Knowing me, im going to have plenty of things to add and explore more of UCW. So here's a "Master Post" that acts as an archive to all things UCW and will be updated with each piece!
Ultimately, you can also check out the hashtag 'under cosmic watch'!!
Contains: Art, playlists, analysis...
(Things will be posted individually, but the links will be here!)

this and also the only difference between fanfic writers and writers who sell their own original works as careers is that fanfics aren’t monetized. that’s all.
being a “professional” writer doesn’t mean your works are inherently better than fanfics. I’ve read so many fics that are more professionally written than some published books.
whether or not a piece of writing is monetized has nothing to do with its quality.
Was working on my Rocky cosplay and came up with a fun Eridian headcannon!
So my Rocky cosplay (or as ive been calling him: Person-Shaped Rocky) is going to feature some little braids in the hair, with some fun beads...
Adding little braids isn't anything really significant for Eridians. It's a general, nice fashion/style, but its also not uncommon/unheard of for Eridians to be braiding - or grooming in general - each others hair.
The beads they braid into it, are significant. They're a type of jewellery and to share them with loved ones is a special act, its the equivalent of sharing jewellery. (Or how two people wear one each of a pair of earrings)
My Person-Shaped Rocky has 4 beads: One that Adrian put in, one a family member put in and one a crew member/friend put in.
Now, I'm giving my P-S Rocky long hair (the guy was alone for 40 odd years and didnt bother to cut it) and those 3 braids are about an inch long and sit at the ends of the hair. The braids got put in before Rocky left for the mission, so as Rockys hair grew out, the braids got lower and lower.
There is one braid that Rocky has. A "proper", a little messy, full length braid that starts from his scalp and ties off at the end. The bead in it, isn't even a bead... its a t-shirt button that Grace pulled off one of his shirts, since he obviously didn't have any beads packed.
And by the time they get to Erid, Grace has a little braid in his hair with a little Xenonite bead in it...
