!!

i hope you like it!! :)

something about the portrayal of food in phm. amnesiac grace tasting the coffee in the mary and it's exactly how he liked it. rocky being embarrassed being watched while eating. the astrophage eating the sun. yao and ilyukhina dying giving grace more food. the journey to erid which resulted to grace feasting on taumoebas. grace not being able to eat rocky's food. eva being a history major knowing wars will occur over sustenance. the me burgers™. the taumoeba hunting down the astrophage. life is, indeed, reason.

eva the terrible and her solution

[asinglefrog]

friend who has their semester exams coming up is a kind of dead wife

[evstratt]

cause here's the thing, even if movie!stratt didn't exist you couldn't pay me to hate book!stratt. maybe andy weir wrote her to be this cold, heartless character but still you can't make me hate her. she was a woman with the weight of the world on her shoulders and the leader to a seemingly impossible mission so i genuinely do not care if she's mean. in fact i hope she gets meaner and more ruthless. did you guys know she carried a taser with her.

When it’s announced that a Bay Area middle school teacher is one of three heroes sent to save the world, San Francisco clamors to rename things to “Ryland Grace.” Grover Cleveland Middle is quick to the draw, becoming Ryland Grace Middle the very next school year. Grace also gets a street, of course, a science wing at Stanford, a state park along the coast — by the time the Beetles return, you could probably throw a rock in San Francisco and hit a Ryland Grace reference.

Eva Stratt, meanwhile, is a stain. Graffiti tucked away in alleys and under bridges, forever painted over by the powers that be. A name meant to be forgotten. Stratt has always known this was part of the deal: after all, humanity needs a villain just as much as it needs its heroes. The best she can hope for is to be erased entirely on Earth.

And yet, light-years away, there is a beloved body of water, its surface dancing with artificial waves, that Ryland Grace wistfully refers to as The Sea of Stratt.

Donkey heaven is the same as Ocnus hell it’s very efficient

[sufficientlylargen]

Plot twist: Ocnus actually loves weaving straw into rope. This is his favorite activity. He could do this forever.

The donkey despises straw rope, and is there because it taunted the gods.

i firmly believe that one of the reasons tumblr latched onto project hail mary so hard is because we're all so obsessed with the dead wife trope lately and grace is his own dead wife. half of the book/film is grace experiencing a dead wife montage about himself and that's beautiful to me

[mistershoestied]

reading the project hail mary book having already seen the movie is like. the most comforting dramatic irony i've ever encountered. "i'm going to die out here. and i'm going to die alone." hehehe no you're not you silly goose. your alien best friend is on his way as we speak. you're gonna save each other <3

[view-critter]

it's so refreshing to see characters like eva stratt and bryony halbech get so much love from their respective fandoms. go my morally questionable science women together we will destroy fandom misogyny
