You cannot convince me that Grace wasn't losing his marbles being stuck on that tiny ass ship all the way to Erid.

[penny-anna]

how long do you think it would take Grace to realise he's Rocky and Adrian's third now

[penny-anna]

they have access to all human knowledge so im imagining Rocky being like hmm i should research human culture relationship terms so i can talk to Grace about this & then shortly thereafterwards being like 'Rocky Adrian Grace Throuple Statement' and Grace being like 'Rocky Adrian Grace what'

[penny-anna]

Rocky, very patiently: Adrian Grace metamours statement

Grace: what

Rocky: metamours is -

Grace: no no I know what metamours is this is just news to me

Adrian: happy happy happy Grace's metamour

Rocky: Adrian happy to be Grace's metamour statement

Grace: no I totally get that I'm just not clear on why I wasn't part of this discussion

[penny-anna]

Rocky: Rocky Grace queerplatonic relationship statement

Grace: ok now you're just making up words

*shortly*

Grace, looking up the definition: oh.

based off of this post

things that absolutely murder me about the project hail mary (book) ending

the chapter title is notated in eridian numbers

grace fully thinks in eridian numbers now actually

IT'S BEEN 16 YEARS. HE'S 53.

he eats his own cloned muscle tissue and calls it a meburger. hannibal lecter who. (i'm gonna be honest my dad told me this one as we walked out of the theater and i fully thought he was lying)

cane user grace. he means everything to me

he's fully fluent in eridian so rocky speaks to him completely fluidly. and also swears.

after SIXTEEN YEARS eridian scientists discover that sol has returned to full luminosity

grace doesn't know what wars have happened and how many died but he DOES know that humanity truly saved themselves. with his help

Having a lot of feelings about Ryland “you don’t even have a dog” Grace to beloved Uncle Grace pipeline.

[cimmeria-writes]

so i’ve been reading the book.

[imconfusedallthetimehelp]

Grace: *does something*

Rocky: "why Grace so 🎶🎶🎶 stupid. Question."

Grace: "Excuse me buddy?"

Rocky: "...🎶🎶🎶 stupid. Hmm. Need word."

Grace: "...what does it mean?"

Rocky: "Meant add strength to word. But some Eridians think also .....rude"

Grace: "So a swear word. I'm not giving you the human word for that."

Rocky: "Why not. Question."

Grace: "Because this human thinks they are rude too."

Rocky: "Do not be little 🎶🎶🎶 Grace. Give Rocky human swear word."

Guess what I saw in theaters a second time 👎👎👎

Do not think about how a computer would surely be destroyed in Rocky’s atmosphere (even if Grace would be able to sleep, but also they wouldn’t be able to work anymore :))

[laurrelise]

love how so much of the phm fandom is very adamant about “yes rocky is endearing but do NOT forget that he is not grace’s little pet. he is a 200+ year old married supergenius alien engineer. he was literally smart enough to be sent on a mission to save his planet, help discover and create a method of communication with a completely alien species, and work WITH said species to find the reason his planet is dying and create the solution to saving it. stop babying him.” and everyone pretty much agrees

simultaneously, grace IS rocky and adrian’s pet and that’s 100% canon basically

[izza-anne]

bought the book for my birthday!! can't wait for it to arrive. enjoy my doodles

[shadowedf3ver]

ah yes. my personal favourite moment from the book: the first time Rocky realises Grace is the most intelligent idiot he’s ever met

“I return to the tunnel to tell Rocky about how smart I am.” ,,,, bro could only call you bad because he simply didn’t have the words to describe ur silliness grace let’s not hype ourselves up too soon.

And hang out they did
