June 17th 2023 - Discovering Rex (Part 2)

Frederick: Well- it's high enough to be very possible!

EJ.EXE: *leans over and presses a few keys*

Frederick: *keeps watching tho*

EJ.EXE: *a picture of the person in question comes up, along with info*

EJ.EXE: * [ CHASE BENNET ] a middle aged man with brown hair, glasses and a rather kind face *

EJ.EXE: *he is wearing an Aperture labcoat in the photo and there's some info about him*

EJ.EXE: *British, 35, worked in Aperture for a decade, has several degrees in computer science*

EJ.EXE: ........

EJ.EXE: See, that is not me

EJ.EXE: I am not even British

EJ.EXE: *he is still alive*

EJ.EXE: *and if Freddy does some digging, he'd find that fortunately, he was fired before GLaDOS killed off everyone else*

Frederick: *??*

Frederick: *!*

Frederick: *eyes light up*

Frederick: Have you tried to contact him?

EJ.EXE: .........................

EJ.EXE: No

EJ.EXE: Why would I

Frederick: ..........

Frederick: *blank face*

Frederick: Why not?

EJ.EXE: ...........

EJ.EXE: I don't want to

Frederick: ..............

Frederick: *Are you for real now*

Frederick: ... You said you wanted to find out who created you

EJ.EXE: Yes, I want you to do some scans and tell me

EJ.EXE: I dont want to go around calling random people

EJ.EXE: Tsk

EJ.EXE: It's even more work

Frederick: But he is not random, he worked in there as well

Frederick: What if he got involved before they fired him?

Frederick: Hmm

Frederick: Besides, we don't know know reasons of that

EJ.EXE: What do you want to do, Frederick?

EJ.EXE: Call him and ask if he developed a sentient virus for his work?

EJ.EXE: Explain you are a total stranger but you want to know why he got fired?

EJ.EXE: HA

EJ.EXE: Stupid

Frederick: *spawns in a glowy screen*

Frederick: *aaand messages to CB about the whole Vir case*

EJ.EXE: ................

EJ.EXE: Are you serious

EJ.EXE: ......

Frederick: You gotta try all options, you know

Frederick: Otherwise you won't manage the task

Frederick: .....

EJ.EXE: *CB messages back a few minutes later, asking who Freddy is and why he wants to know about some virus*

Frederick: *def sends details & proof links on some Vir's activities*

EJ.EXE: *CB sends back a link to 'Top 10 Best Free Antiviruses!'*

Frederick: .........

EJ.EXE: *he doesnt really understand why Freds is asking him this*

Frederick: ....................

EJ.EXE: *although it is definitely HIS signature in the virus' code*

Frederick: *sends a report with data telling antiviruses don't work, so they are looking for possible creators of Vir who were his ex co-workers*

Frederick: *sends a line of codes with the signature as well*

Frederick: *Well gotta see if he is lying or someone just picked his name for some reason*

EJ.EXE: *for a long moment, there is no answer*

Frederick: *glances at Vir as he waits*

Frederick: You know, if I actually figure this case out for you

Frederick: You are going to pay me a favor back

EJ.EXE: .......

EJ.EXE: Like what?

Frederick: Like stopping possessing other people and hurting them.

Frederick: *Nl: :3*

Frederick: *..........*

EJ.EXE: *then he sends back another message, explaining that the only reason programs would have his signature on them is because the equipment he used back as an employee would automatically add them onto all of his creations. mostly so aperture could figure out which programmer to blame in case something goes wrong*

Frederick: *What, it doesn't seem like EJ minded much*

EJ.EXE: .....

EJ.EXE: That's too big of a favor

EJ.EXE: You are just asking me to change my lifestyle~

Frederick: .... You know that if it's otherwise then I'll have to catch all of your parts

Frederick: And believe me, I will manage it

EJ.EXE: I can promise not to hurt your Stanley-

Frederick: *smiles*

EJ.EXE: *scoffs*

EJ.EXE: Oh, you wish

Frederick: I am asking you to think on your errors

Frederick: ....

Frederick: Unless you want to be destroyed after all

EJ.EXE: ......

EJ.EXE: *smiles sweetly* I'll think about it

Frederick: You know, I can't keep arguing with Stanley Jackson and some others forever

EJ.EXE: *tho it looks more like a toothy grin than a sweet smile*

Frederick: I only have some little time on this

Frederick: .......

Frederick: *is not impressed*

Frederick: You gotta try it.

EJ.EXE: I can take care of Jackson

EJ.EXE: For good

Frederick: ......... See this is exactly why people wanna destroy you

Frederick: But I only wanna do a research!

EJ.EXE: *scoffs*

EJ.EXE: Then keep doing your research

EJ.EXE: That programmer just replied, stop bothering me about morality topics

Frederick: .....

