The reunion scene in the PHM movie is amazing and makes me cry every time, but I think everyone should know that in the book Grace:
did a bunch of complex maths combined with a long and kinda inefficient scanning the space with his petrovascope to find Rocky; reacted to success with a fist-pump and a "yes! I'm definitely going to die!! :D". yes, this is a direct quote.
"all I see when I close my eyes is Rocky’s dumb carapace and his little arms always fidgeting with something."
briefly questioned himself on putting so much effort into something that is going to kill him, then promptly dismissed that and rushed to (the thing that he wasn't even sure was) Rocky's ship.
"whenever I think about my impending death, I think about Rocky instead."
spent nine hours cleaning up on the way there because hey, he's going to have a guest again!!
briefly panicked about the possibility that Rocky might be dead; immediately rejected the thought with a "nah, he's too smart for that".
jumped towards the Blip-A way too hard and slammed into it so badly he couldn't grip onto anything and started to float away.
tried to catch onto the ship by yeeting a lasso made of his tether at some kind of antenna.
NAILED IT ON THE FIRST TRY.
was so excited for Rocky to set up the airlock tunnel again that Rocky had to remind him to go back to Hail Mary unless he wants to look at the tunnel from outside.
Like. my guy was stoked.
