Hi, idk if this is weird but I've seen you post a lot about cult of the lamb and I was just wondering what it was about!? I was aware of the game as a concept though I never really knew more than the fact that it existed, but based on your art and posts and stuff it looks like it has a lot more plot than I originally assumed

I've been trying to think of how to answer this the last couple of days because I'm worried i mightttt have given you a false impression of the game. The game at its core is meant to be a fun little base builder/action roguelike. And it doesn't not have a plot and lore but, a lot of what folks make content of, including me, is in the gaps between that said lore, or taking that lore and expanding on it a LOT. This fandom is mostly folks playing in their own sand boxes and making fun off a neat concept? Like again the game gives you the seeds but most of mine and other folks stuff is coming from their own brainspaces, it's why everyone has different takes and ideas with but with some connecting themes, threads, and plot points. The most basic description of the game is: you are a lamb, running a cult, going on crusades and killing gods. Stuff happens involving that. That's the game. There is some more than that but at its core that's the game's whole thing.

Goddddd you've got me thinking about season seven again, it's got Michael and Sly, it's got Michael and Edgar, it's got Mustardseed. Truly she does it all three of my favourite woe.begone things smushed into one season

I just finished relistening to season 7 and moved on to season but I'm gonna be so real with I need to go back. No season 8 just yet, just restart season 7. She's the season that just keeps giving. She's got HIT after HIT after HIT: New VAs, excessive cowboys, angst upon angst and fluff upon fluff, some of my favorite songs (the Honk trilogy, Panoply, big bear, etc) and as the cherry on top, seven is a fantastic number :)

You 🤝 me

Insane over Mustardseed

(he makes me feral I wanna put him in my mouth and chew him)

God I love him so much, he goes from goodie two shoes Edgar Lastname to raising Hell and high water to destroy Base so he can run away with his husband for the chance of whatever happy ending he can get.

I love his sassy little texts and the scene where he loses his patience and threatens to kill Mikey. He's everything to me. Favorite doomed Edgar iteration who now is either rotting away in the Compound or has figured out how to work his way up the ladder.

I think he should come back and ruin someone's life again. He's absolutely show stopping.

ALSO. make me into something (useful) and triangle shaped wound are two of my favorite character songs on the show.

Top ten best Iliad characters to make transgender:

10. Achilles. My darling. Doesn't matter if it's transmasc or transfemme there will be bloodshed either way. HE IS NOT A TWINK.

9. Helen. The most beautiful woman in the world is a trans woman. It makes my heart feel full.

8. Diomedes. I just think it would be fun if the ultimate powerhouse had the repressed rage of growing up as a little girl. #Notprojecting

7. Nestor. Old trans man who tells a lot of stories about being a woman but never explains the trans part so everyone is confused and it's funny.

6. Paris. Speaking from experience very hot trans guys will ruin your life and you will have a great time anyways.

5. Greater Ajax. The ultimate musclebear used to be a very small girl. Imagine it. IMAGINE IT.

4. Hector. Give her estrogen. She will be the ultimate horse girl.

3. Odysseus. Make him genderfluid. They don't tell anyone and just do elaborate lies/disguises depending on how she feels that day. This is in character and you know it.

2. Patroclus. Do I even have to explain? I love him. He's a hunk with self worth issues. Chiron did his top surgery.

1. Agamemnon. This is the funniest option.

also my enthusiasm and Nina’s immense practicality and take-no-shit attitude would be a great combination on a movie set.

*Basically you could request profile pictures, wallpapers (phone or desktop), headers, etc. of characters and/or fandoms that I'll make on an app called VaporGram. I'll mostly stick to fandoms I'm in, which I'll list if there's enough interest, but could do others I'm not in, but they'll likely be of lower quality.

I have no interest in having people pay for them since they rarely take more than a few minutes to an hour to finish. I just think it would be fun to do this. Here's a few examples of some I've done, you can also find more by looking through the vaporgram tag on my blog.

Thought about your Edgar post for like 5 seconds too long, and I wanted to say how much I think that it seems that Mike is really judging their characters based on personality rather than actions if that makes sense?

They've both done some truly awful and heinous things - Edgar especially - but when not caught up in time travel bullshit, Edgar is a genuinely kind and compassionate person. Something that, as his boyfriend, Mike sees a lot of. Mike on the other hand, can be a bit of a bitch sometimes. (said with all the love in my heart of course)

Obviously Mike Walters is the true champion at seeing his loved ones through rose-tinted glasses with Edgar being one of the two most blatant examples (the other being Anne imo), but I do think there's something about the Mikes saying that the truth is what they feel to be emotionally true. They have flaws that they don't like about themselves, whereas Edgar is someone they love, and someone who loves them back. They see a lot of cruelty from the both of them, but they also see a lot of kindness and love from Edgar. Therefore in the Mikes' eyes, they are a worse person than Edgar.

Not sure if I quite articulated this great, but your post got me thinking!

(also when I say Mike, I mean Mike Walters as a species)

No no you're absolutely right and I am obsessed with how Mike says things that feel true in the moment even if they are blatantly wrong or impossible to prove (him telling Matt he loved him may be a bad example since later Mikey says he was only trying to be nice but I feel like there is certainly more to that whole scene than Mikey was willing to admit to Matt or his podcast listeners at the time)

And I feel like even though Edgar has obvious personality flaws as well, like he can be petty and mean (re: Rugby) he often speaks over Mike as if Mike's feelings don't matter (making decisions for him, disregarding his opinions and emotions during missions, treating him like a warm body to be sent out into the field), or manipulating him (Dylan mentioned in the commentaries how often Edgar puts Mikey in a position where he's the "adult" and Mikey's the "petulant child" re: 118) - and it seems like the Mikes do sort of know about it. Like Michael's still holding a grudge about Rugby so he's clearly not blind to Edgar's less than savory moments.

But that won't matter to them because in the end they will look past facts.

I'm also fascinated at how much of an unreliable Narrator Mike Walters is. Even when we have an episode where he's speaking to other Mikes or to himself, we can't fully trust what he says because he will apply his emotions to a situation and make decisions based on that.

We rarely do see Edgar and the others alone in scenes where they are themselves without Mikey interjecting with his own narrative. Which makes sense, as this is WOE.BEGONE and its the story of Mike Walters, so we see the world through their eyes.

I think you can probably say Edgar is a better person than Mike though and I am completely agreeing with your points. But at the same time I do think its funny how Mikey leads us to believe that Edgar is perfect and holy while his boyfriend just can't fucking wait to get his hands dirty.

WOE.BEGONE is a show about power and how it can corrupt someone and I think Edgar is just as good of an example as Mikey. Mikey might've started as someone who was very happy to get into the time-travel murder game as he accuses himself of being in Episode 21, but Edgar goes from being scared and unsure to the actual leader controlling the fates of all of Base.

Warren/Gordon for the ship bingo!

Thank you for the ask!

They hold a special place in my heart. Mind you I haven’t listened to the newest stuff yet (I’m in denial) but me and somebody I consider my best friend talk about them a lot. I don’t really know how to put into words just know I’m shaking them around like a rabid animal.
