Cloverâs Guide to Getting Kicked Out of Savior Graceâs Class For Very Smart Pebbles in 6 Easy Steps
(You might remember Clover as the twin of the student who writes Grace a heartfelt thank-you note a few years down the line, or as one of the pebbles who were picking on @sharkfiinnâs Prism. Oh, Clover. She⌠does not have good judgment.)

My favorite âhumans are space orcsâ idea is that trope where aliens kidnap some humans for their zoo, except it ends up like Jurassic Park. And the poor Alien Humanologists who were invited to the park are like:
âYou mean you locked up a pack of curious, highly competitive persistence predators with NO enrichment in the enclosure? You FOOLS! If you had bothered to throw a basketball or half a box of Legos in there, KE-X9 would still be alive!
âWell of course they climbed the retaining wall! Did you think to study their evolutionary lineage AT ALL?â
The humans would find a way to use the basketball and legos to escape. I mean one time a guy somehow escaped from a prison in Mexico without breaking any laws so his escape would be legal so honestly given enough time the Jurassic park situation is inevitable.
Jurassic Park would be awesome, but now that I think about it I also kind of love love the idea of humans as the alien zoo equivalent of those octopuses that climb out of their tanks and wander around taste-testing other exhibits or throwing sub-par shrimp at handlers.Â
Like theyâre totally unable to figure out whatâs happening because the cameras keep going out, but every night things get moved, or stolen, exhibits are disappearing, WHAT IS GOING ON, theyâve moved facilities twice and itâs still happening, are they haunted, are the ancestors angry, WHAT IS HAPPENING!?
And then a weary humanologist is all â⌠your humans are getting outâ.Â
âThat is impossible.âÂ
âTheyâre getting out.âÂ
âThat enclosure is COMPLETELY SECURE.âÂ
âAnd yet somehow theyâre getting out.âÂ
âTHE HUMANS ARE NOT GETTING OUT.âÂ
âOh yeah? I bet you twenty glarks theyâre getting out. Stay after closing time with me and Iâll show you.âÂ
*next day*
â⌠the humans were getting out.âÂ
â⌠why did they keep going back in, then?!â
(In a deeply embarrassed mumble) âThey said they werenât going to escape until they finished their behavioural experiments. Uh. On us.â
two things come to mind:
1 - at our own zoos the MOST notorious jail breakers are the orangutans, who exploit all manner of methods, including literal lock picking. One orangutan, Ken Allen escaped several times WHILE THE ZOO WAS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC without getting caught by watching Zoo employees, even when they tried to disguise themselves as tourists to catch him at it. While he was being âsecretlyâ surveilled, he managed to escape AND show the other orangutans how to escape. They finally found out he was doing some thought-to-be-impossible rock climbing to escape. To fix it, they brought in a team of human rock-climbers to locate all possible methods of climbing out. So. Humans would absolutely be the worst to try to keep contained. Like, âescape roomsâ are currently seen as a fun date idea. Iâm sayin.
2 - animals that escape most often return to their own enclosure (after all thatâs where their beds and dinners are, and if the zoo is any good it is the place best suited to their species-specific needs for miles and miles) after they have had sufficient excitement. Ken Allen the orangutan would escape and wander around the zoo looking at the animals like heâd bought a ticket. So if the keepers were nice, and formed a bond, and the set up was comfy, once the human knew they could get out if they really wanted, theyâd probably go back, depending on how uncomfortable/dangerous the alien environment was.
I mean if they were raised in captivity. Wild-caught humans, all bets are off; depending on age of capture a return home could be a full blown obsession, the sabotage of engineering from mechanisms up to entire facilities is a strong possibility, and they may go on a murder spree with improvised or stolen weapons if desperate.
Activated them like sleeper agents
Sorry to anybody who followed me for any reason except posting back-to-back drawings of grown men on their periods. i wont be stopping
Rocky later realizes that Grace (and Simons) inhospitable atmosphere is actually a very effective way to protect them. No Eridian can have access to the humans without clearance through the biodomes lead director, Adrian.
That granted access comes with a 5 day training seminar. It covers how to put on the xeno suits correctly, to basic human etiquette when interacting with them, to an intense break down of ALL the ways an eridian can die inside that atmosphere and environment. At the end there is paperwork the Eridian must sign to have written proof that they learned all this and agreed.
Rocky himself had taught a few of those seminars, but only if he knows the eridian taking it. He either is the best expert there is, encouraging family or friends that they are in safe claws and the biomes goal is to protect them just as much as it is to protect the humans. OR. Heâs the judge, jury, and executioner to whatever shmoozing politician or spoiled nepo hatchling who thinks that the biome is some kind of expensive funny zoo exhibit that they can use for their own means.
The Only eridians that get to have Grace himself as their biodome instructor are the children he teaches and their family chaperones. Tho the kids specifically are put into protective hamsterballs instead of full xeno suites.
Simon did lead the seminar exactly once. He was simultaneously very effective at explaining how dangerous this choice was and the importance of the protective gear, but also way to casual about some of the dangers and Extremely distractable to get off topic.
