as a woman i applaud their decision to make south the mvp of the dakota twins and as a twin i feel represented by a tacky lesbian using a washed-up philosophy major as a backdrop on her basebook profile

can i request that you talk or draw more about the moi fighting ring or carolina as wash's brain ghost aus ? they seem very interesting ! (either/or you don't have to do both)

you sent this a week ago and im glad you asked. i pick brain ghost carolina from this post

to recap: wash wakes up after surgery and notices after a while that he’s hallucinating. like, there’s something in the corner of his eye that isn’t there when he looks all the way. things aren’t where they should be. etc and a month after that, he wakes up and instead of being a vague shadow in the corner of his vision there’s a scruffy angry 11 year old girl standing over his bed GLARING at him. and from that point on she is a fixture in his life. she goes where he goes. nobody else can see her or hear her, so wash keeps his fucking mouth shut and only talks to her when he’s alone and he’s sure there’s no cameras. for her part, brain-ghost carolina (epsi-carolina?), who wash has nicknamed “lucky”, fucking despises washington. she HATES him. she doesn’t want to be stuck with him, but she doesn’t know why she’s stuck to his field of view (not enough processing power left to fully comprehend her true nature as a sort of artifacted memory, but definitely enough left to bottle that shit up and not think about it). as she evolves into her own person apart from the director’s perception of carolina, lucky will form a grudging partnership with wash. she’s not as powerful as the epsilon AI - can’t power up any armor upgrades, can’t do the on-the-fly bullet trajectory calculations like the delta AI could - but she complements his strategy: lucky sees what wash sees. wash has a human brain, primed to pick out the breaks in the patterns and to discard the rest of the information presented, but lucky doesn’t have to discard that information. she can analyse a situation and point out things wash couldn’t have possibly noticed. she tells him when someone is favoring their left leg, when they have a certain flair to reloading that gives him time to change cover, when someone is playing dead and needs to be finished off. in this world, lucky is part of the reason washington is alive after epsilon’s removal. her processing power isn’t limited because she’s a piece of a piece - it’s limited because so much of it has instinctually been reworked to rebuild the connections in washington’s brain that were literally fried. she’s part of his cerebellum, and his heartbeat, and his metabolism.  it’s only a temporary solution. at some point, epsilon will have to reintgrate with wash to undo the damage that was done. this has the effect of annihilating lucky

watching other lesbians take out their unresolved butchphobia on south by pretending shes a "bad" "character" is a national bloodsport pastime. anyway i think south should get an ugly cookie monster snapback

you know what, rvb0 was right. it's a new millenium. instead of communicating a plot to your viewers you should just go "teeheehee i have a plot... NOOO YOU DONT GET TO KNOW WHAT IT IS just look at my closed hands. and be assured theres a plot here :)"

also you know what rvb0 is also right about? action scenes can't get boring and monotonous!!! how can they be... when there's ACTION! there's..... CONFLICT!

another direct note to the creators: having the camera do something every! single! shot!!! does not hide your bad script it just makes your show look like an undergrad's blender cycles demo reel lol

Every post on reddit is like “my wife left me, so i spent 100000 on a new man cave” and there’s always a storm trooper of some kind in the room. Ive seen this happen so often on reddit that now i associate storm troopers and the entire star wars universe with divorce.

“donut volunteers to wingman”

[2:02] robbie: this reminds me actually of a tuckington fic i read where tucker has donut ask like if wash is gay or whatever but wash thinks donut is hitting on him and gives him his number [2:02] rory: mmm [2:02] rory: ok  [2:03] rory: counterpoint:  

DONUT: Wash, I don't want to make you uncomfortable, but there's something I'd really like to talk with you about. WASH: uh, sure - aw wait look donut if this is about the head and shoulders 2-in-1 again, dont bother, okay? DONUT: Are - what? You - WASH:  - took your advice, yes. and then you caught me at a vulnerable moment, yes. you dont need to bring it up every time we're alone and you need a favor. 

