au - my womb a hollow. you it's brightest light

just imagining Jake staring at his baby, a few hours after he was born, wondering how the hell he got here, considering those few hours ago, he didn't even know he was pregnant. or that he was still even truly capable of getting pregnant. but he honestly can't even think about it at the moment, cause his baby is tiny :

Jake going between feeling sick with anxiety at the sight of his baby, only find the one thing that brings him any comfort is holding him close, knowing he's warm and breathing, and knowing he feels safe and content:

Jake finding the light in life again, even with the war impending, after his baby is born, because for the first time since he woke up, the first time since he truly understood the world, he has hope for his future:

Neytiri seeing her lover and his child sleeping contently from the window, and she's gonna go bother them:

Jake seeing how extra itty bitty Bug is, when he's in his avatar:

Jake and Neytiri going to say goodbye to their boy before battle, Neytiri promising to come back, while Jake is sick with fear:

Jake and Neytiri hearing Grace call out over comms that refuge has been breached, she is wounded, and Bug's isolette Is breached:

Jake realizing he's going to have to kill his son's father, and Neytiri making sure the last words Quaritch ever hears, are that his son will be hers:

Jake and Neytiri finding Grace, who just barely managed to patch up the isolate long enough for them to be found, before passing out:

Jake and Neytiri bringing their month old baby boy to Eywa

Jake and Bug being blessed with Pandoran lungs:

Neytiri getting to welcome Jake and Bug back into the village, offically, as one of The People:

Neytiri making sure she has a very very smart baby:

.

Bug will survive on Pandora by being blessed with Pandoran lungs just after the Battle of Ayram Alusìng. There was worry he could have internal injuries— his lungs burned and throat burned by the gases of Pandora, as well as hypoxic injuries being a near given —after ground forces invaded the refuge where he was being hidden by Grace, amongst other children, and damaged his isolette. Grace was mortally wounded trying to protect him, though she did manage to patch his isolette enough to save his life.

after failing to save Grace, there was an added desperation to save the boy.

it was then decided that Jake would attempt to carry his son through the Eye of Eywa. he was willing to give his own life to do so, even if he kept that thought to himself.

both end up blessed with Pandoran lungs, so both can remain both Human and Pandoran, while Jake can still transfer in and out of his avatar. this does cost him his legs, as his now blessed body rejects the human interventions and tech that reversed his paralysis.

but it's worth it, because his little Bug is ok. his baby will live. and he stills has his avatar. they'll manage to get by just fine.

"grace never forgives stratt!" "rocky hates her!" no, i think grace comes to understand pretty fast that he wasn't sent because his life was worthless or because he had nothing holding him to earth. he was sent because he truly was the only person for the job, there was literally no other option and time was running out, and i think grace and rocky both come to understand that.

i think that if grace ever met stratt again (which could never happen, there's no way grace is leaving his home and his partner. but if he did meet her again, with rocky at his side, obviously), she'd say with tears threatening to fall 'i wish i hadn't had to violate you so,' and he'd wrap his arms around her, and she'd cry for the first time in a very very very long time, and he'd cry for the fifth time that week

'i don't forgive you 'cause there's not anything to forgive. you saved the world as much as i did. as much as rocky did.'

'two worlds,' rocky would add, leaning against grace's legs, radiating comforting warmth through his exosuit

'yeah, it sucked. i was scared. i hated you for a while. but if our positions had been reversed...' he pauses. 'no, let's be real. if our positions had been reversed, earth would be a snowball by now. i could never be as organized as you, are you kidding? but in theory, i... I'd have done the same thing to you. and i'm always gonna remember what happened, but i don't blame you. because you didn't do the wrong thing.'

her getting that moment would be so. so cathartic. and she kind of got it when she saw grace's video logs and he says she was right. but that woman deserves to be hugged and explicitly outright told she isn't to blame alright i love her so much

god just. eva stratt is as much of a sacrificial lamb as grace but she doesn't get any recognition or exoneration, she gets sent to prison and reviled, and for what? for the crime of doing what she was tasked to do, the sacred task to save the earth no matter what? fuck. the scapegoat is never mourned as the lamb is. and for what? the transgression of having been born a goat?

I think they're actually quite similar and it's making me ill

they're both so brave and endured so much and sacrificed so much to save others and they're so kind

"grace. grace! grace give attention. rocky perform human ritual of escape closet now. statement."

"come again?"

"i learn more from thinking machine. human gender preference. attraction to same gender, means word 'gay.' all eridian same gender." rocky stands straight up. "rocky come out to grace now. all rocky plural gay, statement."

"...wow, that's... rock, i'm not sure it makes much sense to apply human ideas of sexual orientation to a monogendered species."

a long and judgmental pause. then:

"grace HOMOPHOBIC, question????"

Still thinking about how Grace was always treated as disposable. Kicked out of his passion field for his honesty—underpaid as a (very good) teacher, to the point he can’t afford a car—left alone in a room full of argon with a sample that might kill him, while all the indispensable guys who put him there stood on the other side of the glass and watched. Shoved screaming into a mission that would kill him. And then, then this bonkers little alien who just met him gladly trades years off his life (via extended return mission) to save him. Runs burning through deadly air to keep him from dying. Chooses finally to weave their lives together forever and recreate Grace’s best dreams of Earth to make him happy. No wonder Grace told Rocky he doesn’t have to get him a gift, he’s given him everything. To one little spider guy, Grace is irreplaceable. That’s love.
