I officially read the Flatland short story and I'm just saying
Gonna be calling Bill Cipher this from now on actually.
#mostly joking but i did just wheeze when i saw it#what is it with Victorians and using [adjective] Prometheus in their literary works#If I had a nickel for every time a protagonist in a Victorian novel was referred to as [adjective] Prometheus I would have two nickels#which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.#anyways I say I'm gonna call Bill this because like A. Square he tried to bring the fire of knowledge of the 3rd dimension to Flatland#except unlike A. Square who failed miserably Bill also failed miserably but *did* manage to actually bring literal fire#which. was a problem.#anyways#sends him on his way to his 3:00 “get your liver pecked out by eagles” appointment at the theraprism
