MUSING OF AN IRON GODDESS

"you cannibalize my body, i feel nothing but cold iron. o, god, why would you let this happen to me?"

the automaton, been thinking about her story again... she may be making a comeback.

idea of making one of those underwater scooters out of something like a mako shark and using them to swim faster

kind of riding on sharks, except they’ve upgraded them to have handle bars so they can actually steer them and hold onto them

Lauren can absolutely drive. She absolutely can. When she says that Daniel will drive her to confront Tamika she absolutely is just girlbossing. Why drive when you can make the biomachine do it?

i would like to see ur take on the Desert Bluffs Too city council, aka Kevin's old friends Ken, Kelvin, Keegan, and Kellen (mentioned in mudstone abyss 1) as well as Keon and Kelton (mudstone abyss 2). do u think theyre kevins robot clones or smth or real people or what

UHHH.. THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION ACTUALLY... not something i tend to think about much but here goes!

So. at first when looking at this ask i thought there's no way they're biomachines because there's no way Kevin could make one, let alone that many on his own. However, they could very well be surviving biomachines from the strex days, and Kevin just happened to make friends w all the K named ones (that or he named them himself) but other than that? I'm really not too sure on that one, but thank you for asking ::)

You don’t even remember how you became part of this terrible machine. Did you have to be forced? Maybe you volunteered?

You’re certain you weren’t always a part of it.

You’re certain it wasn’t always like this.

If it was, though, what would that mean?

As you can run, you can feel the heat of the machine. It flows from the belly and sloshes around you, coolant and system feed. Fibers to your fiber, neurons to your wire, cables laced from tendons, stretching bone to bone.

Eighteen meters of human and machine.

You pull the trigger and someone dies. Plus twenty points are seared into your mind.

Ecstasy.

You dream of it, of the moment. The little goal seeking in seeking little goals, tracer rounds leading you to a place to call home. Plus twenty points, seared into your mind.

Ecstasy.

It’s not enough. Following an order, that’s not enough. Following orders, it’s almost enough, and then mission complete, and so are you, you are done, the climax of the story, the end of the sortie, finally getting the release of a mission done, bathing in chemical ecstasy as your soul is wrung.

You don’t remember how you became part of this beautiful machine. Did they ask you? Did you set yourself free?

Problem, I am at work but I want to be writing more of the biohorror mech t4t romance story, also, I want people to tell me how good it is but it's not finished and that means I have to write it, but I'm at work.

I hate that in the popular vision of biopunk, "biological machines" and biotech look like gross body horror nonsensical pieces of crap with no rhyme or reason

Have u talked abt your ocs from the tag anywhere? Or the setting

so technically there are two angelverses! in an rp server me and some friends made, we combined two seperate independent original fiction settings we both called 'angelverse'. that angelverse is set in a world where two different universes were combined together by a cosmic collision event, which has massively destabilized society and made the existence of angels and demons known to the majority of the world and not just paranormal research institutions (both government-funded and independent), angel-worshipping cultists, and the unlucky few who just got caught up in it all, and created a lot of tension and conflict as a result.

however, both angelverses used to create this setting also exist as their own independent concepts, and mine is set in a universe where angels are a type of militaristic eldritch biomachine-aliens who use earth as a dumping ground for their greatest failures; the exiled Fallen and the "Reassigned" - angels who aren't problematic enough to be officially banished from the Republic of Angels but who have been removed from their original roles and placed on earth to get them out of the way as they're considered incapable of contributing anything worthwhile to the Republic.

here is a character building guide i made which explains the different species that exist in my angelverse and expands a little on the worldbuilding

naming conventions and an explanation of the concept of domains

an explanation of angelic contamination (CONTENT WARNINGS: discussions of terminal illness, suicide/assisted suicide, body and medical horror)

vessel entrapment (CONTENT WARNINGS: discussions of terminal illness-like fantasy condition, capital punishment, body horror)

a powers and limitations guideline i made for RP purposes, just for fun (kind of outdated but whatever)

Tell me If this is a good idea

The reason why humans seem to destroy the earth no matter what they want is because they are terror former units.

