Ah. Re-read Interlude 29, where we get the “what-if the Thinker survived” scene. And uh, yeah. I didn’t see a single mention of what its avatar looked like. It refers to itself without any gender, which I do like though.
But I also saw that Eden was tagged in the chapter? And I thought the fandom had just come up with the name? So that’s neat.
So, probably the fandom, and myself, think/thought the entity is feminine because of the name, the likely hood it would choose a “similar yet contrasting form” to go with Scion/Zion/Whatever-the-fuck, and the connection people drew between Wretch-Victoria and the flesh garden. And figured that they looked nearly identical, down to the feminine features.
Some doctor after Gold Morning, looking at Theo's many, many badly healed scars: What quack of a doctor did the sutures on these?
Theo: Well, she was just a student.
The doctor: Even so, any competent medical student should be capable of better than this.
Theo: Oh, no, fashion student, not med student.
The doctor: ...what?
Theo: She did all of them at once though, so at least it was quick!
The doctor, to herself: jesus fucking christ
Really funny how the needles pop out and it just fades to black.

#fanon is canon#surprisingly enough#I do get why Cauldron never thought of psychological warfare now#Because the entities are TRULY alien#They’re a bunch of multidimentional crystal things that are sentient by theselves#but also group together into a hive mind#worm spoilers#Which is really nice because most fiction about ‘aliens’ just make them very human-like in thought#even the ones that look nothing like a human#So Cauldron was TOO smart for once

Oh, I will obtain as much Chlorine Trifluoride as it takes for Kris to burn it down.
ClF3 laughs at the concept of “non-flammable.”
Kris saying they would burn Lesslos' light world equivalent while not knowing that he's their dad's wedding ring is sad. I can only imagine how conflicted they'd be. Hating Lesslo with a passion, but also not wanting to destroy the ring.
They would definitely be conflicted about it for a minute or two. Then get REALLY frustrated by the fact that gold doesn't burn.
#Chlorine Trifluoride#I have no idea how I’d get it without some alphabet agency breaking down my door#But to kill Lesslo#I will go to any length#Asbestos sand water#ALL are flammable with this#actually with water it forms hydrochloric acid#there’s videos of scientists testing this on ‘safety’ equipment#you are never safe with this stuff#ClF3

It’s supposedly to show that Taylor has become no better than Alexandria, willing to do anything if it means “saving humanity.”
Because she’s terrified that literally anyone could be the one Jack interacts with and causes the end of the world. I mean, she would’ve thrown hands with Eidolon because she has absolutely no idea who it could be. (My money was on Taylor, for the record.)
Sparing the baby from eternal torture would be a valid justification, but Taylor thinks that the woman who was undergoing an eternity of torture should have kept her damn mouth shut. So I doubt she was thinking of sparing Aster from that.
I didn't expect the baby shooting to happen so casually. And not much explanation to why. So she wouldn't come under Gray Boy's power? Or maybe there is more I missed or that is coming.
#the ends justify the means#right?#child murder#fiction#Eidolon musta been burning to say who it was#But nooooooo#Let’s not fucking tell anyone so everyone’s caught with their fucking pants down#i get setting it off then might have been the best time#But fuck#Maybe have a PSA ready to go?#Also find it funny that things could’ve ended in about fifteen minutes#Ultimate Anti-climax#Boy would Cauldron’s faces be fucking RED#worm#wildbow#parahumans

First, nothing says Parian didn’t get a crash course in medical stitching at some point, being in fucking Brockton Bay even before it went post-apocalypse. So her knowing power-assisted first aid seems likely to me. And really, how different is skin from cloth anyway? :)
Secondly, what the hell do you mean, “Khepri did mass force-femming?”
All I remember is that she got every changer to go “silver skinned humanoid” The one who I vaguely remember being androgynous when they shifted was that Traveller the Simurgh pulled to make sure Echidna got made by them splitting the vial.
Are you saying I read a non-pornographic work with mass force-feminization and didn’t notice?

Correct. He’s just coping, in a really weird way. “I mean, it was bad but not really that bad. Like a four. Out of sixty-nine.”
Fascinating for alec of all people to float the idea that second generation capes "get off easy" when it comes to trigger events. Boy, no you absolutely did not
#regent#whaaaaat#I’m not coping#YOU’RE COPING loser#to suggest alec is ever anything but a smooth prankster is sacrilege#aisha laborn#please pants them for the entirety of tomorrow#alternatively#Wildbow hadn’t chosen his backstory yet

