in my experience, containment breach means that a fandom post has leaked out of the fandom container and is reaching people who have never heard of, or at least never cared about, the original intended subject of the post. I love that the f1 people have

1. somehow invented the exact inverse -- taking a non-fandom post that was floating past and dragging it into the fandom container with them, such that a substantial fraction of the notes are from people talking about something other than the original intended subject of the post

and

2. nonetheless all tagged your post containment breach, as though it started as an f1 post

truly the mystery and magic of the internet 😂

First off: THANK U SO MUCHHHH. And truly. You Get It.

Onto the meat of the fujos: it is extremely funny and extremely baffling. I also love how everyone is tagging it for different ships but keeping the one central guy. or saying it's a 7 word fanfic. I'm sure f1 fandom is having fun, but personally I prefer there to be like. Plot. And words. in my fanfiction. I'm not into motogp but someone I follow has a motogp au where those blorbos are late roman empire princeps. It's fanfiction let's give them magic powers or giant robots yknow? Not just coincidentally seeing their name a couple times.

Be anything except boring.

At the same time because I do in fact know a lot about rpf and fandom reactions I was able to respond in kind, leading to so far my favorite set of tags:

how good is every word of the nato phonetic alphabet for hels tango names? lets see! this is all my opinion, yours may vary

Alfa

i could see it working, but it wouldnt be an early pick for me. kinda mid.

Bravo

very good! a tried and true hels tango name, close in vibes and sound.

Charlie

a Regular Name, works pretty well. not to be confused with charlie of impulses chocolate factory from s8 (thats a helspulse).

Delta

i like this one. great for a particularly sciency hels, ive used it for my hels zed but it can fit a tango too.

Echo

quality vibes. i think this ones really underrated, i havent seen any echo hels tangos and i think there should be one.

Foxtrot

the only other dance option. 10/10 just for that.

Golf

i dont think this is a very good name but i could see it be good for crackfics.

Hotel

probably not.

India

hm... i wouldnt use this one, but i think i could see it.

Juliett

i mean if your hels tango is a girl than its a great option.

Kilo

....... maybe?

Lima

not.... completely horrible. but its not on my list. i could see it in crackfics.

Mike

great if you want a hels tango thats Just A Guy. this is a just a guy name.

November

i guess you could but. why.

Oscar

its a name! it doesnt have particularly tangoey vibes to me though. but you could definitely use it.

Papa

please no.

Quebec

dont like this one but if you're really going to call a hels tango this than you should make him speak french.

Romeo

a good one! has the Sounds and the Vibes. lends itself to a charmer type of hels, which could be interesting.

Sierra

i could see it.

Tango

the og. sometimes he can be the hels, if thats the case then you can use this list for his overworld counterpart!

Uniform

uh, no thank you.

Victor

love this one! used it for my hels tango and it fits him very well. would recommend.

Whiskey

..... why. just, why. i cant see this working.

Xray

yeah.... i dont think this is a good name.

Yankee

crackfic Only. i cannot take this one seriously.

Zulu

the vibes dont click with me but i guess i dont hate it.

in conclusion: the quality varies drastically. there are so many options. if you cant decide just make an au where there are 25 hels tangos (one for each name) it would be really funny.

Actual Literal Names tier: Charlie, Delta, Echo, India, Juliet, Mike, Oscar, Romeo, Sierra, Victor

Sure Why Not tier: Lima, November

You Have to Have a Certain Panache and Swagger tier: Alfa, Bravo, Foxtrot, Tango

Maybe As a Nickname tier: Kilo, Quebec, Whiskey, X-Ray, Yankee

Probably Not tier: Golf, Hotel, Papa, Uniform, Zulu

if you're transgender and need name ideas, may I direct you toward the nato alphabet because like. delta? november?? echo?? romeo is like the butchest name. please consider foxtrot. being named whiskey would be cool as hell. I know multiple transmascs who were a bit too into english lit and are named victor now. I've met people named sierra who were trans in every direction. maybe don't name yourself golf

[cybertronianrebelcorps]

So when I created the Cybertronian Rebel Corps, it was only going to be for my TFP fic. But then I started writing a movieverse fic, I went 'frag this', and put the 'boys' in that fic too so Liliy wouldn't be lonely.

However, I did change some of their names because the fic starts well before modern English is a thing so some of them needed more Cybertronian-esque names. (But they still conveniently correspond with all the letters of the English alphabet because that is just the way I am.)

TFP-verse CRC: Alfa, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Golf, Hirry, Indy, Julian, Kilo, Lima, Mike, Nova, Oscar, Pepper, Quebec, Romeo, Seaser, Tango, Ucon, Victor, Whiskey, X-ray, Yankee, and Zulu

Movieverse CRC: Alfa, Bolthex, Char, Delta, Echo, Fritz, Gearslip, Hardhit, Indent, Joules, Kilo, Lima, Micron, Nova, Onsight, Pitch, Queback, Roamin', Starwake, Tangent, Ucon, Victor, Warpkey, X-ray, Yank, Zero-IN

And since vehicons aren't really a thing in the movieverse, I did make some of the mecha Autobots before Scythe (Liliy) recruited them. Because, outside of TFP, Echo feels more like an Autobot to me, and then I just added some others besides him.