Bio engineered soldiers designed to drop onto enemy.Planets get dug in and make it uninhabitable for the enemy.

On day millennia go a ship Crash containing a whole unit of humans. Fortunately Earth this is a death world.

So first humans die in drove Until they evolved stronger, faster and smarter and fully sentient rather than simi sentient bioMachines.

So how do you think the galaxy reacts when a super weapon designed to destboy entire planets. Whose nature is that of war and only war.

Got stronger faster smarter and self aware. Thank god the galaxy is in the midst of the most grim dark wars imagina.

Whale earth's humanity is one of the strongest Species if not the Strongest, person a person we are still not, but rats running around the shadows.

We only have potential become a great thread. Is good news for us.There's always use foe meat to the grinder.

So buckle up and prepare to be come one the best mercenaries in the galaxy. Is the various factions are willing to pay handsomely. And ignore your dangerous existence.

This is a world i'm creating. I would like input for ideas and even stories From the perspective of People in this world.

Mineral worms are one of the species of worms that inhabit Earth, being the largest known worm species. They can grow to be a maximum of 16 feet in height and can measure anywhere from 100 to 130 feet in length once they reach adulthood.

They do start out as small as earthworms when they first hatch. A single collection of eggs can be in the hundreds, hatching many baby mineral worms. Though, usually only a few of them make it all the whole to adulthood.

They usually travel underground as they search for minerals, but occasionally go closer to the surface for moisture from rain.

When a mineral worm is turned into a train, their vital organs are kept intact such as their mouths, brains, nerves, and stomaches/digestive systems which allows them to power the train via consumption of the minerals they would typically eat.

They are still able to sense the world around them and can even still create sounds that are now called hissing or a shrill roaring sound of the train.

UPDATED: The Mystery of Daniel (Hyungseok)'s Two Bodies: List of the Wild Circulating Theories so Far...

Disclaimer: Not 100% my original thoughts but a combo of multiple fan theories and my own opinions. Spoilers alert, obviously.

BGM:

"Identity" by Jeon Changyeop and Kim Hyunjoon

Okay this theory post is divided into: A) The origin of the alternate body; B) The functions of the alternate body; C) The reasons why Daniel was chosen or why he found the body; and D) Where the alternate body was stored before.

First, theories of the origin of the alternate body.

Origins A and B explain why the two bodies look more and more alike as the real Daniel grows and matures. The others see it from different angles.

ORIGIN A: FUTURE SELF OR FUTURE/PRESENT TWIN

Theory 1

Most popular theory: the alternate body is Daniel's own future body or a better artificial version of himself, which somehow was transported to the past timeline by either a supernatural (Questism has supernatural elements and is set in PTJ universe, you see) or technological means. As Daniel changes and grows, the alternate body will eventually integrate with the real Daniel or vanish.

Theory 2

The alternate body is Daniel's brain dead biological or artificial twin, which will later get its own consciousness (the theory doesn't mention any connection with Jinyoung Park, the mad genius scientist, or how the body will be conscious).

Theory 3 (Update)

The alternate body is Daniel's alternate timeline self and he transported his body to the past because in the future everything was ruined either by Charles Choi or by Jake's brother and he was determined to fix everything from the start.

ORIGIN B: SOMETHING TO DO WITH JINYOUNG PARK (Why both Daniel's real and alternate bodies look like the scientist)

Theory 1

The alternate body is a real person's body, which is made devoid of any consciousness either from an incurable illness or from a series of experiments, with or without the consent of the body's true owner.

This true owner might be an unknown son of Charles Choi (Choi Dongsoo)'s or Jinyoung's. Therefore, the alternate body is Daniel's twin or cousin or whatever.

Theory 2

The alternate body is an artificial biomachine created by either Charles himself/his team or Jinyoung/his team or together, and was either modeled fully after Jinyoung's young self or sampled from his DNA.

Then who's the real son/relative of Jinyoung's? The answer is the real Daniel.

