Grace slowly growing more malnourished and Rocky getting worried about him oughhhhhhh

[ao3legendarium]

how the fuck does one achieve these heights

Do you think that, if the ship wasn't always recording at all times, when Stratt got those videos twenty years later, it slowly dawned on her that it was only Grace in recordings?

Do you think she felt a pitching, gut-wrenching horror when she realized that he was alone?

Do you think she thought back to that day that she forced him to go, soothing herself with the reminder that he at least wouldn't be alone, and realized that, no, she not only sent him to his death but she sent him utterly alone with two corpses?

Do you think that she remembered the fact that Grace had always been forcibly alone: ostracized from his communities, humiliated into silence, and realized she was only compounding on that?

Do you think that, upon hearing about Rocky for the first time, she felt a wash of relief rather than wonder or awe or surprise?

Do you think that, upon seeing Rocky in the ship for the first time, she felt pure joy not at the fact that she was looking at an alien but knowing that Grace wasn't alone anymore?

no but im thinking about the videos diaries now bcos for like 20 years Grace and the other astronauts were all remembered as the heroes who went on a suicide mission to save the sun? which is impressive on its own but once the beetles come back and some of the videos get released everyone is like :O :O :O bcos not ONLY did Ryland Grace nobly volunteer to go on a suicide mission to save the sun, he did the whole mission by himself after the other astronauts died and made first contact with an alien species while he was at it?? he's basically the best guy in history??

but then someone leaks the Full Unadultered Ryland Grace diaries and there's gonna be various Realisations along the lines of

oh my god he didn't volunteer. oh god he was so angry & miserable and lonely up there. they just sent this sweet man to die in space against his will. oh we're all alive because they killed this poor man. okay.

oh my god he was so stupid he was such a stupid dork he nearly got us all killed so many times

i think there is a statue of grace. on the campus of the university where he got his phd. it's a big base, like the statue atop it is going to be a larger than life hero standing brave. but instead it is him, life size, sitting with his feet dangling off the edge and turned slightly to the side like he is in conversation.

there is room to sit next to him. students like to hop up and sit next to dr. grace to get advice, vent, just take a minute. he's a friend to all on campus

Neither of them are happy with this situation

I have seen glimpses of phm Ryland Grace being turned/reborn/made into an eridian to extend his life or some-such-similar-reason.

And I propose.

Since Eridian brains seem better with memory and such.

(I wonder if, because their brains are basically a big crystal, the reason their memory is so good is because it literally gets carved into the crystal so they can revisit it whenever with no problem.)

Imagine they manage to basically transfer Grace's consciousness into crystal brain into Eridian body.

and suddenly Grace is one of the smartest bitches on Erid (not that he wasn't already smart, or that the Eridians didn't already view him as smart, but now they have an easier way to comprehend how smart he is) because he no longer has the feeble flaws of a human brain with it's weird memory and stuff.

Rocky when Grace is human: This is my very smart, squishy alien friend.

Rocky when Grace becomes an Eridian and can finally properly chatter about Science: holy shit, Grace is a very smart fucking Nerd.
