   Summary

   He catches a glimpse of himself in the small mirror across the room.

   It’s as if he’s been frozen in time. Nothing about him has changed since he last touched the surface of his home planet.

   But of course, that’s not true. Everything has changed.

   He doesn’t understand. He doesn’t know what this means. He’s a man of science. There are rules, immutable laws of the universe, no matter where in the universe one is. Entropy, decay, deterioration. Everything in the universe experiences it.

   Everything except him, it seems.

    

   Or: While on Erid, Ryland Grace makes a startling realization: he seems to have stopped aging.

   Summary

   Missing scene from the book of Rocky finding out how old Grace is, from Rocky’s perspective.

   Grace has mentioned that he is a scientist as well as a teacher to human children. On Erid, only our Elders would step down from their purpose to impart their knowledge on the next generation. Grace must be very old indeed to become a teacher, and to be chosen for this mission.

   • Languages and Linguistics
   • I really need to research more about how transfer errors effect Russian ESOL speakers
   • because right now I'm probably making some mistakes with Olesya's English
   • I have a HC that her English is very utilitarian and she chooses not to faff about with the finer details
   • even though she could get it right if she could be bothered
   • she jsut has more important things on her mind
   • valid
   • But yeah anways point is that I've not had a ton of experience with Russian ESOL speakers
   • And I should do more research but golly I do lots of research already
   • so for now just deal with it I guess
   • Anyway Olesya my giiiiirrrl
   • Ryland Grace Is Not Graceful
   • Ryland Grace and Rocky are Platonic Soulmates

   • Mixing book canon and movie canon
   • and changing what parts about Ryland's life he remembers for comedic purposes

   • I'm not sure where the idea of Lokken having a crush on Grace came from since it wasn't in the book as far as I could tell
   • I mean I read the book and didn't notice but that could be the autism or maybe I just missed something
   • POV Third Person Omniscient
   • And also third-person limited at times
   • shrugs
   • Unreliable Narrator
   • in that Ryland's opinions on religion/science relationship do not necessarily reflect my own
   • Stratt can show some emotion
   • as a treat
   • Ryland Grace is a teacher
   • He is a GOOD teacher and he loves it and that is so important to me
   • As a teacher
   • also becoming a teacher because it's convenient at the time and staying a teacher because it turns out you love it and it's what you're made to do?
   • also me
   • As a nerd this book and movie means a lot to me
   • As a lover of human-made creations and not just letting cgi do everything this movie meant even more to me
   • As a lover of complex morally grey female characters this book and movie meant even even more to me
   • As a lver of the human capacity for love and friendship and goodness this book and movie meant even even even more to me
   • As a teacher this movie and book meant the most to me
   • Also tw child abuse
   • The book doesn’t really mention his childhood
   • so I am HC that it was bad for maximum angst potential
   • Hurt with a splash of comfort
   • is that a tag? It is now!
   • Also Ryland gives his crew cute nicknames. I don’t make the rules

   Summary

   It's coma time. The characters have feelings about it.