Oh boy, I can’t wait for the glut of crystal clear 4k video of ghosts, aliens, and cryptids that will appear in the near future. That just so happen to come out as the same time as A.I. generated videos become impossible to tell apart from real undoctored footage.
Yup, sure excited for that!
#after years of people filming them on vintage camcorders that haven’t ever been cleaned#and any oddities can be explained away as#what you think aliens need to have perfect bilateral symmetry#of course they’d have more fingers on one hand than the other#skepticism#alien#ghost#cryptid#not that I don’t believe aliens probably exist somewhere#and there’s absolutely no way they’d ever find or be able to visit us#just that the universe is more expansive than any of us can imagine#ai generated#ai#fake news

I keep seeing art people have drawn of what the Saviors would look like in color, and well… Exactly how are they supposed to color coordinate when there are no colors? Especially with Insertdisc5 having a cut joke about some makeup including the color “Tomato Grey.”
So any AU that has colors come back needs to have the gang realize everyone is dressed in just the worst colors you’ve ever seen. A mishmash of colors that don’t go together at all.

Have you heard of the Mystery Flesh Pit National Park? This has that same energy.
Cauldron's big whopping mistake
I'm just saying, Cauldron could have really done something brilliant with Eden. Not to say the vials weren't a smart thing, they definitely were, but where was the pizzaz? The showmanship? If I had stumbled into the unknowable vast corpse of an alien god, you know what I would've done? Make a fucking restaurant.
You see, they were blessed with the first truly new meat to have come to earth in a very long time. Alien meat and crystal body structures. Imagine the crazy dishes they could have made. Like fuck dude I'd eat an alien if someone gave me the chance. They could have even kept the whole giving people powers schtick with it.
Breaker biscuits with shard dust in the flour they used, Tinker Truffles, Master Muffins, Brute Borscht, Stranger Schnitzel, the possibilities were goddamn endless. Make it a restaurant at the end of the universe type deal where it isn't in the universe proper like the actual Cauldron compound so they still only get the super rich patrons.
Number Man could handle the finances (obviously) and I do believe he would also be a good greeter and waiter, polite but never too friendly. Contessa in the kitchen making the food, Doctor Mother is that lady who asks how everything is going and you don't really know what her actual job is at the restaurant but it is clear she does something important, Custodian would buss the dishes, and Slug would be there too.
They could have had the best gimmick of any cape organization, but no. They just had to make entity girl corpse water in nerdy little vials. For all of that power, all of that planning, Cauldron lacked the vision to properly do something with it.
#mystery flesh pit#cosmic horror#best idea ever#both places where nothing bad ever happened trying to exploit an unknowable creature for profit#the flesh of fallen angels

The Supervillain part. No one outside Taylor’s head sees her as she does. At this point, she’s robbed a bank, fought Lung to help put him in the Birdcage, publicly shamed the Protectorate at the gala, and she’s JUST come in after fighting Leviathan in close combat.
No one sees Taylor the way she sees herself. The Nurse sees a supervillain who’s confident enough to take on anyone, and then win. Imagine if someone who made the news for various crimes, and is actively wanted by the police came into your workplace and then honestly complimented you.
Was the funny look more because "why is a supervillain giving me a pep talk" or "why is this 14 year old giving me a pep talk"

“Will you marry me?”
“Are they going to make it, doctor?”
“Are you happy with your life?”
"if you dont ask the answer is always no" yeah but what if the answer is no plus they think im weird for asking. did you ever consider that in ur stupid fucking philosophy
#NO#why would you say that#you stupid bitch#if you think them saying no isn’t that bad#then you clearly have never asked any questions of import

I wouldn’t call myself a fan of Markiplier, but I am going to watch this because I’d love to see his Iron Lung movie AND I love doing stuff because Hollywood executives/rich assholes don’t want me to.
A little background as to why the Markiplier fandom is panicking about The Edge of Sleep.
So YEARS ago. Mark was in a podcast called The Edge of Sleep, which was adapted into a TV series... Which was never released
Until
Mark made a movie adaptation of a video game, Iron Lung. He's put all his energy into this film, directing, producing, editing, even starring in it. the movie is done, and he's working to get it released in theaters.
We, the public don't know why, but we know that some doors have been locked on the release of Iron Lung, however some big wigs somewhere have promised that if his popularity alone can put Edge of Sleep in the TOP TEN a lot of doors will open for Iron Lung. He wasn't allowed to even say where it would premiere, nor was it advertised AT ALL
So now, Edge of Sleep has shadow dropped on Amazon Prime in the US. Three days BEFORE they even told Mark it would air. In order to get this man's work out in theaters this thing has to get to the top ten by word of mouth alone.
So. Watch Edge of Sleep! It's an apocalyptic horror. There are some mild gore warnings (blood, knife mutilation, brain dissection, self harm). Even if you can play it in the background and let it run just so it gets views thatd be helpful.
Stick it to the Hollywood Bigwigs! Show them YouTubers can have an audience! Open some doors for creative people trying to show their work to a bigger audience!
