They wear suits, but they don't even know basic etiquette.

Based on @cowardsexual 's post of a very sleepy phm science team and Grace's teacher instincts

[girlrandomstuff]

i love the women of project hail mary

i love annie shapiro and her not having any filter "sorry i had to go use the restroom, i was peeing myself" and her nerdy excitment to get to learn from grace

i love olesya ilyukhina, her bravery and childlike innocense, hugging the earth's dicatator like nothing, taking her teddy bear to a suicide mission, and literally sacrificing her life for humanity without a second thought

i loved dr. lokken's pride and her beef with grace about his theory

i love eva stratt and her love for humaity being so big that she had to destroy herself to give humanity a real chance to have a future

I read in Finland they give you a doctoral sword for your PHD.

Dr. Lokken is Norwegian but I headcanon she got her phd in Finland with a badass sword.

Grace would definitively want one! ✨​

One thing that I've noticed and appreciate about the PHM fandom is how much Grace gets passed around like a blunt.

That man is every color of the rainbow.

The man gets taken out of his fandom just to be passed around like a blunt in other fandoms.

He is the most aroace and pansexual agender man I have ever seen.

So far the running list that I've seen:

Rocky

Simon

Adrian

Carl

Rocky and Adrian

Stratt

Dubois and Shapiro (do not separate them, they come as a pair)

Ilyukhina

Yáo

Dimitri

Dr. Lokken

Tom Ryder

Driver from Drive (2011)???

Engineer Mark from In Space With Markiplier?

Din Djarin????????

Rocky again, but instead he looks like James Ortiz (i love seeing this one actually lol) (it's also good if human!Adrian looks like Meryl Streep)

More Markiplier????

Mark Watney

The 9th Doctor???

The 10th Doctor???

The 12th Doctor as well???

Like, let the man breathe 😭😭😭 he's practically just stumbling around, dazed, with a crazy amount of comical lipstick marks covering his face at this point lol

Edit: I've been told to add Tony Stark to the list. I don't know how this man got here, and I hate that I can see it

Edit 2: apparently I should also add Superman to this list??? Where are you all getting these ideas from??? (But, please, continue. I like wherever your crazy little brain's at)

Edit 3: okay, yeah, I guess Armando's on this list now. Didn't know that this guy was that freaky. (Also, apparently I need to add the three Captain Americas (Steve, John, Sam) which is kind crazy ngl. Where are all getting all these ideas from??? Please continue making Grace the fandom blunt, this is entertaining)

Edit 4: Odysseus. I don't have anything else to say bc I'm just... In shock

Edit 5: Shiro. From Voltron. How do you guys even come up with this stuff???

Edit 6: Robert Robertson III

From chapter 8 of Andy Weir's "Project Hail Mary"

PROJECT HAIL MARY ↳ Color Palettes VI

[vv0812]

In an addition to my series of letting Grace getting mad with people for making fun of he been a middle school teacher, I already wrote about Grace exploting against Stratt, but now I bring Grace getting mad with Lokken (or any of the scientists of the book or the movie, but I feel that Lokken is the one go gets more in his nerves so I'm choosing her for this.)

Imagine with me:

Lokken and Grace maing making different proporsals for the design of the Hail Mary, and Lokken saying something between the lines of Grace not been able to see that her idea is better because he has spend so much time teaching, that he had forgot of how to do research.

Grace doesn't take the bait, because he knows that it is true that he haven't done research in a while, so he expected his collages to point that out in discussions. However, in the heat of the moment Lokken mentions how Grace's brain must be slacking after doing nothing more than explaining things to kids, and she goes an says something like: "kids are stupid! anyone can explain a concept to a kid!"

And in this point Grace does got mad, but is a quiet mad; He doesn't correct Lokken about how he taught preteenagers, or how hard it is to keep their minds interested. Instead, Grace tells Lokken to go to Stratt, present both their ideas and let her decide. Lokken, sure that her idea is the best, accepts.

They get in front of Stratt, and Grace explains her that him and Lokken are having a debate about the Hail Mary and then Grace let Lokken present her idea first... but Lokken is not able to reach Stratt.

She explains Stratt all this idea she had, and how they would implemented with even giving some calculations of the incremented in productivity, but Stratt just doesn't understand her. Lokken who was been always surrounder by other scientists have no idea of how to present her idea without using very specific scientific terms that just fly over Stratt head, it is like talking to a wall. For every second that passed in which Stratt is just looking at her in confusion, Lokken feels like she is shrinking.

Stratt looks at Grace, expecting his translation, but Grace just stays there, arms cross, watching how Lokken stars stuttering and eating her words. Then Lokken, throws a glare to Grace and then is when he intervenes.

Grace, with a fake concern voice: Oh, dear! You are getting to nervous, Lokken. I did help a lot of my students at getting better with their stage fright, you know? I can give you some tips...

Lokken, accepting her defeat and humillated: Would you...would you explain Stratt what I'm trying to say...?

But Grace would not let her go so easy-

Grace, acting surprise: I thought you said that anyone could explain a concept to a kid? Are you saying that Stratt comprehension is lower than a kid?

Lokken: What?! No! I didn't...

Stratt, who is tired of all this: If you are done joking around and wasting my time I actually have work to do.

Lokken: I didn't... the idea I was presenting could be...

Stratt: Come back when you know how to explain it.

Lokken freezes in her spot.

Grace: Oh, wait! I think that what Lokken was trying to say is...

And then Grace explains the idea of Lokken with ease. Stratt gets every word and Lokken even gets her idea approved, but it doesn't feel like a victory at all, not when Grace is walking besides her with such air of superiority.

When they get to the lab Lokken wants to say something, but Grace is faster: "The next time you talk badly of my children, Dr.Lokken, I would not be so kind."

He smiles at her and goes to his workplace, and Lokken remembers that this man is the same one who called a congregated scientist a "waste of carbon" while he was been pull away by the authorities from a denmark convection.

How Project Hail Mary characters spent 2020 quarantine

Grace: Was being introduced to every pet of the school via. Zoom calls. He eventually set aside a minute of class as pet show and tell, and even that went downhill when Ethan from first period showed off Slinky the ball python.

Stratt: Joined the bandwagon of writing essays on The Decameron. She actually was able to publish a short paper on how food availability effected it’s writing.

Carl: ‘That’s classified.’ (In all seriousness, he was probably working at Area 51 or something.)

Dr. Lamai: Simultaneously working on developing COVID treatments and watching her company tank.

Dr. Illukhana: Video calling friends, day drinking, and not wearing any clothes while alone in her apartment.

Dr. DuBois: Getting way too invested in the data analysis of the whole thing. His family is correctly saying that he’s freaking himself out, but he’ll deny it until the cows come home.

Dr. Lokkan: Publishing papers nonstop and fighting conspiracy theorists on the internet in her spare time.

Dr. Yao: Trying not to get mind numbing oh bored by distracting his kids.

Rocky: What COVID question?
