whatever you do, do not imagine people writing songs about ryland grace, the noble hero, the savior of the world... and absolutely DO NOT imagine eva stratt knowing all these songs by heart and queitly singing them to herself when no one else can hear

[lemonadelickerr]

Thinking about how stratt learned about grace because everyone said he’s this rude, stuck up, egotistical scientist who called the leading scholar in his field a "staggering waste of carbon". She must’ve been so glad to have someone like that working with her until she actually met him.

[joekitsu]

Thinking about a Project Hail Mary strattland soulmate au where whatever you write on your skin shows up on your soulmate's skin and Eva knows Grace is alive and well when his mad scribbling starts to show up on her skin years after she shuttled him off to space.

Love how most, if not every ship with Ryland Grace is portrayed by the fandom as "this can be romantic or platonic or both". Everyone unanimously agrees that Grace's attraction to people is ambiguous, undefined, and ever-changing. Joy.

one day, after the engineers and scientists and whoever else they’ve got on the vat have been pissed off and been given more work then they know how to complete in the timeframe, grace asks:

“are you ever sorry?”

“sometimes.” stratt replies.

she is sorry she needed him for the project,

she is sorry he tested positive for the coma gene,

she is sorry she has to force him onto the mary,

she is sorry he woke up alone,

she is sorry he was the closest person to her in a long time, and she had to send him away,

but she is not sorry for sending him, because it was the only right decision, for all humankind.

Oh Eva Stratt how I adore you in every version of you. Slapping Grace in the book and walking him like a dog in both book and movie. I deeply love the eminent kindness Sandra Hüller plays you with. The slight awkwardness she interacts woth Grace with, singing to him when he's conflicted and disheartened, forcing rooms full of people to clap for him (multiple times). Showing such favoritism and trust towards him the Petrova Taskfoce think they're fucking. The way she commandeered a Chinese aircraft carrier and it was dubbed "Stratt's Vat".

The world's whipping boy is my angel bro.

Little Science Lapdog

Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3

[zimsbothantennae]

Stratt says "shoulder this burden with me" and Grace says "no <3" and gets jailed and drugged and is sent on a suicide mission

Rocky says "you should not have to shoulder my burden" and Grace says "yes the fuck I will are you crazy I'd rather die than let you live with the failure I am taking you home if I so have to perish painfully from scurvy" and then he lives

Head in hands throws up cutely sobs

[jadewestwriter]

and if I say they're slowly driving me insane with their secret third thing then what

[state-of-being]

Stratt: Can you be trusted to sit quietly?

Grace: *raises his hand*

Stratt: Yes?

Grace: No.

[greengrasmill]

She is not a dictator, she is a sweet cinnamon bun.

Just look at her

[crafteeauthor]

Imagine Eva Stratt years after sending her favorite guy to boss around to space. Getting the logs and recordings and finding out that her guy made first contact with sapient alien life and it IMMEDIATELY started bossing him around too. Like what if you surrendered your dog and it got adopted by an alien instantly. Happened to my girl Eva Stratt

[queer-here-and-in-fear]

i like how all the movie critiques are 90% "rocky comes off too innocent and it doesnt correctly get across that hes very smart" and its true. but saying that the movie fandom correctly intuited hes a bitch and a pervert anyway whos mentally ill and overwhelmingly possessive of this leaky space blob and that "bad bad bad" DEFINITELY means "FUCK FUCK FUCK"

Was driving with my grandmother and in broken English she says “no eyes… no nose… no face. Don’t trust.” To which I looked around wildly in search of this omen of ill portend.

Cybertruck. It was a cybertruck.

The Stranger

[byjove]

I can’t remember if I told you guys this but my grandpa paid a guy to put up a rock retaining wall in the backyard when my grandparents moved into their house in 1966. They live at the bottom of a mountain. The wall finally collapsed this year and my grandfather with dementia was PISSED OFFFFFF and he wanted so badly to call the guy who did it and chew him out for doing a bad job. My grandma is trying to explain that the wall lasted 60 years and the guy who did the work is probably dead and it TURNS OUT HE IS STILL ALIVE. Now we’re worried grandpa is going to get through to him (small town) and we’re going to see two 85 year old men come to blows over a rock wall that has been there since the mid-60s. My grandpa is a scrapper, he’s been to jail over a bar fight, the possibility that he WOULD fight this guy is high.

To top it off? The stone mason is the only person in town with one arm so grandpa would definitely recognize him if he saw him. If that is your grandpa, please protect him from my grandpa.
