Low Poly In Enormous Quotation Marks 🥰

As many have said he's a nerdy awkward loser with a bit of a crush on Taylor and more enthusiasm than sense, or empathy, or intelligence.

Which describes most spacebattlers.

Like he has little in the way of chararization beyond being like that so he's easy to project on, and easy to write for (write what you know and all that).

In a cast of people who atleast have refernece to haveing deeper problems and personalities, his greatest struggle is that he's bad at social shit. So he makes for a good everyman protag to throw in the deep end.

Like, I am a spacebattler, I got my start in the worm fandom on spacebattles and its offshoots, but there's so much on those sites that just baffle me to no end.

we need to take greg veder away from spacebattles and anyone who writes fanfic

parahumans AITA posts must be fucking crazy

happy birthday geto

marcille really feels like a worm cape in a sense, her biggest trauma is related to death and losing her friends and family to different lifespans and so now in the dungeon she is bound to constantly see her friends die over and over, but its ok! her power allows her to keep bringing them back over and over! just so that they can keep on dying, over and over.

its ok, this is ok

I know people on tumblr looove stories of underwater cave diving, but I haven't seen anyone talk about nitrogen narcosis aka "raptures of the deep"

basically when you want to get your advanced scuba certification (allowing you to go more than 60 feet deep) you have to undergo a very specific test: your instructor takes you down past the 60+ foot threshold, and she brings a little underwater white board with her.

she writes a very basic math problem on that board. 6 + 15. she shows it to you, and you have to solve it.

if you can solve it, you're good. that is the hardest part of the test.

because here's what happens: there is a subset of people, and we have no real idea why this happens only to them, who lose their minds at depth. they're not dying, they're not running out of oxygen, they just completely lose their sense of identity when deep in the sea.

a woman on a dive my instructor led once vanished during the course of the excursion. they were diving near this dropoff point, beyond which the depth exceeded 60 feet and he'd told them not to go down that way. the instructor made his way over to look for her and found a guy sitting at the edge of the dropoff (an underwater cliff situation) just staring down into the dark. the guy is okay, but he's at the threshold, spacing out, and mentally difficult to reach. they try to communicate, and finally the guy just points down into the dark, knowing he can't go down there, but he saw the woman go.

instructor is deep water certified and he goes down. he shines his light into the dark, down onto the seafloor which is at 90 feet below the surface. he sees the woman, her arms locked to her sides, moving like a fish, swimming furiously in circles in the pitch black.

she is hard to catch but he stops her and checks her remaining oxygen: she is almost out, on account of swimming a marathon for absolutely no reason. he is able to drag her back up, get her to a stable depth to decompress, and bring her to the surface safely.

when their masks are off and he finally asks her what happened, and why was she swimming like that, she says she fully, 100% believed she was a mermaid, had always been a mermaid, and something was hunting her in the dark 👍

This pun is so fuckin' bad, and I needed, NEEDED to see it. (Its been a long day and I have hours to go before I can sleep)

It is an abomination, its so godforsakenly terrible that I genuinely needed a full 10 fucking seconds of staring to understand it. Its awful and a I love you for it.