ORIGIN C: SOMETHING TO DO WITH D.G.'S MURKY PAST

Theory 1

The alternate body is D.G.'s original body (James Lee / Lee Jihoon) that was modified through plastic surgery. D.G.'s current beautiful body is his artificial, alternate one. That's why he looks so young. D.G. planned to live with two bodies while running away from his crimes as James. But he failed.

Theory 2

The alternate body is artificial and was created as D.G.'s alternate body, and was injected with his capabilities and memories as James. But D.G. failed to use it.

In theories 1 & 2, maybe D.G. failed to use the body because:

He parted ways from Charles because of extortion, exploitation, ideological differences? And a) he was no longer helped by the CEO, OR b) he set himself free from Charles.

Or his consciousness couldn't return to that body somehow (if it was his original one) so he has no choice but to live with his current body only.

Or he couldn't transfer his consciousness to it (if it's artificial) and had to resort to plastic surgery instead to shed his James identity.

Theory 3

The alternate body is a result of genetic mutation that runs in James's and Daniel's family (a.k.a they both are genetically predisposed to split into alternate bodies at a certain age and are related).

My opinion: and maybe James' side of the family are all gone, bought into silence or were killed so noone could confirm the connection...idk.

Is that why he lived alone as a student and noone looked for James?

Theory 4 (UPDATE)

The alternate body is James Lee's real body that was modified through plastic surgery and other experiments, and the current DG is an orphan who claimed that identity

ORIGIN D: 'LEGACY' FROM GEN 0 OR GEN 1

Theory 1

The alternate body has been around since the 0th generations but was later stolen and/or stored until it was reused in Daniel's era (the fan theorist did not explain who used it back then and why). Charles probably killed its real owner to get it (whoever created it or whoever originally lived in that body).

Theory 2

Charles was the original owner of that body when he was Elite, or before it. He no longer used it for reasons similar to the previously discussed D.G. theory

Theory 3 (UPDATED)

The original body is the body of Jake's half-brother, and the reason why he was adept with that man's techniques is because he is the original body of that man, not the one in Mexico right now.

Moving on to the theories of the functions of the alternate body (Functions A, B, C)

The theories either pinpoint him as a soldier (function A), an experimental subject (function B) or a private property (function C).

FUNCTION A: TACTICAL DATA BANK/ BIOMACHINE / SOLDIER

Theory 1

The alternate body is someone's private tactical data bank just like the "system" in Questism (another PTJ universe webtoon). The skills are 'downloaded' from various fighters including D.G., Gun Park (Park Jonggun), Goo Kim (Kim Joongoo), 0th & 1st generations fighters, and maybe even countless soldiers, mercenaries, or even criminals that we'll never see in PTJ universe.

Theory 2 (mine)

The alternate body is a biomachine weapon/perfect soldier for hire for criminals/ private sectors/ the government in a secret project carried out by either Charles or Jinyoung (idk...I mean Manager Kim features many of the NK-SK espionage and conflict in its plot, and Viral Hit/How to Fight features mercenaries. Both webtoons are set in PTJ universe.)

Theory 3

The alternate body was an alternate fighter body for various fighters in the previous generation, and the memories of the combat skills were stored from whoever inhabited it, plus multiple fights.

In all three theories, the maximum combat capability can only be accessed when the body senses danger, helplessness, or is drugged (in UI mode)

Theory 4 (UPDATE)

The Body was actually sent from the future by Daniel's future or alternate timeline self to assist Daniel and to prevent the bleak things that happened in the alternate timeline(s).

FUNCTION B: ONGOING SOCIAL EXPERIMENT MONITORED BY SEVERAL PEOPLE

Theory 1

The body serves as a guinea pig for Charles's social experiment on human behavior, which ranges from daily situations (school life) to workplace (industry/hallyu entertainment biz) to dire situations (life and death combats).

Theory 2

CEO Steve Hong (Hong Kyeongyeong), aka Jay (Jaeyeol) 's father actually knew about the social experiment or secret military project regarding the alternate body. He probably has been spying on Charles since forever.

