"wormblr is dead, there's nothing left to say about Worm" Skill issue. There's tons of things about Worm no one talks about. There's a whole sequel too. And millions and millions of words of fanfiction. And you can always just make more. smh

Thinkin' about how funny it is that Protectorate capes got mad about Cauldron after the Echidna fight. Like, buddy, you work for the U.S. government; sit the fuck down.

"I'm opposed to human trafficking!" No you aren't. C'mon. C'mon.

"Ripping people away from their lives and keeping them locked in cells for years is wrong!" That is literally part of your job, dude. Be serious.

Wait, is ward copagnda? Worm seemed relatively anti cop when I read it. From what I've heard Pact is too.

Everything you said is completely true simultaneously.

worm is anti-cop

pact is extremely anti-cop

Victoria throws petty criminals into an alternate dimension prison colony to die of exposure for smoking weed and it's seen as a pretty chill move.

Listening to the worm audiobook and its wild how many people's arcs and backstories are plainly hinted at but the man didnt get to them until WARD

Parian's power, setup, and payoff is bone chilling and you'll never get it if you didnt makw it through the rest of ward

Appalled murder cultist realising she shares a fandom with the notorious henghost and leaving the cult at once

Shadow 5.12: Victoria Channels the Inner Cop

Shirt that says: "Got my bottom surgery in the Boston Slaughterhouse Nine attack 2011".

If Ward was a good webnovel it'd star March and the interludes would be from her megaclustermates' perspectives. Maybe a shard chapter or two to spice things up

why are there so many victoria interludes in my rain man book. she should be edited out

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

I would have really loved to see what would happen if String Theory had survived Gold Morning. What do the Wardens even do with her running around except appeasement? There are a lot of countries getting close to war with Gimel, and she is essentially a nuclear detterant all on her own. No one wants to kick the country with a woman who can boil your seas. More importantly, the second she got out of lockup, she'd go hunting down what happened with the egg Lab Rat had, and I'm sure she'd manage to find Chris.

Cannot imagine how horrible she would be as a bitchy aunt, there to permanently rub it in Lab Rat's face that she survived and all he has left is this teenage sorta-clone. They would absolutely despise each other. Would be a much more interesting conversation when Vicky goes to investigate his living situation though.

Feeling an indescribable tragedy for anyone who cares about her half as much as I care about March 💔

kinda funny to me that shatterbird's whole damage is a desire not to be a footnote, to be famous and unforgettable, and i've spent like an hour just trying to figure out how old she is because worm cares so little about her. lol. Idiot

Victoria Dallon, after winning a game of hide-and-seek: Stranger 1

imagine being eidolon's shard right after his echidna clone gets spat out and he's like yeahhhh. sorry im gonna need a power that gives me and the alexandria clone cool inverted-color costumes that reverse all the themes of our original costumes. yeah you're gonna need to design them. you have 0.8 seconds btw. like holy shit i would have manifested 7 additional endbringers on the spot

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.

Thinking about how well Worm handles disability, especially compared to most other things in its genre. The way lifelong injuries are treated as a normal part of being a cape. The fact that Taylor is blind for awhile and it's not treated as a tragedy, and how when it's healed by scapegoat it's not treated as some sort of redemptive miracle, but just a thing that happened. Defiant's wounds still being something that effects him even though he has tinker magitech. Kid Wind having adhd and being helped by meds but then having to go off them due to side effects. Taylor seeing paralysis as a fate worse then death being seen as a her thing and not an objective fact (and probably being from trauma during the leviathan fight). Genesis's disability being something the people around her care about a lot more then her. Labyrinth and Bitch both being basically neurodivergent from their powers (labyrinth being essentially high support needs, and Bitch being essentially low support needs) with both being able to live fulfilling lives with people who care about them (also that scene with someone trying to baby talk Bitch near the end really hit home for me).

