Such a great show, what a pity there's only one season.

(I like s2 but I'm denying a lot from it now, and s1 is the only season that makes sense, characters are not OOC, all arcs are solved and there's a happy ending. It's completely self-contained. The canonicity of the second season can be debated, but the first season is an indisputable canon, where I have no complaints whatsoever.)

CLIPPED WINGS 2/? (For my bloodymary reverse AU)

It must be horrible losing your mind when that’s always been the one thing you can rely on.

((And BOY howdy I sure hope he doesn’t have any trauma around being sedated -))

That deleted scene just confirms to me that Rocky is disabled. You know the one, where they're discussing life on Adrian and he waves those fingers around, which are

Much longer than anywhere else on his body,

Don't seem to really have a useful palm, and

He really doesn't use much; he seems to prefer that leg for walking.

I've been told that the pebbles aren't seen with a leg like Rocky's and we don't see other Eridians so I am taking this as canon also because it explains one book discrepancy.

See, in the book, it's said that Eridians don't really have a concept of 'facing' certain directions because of their five arms, no eyes, and general symmetry. Rocky does *not* do this, I assumed until now it was purely to make him more emotive, more recognisable to us as a living thing instead of a pile of rocks.

However! Rocky would always want to be working with his hands that are more typical of other Eridians as that's the society he's used to living in and they're probably better for precision engineering work like he does! So he probably prefers to stand with those two hands at the front to work with and the other three, including that leg, to stand on for self-support.

OH ALSO: the fact he uses it for miming in that scene is probably cause to him they resemble Grace's fingers more. So imagine living with really long digits on one hand and then discovering a species where this is their norm. Probably in Rocky's eyes explains how Grace is so clumsy.

That plus the respect he's shown as a speaking device user (Grace letting him pick his voice, iirc never having the fact he speaks through a computer Grace can override used against him even when he's annoying) is just. I love it.

I'll be doing more research soon into exploring Rocky's limb difference, mostly from reading posts from other people who are disabled and/or have limb differences themselves. Taking recs for resources!
