Grace: *does something*
Rocky: "why Grace so 🎶🎶🎶 stupid. Question."
Grace: "Excuse me buddy?"
Rocky: "...🎶🎶🎶 stupid. Hmm. Need word."
Grace: "...what does it mean?"
Rocky: "Meant add strength to word. But some Eridians think also .....rude"
Grace: "So a swear word. I'm not giving you the human word for that."
Rocky: "Why not. Question."
Grace: "Because this human thinks they are rude too."
Rocky: "Do not be little 🎶🎶🎶 Grace. Give Rocky human swear word."
@ your tags:
grace: ok if you really want to curse THAT MUCH i can at least give you a facsimile
grace: im gonna need you to say every single swear word you know

Much, much later...
adrian: you are human cuss my mate?
grace: yes, i- huh

Sometime later
Ryland: "Simon, did you make any changes or updates to the dictionary software for Rocky?"
Simon: "No."
Ryland stares accusingly: "Are you sure?"
Simon: "Well... only a few."
Ryland: "Is that why Rocky just yelled, "Goddamnit! Fucking work, you rusty little bitch," at his zononite printer?"
Rocky: "Oh my god, don't be such a virgin, Grace!"
I must be an oblivious ace as well, because I wasn't picking up that Dubois was lowkey trying to see if Grace was cool with being in a throuple with them.
QUICK! What would that ship even be called?
Thinking about an Eridian scientist who learns that Grace and other humans are capable of seeing in an entirely different wavelength from their people and becoming absolutely obsessed with trying to achieve that same visual ability. It's not long before fellow Eridians are referring to them as being a bit of a mad scientist. Among all the knowledge that the Hail Mary brought with her, detailed optometry studies are among them with papers and diagrams to their hearts' desires. It takes almost a century of study, experimenting, and inventing before the scientist manages a working clunky prototype that can read light signatures as colors. The bad thing about the device is that it wires directly into the scientist's brain to process the frequencies as they describe.
But of course, the prototype is not perfect and Eridian sensory receptors never evolved for the kind of information they have to process. The scientist is at first dazzled by the sights they can consume now, but something goes horribly wrong. When they try to transition back to their normal echolocation, the ability is gone somehow. The scientist is horrified and sadly goes insane.
I bet the minute the beetles landed, and it was confirmed that they all made it back safely, Stratt was the first one on sight and no one could restrain her from just about ripping the first one open and hooking all the data and files directly into her personal computer. With the way she had readily risked Grace's life, not just by sending him off on a suicide mission, but from the very beginning she was treating him like he was just an expendable guineapig. So, rather than risk anyone else by exposing them to whatever alien organisms were inside, she took the lead and put her own life in the crossfire for once, proving to herself and everyone else that she would have gone on the mission instead had there been a choice.
She acted really cold about the whole thing, but I think that ate her up a lot once he was gone, especially when Grace was so obviously more than just a gofer or pet scientist to her, to the point that everyone was so sure those two were banging. Grace was so floored that everyone thought that way about them, but what he didn't know was that Stratt was talking Grace up to everyone she met when he wasn't around that she was the basic definition of a tsundere; cold to his face but absolutely crazy about him behind his back.
Mark knowing? Fine. It's his job to work and be online. I feel like I'm a bug and my rock was lifted off me but fine.
Now Ryan.
If Ryan, the chronically offline 45 year old girl dad of two, does anything to show acknowledgement of us, I'm going to fucking send myself into orbit with how loudly I'll shriek.
bloodmary community i come to you with a proposal.
simon calling grace, ya know. Grace. because he thinks it's a title or a measure of Goodness and not just a last name. simon, who comes from a religious cult and almost dies and is (usually) severely unwell when they meet, hearing that this impossible man is called Grace and thinking "of course he is grace, you have to be a special kind of person to rescue someone like him."
but yeah :)
grace as a name and a title and a prayer all at once.
I keep thinking about the increased gravity on Erid and how Grace probably had to line his whole house with cushioned surfaces to ensure that if he tripped (and you know Grace is tripping everywhere) the force of the fall wouldn't kill him.
Rocky leaves to go and eat.
Simon realizing he's never seen Rocky eat before: I wonder what that looks like?
Grace: You wonder what what looks like?
Simon: I kind of want to watch Rocky eat.
Grace snapping his head up, a look of haunted remembrance crossing his face: No, you don't.
Simon: We watch him sleep. Eating can't be all that different.
Grace: Trust me, you do not want to watch him eat.
Simon: It can't be as bad as--
Grace: SIMON FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TRUST ME YOU DO NOT WANT TO WATCH HIM EAT!
Imagine Simon finding one lonely half-eaten granola bar hidden somewhere on the Hail Mary and he absolutely loses his mind over the discovery because it has seeds and nuts that they can grow on Erid. And before you say that they've been cooked or whatever, let me remind you that Simon is from a planetary, teraforming, future society that has done a lot more with a lot less and easily learned how to revive plant-based organic material, probably as a fifth-grade science project when he was eleven, not to mention that was literally Eden's main job, and they have the combined efforts of Erid's best scientists. So the discovery births a whole new addition to his greenhouse to include things like poppies, almond trees, oats, peanuts, pumpkins, and (his favorite) sunflowers.
Hi!! I love your au!!
I thought of this meme with your Bloodymary dads and laughed. Which one do you think is Grace and Simon?
Just based on their personalities, I feel like Ryland is the first one and Simon is the second one, but Sunny sort of clings more to Simon than she does to Ryland, so it might be either doing either.
I'm really not sure, now. I'll have to get back to you on this one.
What do you think? I call it the Two Sides of Simon.
First days of life for Sunny Grace.
Papa's greenhouse while he shows her all the plants and especially the sunflowers, which are his favorite.
Meeting the Eridian scientists who designed her.
Drawing with chalk.
Puppet shows with Rocky.
She's a little messy with her oatmeal, but she likes it.
She lets Dada comb her hair because Papa is just a little too rough.
