I am an active poster, reblogs, make my own stuff, writing, memes and just overall sharing my opinions on stuff I like and fun little headcanons that pop into my brain, this blog is a massive outlet for me and I just post whatever Iâm thinking of and I hope you find some enjoyment from a look into my chaotic brain :)
My posts are usually just about whatever show/movie/book Iâm super into, or just occasionally stuff Iâm thinking about. Mainly having to do with writing and whatnot!! :)
I fear Simon WOULD think that Orpheus was dumb ass hell for looking back no matter with version of the story. Like passionately its such a matter of discussion. Happens like once a week. Till he and grace are climbing up stairs on day and suddenly like he doesn't hear so he finishes the stairs and looks behind to look for grace to make sure it's all okay and then it hits him. Oh *oh* this makes so much sense.
Sometimes I think about Finnick trying to befriend Katniss before the Quell and I lose my shit
The other rebels are like you need to subtly let her know you're on her side, so you go bet and turn your charm up to 11. Which would have maybe worked on anyone else but this is Katniss Everdeen we're talking about.
So now you're stuck doing increasingly ridiculous social gymnastics every time she's around and still by the time the night before the Games arrives the only thing she's convinced of about you is that you are going to try to fucking murder her
So you freak out, seek out Haymitch and basically go "hey what the fuck is wrong with your kid". And Haymitch just stares ahead for a second, nods, takes off his bracelet, says "wear this" and leaves. You fucking hate district 12
So you go okay. Breathing exercises. This is fine. Guess I'll have to save her life during the Games or sth maybe that'll do the trick. And when you see the Arena you cheer up for a sec bc you definitely have the advantage here she'll have to trust you right?
Wrong. She can fucking swim. SHE CAN FUCKING SWIM.
So now you're in the Cornucopia with no cards up your sleeve, no time left, and arguably the other deadliest tribute in that Arena pointing at you with a bow, and so you go "you know what, fuck it, I'm going to die anyways" and you show her the bracelet
AND IT FUCKING WORKS
Bear in mind Finnick had no first-hand experience on Katniss and Haymitch's bitch-to-bitch telepathy this was his first contact with it
Just saying lucky for the Rebellion this was Finnick and not me if I was in his place I would have killed her there and then just out of principle
the concept of rocky being able to hear grace's stretch marks and he says, "pretty. like eridian markings."
then grace tells rocky that stretch marks are actually considered ugly for human beauty standards. but rocky cannot fathom that. how could they be ugly, for they are the irrefutable proof of growth, of resilience, and of survival? it is like a story, written on skin.
and maybe grace has stretch marks because of his fluctuating weight, from starvation on the way to erid to the slow recovery journey. and in this context, how could rocky ever think them ugly? when this is the proof that grace sacrificed so, so much for him?
Grace who runs his fingers along his stretch marks while frowning and Rocky is so confused, maybe he was sad from memories of his starvation?? But when he finds out heâs sad solely due to the appearance aspect heâs like: ?!?!!!!???!!?!?!
Game eel was small enough to enter its head through the ship while movie eel was big enough to hold the entire SM-14 in it's mouth. HC that game!convict was one of the first pilots the COI sent after SM-8 went down and Simon got to witness its size after devouring multiple submarines.
Thank you @negative-pressure-ventilator for spotting this.
Anyway, pulling my freaking HAIR OUT. MY TIMELINE!!!!
I knew this was going to happen as we continued to discover things and new information came out. I am making BIG corrections and leaving obligatory comments on my previous posts about said timeline.
I am just happy I got people more familiar with the game timeline in the meantime! Onwards, Progress!!! *my horse named Progress neighs and I gallop into the sunset*

One of my favorite hcs is Rocky and Simon being a ragebaiter while Grace is the ragebatee (or however you spell it, idk I'm tired.)
Rocky laying on Simon, and Grace being confused on how because of Rocky's heavy ass weight. And all Simon has to say is, "Grace is calling you fat, rock."
Now both Simon and Rocky are just accusing Grace of calling Rocky fat, and Grace has to defend for his life.
Both Rocky and Simon annoy the hell out of Grace, but he wouldn't have it any other way.
do u ever think abt how rocky fits perfectly in grace's arms and grace can curl up around rocky just right. and if grace was sitting down, rocky can stand over his lap and they'd be carapace-to-face. they slot together like they were made to be in each other's embrace
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. Heâs 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 heâs not a child? Heâs barely coordinated!
