I love that the Lady Astronaut series takes place in the past because not only do we have characters talking about what they did during World War II, we now have polio on the moon.

Why you should all read the lady astronaut novels by Mary Robinette Kowal:
feminist
historical sci-fi
great characters
funny
marriage between Dr. & Dr. York with “that’s my wife” energy
JUST READ THE DAMN BOOKS!!!

I got thinking too much about Marwa from What We Do in the Shadows again and how she was canonically making observations of Jupiter and Saturn in the 1200s. Then I thought about how Elena took Damon to go watch a meteor shower, and I decided that Marwa and Elena should get away from all the vampire drama B.S. in their lives and go nerd out about astronomy together, and this moodboard sort of happened. I also thought about how Elena becomes a doctor and went ah, they are both women in STEM! So I ran with that as a theme too.
But yeah, Marwa needs a friend who will actually support her interests and engage with her intellectually (no shade to Nadja and the Guide, I'm glad they had a fun weekend watching Mamma Mia together which was literally the only time we got to actually see Marwa happy onscreen, but they have never demonstrated much interest in science that I can recall and I want Marwa to have an astronomy buddy), and I think Elena would be fascinated by her and her perspectives on astronomy from centuries ago, and they could learn about modern astronomical advances together. If I find the time and energy I might even write fic about it, but for now, here is a moodboard so that we can all bask in the vibes of my beautiful crossover vision together.

trying to fix my sourceless but paralyzing sense of dread and despair by counterbalancing having slept through most of the daylight with sitting in front of a sun lamp at 7pm, which can only possibly help and will definitely not do even weirder things to my circadian rhythms
