Alexander Theran (he/him/his/they)

Silly goofy, occasionally beset with shame | 20 |

[mxmagestyk]

Hi! You can call me A.T., Alexander, Theran, or Alex. This is PSA for those who have stumbled across my main tumblr page:

I am 20, so legally speaking, you can be a creep, but I would really prefer if you weren’t

I’m autistic

I will block you without warning if I feel the need to

I am cringe. There’s no getting rid of that. Forgive me. We can all laugh about it together in a year.

My account has a rough 15+ rating, both for my own comfort and because I don’t stray away from NSFW posts

The basics —

DNI:

Basically just don’t be an asshole and you’re fine.

If I tell you to go away, please respect that. If you tell me to go away, I will also respect that.

I would feel most comfortable if everyone interacting with my page was at least 15, but I’m not going to force anyone to leave based on their age (unless you’re younger than 13).

Please let me know if I’m violating your own DNI list, as I don’t often remember to check before interacting.

You may:

Curse (I curse a lot, too.)

Vent to me*

*use trigger warnings beforehand (I reserve the right to dip out of the conversation with no warning. Know that if I stop responding, it’s usually not by any fault of yours.)

Critique my art (ONLY if I asked for critiques or advice)

Repost my art with credit

Ask me questions

Message me any time of day (I’ll see it when I check tumblr)

Use tone tags (in fact those are greatly appreciated, and I use them whenever I can)

About me:

I use he/him/his and they/them/theirs, however I have a heavy preference for he/him/his (some of my labels include queer and aroace, respectively)

I’m an artist

I’m an atheist

If I care deeply about something, you aren’t going to hear the end of it (e.g. my post about consent)

I’m also fairly active on Instagram, so here -> Link to IG (search mx.magestyk if the link doesn’t work)

Friendly reminders to cis fanfic writers that afab≠woman

Afab means assigned female at birth so this includes/can include cis women, trans men, transmasc people, nonbinary people, and intersex people.

If you’re making a fic where the reader is a woman, uses she/her, wears feminine clothing, etc. tag it as fem reader instead.

I’ve been smacked in the face as a trans man by reading fics tagged afab thinking it will be gender neutral, but the reader is actually a woman and I’m disappointed because I was ready for a fic I thought would apply to me.

Have fun writing and make sure you’re tagging your fics properly, ty <3

project hail mary viewing no. 3 had me thinking a lot about costuming as an art form, and how essential it is to the narrative even in a contemporary setting like phm

eva stratt wears black or other dark shades the entire film, visually contrasting basically every other character (excluding those in a uniform). i can't help framing it alongside the use of the dies irae motif in the soundtrack - death is a fundamental part of her work and it weighs on her at all times. it's her armor and strength, the wall separating her from everyone else, the reaper, the wolf, the mourning dress, the end her astronauts will find in space and the grave dirt of those on earth.

it's particularly fascinating that, talking to grace three days before the launch, stratt is shrouded in black moreso than ever before. she knows the weight of the mission and that there will be no going back. she is acutely aware that what comes after isn't 30 years of peace and hope, but unavoidable tragedy and hard choices no matter what. but it's also the narrative clearly telling us what's about to happen - death is clutching more tightly than they realise and it will force her hand that day.

contrast this with grace's colours- oranges, yellows (with their own layer of symbolism), blues, and cream/white. he is warm and vibrant and alive and always wearing his heart on his sleeve. but white in particular is notable as a contrast to stratt's black hues. it's hope and bravery, it's his memory loss, a layer of grace's own detachment from the world despite containing every color, the lamb to the slaughter, the astronauts' ultimate sacrifice. i might have missed it elsewhere, but i think the only times grace wears the white flight suit is after getting drugged on earth and when sacrificing himself to go back and save rocky - notable for the latter being his choice.

stratt also wears a coat when she needs to be official and show leadership (recruiting grace, the warship conference, the meeting room ultimatum) and sheds it in moments of greater vulnerability. the last time grace sees her, she's coatless - but it's also the only scene the audience gets with her wearing a light grey. death is still there and on some level she's still the wolf, but she has made herself vulnerable to try and connect with grace, to try to make him understand. she is so very aware of what she's doing, that they are both sacrifices to the cause, and for better or worse she has just as little choice as he does in that moment. there are endless possibilites and yet only one path saves the flock, and she has to take it.

anyway. i continue to dream of the day that costuming professionals are truly uplifted, paid properly, and respected for their essential role in all performance mediums. i love you project hail mary.

