OMG 😆 just read the chapter and it was amazing🤩. Can’t wait for the next chapter! Btw take your time on the next chapter no need to rush this. You got this 👍
AHHHHH THANK YOU! but I don't think I can get lazy w this, yall need closure after where I left off that chapter lollll. It'll be out soon!
YES MORE WILL SHANE THEORIES THANK YOU MY FRIEND!
Fantastic. I never thought about blakk's industrial tech in the lens of him knowing about the surface. Could he have read the journal and found some Shane trade secrets that could've keyed him in on some surface industrial methods?!? Fuck thats brilliant, that so could have happened I can see it.
Also...ugh, time to come out on tumblr but this is worth it. I'm an air rifle instructor irl and know a lot about firearms. I actually buy that the gattler is new to slugterra, because a)they're using crystal energy, similar to sun energy, and their blasters aren't set off by a hot strike/flame to gunpowder/release of intense pressure - so yeah rapid fire in quick succession would be very difficult while maintaining the life and accuracy of the blaster and b) the SURFACE didn't have the ability to manufacture safe magazines for like forever. For a very long time (and they still do today be safe yall) firearms can just...misfire. If you bumped it too hard. Or if you were riding a horse. I'm not a firearm manufacturer, but man, there were many prototypes to the firing mechanism before the common techniques found today. not to mention, gattlers are huge - there's a reason no one in the wild west used a big tank-like weapon, they needed something to travel light with. Blakk's gattler is huge and heavy and only useful in, like, heavy artillery battles. So I buy that gattlers weren't made sucessfully, or were made sucessfully but not many found use for them...till Blakk the capitalist came to town lol
but yeah if u or anyone got more thoughts on the "I owe him my life" line im all ears!!!
the character I am drawn to in this particularly anxiety inducing month of my life.
literately NOTHING is normal about him. Eli's mom? Had to leave somehow. Bestie? He and Tom Por had a massive fall out. Blakk? From what we gather from the master, they used to not hate each other apparently. Jimmo? Straightforward enough, but that leaves the question of what happened to wills parents! like he's a decent dude but also shady af and paranoid as hell and, WHY is he like that? Idk and it's fascinating?!? he's the definition of just being human, and I love him. He's got a complicated history and PLENTY of unsolved beef, because everyone associated w him's got a VERY different take on the guy and they all have changed their opinion of him massively at some point or other. Like yall I WILL write everything but I will especially write TomxWill and ThadxWill I need to explore his CHAOS
also never, NEVER forget, because I never will; Will KNEW about Blakk knowing about the surface right?!? Surely?!? He would find out, either w his son or with the alliance w dark bane?!? WHAT IS THE STORY HERE?!?
give me your headcanons, they lower my heart rate and stop my panic attacks from my executive dysfunction problems.
i love slugterra discourse.
this is a shiny gem in a world that needs more colorful jewelry. i praise your mind and the joy you find that fuels your drive to post on tumblr :)
my only gripe is that he already has a kid he dissapeared so slugterra social services may not let him adopt, but thats technicalities, and you are right regardless
Pretending Slugterra has similar guardianship laws to the surface, in most places you have to be at least 16 to be released from parental control.
Eli is only 15 at the beginning of the series so a totally viable strategy for Blakk would've been to just adopt Eli.
Can't blow up the ghouling depots if you're grounded, checkmate

i made him close some plot holes instead............
I'm sorry........Maurice, my beloved........
Not the Mets Radio making me cry...I wanted a WS so bad but fuck it the Mets have the best vibes in baseball so at the end of the day who really won.
like okay Ohtani be MVP u earned it, we had grimace and pumpkins and my girl and OMG and OMG concerts franchise moments and we had the underdog energy.
And hey, if we only change the staff a little bit? a few more pitchers? keep the energy up in 2025, and perhaps this season could become the start to an Era. Like not just a good year - an actual Era of a few years of the Mets being a playoff team. And I'd love Nimmo and Alonso and a healthy Senga to be part of it all - they have time to rest, now. They'll be at full strength. They can keep going. Wouldn't that be amazing?
I'll return to my 24/7 position as a small-fandom fanfic writer now. Till I see you all in the Mets tag next season,
Mister Rose :)
the demons continue fighting. meanwhile, i have delivered more bad content.
enjoy the first 3 hours of piss poor crack video editing i have ever done. i am sure there will be more of dubious quality.
I agree! We are scholaring so hard rn
I only have 2 additiona considerations. One: all the shane's are secretive, but I think will shane was SUPER secretive and concerned for the future. I don't think previous shanes would have a) not told their only son anything, b) left a bunch of holograms in case they died c) left out crucial information (like dana's perspective of Tom Por), and ANYTHING about doctor blakk...the list goes on. I think this isn't just a shane thing; something MADE Will this paranoid and fearful.
I have a few theories. Will could have carelessly lost his uncle's journal, and someone bad cracked the code about the surface/shadow clan secrets/other stuff (blakk? someone we dont know?) and thats why he's so terrified of another mistake. Another is that will LET someone read the journal w the code (blakk?!?) and they betrayed him, so he becomes a guy who trusts no one, and cares deeply for a very few - and perhaps, if he had the chance to see him older, eli would have helped him regain trust in humanity and stuff.
BUT, here's one harrowing detail that i've seen no one bring up but its haunted me (how it alluded me in the will shane post i have no idea):
Slugterra, episode 2. Blakk and Eli meet. Blakk's first words to Eli were:
"What your friends say is true. Will Shane was a true hero. I owe my life to him, in fact."
...
.........
BITCH WHAT.
okay, lets ignore that blakk KNEW from going to the deep caverns will was alive and was trying to keep eli from knowing his dad was alive. SURE. because somehow that emotional bullshit is secondary to how HOW DID WILL SHANE GIVE YOU YOUR LIFE, THADDEUS?!?
Like we all know they were rivals, but what the actual fuck happened?!? What a fascinating first sentence for your main villain. There's LORE here. Maybe they actually helped each other sometimes, back when they were around Eli's age. Maybe blakk had nothing to do with the journal. maybe he and their situationship had EVERYTHING to do with that journal, and will's shane legacy.
There's so much here. So much and yet we have no answers. All we have are theories, and u bet ur ass im writing out every single one I have. Thank you for joining me on my crusade :)

I wrote this in about 24 hours.
i scare myself sometimes.
ch1 is Twist x Eli, ch2 will be Junjie x Eli. Eli is very aspec. Twist is very morally fragile. i cried twice writing this. i forgot to eat. i couldn't sleep.
so yeah chapter 2 will come out...at some point. Enjoy!
this was hidden in the pictures section of one of the random Slugterra fandom wiki pages and I adore it. Kinda a crime we don't talk about it more!
