In honor of my friend binging Slugterra with me: she wanted memes, and I had a few ideas.
THEREFORE a fic of his convo w blakk would be like the perfect way to explore the Annie Oakley parallels w Slugterra?!?
brb, I have so much to write-
Going back to Maurice being liked by everyone at Blakk industries, how much you want to bet that when he leaves to run errands for Dr.Blakk the whole place goes nuts without him there? Because I definitely can see that happening.
Yes, absolutely.
Blakk may be the fear factor in keeping everyone in line, but it's Maurice who keeps the entire citadel from blowing up!
On more than one occasion, Maurice has had to calm Blakk down and break up fights.
The man can't take a brake for ten minutes without something going wrong!
And when he leaves to run errands, he has to leave a detailed list behind on what to do in an emergency for the temp guy/gal filling in for however lone he's gone.
The list ranges from 'keeping track of the Ghouls' to 'list of things to try to calm Dr. Blakk down before evaluating the building'
And then, even when he comes back, there is still a fire that needs to be put out.
Maurice loves his job, 10/10 better than what he used to do when Viggo Dare was in charge, but sometimes he needs a brake. Especially from Blakk-
HOLD UP HOW WAS I NOT AWARE OF THIS
I will post TOMORROW. We will get my post-shadows eli cries fic. I swear by it. But I am tired and my leftover chicken nuggets need to be refrigerated, im sorry.
*Eli spawns out of nowhere*: you really left off writing tonight in THAT scene??? right before I spill about Tad and right after Trixie tells me about her mom's self-defense murder?!? I'm not even completely healed yet from almost being cut in half?!?!?!?!?!?! BRO WHAT
*me, collapsing on my hands and knees, eating one last chicken nugget* im SORRY MY SON
YES YES YES YES YES GLORIOUS ART WHAT AN HONOR YOUR HONOR
[for some context, they are watching a duel between two skilled trick shot duelist]
“I noticed, think something like that could be useful in a head to head shoot out?” Will asked.
“You kidding? misdirection is never not useful Shane,” Tom snorted, “Though, ide say your years off from their level”
“Like you're a better shot!” Will snapped.
“Compared to those two? No way. But you? It's hardly a competition,” Tom snarked with a smirk, as Will gasped dramatically.
“And here I thought we were friends!” Will feigned causing Tom to chuckle.
[Their silly little bros your honor!]

☆ Part 1 ☆ Part 2

There is a group chat for all the highered Slingers. And no, it is in no way professional.
Everyone has stupid Users and the chat name changes at least five times a day on average.
There is a group chat for the regular day to day workers, but it's far more casual and general updates.
Twist is an annoying little shit.
^Constant bragging about being 'Blakk's apprentice'
C.C. loves to rub it in Twist's face Blakk picked him for the mission in 'Lightwell'
Everyone dogs on Saturday for falling for Eli's bluff in 'Mission Improbable'
Saturday retaliates by hypnotizing them for a while until Blakk tells him to stop.
Everyone loves Maurice
I don't care Maurice is the best and everyone(Blakk included) would kill for the man
Maurice is the only one able to even be able to talk some level of sense into Blakk
It is no secret that our of everyone in Blakk Industries, Blakk trusts Maurice the most, seeing as how Blakk is actually nice to him(though its probably because they have known each other for years)
Locke and Lode are actually smarter than people give them credit for, they just just bicker so much that they tend to forget what's going on around them.
Blakk, is a feminist, interpret that as you will
When Sedo approached Blakk to work for him, he promised that once he became King of Molemound Blakk could do whatever he wanted.
Twist sometimes has, regrets, about working for Blakk but then remembers how he used to live
^he sometimes has dream about what life would have been like if he hadn't double crossed the Shane Gang
There had been, hundreds of jokes in regards to El Diablos Nacho and his name
none are said in ear shot because no one wants to die :)
Quintin drank way to much coffee and had so little sleep while developing the Titan Tanks
Blakk Industries is surprisingly inclusive for a company run by an eco terrorist
Billy and the rest of the Hooligang are annoying little shits, but in the endearing way
Billy and Twist hate each other
NO ONE TRUSTED THE DARK BANE NOT EVEN BLAKK HIMSELF
A lot of the staff are huge SlugBall fans
So when Primo Presto started on the pay roll they were psyched because they could get SlugBall tickets for an even cheepier price
^Blakk Industries sells tickets for various events at a reduced price to its employees to help with moral (for the record, this is a legit thing companies can do, my mom's company dose it)
say what you will, the cafeteria serves good food
Not everyone working there agrees with the Ghouling but some people just really need the money
Since Eli Shane happened, there have been prank calls coming in

"Blakk Industries, Bringing you Tomorrow's Yesterday Today, My name is Steve, how can I help you?"
"So you sell Ligma?"
"... Ligma? whats Ligma I-"
"LIGMA BALLS" [hangs up]
"... what the fu-"
☆
"Blakk Industries, Bringing you Tomorrow's Yesterday Today, My name is Camron, how can I help you?"
[Caller starts trauma dumping]
"... uh... this is a corporate manufacturing company-"
☆
"Blakk Industries, Bringing you Tomorrow's Yesterday Today, My name is Aaron, how can I help you?"
[Caller proceeds to spend four and a half hours on the phone, making a custom order for like 1000+ gold Mecha]
"Alright sir, is that everything?"
"yup"
"perfect! be for I submit your request, as per Blakk Industries policy-"
"wait- Blakk Industries? I thought I was talking to someone form the Beast Forge! agh! never mind-"[hangs up]
"... SO I DID ALL THAT FOR NOTHING!?!? @#%$!"
-
No one is paid enough to deal with it lmao
They host parties ranging form birthday parties for employees to grand gala's
^Clearly inspired by the Blakk Gala community event
There was a debate on weather or not to fish Blite out of the Cavern of Time
It was ultimately a no
Darius (the guy posing as the head of the Beast Forge that one ep) knows nothing about Mecha Beast's
Blakk attempted to bribe Judge Logan once before Blakk Industries really took off, Blakk ended up working hard labour for six months until Maurice came to get him
Twist is actually friends with an Arachnoid, don't ask how, it just happened.
Viggo Dare did try to get his 'gang' back from Blakk once.
Viggo Dare was never seen leaving Blakk's office.
breaking news: new york certified therapists see surge of clients as the magical awe-inspiring chaoticly fun shit-show IMMENSELY ENTERTAINING new york mets lose to the second most basic "oh look theyre good again" team ever, making their way for the most basic "oh look 2 teams that are always good" match up ever seen like ever
Unless......please my dudes please
I just have a theory
The molls TOTALLY dug the Drop, right? From the few times we see it, its a tunnel downward, and the marks on the sides perfectly match the mole tunnels and every time Pronto digs through earth. It also matches the tunnels made by the crystal worms; which makes me think the moles made the drop by pulling a Pronto and riding the worms to make it.
Somewhere in the Slugterra Timeline, Moles made at least one access point to and from the surface; may or may have not been in collaboration with the Shane family. Probably after (or in preparation for???) the elemental portal being turned off for 1000 years. I guess other species's could have ridden worms to make such a long and complicated tunnel, but Moles involvement is further supported by the Vault of Knowledge map having the Drop on it - like yes that's mole knowledge, they MADE that passageway on purpose long ago.
It also makes you wonder who sealed the Vault of Knowledge away, using the same method Will Shane used to protect HIS secrets.
Moll lore keeps me up at night okay, there's a REASON I haven't updated To End a Legacy, its because I want my understanding of the lore to be top notch before I advance the plot too much lol