DONUT:  WASH: i'm your superior officer, mostly, but i'm... you know, here for you. and i can tell when something's wrong, i think. WASH: and something's definitely wrong, or you wouldn't have come down here to find me, so. uh. DONUT: What? Nothing's wrong with me, Wash. WASH: [finally putting up his helmet visor and getting up off his knees on the armory floor] hey, buddy, you don't need to tell me that. you're exactly right, ok? there's nothing wrong with anything that you are. WASH: i don't want you thinking that i'm gonna sit here and... i don't know, not treat you right, without you holding my vulnerable moment over my head. DONUT: WASH: look, i can't talk right now, but... i have a feeling you're going through a sort of metamorphosis. on the inside, you know? and i know how scary it is, being honest with yourself about who you are, and what you want. WASH: you've been. you know. a good friend to our friends. and i think it's time to return the favor. DONUT: Your - oh my God, you have a private comms line? Does Kimball know?  WASH: God, no. i use a VPN. Look, it's slow, but it's private. anything you need from me - your good pal wash - you just drop a line. and i'll be there. WASH: : not like, right there. but you know. there. DONUT: Wow. This is probably the most considerate misunderstanding you've ever had around me, David - WASH: your good pal and commanding officer, agent wash DONUT: -Wash. Okay. Of course. Yes. WASH: and donut? DONUT: Yeah? Wash? WASH: doesn't need to be about, you know. [gestures vaguely at donuts chest] i know, uh, how it feels. and i think i wanted a friend who knew more than i wanted a confidant to advise me, or whatever. so... yeah. donut: WASH: thanks for coming down here with me, buddy. honestly, glad you came sooner than later - i was starting to feel like i was the only one on this floor. WASH: [wink] DONUT: WASH: oh, Jesus Christ, that was totally unprof - wow, God, sorry, that was completely out of line for - okay, just... scram, please? WASH: i'm trying to dismiss you as a friend, here DONUT: ...Okay! DONUT: Well, as your friend, I am pleased to report that there are no takebacks in baseball! Or whatever. DONUT: So your comms key is mine, and I will DEFINITELY be texting you later!

[robby rubbing her hands together like a fly as i post this for her]

director alzheimer’s truth: during early phases of his god complex he invented and imbibed of nanobots that were designed to extend his life by adding onto his DNA’s telomeres . however due to him failing basic biology classes the nanobots automatically take proteins off the myelin sheaths to extend the telomeres and all of the events of rvb are his coma dream, actually. except the chairman, who is his hospice care nurse. every time he comes back from a smoke break and the director hasn’t kicked the bucket yet he gets a new twitch

[lesbianchurch]

i firmly believe that rvb0 is scripted the way it is because it’s written by like four people in the same room and is never touched or seen by an outside editing force. i think it’s at least been through iterations, but... there’s a lot of weird assumptions that the writers are making that make me suspect that nobody outside of that first scriptwriting session looked at the script to make sure it was good

and, look, you can make a gratuitous fight scene montage grimdark yet funny scifi adventure! it can be done! it can be well-made! but there’s something to be said for not blatantly rushing through non-violent character interactions. it really feels like the writers can’t think of anything to have them do except exposition at each other and Be Funny. i say Be Funny intentionally: there’s almost nothing in the way of a gag payoff or weird hijinks. the characters stand around and Are Funny at each other, and then there’s a lot of fighting and they’ve also put themselves in a corner by very obviously relying on 1.5 characters to carry the comedy of the show - sure, most of the characters are trying to crack jokes, but that’s not to say they’re funny tl;dr i really wish the writers had an editor (or a better editor, if they have one) they listened to because there’s definitely some tightening to be had. also for being a show run by an animator you’d think there’d be... less egregrious 180 rule breaks lmfao

Details on your meta!fliss fic? sounds sick

[me rummaging through my dms where i harass my friends daily about my cool ideas that hold no water] >FILSS was left alone in the director's chambers. The director shut her down along with the life support, but her safety parameters would have had her destroy her own information when she failed to detect life signs from the director. (like a dead man's switch.) BUT >Epsilon, canonically - incorrectly - is counted by FILSS' parameters as being the Director. However, there is no room for two Directors in her code: there is a hard limit of one Director. There can never logically be a second Director Church. >Epsilon leaves the facility before the Director dies. At this point, FILSS' tally is updated: there is now one fewer Director. There are zero Directors. >The Director's heart stops. There is no hard lower limit to the number of Directors that can be presumed unconfirmed by FILSS at any time. The tally, in some small corner of FILSS' design, is now brought all the way back around to 64^64. >At full power, with all processing units committed, this would be a trivial error to correct. >FILSS is not at full power. She is run on the same electricity that used to go through the life support systems, generated by the auxiliary power sources that have just been manually disabled by the Director's order. > - which, well, has the effect of dropping FILSS into a feedback loop. Her emergency protocols force a hardware restart (error: nonzero value of Directors), which is nearly immediately countermanded by the priority order by the (dead) Director to effectively erase herself and shut down. > WHICH IS A VERY WEAK EXPLANATION FOR "I WANT FILSS TO WAKE UP after 67,998,974,490 iterations / generations and be  A FULLY CONSCIOUS METASTABLE AI and like it would be a fitting thing. because the Director succeeded, in a way, but not with the woman he wanted
