hello gracebot nation. i swear to you i am an OG armando pervert. i just had finals. my contribution <3

[lonelytaumoeba]

Ok hear me out how about Rocky asks Armando how to properly touch Grace and Armando gives him a medically accurate show

[crushbuck]

okay hey guys

[dragon-png]

nodding my head to show that i approve of all the shitty things this character has done because i'm a bad person

[manuuart]

Simon seeing Grace without the baggy clothes for the first time hahah 😀

[thefoulest]

so i watched project hail mary and iron lung

[projectorthus]

Grace sends this off as a "fuck you" to Stratt and unintentionally eases 40+ years of horrific guilt.

(40+ factoring in the Hail Mary mission, then the time it would take to get back to Erid and the time it would take for the message to get to Earth. Probably closer to 50+ actually).

(I do think Stratt felt bad. She did a lot of terrible things to save the planet, and obviously felt guilt for sending Grace off. I imagine the time waiting to hear back from the Hail Mary was torture for everyone, but she essentially sent three people off to their deaths, one unwillingly. Hearing that Grace made it out alive would be a huge weight off her shoulders.)

incredible innovations on the beverage front

Yeehaw, statement.

People asked to see what Rocky was wearing in chapter 7 of my The Fall Guys (+ An Eridian) fic and I thought it only right to provide a visual!

[djpachipikachu]

mmmmburger give them burgers (on erid)

[ilex-opacus]

Not by any means an original thought but Kirk abandoning every person he's ever faintly loved or had feelings for for his career and his mission then repeatedly being like "it doesn't matter just fire me strip me of my command if I lose Spock I'll lose literally everything including my soul don't even worry about it" is immensely important to me

[swallke]

Tried to draw him for. reasons..

Rocky dumbing down his speech for Grace only reinforces the idea that Grace is a kid in the other Eridians eyes and multiple conversations are happening at once..

Eridian scientist: why did they send a baby to space?!

Rocky: Grace is not a baby. He’s a fully grown human and you all need to respect that-

At the same time another Eridian: the human is thirty!! Are you COMPLETELY sure he’s not a child? He’s barely coordinated!

Rocky: Grace is very sick!! Of course he’s not coordinated you fucking idiot-

ALSO at the same time: did you not think to teach him how to understand us properly?? Let alone communicate with us.

Rocky: he doesn’t have the vocal cords for most of our sounds!! And we were WORKING on him being able to understand proper speech but he’s delirious?! The fact he’s conscious is a miracle-

Grace who is visible stressed and half covering his ears but also trying to listen: what’s going on?? I can’t hear you guys it’s too loud- Rocky what’s going on?!

Rocky: apology apology other Eridians ask dumb dumb dumb questions, Rocky tell Grace later. Grace sleep now Rocky handle.

Grace just nods with bleary eyes and knocks out almost immediately, and the other Eridians are giving Rocky the equivalent of a raised eyebrow in unison.

"we" being her and carl

i have this half-baked idea about molly o’brien working on a school project on the different species and cultures on ds9 and she has to go around interviewing people about their home planets and their animals/plants/climate

worf (has barely been on qo’nos): ”the targ is a beautiful and honorable animal.” end of interview. 0/10.

jadzia: in-depth and quite disgusting explanation about how the symbiont works, including the transplantation process. way too many medical details are included but molly seems to like it. 5/10.

garak: in-depth explanation about the different animals and plants on prime with a long detour into what types of poetry have been written about each one. he goes home and drinks himself to sleep afterwards. alcohol poisoning/10.

quark: ”yeah ferenginar fucking SUUUUUUUCKS. write that down, kid. S-U-C-K-S” useless/10.

[exlibra]

odo: slithers into a drain to avoid questions about the founders and also because he’s scared of human children. slime/10

julian: HE’S GOT SO MUCH TO TELL YOU ABOUT EARTH AND ALSO BIG PUPPY EYES. irrelevant to the assignment/10

I don't understand why "Adrian doesn't like Grace at first" is as popular as it is on fanfics.

Imagine for a second you are Adrian surname The Eridian. Your spouse has been missing and presumed dead for around a decade, and suddenly one day an alien spaceship comes into orbit. And you cheer "Yay alien species have realized we have the same problem and have come to either give us a solution or join or efforts, too bad my mate is still gone."

Except he is not actually gone, because the eridian equivalent of a carebear decided to save them. And he doesn't want anything in return, in fact he is well aware that he might die A PAINFUL SLOW DEATH, shortly after fighting just to get the love of your life back to you. But it's ok :) because Rocky (yes he gave them a silly name) is my best friend! Oh- Are you ok-

[macabro]

No, Rocky is first and foremost a Grace hater (affectionate)

Made a comment….got stuck in my brain; now we’re here. It’s midnight. Enjoy.
