i am still deeply unwell about project hail mary and need to yap about it
i definitely need to rewatch it, that’s for sure.
nobody prepared me for how deeply gut wrenching the karaoke scene is with stratt. matter of fact, i haven’t even seen anyone mention it. guys. a dude needs a warning before my heart is ripped out of my chest like that. (and listen, maybe it was just because i’m on my period or maybe i just have a soft spot for sad karaoke but singing to one person specifically but holy fuck it was devastating either way. and yes i’ve rewatched that scene multiple times on youtube.)
grace’s send off for yao and olesya??? his eulogies for them even when he couldn’t remember them? whHYYYYY HAVE I NOT SEEN ANY POSTS TALKING ABOUT THIS. the fact that he carried their bodies one at a time, prepped their bodies for send off into space, the way he went though their items and pictures and gave such sweet words to them. grace showed so much kindness to these people that he couldn’t even remember.
the thing i have seen so many people talk about: graces vodka infused bender. love it, it was so many emotions wrapped into one, him dressing in a bunch of random clothes, dancing with a dressed up broom, mourning what he’s lost. it’s just so raw and real and relatable.
graces friendship with rocky is amazing. they have so much variety, from bickering like roommates, to joking around, having deep conversations, doing amazing science shit, it just so wholesome and adorable. i love found family.
will have to add on later about simon
