defiant’s autistic rizz to dragon: you would be hot as like, a text to speech program. like microsoft sam. or like a flight computer. need you in my helmet giving me GPWS callouts.
(this counts as degradation and she gets off on it)
as a fandom i know we love trans!taylor hebert to death. but as a self-loathing trans woman myself i feel like she doesn’t quite fit the bill? it’s because of the way wildbow wrote her, for sure, but it’s definitely different then her bisexuality (or rather her denial of her bisexuality.)
if i had to describe it, the way her inner monologue works in regards to gender is somewhere in between feeling transmasc and feeling transfem. like it’s a bit of both. she could go either direction.
all this to say: nonbinary skitter canon
Reqr asked for hypothetical harry or kim tattoos. Harry pre amnesia would have some uh. Dubious bird tattoo i think. Heraldic and questionable. (They look great tho sigh)
A shitty stick n poke mc and the communist antlers drowning the suzerain sun in its own waters.
if i was coil i would’ve gotten bottom surgery in one timeline and kept the set i liked more
realized that while steban wants to be assaulted by police (or other armed forces serving the interests of capital) for being a revolutionary, ulixes' most desired thing about being a revolutionary is being the one who attacks.
idk something about wanting to suffer for the revolutionary cause or wanting to make your enemy suffer. willing to sacrifice yourself on the altar of revolution or willing to lay other people on it. being tormented or being the one who torments. passively enduring what revolution brings or actively shaping it.
being shot at or shooting back. i think this piece of dialogue is illustrative of what i want to say:
steban doesn't just say yes, he says "especially then". for him, a true revolutionary is defined solely through the suffering they've faced. and it's not him who brings up fighting back, it's ulixes; because that's what for ulixes being a revolutionary means.
and while steban is trying to avoid the thought of war crimes nilsen commited, ulixes seems to be not only approving of the violence communards caused, he wants to do the same. the most terrifying thing about revolution for steban is deaths and suffering of other people; but for ulixes, it is exactly the thing he craves for.
steban doesn't want to kill, whether that means shooting someone in front of you or sending your fellow communards to their deaths. for ulixes, there's little to no difference whether it's the bourgeoisie or the communists who are sacrificed for the revolution.
all in all: steban doesn't really want to do anything, he dreams of becoming a martyr, not a soldier. and ulixes wants to become a soldier, but, i think, not a martyr.
the thing about me is that I will absolutely shamelessly give my favorite little minor character who has cubed me a disproportionate amount of narrative significance than he actually has, BUT THE PROBLEM WITH THAT is that he (Clockblocker) actually honestly and truly DOES have one of the biggest impacts of any character.
like i know they were not giving out medals for the sake of preventing infighting after the leviathan fight, but Clockblocker damn well deserves one because quite literally everyone would have died had he not frozen the Titanic Waterbending Godzilla in time for several whole minutes allowing the remaining capes critical time to re-strategize and hold out for Scion. Additionally. everyone Also would have died had Skitter not been able to utilize his power to slice That Thang (Echidna) in twain. Two (2) S-Class threats within months of each other and he turned the tides on both of them.
it’s like. it’s honestly a testament to what Tattletale was saying about how a lot of parahumans never really get the chance to understand the full extent of their powers because they’re never under the right circumstances to do so. because if you think about it purely in situations like the bank heist or party crash early on in the book, Clockblocker’s power really isn’t anything to write home about. and if they lived in a reality where things like that were the biggest threats around he would probably stay that way!
but they don’t live in that reality. they DO live in a world with towering kaiju endbringers that threaten the planet every three months and they DO live in a world where monstrous parahuman accidents like echidna are likely to pop up, and it’s because of this product of circumstance that you can make a legitimate case for Clockblocker having one of the strongest powers in terms of utility. he lives in a reality where his niche is allowed to shine!
and it’s this kinda thinking that makes the fact that he is—at the end of the day—Just A Minor Character, so incredibly compelling because it further illustrates the idea that This Could Be Anybody. under the right circumstances, any parahuman could find their otherwise mid-level power suddenly become the most pivotal role in a survival setting. or the most dangerous! it opens up the floor to a wealth of possibilities.
like say what you want, and i do concede that of course my darling boy Dennis doesn’t hold the same narrative significance that any of the major characters do, but when you look at his role in the story from this perspective, He Really Is Kind Of A Big Deal.
thinking about prt official branded sex toy merchandise. forget armsmaster underwear. what about alexandria fleshlight.
