i love when rocky mirrors grace without reason or ability, and it makes me think grace does the same to rocky. like stomping his foot even though it doesn't let him see any better
grace is introduced to eridian textiles and one is exactly rocky’s color so he lovingly makes a little lopsided plushy of rocky and holds it and cuddles it and rocky is so violently jealous he HATES that thing he hates it he hates it he hates it he h
We wanted to make sure he goes for a gentle almost like “is this real? Waow.. ok” kinda feeling. There are little hesitation moments in the performance
Grace crouching to talk with Rocky is such a small but important detail to me
There’s a big height disparity between them but that’s it—in every other way they are equals—and Grace understands this so he crouches lower to meet Rocky at his level so as to not talk down to him.
Grace that needs Everything out so he can see everything, Rocky that likes to physically hold as much stuff as possible because that helps him work- Adrian that likes clear benches in their workspace and is going to kill two astronauts very very soon
Graces unending desire to live in the face of it all while knowing that he was still going to die is so so important to me, personally
never did he roll over and give up, never did he contemplate ending it, he fought and he lived and he won. he is beyond brave, he is heroic.
