I’m Just Someone - Jaya

Audio drama has taken over my life and also other things. Queer. South Asian. Neurodivergent. And cool. And nerdy.

Rocky was going to say "fans of PHM" but Grace panicked! 🏳️‍🌈

I feel like some people need to relearn Genre Expectations... "Man, this tragedy sucks!!! Why didn't they just do XYZ, then everything could have ended happily!!" well, then it wouldn't be a tragedy, would it. "Man, this lighthearted teen romcom is terrible, it's so sappy and unrealistic!!" Well, yeah. If it had been gritty and dark, it wouldn't have been a lighthearted romcom, would it. Is the writing actually bad or are you just trying to order a milkshake from a Home Depot

“Is the writing bad or are you just trying to order a milkshake from a Home Depot”

I feel like that should be the canned response to anyone who complains in your fic’s AO3 comments about the [thing] when the [thing] is clearly tagged.

[alettertofutureme]

History is not done with us yet my friend

I have received all manner of threat, up to and beyond “I will play a flute carved from your femur,” and yet this is the first time I’ve felt truly threatened

[Description: a looping bouncy animation of grace and Rocky from project hail mary. Grace throws himself onto rocky for a hug, smiling and nuzzling his face to the top of Rocky's xenonite covered carapace. Rocky brings a claw up to ruffle Grace's hair and grace throws himself even more on top of rocky, rocky wrapping his arms around grace. End description.]

extremely big fan of depicting a change in rocky's emotions by turning him into ball. I am not immune to a little silly

also extremely big fan of the Other options for this: photo of Real Actual Rock, and photo of James Ortiz The Actor

HE KNOWS OH MY GODS

I SCREAMED ALOUD

[verenakauer]

I know there's a popular headcanon that Grace's crew died because of feeding tubes malfunction (based on the paperwork Grace was doing right before the explosion), but — in the book he specifically says that even after the accident he kept dealing with that same paperwork on minor Hail Mary issues, so I doubt that feeding tube problem was left unaddressed. May I offer instead:

Grace was put into coma by the people who cared about him. They (especially Yáo being Yáo) probably double-triple-quadruple checked everything. They watched him sleep for those first few days — I doubt they went into coma immediately after leaving Earth's orbit. They probably talked to him, assuring him that he'll be okay.

Ilyukhina's coma procedure was probably supervised by Yáo. He made sure that everything was in order, but — he is just one man and he is not a doctor. There was much more room for mistakes.

When Yáo went to sleep, he was alone. He had to rely on the technology completely.

We know that he died first.

actually i think andy weir's boldest writing choice in project hail mary isn't the twist that "grace was a coward & had to be forced onto the mission" which then makes his decision to potentially die to save rocky & erid so beautiful. no, the BOLDEST choice is that what triggers grace's first memory of the petrova line & astrophage at the very beginning of the book (thus kicking off the entire plot) is seeing a line of his dick blood on the floor after yanking out a still-inflated catheter

[spyfalls]

his girly scream is everything

soulmates tied together with a red string of fate thats killing their stars is a pretty terrifying concept.
