Our Rocky 💫

Watched Project Hail Mary for the first time a few days ago and I’m obsessed. The way James Ortiz brings life to Rocky is so mesmerizing to see. I love seeing artists do what they love.

I technically wanted to draw a human version of Rocky but eventually settled for a one sitting session portrait of James <3 8 hours well spent.

I made a little crochet Rocky.

He's gray because I had some grey yarn i wanted to use up, except it was not enough and I had to buy more, so now I have more yarn than I started with.

Pattern is from amourfou_crochet on insta (slightly modified because I'm not that good at crocheting.

Sidenote also listening to Saturn by sleeping at last and having very intense GraceRocky feelings 😞 Grace is something that can be such a dead wife and his influence lasting on Rocky for such a long time, and when he’s fading Rocky asking him to just talk about his favourite topics over and over again so they can truly commit to memory what his voice sounds like.

Other eridians say Grace is monotone, but Rocky knows better, knows how to listen closely to hear the subtle inflections and tonal rises that others aren’t listening for. No two sentences he says are the same, just like the beaches he covets so heavily, and Rocky has never heard anything like it.

“Explain relativity to me again,” they ask, as close to Grace as the suit will let them be, “I’ve forgotten.”

“No you haven’t,” answers Grace with that low chuckle Rocky can’t replicate anywhere else yet, his gentle voice having gained a rough quality from age that wasn’t there the last time Rocky asked this. He explains it anyway.