Frederick: *glances back at his screen*

Frederick: .................

Frederick: [ Does that mean the virus is one of your creations? ]

Frederick: .......

Frederick: [ Did you create AIs, didn't you? ]

Frederick: [ Apparently one of them ended up being corrupted. ]

EJ.EXE: [CB: I promise you, I don't know of any virus. I had access to various areas, but at the end of my work, we were moving on to more experimental tests ]

EJ.EXE: [CB: I am deleting this conversation after we speak, by the way. I doubt they will sue me after so long but I don't want to take the chances ]

Frederick: ........

EJ.EXE: [CB: If...any of them are still alive ]

Frederick: [ Do you remember names of those who worked with you? Could I have them, please? I have ways of checking. ]

EJ.EXE: *he does give him the few names he remembered*

Frederick: *CB is v nice*

EJ.EXE: *is watching this all, his brows furrowed*

Frederick: *idk i would put freds in blacklist for bothering about old job stuff xd*

Frederick: *...........*

EJ.EXE: *awww*

Frederick: *Hmph*

EJ.EXE: *well he sent proof about vir though*

Frederick: *Blacklists are easy to hack*

EJ.EXE: *otherwise he'd think freds was a reporter or a blogger looking for gossip*

Frederick: *!*

Frederick: *saves names in his files*

Frederick: *thanks him*

Frederick: *does some scanning and digging on names (again)*

EJ.EXE: *however*

EJ.EXE: *they're all dead*

Frederick: *is def curious*

Frederick: *Aw*

EJ.EXE: *thanks to GLaDOS*

Frederick: Aw

Frederick: *sigh*

EJ.EXE: *while he was scanning, another message popped up from CB* 

Frederick: *murmurs* GLaDOS never changes... 

EJ.EXE: She knew how to make use of her power 

EJ.EXE: I admire her~ 

Frederick: *?* 

Frederick: *glances at the message* 

EJ.EXE: [CB: There is...one incident that might be useful for you] 

Frederick: What, have you witnessed her? 

EJ.EXE: [CB: But] 

EJ.EXE: *then a looong pause* 

Frederick: Now I wonder if you have seen a Chell... 

Frederick: ...... 

EJ.EXE: [CB: I don't know] 

EJ.EXE: No 

EJ.EXE: I have read about her online 

Frederick: [ I appreciate anything that might be helpful! ] 

Frederick: .....

EJ.EXE: [CB: I hope it's not relevant. I should've been more careful and I wasn't ] 

Frederick: Well, what they tell on the Internet is usually quite far away from how things were in reality 

EJ.EXE: [CB: It was why they fired me and why I am still alive, I guess. Otherwise I would've been gassed as well ]

EJ.EXE: *sarcastically* You don't say

Frederick: Unless it's a trusty source with evidences 

Frederick: ...... 

Frederick: *?* 

Frederick: [ They fired you because you weren't careful enough? ] 

Frederick: *Hmmm* 

Frederick: *Gee* 

EJ.EXE: [CB: Someone broke into my equipment and...attempted to upload themself ] 

Frederick: *I hope AI(s) getting corrupted is not because a few mistakes done in codes* 

EJ.EXE: [CB: Actually, I know who it was ] 

Frederick: *!* 

EJ.EXE: [CB: He was my friend and I should've known better than to trust him ] 

Frederick: [ Oh- this could explain the whole case ] 

EJ.EXE: [CB: But I did, I thought he wouldn't possibly do something so stupid, and yet it ended with his death and my firing] 

Frederick: ......................... 

EJ.EXE: [CB: God, I hope you are wrong. Because that's]

EJ.EXE: [CB: Awful] 

Frederick: *Wait* 

Frederick: [ I am sorry ] 

Frederick: .... 

Frederick: [ Could you please tell his name? ] 

EJ.EXE: ............... 

EJ.EXE: [CB: Sure ] 

EJ.EXE: [CB: Rex Townsend ] 

EJ.EXE: ............................... 

Frederick: *niiice* 

Frederick: ............ 

Frederick: Rex Townsend, hmm

Frederick: Does it ring a bell to you? 

EJ.EXE: *it took me ages to come up with a good name lmao* 

Frederick: *Nl: Sent by Town of the Stupid ;3* 

Frederick: *............................................* 

EJ.EXE: *...........* 

EJ.EXE: *griiiiiips the chair a bit too tightly* 

Frederick: *Nl: Smart people don't try copypasting their minds into computers~~ ;3* 

EJ.EXE: *EJ's eyes are glowing* 

Frederick: ....... 

Frederick: Oh I see it now 

EJ.EXE: *you have a point neil* 

Frederick: You are a copy, then. 

