MGH

So many great things to come...!

Steven

I’m really enjoying your reactions to The Expanse! A few non-spoilery things to clarify stuff you wondered about: - Dawes’ (and other older Belters’) neck scars are a result of older vac suit helmets that didn’t have proper protection around the suit-helmet seal. If a Belter was working in space and they were in sunlight for too long, that metal seal would burn their skin and lead to scarring. A lot of younger Belters, like Drummer and Diogo, get tattoos around their necks in the same pattern to honor the older Belters’ work and sacrifice, and to recognize the Belt’s historical oppression by the Inners (which does refer to the inner planets, like Pudgey thought). - Dawes called Holden “beratna” and Naomi “setara.” These translate to “brother” and “sister,” respectively. It calls back to Dawes telling Miller that he has millions of brothers and sisters in the Belt. It’s a term of endearment and respect. Dawes calling Naomi setara doesn’t necessarily mean he knew her previously, but he does know who she is, and is indicating some degree of respect for her. It’s debatable how sincere he was in calling Holden beratna. - Dawes was talking about Miller when he said “You’re just missing the hat” to Holden. Not that it would have made any sense to Holden since he never knew Miller with the hat. - A purple heart in the US military is awarded to a service member who is wounded or killed in action. - I can’t recall if you’ve already picked up on it, but Gunny’s full name and rank is Gunnery Sergeant Roberta “Bobbie” Draper. Looking forward to watching the rest of the series with you!

Hate to be that "well, actually" guy, but just FYI... beratna does indeed mean brother (used in both the literal and figurative sense), but the Belter word for sister is sésata. "Setara" means "star," and in addition to its literal meaning, it's used as a Belter term of endearment. So when Dawes calls Naomi "setara," it's actually borderline inappropriate, given that he doesn't actually know her. It's approximately equivalent to calling a woman you don't know well "sweetheart" or "babe." Of course, I'm sure Dawes thinks it's harmless and friendly, and he may even mean it that way. But still, it gives you a little insight into the kind of guy that Dawes is.

Good info, thanks!

you missed the convo between dawes and miller about the scars in season 1

Damn Jared Harris is such a great actor. Not only his line delivery but his micro-expressions when he is just standing on the side. Such a great character and script given to a man who knew what to do with it. Little info about Drummer. Ty Frank said that in the some of her very first scenes he noticed that the actress in certain scenes behaves a bit awkwardly and he couldn't put a finger on it why. Then he realized that Cara ( the actress ) was putting this awkwardness on whenever Drummer was talking to someone from Earth and she was speaking English. To her English is not her first language Belter Creole is. So when she was talking to someone from Earth she put that layer on the character. It's very subtle but noticeable and just show what a great actress she actually is and a perfect example of how an actor/actress can add more depth to a character without really changing anything. I always thought the casting crew has done a phenomenal job with this show, there are random side characters putting on absolutely remarkable performances and the main cast is killing it really hard. It's really nice to see Spartan getting hooked by a proper space sci-fi. I was really curious to see how they're going to like it and I am really happy to se that they're enjoying it.
