Kind of obsessed with this quote from Henry Jackman, the composer for Winter Soldier, about writing the Winter Soldier theme: 

“Because there’s a human element to the Winter Soldier that gets revealed toward the end of the film, the Winter Soldier starts off unrelenting and brutal and mechanized and almost Terminator like but the difference between The Winter Soldier and Terminator is that somewhere behind the wires and all the mechanization is a character that we know and we care about and that more importantly, Cap knows about and it’s very painful to him. So one of the things I ended up doing with the Winter Soldier was I spent literally ten days just on production with vocals because I wanted to get the sensation of a human trapped inside machinery. So I did a lot of vocal recordings and then processed the living hell out of them to get these tortured, time-stretched human cries of someone who has been so processed that it’s become mechanized at the same time but you can still hear the human in there.”

Haunted by a thought from my latest rewatch of Project Hail Mary: when Grace woke up and saw the evidence of Rocky's injuries, do you think he followed that black trail wondering if he'd find his best bud dead at the end? 🥲🥲🥲

“You know the Commander?” The question is half-rhetorical.  The conversation that he witnesses, however brief, makes it clear there’s a history between them.  The look the major sends after her only confirms it. 

“I used to." 

On Mars, James feels like a third wheel while they argue.  He knows Shepard about as well as Alenko–which is to say, not very–but he can’t help siding with her.  No way Commander Shepard, savior of the galaxy and first human Spectre, would be working with scum like Cerberus.  

He gets the full story later from former members of Shepard’s team, as one-by-one they join the crew.  Even Major Alenko comes aboard after Shepard saves the Citadel again, but James isn’t surprised.  Knowing what he does now about their history, he thinks they must be like two ships caught in a gravity well.  Nothing could separate them for long.  

Nothing but this.  

"Don’t leave me behind." 

Once again, James is the third wheel.  Goodbyes deserve privacy but he suspects the major wouldn’t be standing if someone wasn’t holding him up.  This could be their last moment together, he thinks and then he can’t look away.  Once, he witnessed a beginning; now he has to see it through to the end.  

He blinks and she’s gone, running toward the beam without looking back.  As the Normandy rises into the air, James feels the major take a shuddering breath. 

 "Get me to the med lab, Lieutenant,” the major says.  "I promised her I’d–“ His voice cracks and he sags in James’ grip.  Despair hangs heavily over both of them.  Alenko takes another breath and then he straightens.  "Let’s go." 

"Yes, sir.”
