Me when I'm at the old parking garage by the abandoned mall taking selfies on film
Tumblr media
#I literally can't draw the biohazard symbol to save my life but anyway imagine that's there instead of the black circles of void#Caleb might not show it 100% but he is easily embarrassed#In case you're wondering what Cord's hybrid outfit is it's a cartoony thief getup to match his magic#That is to say his magic is cartoon physics (in the protection sense)#WHICH HE DID IN FACT HAVE BEFORE G5 DROPPED. JUST TO MAKE IT KNOWN.#Yes I'm still giddy about it one year later. I did the thing. I did the thing and then the thing was proven to be a good thing. Eeeeeee#Anyway. Caleb's magic is being able to enter and exit screens like they're portals#And also control connected electronics while he's doing it#Caleb is the reason you do not want an internet of things.#But in veneer-verse everything is suuuuper over tech-ified and so he is like. One of the most op characters lol#Shhhh#Listen. He's my favorite let me have this one#But yeah I think the main point is to be like. Look at all this cool stuff. Look how helpful it could be. Now look at how corrupted it is#By this megacorporation playing god. Let's kill and eat the ceo!!!!#Oh I didn't explain the thief part of cords outfit. He stole a LOT of stuff from that megacorp while he worked there#In prep of screwing them over. Hence the cartoony thief outfit. He even stole two prototypes of his own stuff.#Because like. *he's* the one who built the wings and the first portal device#But because he was working under crestfall when he made them they're legally not his. So he stole them by taking them back#''stole'' ... you know.#Veneer#Caleb Oroitz#Cord Motus#Btw if you're wondering why specifically physical selfies... Because in universe every photo taken on a recently made device is uploaded to#A mega cloud owned by crestfall where every photo/video/document is stored. So the gang all take physical photos and share them around :)#No information given to crestfall (and therefore the government) about them vibing in the abandoned industrial district#Because they don't need to know they're there. And they ESPECIALLY don't need to know where Caleb ran off to.#Or that Cord is actually alive.#Jerric helped Cord fake his death and got him a job as a physics professor... It's a whole thing.#Caleb was essentially being held hostage by them 4 20 years (nice) until Bing and Chase broke him out to help their friend Sarah DiAngelo#Anyway it's almost 5am and I REALLY should be sleeping good night sorry for the oc posting it will happen again