You know what would have made Grace climbing that cabinet even funnier (because that scene ripped my heart to shreds but Grace just climbing the shelving made me pause cause I was suddenly giggling cause lmaooooo wtf)???? Grace pushing one of the ceiling tiles aside and basically slithering his ass into the ceiling. Like he was already up there and those ceiling tiles are legit easy to push past and if you’re already climbing the cabinet, it’s not that hard to get in there. Those guards clearly wouldn’t have been ready to climb up after him, not fast, anyways.

Instead of Stratt making a call to the guards to let them know Grace was running like she thought he would, it would be like ‘so… he’s in the ceiling… yeah Grace, he’s in the ceiling…’

[enbyfox]

read a fic recently where Grace is trans. thinking through the implications of that is funny. to me

Stratt would've had to source 4+ years of T in the like. three days between the explosion and the launch

"ma'am, testosterone is a controlled substance -"

*Stratt, waving the "I can do what I want" papers* "so? control it onto my goddamn ship"

Highlights from the Project Hail Mary director's commentary:

*SPOILERS!!!*

Grace waking up from the coma was the first shot they filmed for the movie! They wanted Ryan to feel eased into the character, and what better way to do that than have him play a character who can't remember who he is?

The little "GOOD LUCK!" note in sharpie that's written on Grace's sleeping bag was canonically written by the other astronauts on the I.S.S. before the Hail Mary crew got put into the ship. In real life, Phil and Chris wrote one word each. They said it was like "a blessing on the movie."

Ryan's most nerve-wracking day on set was when he had to shoot with the classroom full of children. Most of the kids were made up of the children of the film's crew members.

The scene where Grace looks through Yao and Ilukhina's photos is footage of him looking at and reacting to actual pictures of the actors with their loved ones.

When Grace calls Stratt to tell her that he and Carl figured out how to breed astrophage, Ryan is genuinely calling Sandra on her day off set, and her audio is her genuine reaction to the unexpected line: "Carl and I made a baby!"

"We like showcasing Ryland Grace's social anxiety while having a lot of people staring at him. LOL!"

Their intention for the space funeral scene was to have Grace convey that he was trying to ease his own sadness by making the dead people with him feel better about being dead :(

The markings on Rocky's body convey his mission patch, his rank in the crew, his wedding band, and his family crest.

Grace and Stratt's conversation on the boat is Grace asking her if they're allowed to be close friends, and the response from Stratt is no, they can't. This gets driven home in the karaoke scene. She understands the value of connection, a part of her wants it, but "Her love for people has to be suspended for her to do her job."

Rocky has different forward-facing faces for different thought processes! They named his "satellite dish" face, his "scrunched up thinking face", and his "monobrow face".

Direct quote: "I love how on the spectrum Rocky is." ROCKY AUTISTIC CODED CONFIRMED!

After Rocky recovers from his injuries: "As Rocky returns to the movie, the lights turn on. The warmth returns. It's like the day breaking."

Confirmed that when Grace and Rocky reunite, Rocky says to Grace, "You came back for me, question?"

They throw this out there for two seconds and do NOT expand on it, but according to Andy Weir, Stratt is imprisoned for life but somehow ESCAPES???

The Eridians built Grace an artificial tree in his enclosure because Rocky knew he liked trees

There's so much more they shared about film processes and the people who were behind making certain effects possible. I highly recommend checking out the commentary if you're able!

[eleveri]

I can confirm the second-to-last point about Stratt escaping from prison. In the last scene with her on the ice ship, she has a small neck tattoo. It's a V with a line through it, which is a prison tattoo indicating life without parole (V for life in Latin, the line through it meaning no parole). It's tiny and easy to miss. This movie is full of so many amazing little details

[haydenthewitch]

no, no, that's our emotional support girlfailure. no, she's with us, she's allowed to be on the crime scene. yes, she's a consultant. our girlfalure consultant

[haydenthewitch]

no, no, that's our emotional support pathetic man. no, he's with us, he's allowed to be on our crime scene. yes, he's a private eye. our pathetic man private eye
