I understand the urge to believe that there's something very sinister going on with Ms Huang (she's severed, she's a clone, she's had an adult consciousness put into her 15yo body) but I actually think it's much much scarier to believe that a child is so bought into lumon's ideology that she's willingly helping to control the innies.

So before I work on part 3 I should figure out what Huzzle’s parents look like so have Sarah and Demetrius McMug/Mug. Credit to @whirlwindwonderland for helping me with Sarah’s name!

They are alive and well! Huzzle just wandered off from its teacher. And to be fair Bauhauzzo’s place looks perfect to nap in

Sarah is an art teacher and Demetrius is a mechanic!

Demetrius is also a pun for demitasse mugs(those tiny cups for espressos). That’s a big reach but like, I tried man. I tried

The way you alchemize a soulless world into a sacred world is by treating everyone as if they are sacred until the sacred in them remembers.

"werewolves are accorded far greater rights in brazil." werewolves are accorded far greater rights in brazil. what in god's name could that possibly mean? if we're still working within a world where the supernatural is broadly a secret to the public, what kind of rights could werewolves be discreetly accorded in brazil? the old ones' base is in bolivia, is there a tension between bolivian vampires and brazilian werewolves? are the old ones in bolivia because vampire rights are more secure there? is south america as a whole a paranormal safe haven? is the uk just the odd one out in this universe and every other country in the world has had a successful supernatural civil rights movement? do south american supernaturals pass around petitions to do something about the sorry state of affairs for british supernaturals? does this have anything to do with why cutler asked to be put in charge of brazil during the vampocalypse? was that a leg of his plan to expose werewolves, to show them as a threat to the public and then make a show of cracking down on them in the country where they were afforded the greatest liberties? am I, possibly, the only person in the history of the world to have ever cared about the implications in this one line of being human bonus content? what does it meeeaaaan.

Longtime follower and I love seeing your insights, so wondered if you had thoughts or advice on this:

I live alone and I'm not in a relationship, though I do date. I'd say ninety percent of the time I really enjoy my life, seven percent I'm a bit sad or annoyed about not having a partner yet, and three percent I get tossed into the Pit of Despair. That three percent can be tied into hormonal cycles, bad timing, etc - even when I know the cause, it still needs to be lived through. Has that happened with you? If so, how do you manage it? I do okay, but it feels like I could do better.

Ah, but the Pit of Despair and I are best friends now. I've sent pictures from the Pit, all featuring me with an absolutely humorless, rictus grin, which does make me wonder why no one else has noticed yet. I have a timeshare in the Pit of Despair. I spend some time there every six months or so, standing in the middle of my impossibly overgrown, dingy garden, and thinking to myself, how did I get here? how do I get out?

And then, as though endurance isn't enough...then your timeshare in the Pit ends. You emerge in the daylight and immediately forget how grey and hopeless that garden was, the weirdly stained, collapsing furniture in the corner and the crooked yellowing plants and that mean laughter you could sometimes hear over the sounds of waving grass. You think to yourself: that will never happen again! I am free! I am cured!

(This will feel so much worse, the next time you're shoved back into the stupid garden.)

That said, I don't think you're going to like my answer to your next question. This is because I don't like my answer; unfortunately, it remains the only answer I have to this question.

I think having some unsettled sorrow, just a touch of existential despair, is the best we can hope to do in this life.

I think that with both rueful humor and deep, deep disgust, which is typically the combo I bring to musings about being a person. Of course it's a little funny---look at the monkey, it's got anxiety!---and of course it's also frustrating, unspeakable outside of bitter cursing, a problem that will not be fixed because quite frankly it's built too deeply into us to be cut out cleanly and thrown away.

(Look at the fucking monkey, you can tell yourself through gritted teeth, standing in that horrible garden with weeks of dirty dishes in the sink and an inbox of emails and friends blowing up your phone with plans you hate to even think about. It's got anxiety.)

I do not have a cure for this. I manage it with the same sort of humor and ruefulness and bitterness that I mentioned above---I don't beat myself up anymore, when I realize I'm standing in the horrible garden again. I know it too well. Sometimes it has an okay wifi connection? I watch some movies. I get done what I can, and forgive myself the rest. I have been here before; I will get out again. I just need to be patient.

Once I'm out, there will be a whole world, I know there will---full of music I haven't heard before and stories that won't make me cringe and emails I will respond to with ease and conversations where I can be light, amusing even. There is a world beyond the Pit. There is always a world beyond the Pit, I just can't find my way back sometimes.

In the meantime, I take another terrible picture in front of the stained furniture, and caption it "Hello from the Pit!!!" with a bunch of exclamation points to indicate that it's a joke, even though it isn't.

I wait.

What’s some behaviours that seeker Lennox do that unnerve the humans or other bots that don’t fly?

The new Seekers/ex-humans sleep a lot compared to the Autobots to the point that mechs were concerned over the newbuilds. It's just the remnants of the human circadian rhythm, Cybertronians function on a far longer time clock, so they'll eventually adjust to it.

The humans think that the lovebirds are too into each other since Will and Sarah are basically wrapped up with each other in spare time. Freaks out some humans when they meld their frames partially together. Meanwhile, the Cybertronians are going, "Yep. That makes sense. Those are newly wedded and bedded newbuild Seekers." It's really intense, somewhat uncomfortable on how aggressive affectionate they are, but still understandable. Some mechs are making secret bets on when and where a poor squishy will see the natural sight of two Seekers going down and dirty.

It took a while for the human personnel to understand why the Seeker pair shower together or have someone else with them. It's a natural extension of their new frame sociality matrix since grooming a wingspan needs an extra pair of hands and it's a pleasant bonding activity. Ironhide is their usual go-to, but they had taken Optimus and Ratchet into their shower sessions.

Some of the Autobots think that Sarah is highly territorial and standoffish since she constantly wraps Will up with her own field and likes a certain degree of space. The Arcee sisters are careful not to stand too close to Will for that reason as they don't want to be seen as issuing a potential Challenge. Will doesn't understand it, but his frame does and likes it since it's a low-key awareness of where his wife and child are. Ironhide is trying to wrangle it back into more neutral feel, but Sarah isn't having it.

Sarah enjoys rising with the sun as she did her early morning yoga routine. It freaked out the Cybertronians how flexible her frame was, especially with her armor density.

None of the Cybertronians are ready to see how blase the Lennoxes are with doing things unarmored, especially when the Autobots caught up with the pair when Sarah managed to locate another vein and she was taking a dip in a geyser. Just her bared legs. Or whenever they shower together since humans take off their clothes, but Cybertronians are able to shower with their armature on.

Oh, and here's a little snippet:

“So besides the wings and chicken legs, what else you got?” Epps asked.

“I can literally smell everything half a mile away,” Lennox took in another deep vent, his mouth parted open similar to an insect’s mandibles, playing it up as his frame shifted to accommodate the air and his tongue flicked out. Epps looked up in wide-eyed, horrified fascination, at the long, segmented appendage coiling in the air.

“Man, you’re just fucking with me at this point.”

“Well, it was chili night.”

“Foyer’s?”

“Yep.” Both mech and human stared at the distant mess hall.

“I can already smell the barracks tonight. Thor will be blowing thunder all night long."
