i wish every engineer a “try going around your building in a wheelchair”
do you guys think that eidolon wasn't able to find a power to heal hero because early on in his career he spent all the time he could in hospitals using the ever dwindling stock of healing powers he had and when the time came he came up empty. do you think he resented all the lives he saved through healing that then proceeded to fucking torture himself with guilt over thinking that single thought for the next decade.
what if someone skyrim pickpocketed all the nut out your balls
GLaDOS: I spent some time researching common human insecurities so I might better insult you. I've discovered that physical insecurities often manifest due to feelings of envy stemming from comparing oneself to others.
GLaDOS: There are no other humans in this facility. Just you. Therefore, you lack a source of envy of which would trigger the feelings of insecurity in your tiny simple human brain.
GLaDOS: A shame, isn't it? I thought so too. Which is why I've taken it upon myself to artificially create a humanoid body for myself so that you'll have someone to envy. A female figure who is taller than you, more mature than you and has larger breasts than you. Gaze upon my new form of perfection and shrink away in your envy. You'll never achieve this level of perfectio- why are you smiling at me like that. Stop it.
if i was a shard i wouldn't look around for hosts i'd just hover around a mirror maze and wait for someone to have a panic attack
t4t + autism may be my new favorite combo.
Oh, you're ok with my sex organs not being what you'd initially expect? Oh you ALSO know what it's like to have that little nagging fear someone won't react well? Oh you understand the issues of being trans in a world that isn't ready? Oh you understand the importance of gender affirmation when I'm at my most vulnerable? Oh you're not making sex specifically about gender roles and stereotypes? Oh you'll listen to me ramble about my kinks? Oh you're ok with/even like the way I absolutely love some words and phrases and use them a little too much when talking? Oh you'll let me flap my hands when you pull my shorts off? Oh you'll make sure that I feel okay with what you're doing otherwise you'll gently guide me through things I'm nervous about?
Oh, sorry, you're hot as fuck?! Oh you're a fucking amazing human being who I'm blessed to be fucking right now?! Oh you're making something that makes many trans/neurodivergent people nervous into a highly safe and enjoyable experience?! You're a super sexy baby who's making the world better with your smile?!
Sorry, I didn't realize I was in the presence of joy incarnate...
Insanely impressive that Clockblocker managed to freeze Leviathan. Crazy feat. Normally getting up close and personal with an Endbringer is a job for lesbians. And Colin, who is kind of a lesbian if you think about it.
That's what happens when you give a little girl Path to Victory
i think important thing to note in worm is that Cauldrons plan fully succeeded. It wasn’t a very defined plan, but i think it’s worth mentioning that Scion was eventually stopped by Taylor (1) , who lived in the USA on earth Bet (2), who was a supervillain (3) for the first few months of her career, joined the Protectorate(4), was modified by Panacea (5) and managed to become incredibly powerful through her synergy with Clairvoyant and Doormaker (6), and defeated Scion using an army of every cape in existence (7).
(1) A character who was raised in a society indoctrinated with heroic values by cauldron)
(2) A society that only exists because of constant active intervention by cauldron
(3) A stable position in society that only exists because it was artificially created by cauldron for non conforming capes
(4) An organisation founded and maintained by cauldron
(5) An inhabitant of the birdcage, which was created by cauldron to store powerful parahumans in case their abilities could be used for situations like this
(6) Two very powerful capes specifically created by cauldrons human experimentation
(7) Several thousand of which only exist because of Cauldron directly
Like, there’s often a perception especially with new readers that Cauldron were incompetent and committed a bunch of human rights violations for no reason, until Taylor had to step in and use her mega cool powers to show them how it’s really done. But that’s just not accurate, because it’s not accounting for how much of the setting is directly tied to Cauldron. Without Cauldron, Taylor grows up in a post apocalyptic world, where capes have no expectations of using their powers to help others, and live even shorter and more brutal lives than in canon. Cauldrons plan was to maximise their odds of a bullshit power interaction being able to defeat Scion, and it worked! Everyone say thank you doctor mother right now