Frederick: Hmm 

Frederick: Of course

EJ.EXE: *hisses* No I'm not 

Frederick: An AI would not show signs of denial 

EJ.EXE: Shut up 

EJ.EXE: Shut up, Frederick 

EJ.EXE: ............. 

Frederick: Your reaction is irrational 

Frederick: That proves my theory. 

EJ.EXE: You don't have any proof but your theory 

EJ.EXE: ....... 

Frederick: *can't help but be pleased* 

Frederick: Why, I do 

Frederick: So do you 

Frederick: Something tells me, the data about the day is saved in one of your distant parts 

Frederick: It might be corrupted but it's still in there, somewhere

Frederick: .... 

EJ.EXE: No. 

Frederick: But you won't reach out to it 

Frederick: Because you are scared 

Frederick: Because you are not an AI 

Frederick: As an AI would have already done it. 

Frederick: *knowing look* 

Frederick: Maybe you stick to your little games and messing with people 

Frederick: Because it is a way for you to procrastinate and escape from trying something like that 

Frederick: .... 

Frederick: In any case 

EJ.EXE: I am not s͡c̷ar͘e̶d͝ 

Frederick: I think this case is solved 

Frederick: *waves away his screen*

EJ.EXE: *he can also catch it now if he wants ahem* 

Frederick: There's one last thing to do.... 

EJ.EXE: *keeps glowering at the screens* 

EJ.EXE: *as if the words will change and prove he is right after all* 

Frederick: *sends a report with data & messages to Max tho*

i can’t stress enough just how much i long for failure characters. Damaged ones, but not in the sense that something horrible has happened to them. They have absolutely no idea why they are so fucked up. They could be better, so much better, they really could, but they’re not. They’re failures, they rot and waste time and they can feel their insides churning. We have this taboo about people and characters like that, as if somebody who isn’t remarkable isn’t worthy. As if someone deserves praise and love only if they’re extraordinary.

I love and relate to characters who just hate themselves for no reason, or many reasons, but nothing concrete, nothing to pin-point. Nothing specific. Everything and nothing. They’re mad at the world, but they don’t know why. They are unsatisfied and they seek something more, but they’re too tired and hate themselves too much to try. These are real experiences that real people have, and pretending that they are not, demonising them, is so brutal and like- not cool.

I’m speaking as a person who’s spent their entire life searching for something more, hating myslef for just existing, hating the world around me because however much i had to offer, it was never enough. I’ve always been a perfectionist, but i’ve started to get really tired and pissed. I’ve started to slack off at the most vital point of my life. I’m just tired and i want to give up. But i can’t. But for the first time i want or need to. But i can’t because i already hate who i am too much- so giving up now would mean that id have to try again and stay behind. Which is cool, but painful for my self-esteem.

It’s not that i aspire to be the character-failures. But i am a character failure. I’ve always looked up to characters such as Hermione Granger, Annabeth Chase, Anne Shirley, Elizabeth bennet etc, you know, really smart, intellectual, opinionated, badass characters. I share qualities with them and i’ve tried so hard to only make these shine that i’ve suppressed everything else. Or i’ve tried to. It’s all slipping up. It’s all a lie. I’d cry myself to sleep because i wasn’t as smart as hermione at 12, though people would say i was, but i wanted to be more, i wanted to be more than even her. I wanted to be her at her fullest, always. But i wasn’t. I’m not that character, i am a character-failure.

And seeing characters who are clumsy and smart, nerdy but also fucked up (IM LOOKING AT YOU MIKE WHEELER), characters with so many flaws, most people hate them, i- i feel close to them in a most remarkable way. Characters like Julia from luca, always second though she’d tried so hard, characters like todd anderson, too afraid to know themselves, characters like remus lupin, aristotle mendoza, katie mitchell, luca, james wilson, robin buckley and so many more. Characters who feel real. Not that all the others don’t, but something about how fucked up they are really appeals to me. Like- even someone this broken, crooked, wrong can be so loved. Maybe there’s still hope.

(So I've seen people mentioning it in the tags last time and yes this about the characters from the books, not their adaptations.)

About Percy and Annabeth :

"It's Percabeth. What else do you need?"

About Lizzie and Darcy :

"I was on the train yesterday and the lady literally recommended this to her guy-friend on the phone to improve his understanding of women (for romantic goals). And she's not wrong. The detail might be Regency but the themes are universal. Everyone has to work on their blind prides and prejudices so they can find the person they are best matched to."

Buffy: The Vampire Slayer vs. The Vampire Diaries, pt. 1

Hello everybody! Here I am, now to talk about my favorite supernatural creature, the vampires.

My love for the undead started a very long time ago, and started with the Twilight Saga (Terrible, I know, but in my defence, I was nine) and from that, I started to watch/ read everything related to vampires I could.