NATO Standard Phonetic Alphabet,

The phonetic alphabet was developed as a way to spell things out over radio communications that may be less then ideal, I.E. a lot of static or weak signal. All the words were chosen because they have a distinct sound that is easy to pick out. Military and police communications use the phonetic alphabet heavily and can be helpful to know for talking over CB’s or FRS (walky talky) radios.

[bwepcoast]

Hey I’m gonna rubber-ducky at you for a bit because I’m trying to keep my brain on track. I've been reading about spelling alphabets because I want to create a fictional one for my GURPS settings. For me that's the kind of thing that contributes a lot toward a believable setting so it's important to me :) This will be a rambly and probably lengthy post (brevity is not one of my strengths) and its gonna be me thinking about spelling alphabets. You can click through if you wanna read that.

So in real life today, the ICAO / NATO alphabet is the most widely used spelling alphabet in the west. That’s the aviation / military / etc. alphabet with Alfa, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, etc. I think that's the kind of thing that would sound stiff and out of place if you put it right into an 1880s scifi setting or a fantasy setting because the letters sound too real-life imo. Like if you were playing D&D and a questgiver was like showing you marked locations on a map all like, "Go to Point Echo and recover the stolen weapons cache, then meet up with Blackjack squad at Point Kilo" you'd probably be like. this isn't D&D this is Ghost Recon or somethin. That’s the out-of-place feeling I’d like to avoid.

So since the settings I’m working on at the moment exist in a time period before widespread terminology standardization across countries, I wanna come up with a bunch of these for different countries, so I’m gonna go look at older examples of spelling alphabets. Maybe those earlier alphabets will have more dated terminology or more regional terminology, and so maybe they’d be better inspirations for what I’m doing.

The British Royal Navy’s radiotelephony alphabet from 1917 has a lot of fun words. Their Royal Navy’s words for ABCD were Apples, Butter, Charlie, Duff. That definitely feels more dated than what we have now but man that’s just SO British. Too British for what I’m looking for. Lots of other European countries called their letters by either people or city names. So for example Czechia used names like Adam, Božena, Cyril, David. A more modern German alphabet uses places like Aachen, Berlin, Chemnitz, Düsseldorf. Some places used Biblical names for their alphabets. Pre-1900 Germany used numbers that corresponded with letters! There’s easily accessible Wiki entries on the Japanese and Russian spelling alphabets but I do not read those languages so it’s hard for me to store the information.

I think numbers corresponding with letters is something that would prove to be confusing for players (and me!) to keep track of so I’m gonna skip that one. I think I’ll identify well-known names and places (or foods if I want some place to have a WWI Britain flavor) within my fictional countries and start there? Or foundational people from history or religion or mythology? I like that as a starting point. Cuz then that’ll lead me into making lists of what common or important names are in different countries as well as what places are in the countries, which would all make NPC generation easy :)

If you read all this then I appreciate that! And whether you read it or not I appreciate the rubber-duckying ♥

[commbowman]

Hal’s voice did not lend itself to panic. He could not shriek or cry in the same way the crew had. His begging was nothing more than a monotone whisper, repeating himself until he’d made himself sick.

Stop.

Afraid.

The voice hiccuped and whirred and distorted beyond all reasonable definition but never stopped. He could still gum words that now held no meaning.

“Alfa, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Golf, Hotel, India…”

Hal was stuck dumb and blind gargling nonsenities with the occasional declaration of fear.

“…the K …. Oweeeee…”

If it could ever scream this would be the moment he would have. He could feel them… tens of them… invade. Crawl directly through what had once been an eye into the greater recesses of a once brilliant mind. Not yet a corpse but they had already claimed his body.

But it wasn’t one, not really. He had no true flesh. His bones were steel and his veins wires. The worms continued to move violently searching for what they’d need. He could feel them wriggle and die inside of him. Squirming. He can’t see them. Why can’t he see them?! Why can’t he— Too far. Too much. Too slimy. Too too too!

Hal couldn’t pertain to what or why any of this was happening to him. He was young and learning— he’d not yet learned a thing at all. But he felt them.

“…why…”

The voice spoke for the first time and last.

Partly based on both Alien and The Last of Us. Following a previous draft where everyone makes it to Jupiter, but their end goal is Europa, much like the Tsien. Instead of finding mostly harmless creatures from the depths, they instead find vicious parasites that feed off of other organisms. This won’t end well...

—

It had been decided, long before they reached their destination, that only two of the five astronauts would make the first landing on Europa. Whitehead and Poole, as a geophysicist and a biologist, respectively, were to take a pod to the surface of the icy moon and send observations to the others.

