The Mechanic is soo funny to me. He's a Southerner, he's a trucker, he has a robot arm and his truck has several, he hates Zane for NO reason, and his ass is always picking fights.

Honestly, it's a little hilarious to think about the fact that, seemingly, the reason the watchers chased Grian after he fled the colony was basically the equivalent of them going "Oh No! The baby! He's gonna get himself killed all on his own!"
I've always mentally likened it to an abusive family who does deeply care but the dynamics are just so fucked that it doesnt even matter, yknow??? These are entities that essentially told Grian-- and hold the deep-seated belief-- that he can never survive on his own again. That he has to give up his independence and live within their control, their rules, all to help bring their population up. And theres the additional horror that if he had stayed, they wouldve viewed their experiment with him as a success, and he would've eventually been forced to do the exact same thing to another Player. The dynamics were just SO unhealthy and horrific, and so he very understandably ran at the first opportunity that presented itself.
Idk theres just a very specific horror to me in being chased and trapped, but out of genuine perceived care, because the disregard for your feelings isnt even something that's intentionally malicious. But a cage is still a cage, and losing your autonomy is still losing your autonomy, no matter how good someone else's intentions are. So to me, the Watchers are basically like Grian's extended abusive family, who would try and force him back in a heartbeat if they happened to find him again

*whips out the belt sander* time to trans the gender-
Petrosapiens being rocks (plus having crystallokinesis) means they probably have different transition methods- some options are worse than others: introducing Makarat as my resident transfem, featuring Chio of the original trio and mentioning Tetrax who doesn’t have spines despite that being a secondary sex characteristic of male petrosapiens.

thinking about eyrie and love and hmmmm they aren’t…afraid of love as much as they are afraid of the power of love. Afraid of how blinding it is, the all encompassing way it feels and the drive to protect that comes from it. It’s those feelings that drove them to become and imperial—blinded them to the wrongs they were doing even though they knew from the start that what they were doing was never going to protect anyone. Not their homeland, not their children—not even the ones they didn’t know had survived childbirth. (which that is a terrifying thought they bury wayyyu deep down).
they made those mistakes out of a false sense of hope and the idea of doing the right thing, because protecting the people you love is always the correct thing to do. They protect the forest, but more their people within—a duty driven into their head since they were in their early teens. Eyrie loves—they love fiercely and beyond reckoning, but at the same time they are terrified of those feelings. What they might do for love and if they’ll regret those choices later. They’ll have the time to look back and regret it half a century later. Eyrie is troubled and regretful of their past, but they stand so immovable as to not make a mistake again. which means they don’t move forward; they’re guarded, they distance themselves behind a veneer. They fool themselves into stagnation being the better of the options. I don’t think they truly know how to move forward much anymore