Nolanâs Odyssey:
Cut 2 of the most famous adventures for 6 minutes of fleeing the giants
Cut the Nobody scene entirely
De-hottied Circe and made her overly-emotional and reactive and falsely accuse the men of being rape threats. No nymphs or magic besides the soup.
Had the Trojan horse portrayed as a war crime so bad it ended society and was deeeefinitely the worst and most dishonorable thing done in the Trojan war (cut the rapes from the sacking of Troy while still trying to make it a symbol of lost society so they just stab a lot of women and wax esoteric??)
Slander Menelaus and Helen. :â-] he did not drag her back as his slave queen theyâre literally one of like 2 endgame-still-ok Greek couples. (Speaking of weird changes in the family, they keep Agamemnon killing his daughter, but totally leave out what he did to Cassandra)
Odysseus actively doesnât want to get home to Penelope and Telemachus
Mentor is just some guy 100% of the time instead of usually Athena.
Odysseus is neither a wife guy nor sufferer of hubris (that is not my beautiful king that is not my beautiful general)
The gods just arenât there. They de-god Calypso and also sort of do the lotus eaters as just her (but not. Itâs bad). Hermes? Gone. Poseidon? Poseidon who. Zeus? Helios? Nah. Athena? You think so but no, thatâs just Odysseus and his PTSD talking to himself.
The gods arenât there but one of the messages is to give yourself up to Godâs control and to let go of trying to carve your own path? Which Odysseus does??? Confusing and off target. 0s across the board.
They cut all the humor. No naked Odysseus. Not a laugh was had.
Odysseus wonât let Telemachus help him fight the suitors bc âyouâd be exiledâ and then runs away with Penelope at the end instead of the remotely normal ending to the book. Why? I donât know
I canât tell you what itâs about bc even though it was 3 hours every scene felt like the sparks notes version, but my best guess is âitâs ok if society collapses bc it will rise againâ???
Shot like someone who didnât go to film school made it. Scene 1 Nolan was cutting to people every time they spoke I was dying. No audio off-camera so cringe. Also insane camera movements like did we need a push in for the 0.5 second cut to a servant listening in? Was that 0.5 seconds not gripping enough? Really??? Dude what are you doing
Why was Tiresias moving like a worm in the sand
The hunting dog got more screen time and character arc than Calypso
Every woman was handled badly. Every single one. Actually Clytemnestra was fine she was there for like 15 seconds but they were ok. Otherwise though just badly handled every single time and in godsâs bizarrest ways (what if Telemachus and Penelope fought over which one of them was good for the throne. What if Calypso wasnât holding Odysseus hostage or sacrificing her eternal happiness by letting him go. What if Circe was a crazy emotional middle aged woman who sees all men as rapists and turns them into pigs for no reason but sheâs neurotic)
seriously itâs so weird to get back to Ithica without seeing Hermes, Athena, or Poseidon once â but theyâre not plot relevant, right?
Odysseus is personally responsible for the fall of Greek civilization bc of the Trojan horse trick. He basically nuked civilization. (Yes all of it bc thatâs the only civilization at this time. What do you mean no itâs not thatâs crazy I mean Iâm p sure itâs just Greece)
Cut the whole âonly my husband would know thatâ thing with Penelope and the wedding bed
Stole the exact amount of one of Jorgeâs songs you legally can
Didnât let Odysseus go full feral in the finale
Not a Greek in sight in the main cast. Just lots of Americans and other Europeans. Really bad costume design too. And set design.
Literally start âthe Odysseyâ with Odysseus home in Ithaca already. 98% is a flashback. First version of the Odyssey ever both thematically and literally not about going home
Anyway it was dogshit donât go see it
This is why Pride is not just a party. It's a joyful celebration, but it's also a pointed and colourful two-finger salute to a world that stood back whilst so many of us died. And we'll never go quietly, never again.
Somebody on the medical team put him on his bunk in a wrong way...
I refuse to draw him in pants btw
(there is pt 2 now)
Scolioses Grace pt 2(pt 1)
I do not envy him.
just spent twenty minutes scrolling the tag and giggling
@justcakethanks
the story goes like bruce hates the criminal element, he despises looters, thieves. along comes jason. hes a thief but he has a good heart and doesnt want to hurt anyone. a boy of the "criminal element" can be good. can be a hero. jason is murdered. retroactively his criminality determined this would always happen. Stephanie is not herself a criminal but is tainted by association with her father. there is no hope for crime ally. leslie is a fraud and a murderer. every adaptation pushes jason away from "before bruce exposed him to violence he was not violent, he was good; red hood is batmans creation" and explicitly into "jason was always bad, batman made a bad character judgment, jason was unhelpable"
so hiccups are a human thing right?
"you have failed me, brain." "thanks, adrenal glands!" type of guy who looks down at his own boner grumbling "you are not helping"
not to sound like "why is there slop in my hetslop" but I'm never not going to be baffled by the sheer amount of baby fics in the strattland ao3 tag. "ryland comes back to earth and *gasp* eva had his child!" you cannot convince me that woman didn't immediately get her tubes tied. girl the famine
