[charascarlet]

remaking my pinned post because 2023 was a while ago lol

hi! i'm scarlet! this is my main blog, where I reblog general stuff and also Project Hail Mary because that's my current fandom :D

i don't generally tag stuff i reblog (though i will tag spoilers when needed), but i have a few tags for the stuff i make (when i get around to posting art, that is)

#scarlet original post™ -- anything i make!

#scarlet art -- my drawings (i haven't posted any in a while, but i'm currently working on some phm fanart :D)

#scarlet writing -- self-explanatory, haven't used this one in a while either

#scarlet rambling -- for text posts!

i also used to make a bunch of sideblogs for every new hyperfixation, but those are mostly dead so i won't link them here, except @hyrulescarlet which is my Legend of Zelda sideblog!

that's all, hope you have an easier day <3

[Description: a looping bouncy animation of grace and Rocky from project hail mary. Grace throws himself onto rocky for a hug, smiling and nuzzling his face to the top of Rocky's xenonite covered carapace. Rocky brings a claw up to ruffle Grace's hair and grace throws himself even more on top of rocky, rocky wrapping his arms around grace. End description.]

more platonic relationship thirds (mutual best friend you and your spouse are competing against each other to impress)

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

platonic love triangle that grows more and more heated between the two romantic partners. the third is sitting eating their cheesecake thinking "outta all my married friends these guys are my favorite couple!" meanwhile in the kitchen ww3 is ramping up as the couple in question nearly divorces over who can choose a miniseries their new bestie will like most

its on Erid, long after Grace and Rocky figure out how to hug and snuggle. Eridians dont really do full hugs like humans because then you can hear everyone's internal organs that close so its a little weird, maybe tapping/hand holding is the usual affection. Everyone assumes the constant cuddling is purely for Grace's human needs benefit, and while Grace obviously does love and need the touch, Rocky being driven to space madness and having every form of ptsd means he is equal if not more in need of constant full body hugs because he likes feeling how alive Grace is.

So random Eridian scientists are talking to Grace and are like, absolutely no disrespect intended, but very interesting Rocky overcame the cultural weirdness and sensory disgust of "hugs" and does them despite no benefit to himself because he cares for your needs! Its sweet!

Grace: actually Rocky freaks out if he cant press himself against my lungs and heart through the thinnest xenonite possible until he can hear every muscle cell in my body moving at least once a day.

Scientist: ok cool so hes kind of a total pervert then okay

So we definitely need more positive representation of DID, but you know what would be funny? Mildly inconvenient representation of DID.

Oh the world is ending and you need to know about this one specific thing? Yeah I have a guy for that but he doesn't feel like fronting right now

Sorry what's happening rn is this the bad guy? Yeah I just switched in idk what's going on

I know you're dating one alter but we're currently co-con with another alter who hates you so idk how I'm feeling rn

And just who do i think I am? It's funny you should ask that I actually don't know right now

Interplanetary Friendship

i saw this post where they hit the planets with the anime girl beam and i just thought it was SO FREAKING CUTE i had to make my own take on it else it would not leave my mind lmao

here some details on the designs

+ some early years of the astrophage crises

The Future, Somewhere Far Away From Here

Some dejointed drawings and doodles of my own post-canon headcanons! Where humans send a ship to their neighbors in order to meet them, and make sure their sun didnt die in case Rocky wasn't successful, but end up finding a very much alive Ryland Grace, looking younger than he should and living his best life on Erid

I'm just fascinated by the idea of ​​humans and eridians collaborating and what that would look like. We are so advanced in some areas they lack, while they are so advanced in some areas where WE lack due to our respective biologies, the progress from both sides would be insane.

Of course, Eridians would also want to go to Earth, and is only fair they get a nice place to stay too. Maybe is then Grace decides to go back, to act as an ambassador for the Eridians, to see the place he worked so hard to keep alive. But i think eventually, after many years living on Earth (specially with the extended lifespan) he would want to go back, yeah the 2gs suck on his bones but he has more of a home on Erid than he ever did on Earth, anyway, there's people waiting for him there.

lesbian meet cute ( but it’s Blip A and the Hail Mary)

[lutheban]

i see "Erid learns that Earth forced Grace into a suicide mission its freaked by it" but i don't think we explore enough how insanely horrifying Earth's situation would be for the Eridians

Erid's atmosphere is thick. It keeps much more heat in, and bc is so hot in there making astrophage fuel is super easy(just throw it on the ocean) They set up the Blip-A having a 70 year safe threshold before things started cooling dangerous amounts. When Rocky and Grace got there with the taumeabe and the solution to all their problems, Erid was just starting to feel the worst effects of the cooling

Earth didn't have any of that. Earth's atmosphere is thin and loses heat rapidly, the planet is already cold so making astrophage fuel is hard, it would take only 17 years for humanity to lose half of its population to starvation. 17 years is nothing to them, they might as well have been told earth had a only months to solve everything

Imagine the Eridians when Grace explains that humans had to make major sacrifices just to keep themselves alive for a fraction of the time Eridians had, Earth couldn’t affort to bring their astronauts home, it couldn’t affort to send other people, it didnt have the time, it didnt even know if the Hail Mary would work

Just Erid, looking at Earth and going "Oh you were terrified. You were terrified and desperate, you had no other choice, and yet what you did saved us too. You dont need to worry, we'll take care of what you lost, we know why you couldn’t keep it"

nasa employee: this guy hasn't interacted with humans in like 20/60 years should he really be giving interviews?

nasa employee 2: ehh just give him some media training and it should be fine

this is more of a silly one bc i just wanted to draw grace in a suit ^^

[this-is-psychosis]

I often talk about reality checking and going along with it when helping someone deal with delusions, but I felt as if I didn’t really make it clear to what I meant when I said it.

Recently I saw a post similar to “how to sneakily give your delusional friend a reality check when they told you not to” and honestly, that’ll just make us lose trust for you. Because we can tell when you do that.