Rocky: Grace is very sick!! Of course heâs 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 doesnât have the vocal cords for most of our sounds!! And we were WORKING on him being able to understand proper speech but heâs delirious?! The fact heâs conscious is a miracle-
Grace who is visible stressed and half covering his ears but also trying to listen: whatâs going on?? I canât hear you guys itâs too loud- Rocky whatâs 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.
In my mind, monogamy on Erid is very uncommon!! They all watch each other sleep, yes? So before society, someone has to watch everybody else sleep while someone else is busy with other things. Having one mate is inconvenient, more mates means better protection and/or more offspring!!
âWhy do they need more mates to watch them sleep, canât their friends do it?â Yes yes I hear your cries, however. When an Eridian is asleep they are completely paralysed, completely vulnerable. You arenât just going to trust any old person to watch you sleep, are you? Youâd want people you love and trust to do so!! Which is reserved for either family (when an Eridian is young) or a mate.
âBut Rocky only has one mateâ I hear you I hear you, but I give you this, Erid is a fully functioning society now! And in societyâs, people invent new and contemporary ways to have relationships! So monogamy as a concept would bloom upon no longer having to worry about being eaten while you sleep. Even if it is relatively rare and perhaps seen as a bit odd.
Once Erid forms a functioning society these survival tactics form into social norms, it is unusual to ask any old person to watch you sleep, as that is a sign of deep trust and connection. Which is usually reserved for a mate. Asking a friend to do so can be seen as strange.
However, Rocky has no desire to seek out another mate besides Adrian. Adrian was fine with this, despite being a little puzzled they accepted his choice and they both decided to live with a couple of very close friends to compensate. These friends have no issue with watching their friends sleep, as to them, itâs not weird.
Adrian sometimes worries for Rocky and his decision to only stay with Adrian, Adrian does see people casually outside of their relationship which Rocky agreed with, so they try to occasionally encourage Rocky to do the same. âwhat about that person from work? Theyâre nice! You two would be good together!â âOr what about this person- you two share similar interests!â Adrian just wants Rocky to be happy, but Rocky has never had any desire for more anyone other than Adrian and insists on that so eventually Adrian drops it.
Rockyâs friends and colleagues âraise a browâ at Rockyâs choice, but he doesnât care. He hasnât met anybody else he wants to be with, why should he try to find somebody else if heâs already happy? Rocky doesnât exactly get along with most other Eridians anyway.
When Rocky meets Grace, something shifts. Grace isnât aware of Eridian customs and how Rocky stands out from the rest, and Rocky is grateful for that because in his crystal mind, maybe Grace wouldnât be all that jazzed about Rocky if he had any frame of reference for how an Eridian âshouldâ be
Rocky doesnât act on, or consider, any affection he may have for Grace however. They both have to go home, so whatâs the point?
Until Grace comes back.
Grace trades his entire planet, and comes back for Rocky and now theyâre both on their way to Erid and how the fuck is he going to explain to his entire population that yes, he finally has more than one mate and that mate is a leaky space blob.
"We're basically soulmates, aren't we?" James asked the ceiling.
"Obviously," Sirius agreed lazily. He was sprawled on his back on the carpet of James's bedroom, tossing a Galleon in the air and catching it.
"Do you think..." James hesitated, shifting on his mattress and hanging his upper body off the edge so he could look down at Sirius upside down. "Do you think if one of us had been a girl, we'd have ended up together?"
Sirius caught the coin and closed his fingers around it, letting his hand rest on his chest. He didn't hesitate. "Yeah."
"Yeah?"
"I'd definitely want to be the girl, though."
James snorted, grinning. "Why's that?"
Sirius stopped moving. He looked up, meeting James's upside-down gaze. He is so beautiful, James couldn't help but think.
"Because I wouldn't want you to be any different."
James's smile faltered. He searched Sirius's face for the grin that usually followed one of his ridiculous comments, but it never came. Instead, there was only that unwavering look in his grey eyes, so open and certain that James felt something inside him shift.
"Sirius," James managed to mumble.
Sirius pushed himself up off the floor and flopped onto the bed beside him, as if he hadn't just turned James's world upside down.
"Anyway," he said. "Move over."
And James did, making room without thinking, even as he wondered whether Sirius had any idea what he'd just done to him.