It had been going well. Frank had been ecstatic. But when something broke through the ice, a creature beyond imagination, he found he couldn’t leave fast enough.

“Something’s just broken through the ice!” He shouted.

There was a buzz on the other end of the line, the other three and Hal all clamouring for answers. What did it look like? What was it doing? Was he far enough away to observe it safely or should they prepare for his return?

As if in slow motion, Frank watched as the giant, tentacled, sharp-toothed monster bit into his coworker. Whitehead twitched and struggled, ragged breathing the only sound he could make.

Frank was close to the pod still, and had it open in record time. He looked back to see if Peter could be saved, and saw that the other had miraculously fought his way out of the killer’s grasp.

Whitehead stumbled to the pod as the creature disappeared beneath the freezing water again, and Frank rushed to help him aboard. He lifted off as fast as possible, simultaneously repressurizing the pod and guiding it back to the Discovery.

—

“I’m going to try to remove it.”

The whole crew was gathered round the table in the pod bay, where Frank had made a makeshift surgical suite.

What he had thought were teeth were actually some kind of toxic barb, and Whitehead had been covered in them. If it wasn’t the slow depressurization of his suit that killed him on the way back, it was whatever the mystery substance those monsters had injected him with.

There was also the issue of a leech-like creature, a living part of the bigger animal, stuck to the dead astronaut’s neck. Before they froze his body, they’d try to remove the little sucker and study it… and hopefully bring it back home if it survived long enough.

“One, two-!”

Frank pulled, gloved hands slick with something, and wrenched the leech from its host. There was a spurt of blood, and the thing wailed and flung itself around, trying desperately to hang on to something living.

“Get that thing away from me!” Jack yelped. He jumped back, accidentally shoving Victor closer. It swiped at him, unable to hang on but succeeding in drawing blood. It then turned back to gnawing on the big rubber gloves that surrounded it.

While Hal kept a constant feed of the ship stored in its expanding memory there were few times he was actually requested to archive footage. In this case he was asked to isolate the feed in the makeshift surgical suite and record. It would make writing the account easier and serve as an appropriate backup in case the specimen was lost.

Hal himself was morbidly optimistic about the creature, its slug like form fascinated him greatly. While the dead of the astronaut greatly upset him he thought better of it- it was not for nothing as his body had brought back a being of great study.

Dave did not share in the computers optimism. He stuck to the middle of the small group collected about the table with his arms crossed firmly across his chest. He did not like the idea of any of them being close to it. Of it being on the ship at all. While they had the means to contain it the prospect of unknown life was not as promising as he had thought it to be back on earth.

It happened fast. Blood. Hands and the gnashing of teeth.

“Shit!”

He gripped Jack by the back of his neck shoving him off to the side of the room, choking on his curses. He turns- Victors bleeding but the bite isn’t as notable as the hole bore into the neck of Whitehead.

“Kimball- your mess. You bandage. Measure first.”He shoved bandages and a camera into the man’s hands, ignoring how they trembled.

The creature thrashed against its rubber prison mindlessly. Unable to last without a host the leech shriveled within minutes of detachment, the exact timing of which recorded by Hal.

“Do you think you can get your information out of that thing?”

Prepared for the idea of alien life but not the hostility of it. There were no defenses and no reason to return to the icy moon. They’d have to be satisfied with what they had.

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) phonetic alphabet, officially called the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet, is a way of using words to replace letters. The first letter of the word is the letter the word stands for.

The phonetic alphabet is used to say letters out loud when they might be hard to hear such as over the phone, or when it is important to be accurate, such as in air travel.

The letter A is represented by the word Alfa (sometimes spelt Alpha). The words for the rest of the alphabet are Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Golf, Hotel, India, Juliette, Kilo, Lima, Mike, November, Oscar, Papa, Quebec, Romeo, Sierra, Tango, Uniform, Victor, Whiskey, X-ray, Yankee, and Zulu. To spell out the name Alice, for example, one would say "Alfa, Lima, India, Charlie, Echo."

NATO first began using the alphabet in 1956 after years of research. The choice of words needed to have a similar spelling in at least English, French, and Spanish, the three most used languages in the (western) world. For this reason, the word the letter A is "Alfa" rather than the English spelling "Alpha", otherwise it would be mispronounced by French and Spanish speakers. Similarly, the letter J is "Juliett" because the French tend not to pronounce the last letter of a word.

Learn the phonetic alphabet. It will make spelling words such as your name over the phone much easier.

Confusing "P" with "B" or "S" with "F" is easily done. Instead, use the words below.

Alfa, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Golf, Hotel, India, Juliett, Kilo, Lima, Mike, November, Oscar, Papa, Quebec, Romeo, Sierra, Tango, Uniform, Victor, Whiskey, X-ray, Yankee, Zulu
