[dunsummit]

hi there! my name is dun, I'm 26, and go by they/them pronouns. I do be writin' and I tend to write whatever I think is most intriguing for the plot so long as it's within the bounds of being in character -- I don't have a lot of firm stances on post/alt-canon stuff haha. I'm a western lover and live in rural desert, and I like to reflect that in my writing a lot. my ao3 is also dunsummit :) tag links: dun tag (me talking, me posting fic snippets, etc), fic tag (fic promo/rec tag) my fics:

eva stratt makes me so fucking unwell because. imagine months of making hard call after hard call because you gotta, because someone's gotta, and this time it has to be you. and she keeps strong despite it, she keeps going. then the fucking pit in her stomach she must have felt, when she realized that Grace was her only option left. the horror of that realization. having to steel herself for the task. only to have him beg and plead and cry. her friend. how did she not throw up. how did she manage it. eva stratt the woman ever, how many people out there would have the sheer force of will, to be able to pull the trigger on their friend to save all humanity. and she didn't even know if it would work. she didn't know. for years. she didn't know if murdering her friend was worth the gamble. she just had to believe in him. fucking hell.

[shadowbrightshine]

I will never hate her. She went in knowing she was the scapegoat. She went in knowing this would all be blame on her. She would never been seen as a hero.

And she did it anyways. Honestly I bet she did throw up. Alone, away from everyone who could see her.

I like to think Dean jumps at any oportunity to have Cas possess him. Dean is like "I'm literally the perfect meatsuit for an archangel and you're telling me you don't even wanna see if you fit??" meanwhile Cas sighs and shakes his head.

[joodlesofdoodles]

Happy Mother's Day to these two

[joodlesofdoodles]

dunno about you but I distinctly remember this happening

[mindsmist]

always think of this meme when this scene comes up

[llove-me-anyway]

i cannot stop thinking about this heartbreaking bit in the reveal scene

it is starting to dawn on him that something is going to happen to him against his will and he is trying to understand what is about to happen and he is trying to negotiate but also starting to realise that he might be in serious danger and he needs to get out and he is confused and scared and betrayed by a person who he considers his friend and he cannot believe this is happening right now and

his friend is sending him to die for humanity and he doesn’t want it but the choice is about to be violently taken away from him

or as the book put it

“You are murdering me!” Tears rolled down my face. “I don’t want to die! Don’t send me off to die! Please!”

[herewithstupid]

Oh it’s worse. Immediately after Eva Stratt says “I’m not saying this to try to change your mind. I’m saying this so maybe it’ll explain what I’m about to have to do.”

It’s like, a three second cut to Grace, then back to Eva, and the doctor walking in. And in those three seconds, you can see his lower lip start to tremble.

He doesn’t even need to see the doctor. He understands right away his choice is about to be taken away from him, and even if he doesn’t want to believe it, a part of him deep down knows what Stratt is willing to do for humanity. That in the end, her love of Earth is more than her love for him as her friend.

ok I know I seem insane for watching project hail mary for the fourth time in 10 days but I got to watch it with the directors commentary tonight and it’s incredible how much thought and love went into this film by EVERYONE. the directors, ryan gosling himself, the sound department, costumes, set production, cameras. everyone has so much pride and the story is so beloved by all. anyway here are some of my favorite things from the commentary

no one knew how to pronounce eridani (air-id-ah-ni or air-re-deni) so they just literally never said it in the film

the “good luck” at the beginning is supposed to have been written by the astronauts on the ISS who delivered ryland to the hail mary

the mop ryland was dancing with was called moppy ringwald

when ryland calls stratt after successfully breeding astrophage and he says “carl and I made a baby,” that was ryan gosling calling sandra hüller on her day off and she had no idea that’s what he was going to say. that “what” was her genuine first reaction

the scientist whom ryland called a stagnating waste of carbon was the bearded guy sitting next to him and stratt in the initial phm meeting

the idea of the soundtrack being so hopeful was supposed to be like there were two different planets cheering him on

when ryland is sitting on the beach in that don’t-go-crazy room and sees a figure walking towards him, that’s him on erid at the end. he’s seeing himself 

among the markings on rocky were the petrova line mission patch, his rank, family crest, and wedding band

rocky always stamped his claw on the ground twice for a question

they wanted to make it so that eridani could have different tones. so it could be a given series of keys for one word and then you could change the frequencies for happy, sad, scared, etc.

after rocky wakes up and asks ryland if they caught the taumeoba and ryland shakes his head no and then yes, the directors went “what an odd thing to do”

ryan gosling wrapped all the gifts that ryland gave to rocky himself

the entire reason that exchange panel was put on rocky’s ball was so that ryland could pass him the little beanie earth

the movie starts with an upside down shot of ryland waking up. the epilogue starts with a right-side up shot of ryland waking up. he also makes his bed and brushes his teeth to show how time has passed LOL

their headcanon for explaining the rocky nature of the beach is that the eridians tried to emulate sand but got the scale of the grains wrong

rocky had them create a beach, and wave machine for the beach, and a tree for ryland so that he felt closer to home, but rocky was all he needed for that

So, just so I'm clear. You're asking me right now to give up my life. Project Hail Mary (2026)