In this theory, Jay has been his dad's unwilling spy since Daniel's alternate body became his friend. He's also in a capacity as alternate body Daniel's secret bodyguard both because he genuinely cares for Daniel and because it's an order from his dad.

In both theories, Crystal is an unaware spy of her dad (through her stories to Gun Park (Park Jonggun). And her original body is the beautiful one which is why she makes sure to do workouts in it. The shorter Crystal is the alternate body.

FUNCTION C: A PRIVATE PROPERTY OF JAMES, ELITE (CHARLES) and/or JINYOUNG

(Please read the previous sections about James, Charles and the 0th generation... if you're still here)

Now, onto the theories of why Daniel was chosen/found the alternate body.

The theories are either focused on Daniel's house itself or the existence of person or persons who might be aware of the existence of alternate bodies. UPDATE: The new theory about a future Daniel is also thrown into the mix.

REASON A: DANIEL'S HOUSE IS THE KEY

Theory 1

Because the house Daniel currently lives in was Charles's first lab and his house, the alternate body was drawn to that place out of his storage or wherever, for whatever purpose, and entered the house when Daniel was asleep.

Theory 2

Because of a supernatural connection between Daniel's current house and Charles's alternate body project, Daniel's alternate body was born in it when Daniel was asleep (something in the house triggered its birth).

REASON B: EXPERIMENT IS THE KEY

Theory 1

Because the alternate body was a gift from Charles (as a part of his social experiment or not)...but I'm not sure about this one. I think when Charles said "gift" he meant sarcastically as in "I lost it but you found it and wasted it."

REASON C: DANIEL'S MOM AND THE 0th GENERATION ARE THE KEY

Theory 1

Because Daniel's mom made a deal with whoever made that body (maybe it was not Charles or Jinyoung, or maybe it was them). And she rented the house for her son on purpose to help him turn his life around or she was forced to participate in an experiment because of something in her/Daniel's dad's past (my opinion: but why didn't she recognize the alternate body as Jinyoung's lookalike/as the body her son would inhabit? Wouldn't whoever made the deal with her show her the body first? Or not? )

In this case

Someone transported the alternate body to the house (someone who knew that Daniel moved there).

Or the alternate body moved on his own..zombie-like, out of wherever he was before.

I must admit that Reasons A and C make me scared lmaooo...imagine the conspiracy. Also imagine a brain dead body moving around while...or one that was born out of thin air.

REASON D: DANIEL'S FUTURE OR ALTERNATE TIMELINE IS THE KEY

Theory 1

Because the alternate body was actually sent by Daniel's future or alternate timeline self to prevent Daniel from making the same mistakes that he made in that future or alternate timeline (the war against Charles and another 'great power')

Last but not least, theories of where the body was stored before Daniel found him.

The places are either secluded or private properties.

Theory 1 (mine)

The secret asylum ran by Hangyeol of Workers (Ilhae) behind the plastic surgery clinic, or in the clinic itself.

If he was a real person maybe

He was abducted and experimented upon in one of its wards without his consent until he was brain dead.

Or he was taken there in secret when he was already brain dead before.

In this case, since apparently Eugene (Yoojin) has no idea of the existence of alternate bodies, maybe Hangyeol either didn't tell him or someone else ran the place before they both did.

Theory 2

Jinyoung's secret lab where Samuel Seo (Seo Seongeun), Johan Song (Song Yohan), and Daniel's alternate body are currently being abducted, tortured, and drugged.

Theory 3

Other locations owned by Charles including Daniel's current house, Charles's companies, his house, his lab, James's old house, his old high school.

Theory 4

Locations owned by D.G. (his house, etc)

Theory 5

Locations owned by members of the 0th generation fighters. I don't know if this is still valid since Gapryong Kim didn't seem to get along that well with Charles/Elite towards the end, and Tom Lee (Lee Dogyu) didn't know about alternate bodies.

Theory 6 (mine)

A government lab (if he was created for government military purposes)

Okay thank you for reading this (if anyone does) and I know it's very long etc. This fandom is full of creative theorists. Anyone who stays with me until the end of this post or even at the beginning, I love you so much and I'm sorr