Also, Dragon, despite not being literally disabled is a very good disability allegory. People who don't know she's a machine often think she's disabled. The way her father put so many constraints on her because he didn't trust her, because of what she was. The way so many human characters see her right to live as something up for debate. The way Saint calls Defiant's attraction to her a fetish because he can only comprehend someone loving her as being some strange abnormality. The fact that teacher thinks it's ok to put constrains on her basically because he physically can. Defiant and her being intimate by testing how well they can feel sensations. Even just the way Saint talks about her not being able to truly feel emotion, but saying she tricked herself into doing so, is reminiscent of how some people talk about people with Cluster B disorders. And beyond that, the fact that all of the people who dehumanize her are framed as unquestionably in the wrong. Hell, she had a trigger event so even the eldritch horrors affirm her personhood.

I realize the discussion of Dragon was longer then I planned. But yeah, worm has much better disability rep then anything else I've seen in the superhero genre (probably because it's written by a disabled author).

Also I'm pretty sure you have to be neurodivergent to read a 1,672,617 word long internet book about the sociopolitical ramifications of superpowers. /j

taylor agonizing over betraying the undersiders again, taking a leap of faith with defiant and dragon, and putting everything she worked for at risk for the greater good by switching from villain to hero vs foil easily switching from hero to villain for some pussy

Skitter: starts out wanting to be a hero, but becomes a villain due to her hatred for systems of power and her love for her freinds, as well as her own naïve mistakes early in her career. Later becomes a hero because she fears the end of the world.

Foil: goes straight from hero to villain because she wants to fuck a doll girl.

"Gentlemen, it appears Jack Slash has been... Jacked Off."

Imagine if Victoria was trans, on top of carol probably not being supportive he wouldnt even be able to change his name to victor because of the e88 cape

gotta hand it to wildbow in some respects when it comes to brian. like. we have here Tall Buff Black Guy in Black Leather with Darkness Powers and it would have been so so so easy to make him into Generic Heartthrob Bad Boy #43568

but no.

he's a fucking square. he has sepia stock photos of trees in his landlord white and beige apartment. business major with 12 dogeared self help books kind of guy.

Picking Coil because he would absolutely make alternate realities to cause the most inflammatory drama possible

It is 5am

Considered putting Manton but considering he had a simurgh tattoo despite not being a victim I felt he was a cheat answer

We've started a nonprofit that attempts to counteract the mutually-destructive and emotionally harmful consequences of Knowing and Being Known by hermetically sealing the heartbroken in concrete prefabs and sequestering them at the bottom of the ocean

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.

Squealer alt power where she makes trains.

Genuinely thinking about the funniest interpretation of the Simurgh bringing the Travellers into Earth Bet being that she just lost a League of Legends match against them and literally attacked them out of rage.

Like she just has subtly adjusted a bunch of satellites to have interdimensional wifi and mostly uses that to further complex plans across reality but occasionally she dabbles in human culture as like. Assessment and so she is telepathically playing Leagu while discretely being an entire team by herself just to sort of loosely test strategy and then the Travellers end up in a match with her while training for their whole eSports thing and manage to somehow defeat her despite her knowledge and she tries to Sing to them over voice but they all have the in game audio muted for focus so she can't making her Physically Get Them instead to try and figure it how they bested her. The rest of what happens to them is kinda incidental. She just set all of the serum stuff up because she thought it was funny

entering my political feederism arc. it's good to eat & gain weight, it's good to want to be fat, you must counteract fatphobia rather than merely taking the neutral stance that should have been the norm in the first place. affirmative fat-ction

What if Goddess showed up to the barbecue. What if we took that perfectly suitable dumpster fire and threw a can of gasoline at it.

You are a PRACTICING OCCULTIST. You deal mostly in white magic, you can't deal with that dark magic hogwash. You enjoy the work quite a lot, especially when you are WORKING AT THE COFFEESHOP and writing WHOLESOME LITERATURE. You recently lost a CAT, and hope he returns home soon. What will you do?

i have such hate in my heart
