Every time I think about this show and it’s existing lore I have more questions lmao.

This time? What the hell do Wolfbloods do with their young kids when it’s a full moon? Specifically what did the Smiths do with Maddy? You can’t get a babysitter every full moon, that’s suspicious as hell.

Anyone ever wondered why Rhydian was never adopted while in foster care?

He was found in the woods at two years old with no parents to be found. Ceri and Rhydian were definitely not in any government system, Gerwin I’m unsure about. As far as the foster care system was concerned, Rhydian’s parents were either dead or incredibly neglectful. So not who he’d be given back to, if they were found.

Maybe they kept him in care for a few years, incase someone came forward for him. But after that? Why not? Young kids tend to get adopted more than older kids, especially when they’re as young as Rhydian, with little to no memories of their previous family.

I’m curious what others think.

ok I know everyone’s considered Ryland grace wearing an “I put the ace in space” t shirt but. have we considered the infinitely funnier option of putting this shirt on eva stratt

I think Colt respects movies when he watches them. Never uses his phone, keeps quiet, fully locked into the screen. True cinephile behavior. It comes with being a stuntman dating a camera operator-turned-director.

Meanwhile Ryland is the opposite. He's getting distracted every few minutes, pauses to get up and do something else, has to keep rewinding because his mind wanders and he misses something, keeps commenting on the movie and making jokes or correcting inaccuracies. Like bro literally played Rocky (the movie) for Rocky (the alien) on the Hail Mary and they weren't even watching the climax, they were just copying the boxing.

And then there's Court who watches the movie standing up with his arms crossed like a dad

[blackholesun321]

Tw child abuse (canonically from the grey man)

I see this a lot in Coltlandgentry fics, that it’s just assumed that Ryland was the one their dad was waterboarding. While that adds a bit more angst to Ryland’s story and a protective big-brother aspect to Colt and Court, I feel like we’re missing out on it being Colt, with Ryland in the corner, staring and unmoving, begging and crying for his dad to stop, and then Court makes him stop. Being the coward he thinks he is because he wouldn’t do the thing that needed to be done— the thing Court had to do.

Or maybe it doesn’t matter whether it was Colt or Ryland. Maybe it was both of them: one passed out on the floor, aspirating with water in his lungs or punched so hard he couldn’t think, while the other was slowly drowned. Maybe it doesn’t matter because Court had created a reality where it was him, always him, only him under his father’s fists, and now that’s broken, and he’ll do whatever it takes to make sure they survive.

Maybe if you asked Colt or Ryland who it was their brother killed their father for, they wouldn’t be able to answer. Because trauma does funny things to memories, and Colt and Ryland come as a pair, and they both think it’s their fault anyway.

Maybe if you’d asked Court— the only person who was able to tell Ryland and Colt apart when they were young— who he killed their father for, he’d say, ‘My baby brother.’ Because it didn’t matter whether it was Colt or Ryland; his father was murdering his baby brother, and by the time the cops came and handcuffed him in the back of a car, all he knew was that they were safe and whoever was in the back of that ambulance would live.

Okay so, following my previous post talking about the new era of Crossovers with the Ryan Gosling cinematic Universe, here is how I think the Coltland Gentry siblings introductions to their respective partners and companions would be like.

Ryland, somehow back on earth: Okay so, this is my partner, Simon. He comes from a Post-Apocalyptic alternate reality. And this is my best friend, Rocky, with his partner Adrian. They are aliens from 40 Eridani. I met them while being forced in a presumed suicide mission to save earth.

Six: Cool. This is my partner, John, he's probably the best hitman to ever live, he tried to kill me. And this is Claire, my daughter/little sister that I acquired while being a CIA shadow operative being hunted around the world by... anyone in possession of a gun basically.

Colt: ...

Colt: This is my girlfriend, Jody. She's... a producer. A very normal, human producer that I met while being a stuntman. Sorry, how is it that you guys met my brothers again?

Jody, who has just been handed not one, but two brilliant queer action/sci-fi storylines, shaking from excitement and notepad in hand: Yeah, tell everything from the beginning. With details.

