it's kinda fucked up that charlie slimecicle has been getting so hot and everyone now is like wow he's hot when i was into him while he still looked like a dork ass nerd. i saw the vision from the beginning

[ecstasydemon]

like and share if u think the girl on the left is just as beautiful as the girl on the right

To satisfy my need to draw out the different body types Colt and Ryland grew into, I sketched out this really sketchy sketch, you see?? Definitely because of that and nothing else.

[glitchedgirly]

See the thing about Stratt putting all media ever in the Hail Mary is that it isn’t just for lolz or to keep the crew entertained, it always struck me as something deeply sad. Because even if all the crew survived, there was no way they could consume all possible media ever, language barriers alone would present a problem. And even then, they had a job to do and focus on first (which could have theoretically taken decades of work to figure out) so they wouldn’t have much use for The Great Gatsby or a week’s worth of poorly written amateur Guatemalan experimental opera. Let us remember that Stratt is practical and true utilitarian Instead, I think it was another part of the Hail Mary. If the scientists failed, if the Earth died, then what? Everything would have been completely lost. Art, music, film, history. Destroyed. Without a single living soul to remember it by. It would be as if all of humanity had never existed.

But if it survived? If other alien civilizations discovered traces of humanity? Then the memory of mankind could live on and be remembered. What better way to do that than to send everything (literally everything, the art, the music, the science, the history) out as far as humanly possible so that it might connect with someone else in the universe? It would be a long shot, a Hail Mary, but it was the best chance that humanity had to be remembered

[dmwatermelon]

honestly... this is why I headcanon that Stratt asked for seeds from that Norway vault (I can't remember the name of it). One of every single one.

she wanted to preserve history, their history, and it lines up super well with the fact that she (at least in the book) was a history major.

she knows how much of a long shot it is. and sending the Mary out, with everything they have in those current moments.

ugh. i love Eva Stratt as a character and what she stands for. (even if I don't like her as a person, but I can understand why people like her.)

[homeless-dionysus]

actually simon's willingness to be vulnerable in shocking, when you think of his backstory and his situation. i don't think it can all be chalked up to the intensity of what he's going through at the time. for example:

it's one thing to not be able to completely hide your emotions, but to express a need about them, and even to be in touch with oneself to this extent at all (rather than constant callousness and lashing out or total withdrawal, which are pretty typical in male characters especially), says a lot about the strength of his nature. that is, for someone to have a painful life where they aren't well-supported, the ability to still feel and express as deeply and vulnerably as this isn't easy to hold on to.

so in shipping terms, it makes the most sense to believe he would be totally aware of how he feels and both willing and able to openly discuss it, and have a warm attitude toward human connection, without denial or hostility toward (for example) grace.

tbh if you wanted to say one of them would be "better" at this kind of communication, i would pick simon for his emotional honesty.

grace can teach middle schoolers, but struggles to communicate or set boundaries with adults. he gives up or lashes out but doesn't take the risk or make the effort to reveal anything deeper about his feelings, if he doesn't think they will be "acceptable" to others.

simon doesn't hide his feelings to protect himself or to be polite, so everything he shows is just because that's how he really feels. and again and again in the film we see that how he really feels is empathy, compassion, as well as a sense of his own value as a person worthy of survival and respect just like everyone else.

grace is going to have to learn how to get in touch with his own feelings and lower his defenses for them to have good communication in their relationship.

The irony of this new breed of self-righteous AI hunters on AO3 is that they're all just copy and pasting peoples fics into AI detectors, which are all operated by AI and therefore THEY are feeding people's work into the algorithm without their consent and in some cases no doubt circumventing the locks people put on to avoid getting scraped...

Don't copy and paste anyone's AO3 work into third party websites, you're not the good guys in this situation?

Foxy Grace and Wolfy Simon

[glowbeam]

"simon would definitely beat grace in a fight no question" is taken for granted in a lot of fics and i don't want it to be!!! yes whatever simon is physically bigger and more superficially muscular, but grace is

taller, higher center of gravity

also pretty fucking muscular (no it was not just the ship, NMES devices MAINTAIN muscle they don't build it)

prone to explosive anger

fucking scrappy, doesn't fight fair (the chase scene)

FAST (how fucking far he got in the chase scene. which makes sense because he does cardio literally every day)

not to mention if you believe in coltlandgentry propaganda do you seriously think court wouldn't make damn sure his baby brothers could protect themselves. do you think colt wouldn't teach his notoriously clumsy twin how to take the least amount of damage from a fall or a hit.

like... let him get the upper hand. let him win, even. typical fanfic scene with simon attacking grace when he first wakes up on the ship, but grace locks in and triggers muscle memory he maybe didn't even know he had, gets simon pinned or in some kind of secure hold. "ohhh-kay. hey there. sorry, that's my bad for startling you. my name's grace..."

[dmwatermelon]

THIS OH MY GOD

That man literally blows up at a conference and calls one of the top scientists in his field a staggering waste of carbon???? there's no WAY that he isn't able to just tap into the assholeness.

also with Coltland Gentry 2/3 of the brothers are crazy as hell.

I mean court literally is psudeo cia and with the backstory???? no shot grace doesn't know how to fight and/or defend himself.

and colt is a stunt man - you literally watch him fight people off in his movie/it's his literal job.

No way they'd just let grace exist w/o some form of basic self defense knowledge.
