I just really wanted to make one (he's basically just me if I was an Eridian)
I don't know if they have board games or magicians but it's fine, they're smart and can remember anything so I'm sure they have MULTIPLE ways to entertain themselves
I know 6 sounds insane but I put it cuz it's the first number that came to mind so I stuck with it
He's made of Hematite and Rose Quartz, he has scars that look like amethyst geode bits because he's kind of like a geode. I know it's a little wacky but I think it's pretty cool, Erid is mysterious and very different from our world so, who knows? Maybe it's perfectly possible
Headcanons!
He is always talking to Grace. He has two names because Grace told him humans can have more than one name, so he asked for two instead of one
(Grace called him Hope because he was the only Eridian actually keeping light and fun conversation with him aside from Rocky at the start. He was also busy half of the time so Grace was usually surrounded by biologists and nurses that, while trying their best, only really talked to him to check he was ok. Soliloquy because he realized Hope is emotional, sensitive and very poetic in a way, so he was reminded of the word (also because Soliloquy is part of stage play which is his job))
He gets along great with Rocky, he offered a lot of emotional support back when they got to Erid and were trying to keep Ryland alive, offering to look over him and Rocky so they could both sleep well
You might wonder, was he paid for all this effort? Was he even supposed to be there? Yes and no. He was probably compensated to some degree but I don't think he earned the same as the nurses or biologists, he was basically volunteering. No because he wasn't appointed to the job, but he did show up as a volunteer of sorts, a request he made to one of his mates who was ok with it, so he got him the position (The position being him having to help wherever he could)
Rocky is one and a half heads shorter than Hope (Adrian is way taller than him, probably two or three heads)
Hey! You! Yes you! Are you wanting to read my self-message to my future, upcoming senior year of highschool?
I had a random thought in my headā¦ and I went: āWow, am I really about to be a senior this year?ā Everyone was so excited for me. From my parents, siblings, and everyone in my community. After attending school for 11 years, this is my final year. But, hereās my message to the teachers who told me to keep it pushing.
To elementary, thank you to my 6th grade teacher! That Louisianan, accented lady made me smiled, assisted me through the days I broke down in tears. And to this day, I love the ironic line she said everyday: āMove with purpose!ā
My middle schooler years wereā¦ at their lowest I will admit. But, that didnāt stop me from having the upmost respect for my teachers! Throughout 7-8th, thank you to my English and Reading teachers. You reminded me that I am making an effort! My 8th grade, reading teacher reminded me to advocate for my education in high schoolāand she was right. Most teachers would keep it pushing, but I was a fighter.
Freshman yearā¦ where to I do start? My experience with going to high school was amazing and not at the same time. But this particular teacher, my Physical Science teacher, something about her amazed me. And knowing me, I was so āterribleā at learning science. And I honestly didnāt like learning it; I always thought it was never good at learning anything according to my educatorsābut that was all a lie because this teacher was far more interested in my intelligence than the other students who complained her work was ātoo advancedā for them. She told me I loved learning science the old way and taught properly. Sureā¦ I was a nerdā¦
Nice, Energetic, Resilient, and Determinedā¦ that is a N.E.R.D. Before she left my school, I reminded her how proud I was for her getting her masters degree in AP Biology. And she smiled back at me.
Now comes sophomore yearā¦ my āfavoriteā. Not the best year, but I got through it. Biology kicked me in the ass real hard but I managed to get both B+ in both semester. My biology teacher was a tough gal, but she treated me with the upmost respect and kindnessāand she had the audacity to say I was the best student in my class, and Iāll take that as a compliment! Not to get too cocky, but I had my skills at Biologyā¦ sometimes! Shoutout to her, and she worked in the USDA? Props to her! But unfortunately, she moved to Arkansas, but I plan on emailing her just to say āHi again! From your favorite student!ā
Hereās the big boy yearā¦ 11th grade. I honestly cannot fathom my enjoyment and absolute disappointment. But other teachers were great; however, letās talk about my Astronomy teacher. That man was awesome! That was the first science course that I actually found passion in. Sure, Sociology is okay and Psychology, but I was not interested in attending those classes. Astronomy stood out to me more. Who doesnāt love learning about space and cool aliens?
But seriously, a big thank you to that teacher. Everyone said his class is āhardāā¦ nah, it aināt. He is not this grumpy teacher, he is this nerdy, sweet guy who cares for his students. And believe me, I cried. I generally cried when he was worried for me. Most teachers arenāt allowed to show their gratitudeābut he did. The way he lectured us about learning about the planets and stars. It was like a fever dream. And the crazy part about toā¦ heās a Doctor Who fan like me! But in all seriouslyā¦ thank you, Astronomy teacher. I loved your class. I loved the way you taught me and my peers.! Iām not just a a student. Iām an A+ student, even if Iām lazy sometimes.
Am I finished? Uh uh, keep reading! Itās not polite to scroll! Before I unfortunately goā¦ I know, Iām annoying, but hereās a little message to my upcoming senior year:
Zarah, you are a smart individual, regardless of how people see me, your peers arenāt like you, your teachers arenāt like you. Youāre not a statistic just because your education is ranked last in education. You are not a failureā¦ youāre a future scientist! Just like Ryland Graceā¦ and as always: āFist My Bump!ā
Thank you <3!