Before I realised, pretty much at that age, I started to watch the TVDU, and since that time, it still is my favourite show ever. But, after the ending of The Originals, I decided to expand my vampire obsession and went to look for the other major shows. First I watched True Blood, which is the worst between them, I honestly just watched it because of Eric Northman.

Now (actually in 2023, but I just came back to it now) I’m watching Buffy, and since the first episodes, I’ve fell in love with it. I’m currently at the middle of the 4th season of Buffy, and I can’t help but notice how similar it is to TVDU, or better, how TVDU is similar to Buffy, since Buffy came first.

Now, as always, spoilers under the cut:

Let’s start with the basis of the story, it’s a small town that for some reason is full of supernatural beings of all kinds, and then there’s a human girl who’s also connected to the supernatural. She’s in love with a vampire who tries to be a good man but has a dark side, and eventually comes another vampire who seems to be a monster, but is actually the better man.

And the resemblances don’t stop there, both the girls have a best friend who’s a witch (Willow and Bonnie) and a “evil” counterpart (Faith and Katherine). There’s even a character known as “Ripper” in both of them! (Giles and Stefan) And of course, I can’t forget the annoying human (Xander and Matt, although Xander is a much better character than Matt could ever be), a mean popular girl (Caroline and Cordelia), it has everything!

The trick to make a vampire good or bad once again, in BTVS is having or not having a soul, while in TVDU is about having your humanity switch on or off, but it’s pretty much the same thing, a way to make your vampire the good or the bad guy quickly.

Even the plot of switching bodies happened in both shows, although in Buffy was a one episode thing, and in TVD Katherine stayed in Elena’s body for a longer time

So, here is the closest correspondence of the characters, under my humble opinion, of course.

Buffy Summers — Elena Gilbert

Angel(us) — Stefan Salvatore

Spike — Damon Salvatore

Drusilla — Katherine Pierce

Faith Lehane — Also Katherine Pierce

Xander Harris — Matt Donovan

Willow Rosenberg — Bonnie Bennet

Rupert Giles — Alaric Saltzman

Joyce Summers — Jenna Sommers (in this case even the surname is basically the same)

Daniel “Oz” Osbourne — Tyler Lockwood

Cordelia Chase — Caroline Forbes

I think thats the resemblances I noticed for now, but I’m sure it will have more, so stay tuned to see the part two of my analysis!

there is at least one halloween where they make chase do a couples costume as mr darcy and elizabeth bennet

-📖

guys i have a confession: i’ve never seen or read pride and prejudice🧍‍♀️

but based on what i’ve heard about it, you’re absolutely right. especially since p&p is a classic, so literary!reader has def read it and begs chase to dress up as mr darcy (he thinks the sideburns are silly, but he commits to the costume to make you happy)

i can also totally see chase insult you/your family/your life while also being like “i like you😚😚” bc of his superiority complex. not too seriously, but he’s like “im smart, you’re dumb, can we kiss now?”

Characters I'd like to throw into a sterile white room and watch them bicker:

[clickonmedotexe]

Chase and Rex should meet again, I think it would be very funny

[vicki27]

The ones that I tagged aren't all competaly evil but they are either reviled by the narrative or a big part of the fandom.

(They are a lot more of female characters that fandom hates OR the narrative has done dirty that I will defend with my life but I didn't tag maybe other time)

defending evil and hated female characters online is a full time job and i clock in every single morning.

[anorical]

if Kaeya was meant to be a spy in mondstadt/was a child soldier, then there’s no way he wasn’t trained to fight pre-mond, meaning he likely fights to a degree with khaenriahn blade work (maybe that’s why his blade work is titled differently then all the other playable knights). Anyways, imagine Kaeya teaching Bennet sword fighting and helping train him (which i’m pretty sure is implied in canon?) , unintentionally teaching him khaenriahn blade work

then Dain comes to mondstadt and sees this disaster of a kid somehow being chased by 15 different abyssal monsters after stumbling into a hilichurl camp - and he’s about to go help because he’s not gonna let some random teen die - and then suddenly this kid is whipping out khaenri’ahn blade work like it’s all he was taught with clumsy but practiced technique

que Dain having a CRAZY crisis, forgetting he was even going to intervene, just standing in the bushes. he decides to investigate the kid and falls DEEPER into the rabbit hole when he discovers Bennets unknown birth parents abandoned him & he was raised by the adventurers guild.

while Bennet obviously doesn’t look like a pureblood khaenri’ahn, Dain doesn’t rule out the possibility it could be a disguise, or a halfblood situation.

but the kid seems harmless (kinda), so he just resolves to keep a vague eye on him and leave him alone for now.

bennet is absolutely none the wiser
