project hail mary is insane bc the first half is like oh my god the world is dying and there's alien bacteria eating the sun and there's some guy alone on a ship and he's having a breakdown and the flashbacks are getting darker and this is a tragedy the likes of which i have never seen. then BAM andy weir says fuck you actually. here's this pokemon guy he's here to save the day with the power of friendship. and it's the best thing you've ever seen in your life
Okay but imagine being the team of Eridian scientists tasked with keeping Erid's Only Human alive for as long as possible while the whole planet's environment is literally trying to kill him. And then Rocky shows up and is like:
“Grace says he would like half of dome to be water.”
“Oh, is necessary for humans to have large amounts of water question?”
Small Eridian equivalent of a sigh. “No. Not needed for life. In fact Grace will die if he falls in water and does not get out.”
“Tell him we give him water in containers that won't kill him. Lots lots lots of water on Erid for Grace to drink.”
“No. Grace say he want water on ground. Also want it with excess sodium chloride compound so it will be unhealthy for drink.”
“WHY QUESTION???”
To celebrate Erid getting their sun back on track, Grace asks for some alcohol. There's a small amount left from the Hail Mary and Rocky offers to take it to the science Eridians to see if they can synthesise more.
“Grace want this liquid for celebration.”
“Of course.” They scan it. “You have wrong liquid. This contain compounds which are poisonous for humans.”
“Yes yes yes. Grace say humans like feeling of being slightly poisoned.”
“WHY QUESTION?????”
Grace is like one of those extremely finicky tropical fish who instantly die if not kept in extremely specific conditions.
Only here the fish can talk and keeps asking you to make it vodka.
these were the rejected ones
mutual feeling
ALSO grace's syntax is significantly changed by the end of the book because of his shared grammar with Rocky. Its GOTTA be mutual, right? how weird do you think Rocky sounds to other Eridians when he talks to Grace?
Adrian meets Grace for the first time, and is fully prepared for the alien to talk weird, of course it will its a weird leaky space blob with only two arms, but they are NOT prepared for their mate's grammar to completely fall apart. Adrian can't even properly greet Grace because they're too busy laughing at Rocky for talking like that
i bet the world was told the tale of how ryland grace heroically stepped up and sacrificed himself as the science specialist after the explosion. i bet his students were told that their teacher bravely chose to die to save them, all of them. ryland grace, the savior of earth.
no one will ever know he was dragged kicking and screaming. no one will ever see the cctv footage of him running, screaming, begging for his life.
the story they will be told of ryland grace, the savior of the universe, will be a bold faced lie.
and no one will know he did willingly sacrifice himself to save rocky.
no one will know he could have come home. no one will know he finally found his purpose amongst the stars.
Stratt... have many thoughts about her, all of them leave a gutwrenching pit in my stomach <3 love herr
weirdest part of being an adult is the fact that you can put off watching a movie for nearly a decade and barely notice
Ryland and his wardrobe against the world! Love love love the costume design for him (please let me steal his closet). My attempt to add more t-shirt to his collection.
guys i’m so sorry to say this but exercising and indulging in hobbies rather than scrolling on your phone for 200 hours actually does improve your mood and overall mental health, this has deeply upset me more than anyone
Why don't you ask your friend to help?
You are a demon. a supernatural being. you could have gone anywhere and done anything. and yet he chose to be homeless in an alley and wallow in heartbreak.
I love everything about this.
Also, we finally get crowley and rats. haha
Project Hail Mary is wonderful bc it’s the kind of story that would normally be a sweeping romance - they were destined to find each other, they love each other to the point of saving their entire worlds - but its not a romance! Friendship can be the thing that propels you to save the world!
Grace explaining to Rocky all of the resourceful low cost ways he is collecting materials for his Eridian students to do experiments and Rocky going "If you need something just ask. We can make it for you question?" and he doesn't understand why Grace is tearing up (His classroom budget on Earth was $100 for the whole year).
They'll be ready. I expect so. They have a great teacher.
the thing that i adore the most about project hail mary is the fact that, after travelling god knows how far, saving multiple worlds, and living on an alien planet, grace ends the film not as some big hero, but as a teacher
its just so nice that the film sits there and says ‘ryland graces job as a teacher is important’, because its very common in these kinda films that the protagonist starts off as a teacher purely to give a bit of exposition before the government person shows up and goes ‘youre the best (insert science here)ist in the world, and we need your help to save the world’ or whatever, and i assumed at first that thats what this film was doing as well
but its not
grace starts the film as a teacher, he goes through the film as a teacher, and he ends the film as a teacher. he is a teacher to his students. he is a teacher to the astronauts. he is a teacher to rocky. and at the end of it all, he is a teacher to his students.
ryland grace saves both worlds not because he is some big hero, but because he is a teacher. and his reward at the end of it all is that he gets to keep teaching. and isnt that beautiful
I forgive you
