why are all these modern aus for the Odyssey set in a high school. where's the retelling where Odysseus is just a guy lost in an airport who keeps missing his connecting flights home due to a comical series of delays and disgruntled airline employees
i love how the forward of every hitchhikers book is like, "yeah this book has no fucking plot. it has no fucking coherent characters. but are you really here for the plot or for the shits and giggles?"

kudos to Ryland Grace for finally being the true “I am alone in space” representation we deserve by sobbing his eyes out every chapter. Relatable. I do that and I’m not even light years away from my bed
autistic shiro is probably my favorite hc ever so heres a list of traits i noticed in him. feel free to add more im going off memory
- he comes off as unintentionally rude or curt in some scenes ive noticed
- hes probably the least expressive out of the main cast
- his voice inflection also stays generally the same? at least to my own autistic ears
- likes doing things his way which can just be stubborness but also autistic “i know this way so its good”
- hes pretty considerate and sympathetic but doesnt seem to be able to relate to others much
- has a pretty strict routine of what we see
- special interest definitely space and piloting

(voice of a girl who's already weird about it) can i be weird about this
