anyone ever think that Mark "i want to go to space so bad i'm insane about it" Iplier saw the call for the Project Hail Mary volunteers to be shot into space on a suicide mission, and his submission was one of the first to cross Eva Stratt's desk?

Birthday plan for next year?

the idea of Simon becoming a cryptid lurking in the background of Graces videos he sent back to earth is so funny to me. Like, the scientists watching have just barely gotten over the surprise of Rocky (the literal alien) and then all of a sudden while Grace is explaining something-

"And so well arrive there in about 2 days," he has the model of the tau -ceti system in hand, "and then-"

Random stranger with long dark hair and bandages walks past in the background, not even acknowledging the camera, just walking by.

"we will- oh and that's Simon. We picked him up on the way- anyway so then we-!"

Like not only would it be funny but boy would those scientist be both baffled and pissed for years to come.

What if human astronauts visit Erid one day and are doing diplomatic things and whatnot and they learn Ryland Grace is sstill alive and is in a terrarium. One of the astronauts jokingly says “you’re not experimenting on him are you” and the Eridians freeze cause yeah, they totally are. They experiment on him all the time. They’re experimenting on him right now in fact. They read about deep sea diving and are now testing the effects of replacing certain gases in Graces atmosphere. Right now they’re testing helium.

They send someone to stop the experiment but Grace refuses cause they’re so far in already and well that would just ruin the data.

The new humans think this is hilarious and insist on joining the experiment as Grace excitedly yaps about all the cool stuff he’s learned about aliens but he’s still got that high pitched helium voice.

“Because the truth is, tech doesn’t have an image problem. It doesn’t have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What’s wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn’t successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What’s wrong is that he’s trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that’s designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn’t that you haven’t told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them.”

Shen Jiu's cognitive dissonance when it comes to emotions and physiological reactions is so incredibly important to me, actually. It's particularly important that no, it's not that he can't feel a positive emotion, but that he's just incapable of recognizing it, to the point where he automatically ends up interpreting any heightened feelings as something negative. If his heart rate is increasing as a reaction to something good happening, he sorts it as fear, and so it becomes fear-- if he's blushing he'll automatically think of it as embarrassment or shame, even if it's not. It's all part of the pattern of self-sabotage that's woven through everything he does, thinks, and feels.

It's what makes it so hard to give him "redemption" or healing stories, because even healing itself becomes something negative and reinforces the same patterns in his mind.

[stardust-falling]

This is ESPECIALLY about physiological reactions to emotional stimuli. I feel like Shen Jiu is someone with a very... complicated and combative relationship with his own body and himself as a person. He is so thoroughly repulsed by himself that to acknowledge that he feels things is to acknowledge something repulsive.

And since cultivation requires a close attunement with your body and its responses, it just makes even more sense why he has such difficulties with it and ends up in qi deviation so often.

All this so much. Almost 600k into my massive "give-qijiu-a-happy-ending" fic and he's gotten a little better but every. single. step. is like dragging a whole tree through the forest while it's getting stuck on every other tree around it. He's gotta be one of the most difficult characters to give happiness I swear...

Closet horror fan Shen Yuan inviting his bestie Liu Qingge to come see a new movie with him— a little bit because he thinks it would be funny to scare him, but also because the aloof hunter in the woods protagonist reminds him of Liu Qingge. When they settle down in the theater, Shen Yuan does feel a little bad roping his friend into a scary movie without telling him what it was first, so before the movie even starts, he says Liu Qingge is welcome to hold his hand if he gets scared. Liu Qingge takes it immediately and holds it the entire movie. Shen Yuan feels awful! Even though Liu Qingge doesn’t show it on his face, he must have been terrified! That’s it, Liu Qingge is coming over to his place to have a blanket fort Ghibli-thon to make up for it! Although for some reason Liu Qingge still holds his hand? And lays his head on Shen Yuan’s lap? And curls up against Shen Yuan’s side until they fall asleep holding each other?

…. Liu Qingge must have been very unsettled to need this much affection to feel better. AURGHH, Shen Yuan is an awful friend!

One day, Shen Qingqiu and Luo Binghe will realize that their marriage is not legally binding because they eloped and thus don't have a marriage contract signed by their families. And they will have to go to Tianlang-jun to ask him to come sign one