AITA for not telling my (15F) brother’s (20M) ex-gf (18F) that he got nuked by god (???M(aybe))
my brother n his ex were helping out during the scionpocalypse and he died, very sad. anyway i decided not to tell her bc i knew shed freak out and be totally useless. now shes gone insane for other reasons its complicated and i dont know if i should of told her while she was still capable of understanding human speech. aita?
wildbow will really be like “heres my newest character dykey mcdykeface shes a straight woman” and her inner dialogue sounds something like:
i used to date boys in high school but then i realized how ANNOYING and CRINGE they are so i prefer the company of women these days. women are so beautiful and amazing. i love their perfect bodies and how much more like people they are then men. i hope the right guy comes around though so i can have his kids
and he KEEPS DOING THIS.
LITERALLY WHAT IS HIS FUCKING PROBLEM
Ohhhhh my god u saw some ship/fic/fan content you didn’t like today? should we tell everyone? Should we throw a party?should we invite ronald regan.
i think it would be really funny if all of the undersiders were trans. i have a vision here. taylor is a transmed. brian is also a transmed, but only for himself, he's chill about everyone else. aisha shows up with a different set of neopronouns every day and if someone accidentally uses yesterday's xe/xyr instead of today's stab/stabs/stabself stab starts blowing airhorns over their sentence. lisa passes flawlessly and taylor is really mad that she's better at being a hot girl than her + won't stop staring at her tits, just like in canon. alec is amab and uses he/him pronouns and calls himself a guy so to the untrained eye he may look cis but there's more gender going on in there than your flimsy mind could ever fathom. when he runs into panacea pre-wretchening he tries to get her to do some really fucked up shit to his genitals despite knowing about the sister mindrape thing bc there's something wrong with him. every day brian gets a phone call from lisa like "bitch ripped another person apart with her dogs for misgendering her you say. To shreds, you say. Eaten Alive, you say." and it's making the prt really mad at them but no one wants to tell her to stop
what’s with the disco elysium/worm fandom overlap on this site. can i pander to u guys.
Tattletale x Disco Elysium isekai. could lisa solve the case with her power. what kinda hinjinks could she get up in martinaise.
alternatively;
Harrier in Brockton Bay. Just bumbling around and somehow solving all the problems. I think I could stand yet another fix it fic if it was Harry. his ass could get the ferry running again within a week.
I dont want to date cis people anymore because i hate being comforted like "oh dont worry im attracted to trans ppl too ;) your transness is okay with me and i totally dont think youre gross ;)" like i want it to be assumed that my transsexuality is th hottest thing abt me and isnt smth to be addressed as a flaw. lol. Anyway t4t rulez forever 👍
me saying bye to my trans masc friends as they depart for jupiter to get more stupider
in my thinking about ya lit era (rereading inkheart) & retrospectively artemis fowl is still so baller. what if fairies were real & they had a militaristic cyberpunk underground world & they fucking hated u.protags are the worlds least likable pretentious irish 12 year old autistic cunt & a dyke fairy special ops cop whos his bestfriend and also thinks hes the most annoying person on earth. and his huge also autistic chill butler whose name is butler whos job is killing people.& is his other bestfriend. half the plot revolves around him resolving his daddy issues & when he finally gets his dad back his dad is like ah jesus fucking christ. you are NOT normal please be normal! other half of the plot revolves around irish fairy special ops police station drama.

He did not need to put this in. He did not have to concoct a scenario for this background character to tell Swansong “hey you give off lezzy vibes.” What are you playing at wildbow
very heterosexual of Taylor to meet a mean butch girl, fistfight her, and then spend ages thinking of and implementing ways to build a relationship of trust.
No, see, Taylor is heterosexual according to Taylor, a character who always correctly assesses her actions and motivations. Anyway here's a straight girl who ran away from home to devote her life to Rachel and wears a dog collar to-
