When ur mutuals w/ some cool ass people rb if u agree
my love language is being annoying and difficult and insufferable
i also saw the ''scavs worshipping a bird'' comment and i imagine the idea is based off of the scavenger templars and disciples having birdlike masks. and a weaver is a species of bird. not quite 'worshipping' but since scavengers seem to seek out echoes i imagine it's something similar to that "ooh mysterious entity on a metaphysical plane above my comprehension. i have to be its follower" thing. Boxbird
The traces of that Void Weaver guy are fucking me up, because...
What do you mean there's apparently gonna be a Void deity-esque creature, that does something Creation/Repair-wise with the Void and it has feathers. Some guy in one youtube section said something about Scavs worshipping a bird and I have literally no idea where they got that from, but all this stuff just sets off monkey recognition.
He???
Really though, what I'm expecting is some kind of Quetzalcoatl creature but instead of a serpent it will be another worm. Videocult likes their worms [Void worms (Rot worm), grapple worms, water glow-worms, sand worms, the leviathans maybe from a certain angle, worm grass, the Void spawns/Ripple amoebas look like worms...] and the Ancients + some of their architecture/art reminds me of the Aztec aesthetic.
I expect the Weaver either won't verbally communicate with us or it will be incomprehensible similarly to Iterators before the mark of communication or something like the vibe of the Void worms. Maybe communication with it will be available upon reaching lvl 10 Ripple, which I'm pretty confident will definitely come by. Lvl 9 is weird.
And the uhhhhh...
So weaving is for making a fabric out of threads, right (fabric of reality ass set up). The general approach is that there are vertical threads that are strung on the loom & horizontal threads, which are the ones that are weaved inbetween the strung ones. The horizontal ones are called weft (or woof ha) and the vertical ones are called *warps*.
The most expectable reasons for the Void Weaver's existence is that it will stitch up the tears that the Watcher and Spinning Top made and that it's somehow responsible for the strand form of reality.
My takes are that 1.) the strands exist outside of it and it only utilizes them to create the fabric reality and the tears we create give us the chance to get a peek at it from behind the metaphorical curtain- aligns with the idea that it will stitch up our peeping holes or 2.) the tears/*warps* we create is what gives this thing the tools/space to start weaving *something*. Maybe a new direction? That new cycle Moon mentions? (actually upon checking, that's Downpour dialogue. that most likely doesn't apply here.)
That second one is definitely the more off the rocker idea, but hey. Versatility in thinking is hardly a bad thing.
My comfort character isn't allowed to feel comfortable. Make him regret. Being born.
what I love about those timid handwringing “am I allowed to breathe air???” types is sometimes a miracle will happen and something in their brains will snap and you can watch them kill the hall monitor in their heads with a shovel
genuinely not saying this as a hater but as a mamaposting appreciator: the mamaposting doesn't have to use the "let's ____ with mama" formula. we forget that one of the original mama posts just said "my luminous mama" like you can take the mamapost anywhere. you can open your heart to all possibilities through mama. you can find whimsy in the innumerable qualities of mama
