thinking about how stratt packed for grace, got him ramen, made sure the coffee was to his liking, packed him the earth bean bag she took when they first met, packed him all of his silly shirts, even the cat one she judged him for, got tons of letters from his students to encourage him and packed a picture of him, topping it all off with a fox because she knew he liked them.

and people try to say they hated each other.

not lovers not enemies but a secret third thing (she picked him because she knows he's brave even though he thinks he's a coward. it's her job is to be right about everything. the crew thinks they're sleeping together. he calls himself "her personal science lap dog". she's sending him on a one way trip to save the earth because she believes in him. it's her job to be right about everything. he tells her she's murdering him. she’s trying to stop herself from crying. she programs the ship to know how he likes his coffee. he's her best friend. she's his. she sedates him and sends him to his death. he can't forgive her but he understands. in the end she was right about everything)

shout out to project hail mary for being a platonic romantic movie. like. Like. every other scene with eva or rocky harks deeply on romantic tropes. rocky and grace pressing their faces together through the xenonite. grace going to find eva on the deck of the ship, being the only one who looked for her. the dance between the blip-a and the hail mary when they first connect tunnels. eva telling grace she believes in him like a prayer. rocky being bossy and impassioned and grace being exasperated but also adoring it. the entire karaoke scene, the cuts to graces smile while she sings. rocky screaming at grace to Get The Fuck Inside during the taumeoba mission. and its a lovestory abt platonic love. at no point does the movie imply either of these relationships should be or are romantic. but they are love stories. Lowers my body into the marsh.

thinking abt grace becoming fluent in eridian. thinking about eridian as an information-dense and layered language. thinking about the ability to create new words out of layered sounds and the way you can quickly describe a complicated relationship in eridian. grace practicing on his organ for speaking eridian, sounding out the tones for boss/leader and friend/companion and murderer until they blend into a single word.

and that’s how eva stratt gets her eridian name, which she will never know.

yes yes stratt is very scary and whatnot but i feel like we are overlooking how intimiadting grace made her too (largely in the book). because you expect the leader of the petrova task force to be cold and ruthless and scary, but then her... assistant? second officer? her guy walks in with her and he's very sweet, personable, and incredibly smart. and there's so much dissonance because you're talking with stratt about the biggest ethical decision of your lifetime and he's, like, annotating papers for her in the background. or you accuse her of being cold and calculated and this ray of sunshine just matter-of-factly goes "yep! she'll do whatever it takes!". and at the end of your meeting, probably the worst day of your life, the dictator of the world who has just calmly convinced you to do some atrocity or another stands up, gestures to him, and they casually walk out together chattering about something else like they've already forgotten you're there. that's so terrifying
