A quick look at what the rest of Breakthrough* was doing during that Halloween party. We have Rain putting his mechanical arms to use as Jupiter from We Know The Devil, Sveta rag-dolling as Raggedy Ann, and Tristan as everyone's favorite fratricide, Faulkner from The Silt Verses (costume based on unbloodiedmartyr's wonderful design).

*Not pictured: Byron, who's not a fan of Halloween, and who when switched in is just in his normal clothes with a piece of paper reading "last minute costume" taped on. Also not pictured: Chris, who already looks like a Halloween monster half the time and so didn't bother to get a special costume/form.

It's a shame Lily wasn't around for Kenzie's breakdown after Tristan died. She could've swooped in to go "when you ask a girl out and she says no, the correct response isn't

it's

and then you promise to do violence for her until she dates you for real!"

Hello, PHO user. Before you is a PHO post asking you to name a female cape. You have unlimited time to tag a female cape, NOT a male one.

Begin.

Been heinously sick this week. It’s getting desperate… I’m coping with Amy.

This half assed comic came to me in a feverish haze:

The Dubious Dallon strikes again

[wannabewallflower]

"I don’t think I’m human, doctor, because when Gold Morning happened, she put me back together [...] She told me that when she made that body, larger than mine, the sprawling, broken, wretched thing, raw materials were harvested from stray cats, dogs, and rodents.  Birds, bugs, other things.  People’s household pets that were left behind after Leviathan attacked."

– Victoria Dallon in Torch 7.2, Ward

Gave in and doodled Tattletares

A friend just said a drawing of Taylor looked like Weird Al and now all I want it is a pic of Taylor doing this

[ewingstan]

We talk a lot about how Taylor's actions are shaped by her power; how being affective against anyone requires her to be uniquely brutal. She can't stop a threat just by touching them like Clockblocker, if she needs to disable someone its inevitably gonna be with horror movie tactics. But I haven't really considered how much that's a general problem in parahumans. I mean, Vicky's whole conceit from the word go has been dealing with Superman's World of Cardboard problem without having the control and finesse needed to avoid tearing people apart*.

Honestly, "superhuman is an incredible fighter but can't fight without risking killing or maiming someone" seems like it should be a more common part of superhero deconstructions. I mean, its already hard to avoid seriously hurting someone in real-world fights, to the point that most people could name half a dozen famous pseudo-accidental killings without really needing to think about it. Enough Homelander-style "these guys would just like to bathe in a bloodbath" deconstructions, where's all the other "these guys would prefer to just stop someone but inevitably turn all confrontations into a bloodbath" stories? The only one that comes to mind is the start of Zdarsky's Daredevil run, but I might be missing a few big ones.

*which her tendency to see violence as the answer to every societal problem doesn't help with.

you could grind meat on those