I cannot get it out of my head that every time Ryland looked in the mirror or saw his reflection after waking up on the Hail Mary, his brain always says something he doesn’t quite understand. “He doesn’t wear glasses” but he does wear glasses, he can’t see without them, were the glasses just new or something? “His hair was longer” when he first woke up yeah, he was in a coma for several years. Maybe he always had longer hair? Also, why was he referring to himself in the third person now? “Where are his scars” he had scars? That was one he couldn’t really explain, scars didn’t just go away. He does have scars in the Polaroid from his bag though.

It’s not until he’s heading towards Erid with Rocky, trying to remember more about himself instead of just his parts in the Project, where he starts piecing it together. His whiteboard is a mess of things about the “other me”, because he has no other way to describe it. He’s not a clone, that’d be absurd. But his brain is convinced these memories aren’t quite about him. People don’t see things in the third person, these memories are clearly him looking at another man who isn’t him but has his face. He’s looking at the Polaroid again, now pinned at eye level on the board, and suddenly it hits him that twins are a thing. A thing he had. He had a twin. He was a twin. That was his brother.

His brother, who had long hair the last time he saw him. His brother, who had countless little scars from his years of being a stuntman. His brother, who wore contacts instead of glasses because they got in the way of said stunts. “Makes me look nerdy, that’s your department.” And oh god, he can remember his voice now, so close to his own but so full of … life. He was so full of life and joy, and mischief.

And oh god, his brother, his twin, he was dead wasn’t he? He’d died the day before being put into the coma. He’d been framed for murder, because Ryland knew Colt could never actually murder someone, and had died in that boat explosion while on the run.

Colt. Colton Seavers Grace, though he was never known by their last name like Ryland was. Something about not dragging their mother’s name through the mud with him, since they’d changed to their mother’s maiden name after Court had put their father in the ground.

Courtland. For once, it was an appropriate time to say fuck. Maybe grief could happen twice because Court had been dead for years, ever since 2003, but remembering that felt like he was just learning about it now. Colt was his twin, Court was their older brother. He had had brothers, plural. Two of them.

They had told him he had no family. They told him this because they were all dead.

Suddenly, even though Rocky is right there with him, Ryland is so very alone again.

[blackholesun321]

I think this post sums up the entire Coltland(+gentry) au

[darkestraine]

Colt who grew up constantly being called 'coltland' because of ryland and courtland.

Colt who rolled his eyes everytime and hated it because he was colton, not coltland.

Colt who was still called it in college occasionally when people found out he was a twin (it's his go to 'fun fact' during icebreakers).

Colt who still rolled his eyes, but found a comfort in having something in common with his older brother -even if no one but ryland really knew of the significance anymore.

Colt who now is an adult -court who has been 'dead' longer than colt knew him, and ryland, who left the planet years ago.

Colt, who hasn't been called 'coltland' in years, and would give anything to feel close to his brothers again.

i love the project hail mary fandom because everyone is on board with the delusion. ryland has a twin thats just ryan gosling from another movie? sure. markiplier is here too? why not. plot twist, they're actually triplets and there's a third brother who works for the cia who, again, is just ryan gosling from another movie? absolutely spectacular.

[captainmaxatx]

People keep talking about Colt knowing that Ryland didn't get on that ship willingly, but I raise you to what I feel is more realistic.

Colt doesn't know what happened to his brother at all

He knows that Ryland was working with a team to stop the sun from dimming, he knows his brother was very important in his role there, where ever "there" is, what ever he is doing, but it is all locked down so tight, Colt is hardly allowed to know anything.

Project Hail Mary is a secret, Ryland didn't even know a spaceship capable of that kind of travel was possible, this is top secret government information.

Colt doesn't know about the launch of Project Hail Mary, he doesn't know his brother was sent to space.

He is contacted and given some vague explanation that his brother passed in an accident, and his body was unable to be recovered, Colt is given his brother's death certificate, and left with more questions then answers.

The one thing that he is certain about is that there is something he is not being told
