HUH????????

My PROJECT HAIL MARY slop blog until it's not. You've been warned

[sentennial]

dude can these two weird bugs be normal about each other for like five seconds

individuals under the cut ->

problematic math ability gap relationship

also second to last one is the first gracerocky i ever drew! from like a month ago! woah!

as compared to the most recent gracerocky, now in color! woah! can you tell i actually looked up a reference for rocky for this one o.o

[sentennial]

sometimes the only thing standing between humanity and the apocalypse is an unethical girlboss and her woke dog

individual shitposts under the cut (i just liked how this canvas turned out all together lol) ->

really proud of grace’s second expression here. that’s all. it was a pain in my cojones but i think i got it

do russians wear cargo shorts? lmk. it felt right to me that dmitri would wear cargo shorts but im open to discourse on the subject.

public execution on tumblr dot com. there’s no coming back from this

Hear me out on Erid gone wrong, gone polycule

[sentennial]

three scenes about animals and facing the music

totally unrelated to one another, i’m sure

first two scenes are from the book, chapters 4 and 15, edited slightly for format

edit: added alt text IDs by @nebulations - thank you!

One of the compelling things about Project Hail Mary is that you can't fix it.

"What if Stratt didn't force Grace to go?" Then the Earth dies.

"What if Yao and Ilyukhina had survived?" Then they all would have died in space, not enough food to get to Earth or Erid

If the Taomoeba hadn't escaped then Grace would have never seen his best friend again. Returning to a world he loves but no longer recognizes.

If the stars weren't dying then Grace never would have met his best friend at all. Living content but alone.

Project Hail Mary is a hopeful story. It is a story of friendship and what it means to be brave. It's a story about saving the world.

But you can't remove the tragedy of the story without making it unrecognizable. It's written into the bones.

dr. rylee grace, girlfailure

she still wears the corny science t shirts but she puts a white button up on over them so everyone knows she’s self aware about it. she’s the most insufferable woman to ever live.

rocky is exactly the same except for getting hit with the she/her beam

[feriowind]

Zero gravity shenanigans!!

wanted to draw something extra nice for Grace so spent past couple days working on this 8''^)

this will also be available as a 11x17" print in the future!

[sentennial]

hmm…

what about Grace being stupid on painkillers and realizing she made the taumoeba box without any way to access the sample?

the smartest woman in tau ceti, everyone

also if you get the reference in the second drawing i’ll give you a big ol kiss

[sentennial]

grumpy angry stupid

more fem!grace because i love her this time an exchange from chapter 25 (loosely) and it’s not strictly relevant here but rocky is also she/her. afafc (assigned female at first contact)

if you notice that her whiteboard marker and glasses disappear in between panels no you don’t :)

[cloudabserk]

so grace can feel comfortable and safe

[mythmagicetc]

moving between hyperfixations is like wow i can’t believe i used to think this song was about that guy when it’s clearly about [guy it’s also not about]

[soupmonkie]

Why grace tape rocky to pillow, Question

[jaybjrd]

based on a conversation with my partner

cause like.... rocky has 5 limbs... he can kinda... make himself into a hand y'know

[stillarriving]

I am Yours. I was born for You. What do You command of me?

[thatdassie-evil]

slow burn gracerocky where it's not confessed by either of them until either grace or rocky is nearing death (if it's rocky its because of radiation damage)

I think there are no bigger fans of slowburn than me in the house. Lets go yearn for yearn

and it's been said before but rockys shortened life meaning grace dies (of old age) around the same time rocky does....

.....

[thatdassie-evil]

Can someone link the post thats like "before we get to erid rocky has to tell you...Adrian very HOMOPHOBIC" and it's highlighted in red
