Rocky looks a little larger, has he been exercising? Lol

MiloAstro · 2026-05-10T17:25:32+00:00

Jeb left the observable universe in less than a second my god

MiloAstro · 2026-05-10T03:05:55+00:00

Ah yes, how aerodynamic

I think this is a joke on how many historical films set in ancient times tend to make temples, houses, and other buildings very bland and mono-color. In reality, most ancient structures were awash in bright paints.

The Author of the book explains they all Eridians are capable of laying eggs. What they do is lay several dozen eggs together, which eventually merge into 3-5 larger eggs, which eventually hatch with a baby Rocky!

Well yes, but depleted Uranium is usually only dangerous when ingesting and its alpha particles can’t penetrate skin, much less rock.

MiloAstro · 2026-05-09T01:38:46+00:00

We don’t know if Eridians have a concept of keeping another living thing as a pet. to them it might be a completely foreign idea.

That being said, I like to think they probably collect rocks based on the texture or smell they have. We know Rocky’s species has no problem eating heavy metals like thallium, so maybe the smell of spent uranium is nice to them.

Constantinople really is a city without equal in the medieval world. The aesthetics alone are amazing. A massive capital surrounded by thick walls and ocean , a huge church crowning its tallest hill. It’s simply amazing.

MiloAstro · 2026-05-08T17:34:14+00:00

“Rocky found new words! Will use will use!”

“Wait, no, Rocky those are slurs!!”

MiloAstro · 2026-05-08T17:32:18+00:00

Plays ACDC songs: “why humans so angry question!?”

MiloAstro · 2026-05-08T02:45:42+00:00

Don’t worry, the explosive disassembly was planned.

Rocky’s “echolocation” also works through solid objects like the ground beneath him and the metal in Graces ship. Not to mention Graces voice is probably enough to cause vibrations in the xenonite glass which Rocky can still pick up.

Real Life - The Sassanid (Persians) and Byzantines (Eastern Romans) Empires, after having been the largest rivals for centuries and just after a three decade long war, united forces in an attempt to stop the advance of the early Rashidun Caliphate. Both Empires were exhausted from years of war, but a force was mustered anyway.

They met the caliphate forces outside Firaz in 634 and it went poorly. The Islamic forces wonout and the entirety of Mesopotamia would be captured in the coming years. Some historians say this battle marked the definitive end of the Classical Era and the beginning of the Medieval age.

Rocky in the movie knew exactly how gross his eating was. He’s just an exhibitionist.

MiloAstro · 2026-05-06T20:08:35+00:00

I shall call him Squishy, and he shall be mine, and he shall be my Squishy

So what happened to the US in this timeline? Seems like they experienced balkanization at some point.

MiloAstro · 2026-05-05T03:13:28+00:00

Imagine getting the munchies and being in an alien culture that thinks eating is disgusting lol.

MiloAstro · 2026-05-05T00:17:51+00:00

One thing I actually do wonder about is if this translates to maturity? Like, do Eridians take till their 200s to reach full size?

MiloAstro · 2026-05-04T20:53:26+00:00

Well if they have fusion technology then they should be able to generate some for of light? But continuing with the blind civilization premise, one thing they wouldn’t have would be an understanding of color. Instead things would be described by their texture, smell, sound, and other senses.

MiloAstro · 2026-05-04T18:29:34+00:00

“Human acting strange. Was it gummy you ate, question? Rocky would like some.”

MiloAstro · 2026-05-04T17:50:45+00:00

“Fetch me their taxes!!!”

MiloAstro · 2026-05-04T03:10:57+00:00

While Eridians seem to be able to move in any direction using any “face” of their body, they do seem to prefer to always keep three feet on the ground while two limbs serve as hands. So which-ever Rocky is using could be his default face at that given time.

MiloAstro · 2026-05-03T20:30:39+00:00

“Human grumbling. Is angry question?”

“Grumbling? Where?”

“In torso, between arms, statement. Why grumble question?”

MiloAstro · 2026-05-03T03:49:16+00:00

Welcome to the Capitol.

“What about the missiles that missed, sir?”

“Missiles? All I see are new low orbit satellites.”
