I doubt charcoal pine resin would help much in the case of a heart attack...

REAL SHIT, if you didn't like someone you could just ask your angry rat to spear them fr

i think if i had a slugcat irl in real life all my problems would go away instantly forever

Ignore my last attempt...

anyways, yeah, true. I was gonna write something of a story and announce it on Tumblr, cuz there's two characters that I think could have an extremely compelling romance narrative, but I'm afraid of the backlash from the rest of the fandom. Not to say that they aren't cool people, they seem to be, but still scares me.

Dumb stuff.

What is the problem with Slugcat x Iterator ships?

I think I might be missing something?

To understand what I mean by this question, let me put it like this. The main character, the scug, is interpretable in multiple different ways.

You could interpret the scug as an unintelligent animal, and that's fine, although I don't really see how you would see it this way considering the things we see throughout the game.

You could interpret the slugcat as an intelligent being possessing intellect akin to a human, which would also be fine, and backed up by evidence provided in the separate campaigns (i.e. It is made clear that the scugs are able to understand a language likely very close in complexity to English, which means they have to be intelligent in some way similar to humans.)I would hazard a guess that they are on the same level of intelligence as a human, which would make for a cooler narrative imo.

I just don't see the grand issue with this stuff. Different people have different views of the game, and that's fine. Let people do what they want.

Now, if someone interpreted the scug as a being of lower intelligence and THEN shipped them with an iterator, it would be weird. That stuff I do not support. But. not all scug x iterator ships are like that, man, who cares.

I view it like this: imagine a human shipped with a hyper-intelligent supercomputer. Is that wrong? That's personal preference, that's opinion.

If I'm missing something, that's fine, and I'll own up to it, but really I don't think there's anything I am missing in here. However, I wouldn't be surprised if I'm dumb and there's something canon here that does make it objectively and inherently weird.

not trying to offend people, just asking a question.
