What if when Michael got Distortioned he/they/it/(?) had just kept showing up to work? Imagine Gertrude comes into the archives and finds a bunch of paperwork filled out in yellow highlighter and folded into impossible shapes, and then Michael-Distortion just walks into the room door-style and sits down at his work computer so it can email Gertrude a phishing scam.

What’s the Moon made of? Meet me there after I’m gone…..
I have this headcannon where the distortion didn’t distort Michael’s body, but his being. His corpse is just lying in the halls somewhere, untouched by rot. It only starts to decay once Helen takes over
Michael physically cannot get rid of it. It’s tethered to his being.
It should want to be rid of it. That face shouldn’t be It’s, it wants to be Distortion again-
He doesn’t want to. That face is his. He want to be human again, he never wanted this-
also I think the imagery of holding your own corpse is metal as fuck

Marble hornets x Slendermansion AU but instead of Hoodie and Masky being proxies they also live in a small cabin in the same woods and are constantly trying to sabotage the creeps plans. Hoodie learns Jeff is supposed to kill some random family and follows him there to purposely set the home security system off and Masky jumps out of the closet and tackles Jeff. They all run away to their own homes afterwards when the cops are called. The Operator/Slenderman could put a stop to it if he so pleased, but finds the shenanigans amusing.
#creepypasta#marble hornets#mh#masky#masky marble hornets#Tim Wright#hoodie#hoodie marble hornets#Brian Thomas#Jeff the killer#Do you think Alex is a proxie in denial who keeps having to get dragged back to the mansion#Since Brian's alive so we might as well resurrect the rest of the cast#Is Jay in this small cabin or is he just desperately wandering around Rosswood with his camera trying to find these two homes#Since Totheark has started posting vlogs about how he beat up random local serial killers that have been evading the police#For months. Years. Decades perhaps#The video starts off a peaceful nature documentary#It starts off peaceful nature documentary#then three seconds later the blaring distorted sound of the alarm is is in your ears#And Masky is on the ground beating up Jeff#And ofc there's ominous codes and messages implying that there is a mansion they live in in Rosswood#And what about what happens to Tim after he finally returns to his normal state#Does he still stay in the cabin? Does Hoodie bring him to wherever Jay is staying for the night?#Cause clearly leaving him unconscious in the woods with a bunch of serial killers is a bad idea especially with their history in this au#Who knows really#I'm stuck on the imagery of a very tired EJ having to handle dragging Alex back to the mansion#Cause he keeps trying to kill Proxies “in training” (aka the ones infected with Slender Sickness)#And yes I copy pasted these tags from a reblog I made for another reblog on this post#I felt they belonged here too

thinking about Michael The Distortion's existence as a haunting . . . The Distortion haunting what was once Michael Shelley's body . . . Michael Shelley haunting those endless hallways of The Distortion . . .
#this thought occurred to me while listening to “Hi My Name Is” by Nine Aetharia btw. it's a very Michael coded song#“if you asked me the things that I wanted; darling I wouldn't know. if you asked if I feel that I'm haunted; darling doesn't it show?”#“hi my name is; I've never had one fit right. and I don't think I care enough; to have something to call myself by”#←like it's so perfect for Michael!!#the magnus archives#tma#magpod#magnus archives#michael shelley#michael shelly#michael the distortion#the distortion#michael distortion#Michael The Distortion my beloved#my posts

I'm very surprised there are. No fics of Ethan Winters in Bioshock. They're both like Dad-Simulators in horrifying situations.
I think it's perfect and I'm disappointed that apparently no one else has thought this. Leaning on and looking out a window solemnly
#just. put that mold man into the ocean please#i want that man to take more drugs for his own survival#also imagining the possible effects of ADAM on Mold is. fascinating to me#would it work the same way on Ethan as it does everyone else? Are any symptoms heightened or dampened by his mold?#if the splicing causes any disfigurement would the mold heal it? would the mold get confused and think it's normal bc genetic alteration?#I don't think so bc even if his genetic code changes and distorts‚ the mold probably still remembers the original form of Ethan#but by that logic would it also cancel out the Plasmids and Gene Tonics themselves?#I mean. it's still affected by the steroids and shit in RE7 and. food in REVill so maybe not but I think those were more made for the mold#mold man go brrrrrrrr#also his cringefail quips in Rapture would be. amazing#OH HIS REACTION TO THE SPLICERS TOO#The only enemies he's had that can talk are the Bakers‚ Eveline‚ The Lords‚ and Miranda#while that's still quite a few. but they're not the majority#the majority were shambling and groaning and growling creatures‚ only somewhat resembling humans#the closest thing to that in Rapture are Big Daddies. everyone else talks and runs and walks like.#well not normal people. but ya know. drug addicts.#so hehehe Ethan would probably not take that too well :3#okay i'll shut up now#bioshock#resident evil#resident evil 7#re7#re7 biohazard#resident evil 8#re8#re8 village#ethan winters

hey mecha, do you think you could beat metal sonic in a 1v1
#mecha sonic#metal sonic#sonic fanart#sonic fandom#welcome back to the worlds worst siblings#also weclome back to: weird written text for characters who dont have normal speech. wehehe#it was fun for fake pep's garbled distorted sounds so i do it again for metal's angry computer noises#metal being mute is such an important part of his character to me.......#the way i see it is like hes perfectly capable of speech he just doesn't have the hardware for it#but he still tries. with his angry computer beep boops. n' those sounds r what the text like this is meant to represent visually#n e way the actual code is just morse but using a couple sets of different symbols.#'' i could run circles around him'' / ''he wouldn't land a hit on me''#mecha knows the audience can't understand metal. but he can#so he's continuing to present his own answer while also sorta underhandedly replying to metal#anyway good ask. they should kill eachother.#they're speed+agility vs. power+defense builds to me. so the real answer for 'who would win'#is whoever manages to stay level-headed and not get pissed off the longest. which could go either way depending on the circumstances.#arting#msab
