yknow what sure.

riley davis best girl

bonesaw did all that stuff, rileys just a girl in the world

[wormbloggign]

everytime we get reminded taylor stims with her bugs its great 10,000 swarming wasps as the stone faced lady says "its fine"

[wormbloggign]

and then my girlfriend kissed me on the bug mouth part of my face. whatever. eye rolling emoji. straight btw

[wormbloggign]

we missed the lesbian wedding??

[wormbloggign]

TWINS??? TWINBRINGERS???

[wormbloggign]

taylor getting a bug stuck in the khonsu orb and suddenly being blasted with its entire remaining lifespan

[wormbloggign]

kill? scion kills these things. your job is to fight them off until they get bored

rest? there's murder to be done!

probably not.

bad news. these bugs are hauling ass.

carmen sandiego?

taylor i get that youre 100% heterosexual as youve announced unprompted multiple times but what are you doing here exactly?

dude! we're getting the band back together!

oh EVERYONES HERE

sorry? administrator? is that taylors worm power word? admin? shes the fucking mods?

what am i talking about ofcourse shes the mods. she does bug fixes all the time

hm.

not saying this is 100% happening but canary has to have her free bird moment somehow

speaking of canary, she's still alive! hang in there girl!

honestly the endbringers kinda seem like toys to a certain level, wonder if its just a game on a scale we dont get to see yet

hm. HM. did lisa only agree to this meeting so she could get taylor on the same page? thats really sweet

gfdi of course the bad guys are all antiheroes i forgot i was reading worm for a second

[wormbloggign]

nine is the button for emergency... i wonder why....

but no time for that! its time for the

TAYLOR CHARISMA CHECK BROADCAST

already off to a great start

middle of the group shot??? you already know what the media for this'll look like

during the feed, a camera would point to weaver, to follow whats being said. there is no way she'd be aware of that, so the audience would very possibly see this conversation happen and then a cut to her sitting PERFECTLY STILL as shes very much gone internal with her narration .

ALREADY OFF. TO A GREAT START.

what?

thank you for not disliking me, im glAD YOURE SCARED OF BUGS????

what are you saying here??

weaver is NOT A GAMER. regent was a gamer and he died for it.

NO NONONONO DONT BRING UP YOUR CRIMEBOSS DAYS ARE YOU KIDDING ME

nat 1 charisma check fking hell

yes. obviously. superheroes are real and everyone without powers just gets to watch. obviously theyre obsessed with cape activities.

ok this is the big swing. the moment that gets spread viral online. insert baseball reference here. weaver. skitter. taylor. can you read. the room.

IMMEDIATE BLUNDER. PACK IT UP

DOUBLIEST WHAMMY. WE'RE IN THE GRAVE NOW LADS

an out! hopefully this event is big enough to make the interview found footage

oh! *the monkeys paw curls its fucking finger i guess*

Endbringer 4: the road chip

and its theme is EROSION BABEYYY [oh gog., o fuck]

khonsu? the moon guy?? i get that we're naming endbringers off of mythology but the moon guy? why?

HES GOING AROUND THE WORLD (around the world) (moon style)

!!! oh boy!

so we have greek(echidna), hebrew(leviathan and formerly behemoth), persian (simurgh) and egyptian(khonsu) mythology currently in play.

since the next endbringer is coming with khonsu in the patch update, we can probably assume theyre working off of a binary concept.

khonsus doing time (erosion) so i wonder if our mystery guest is space themed? maybe they do something atmosphere related?

we havent had pestilence as a form of disaster maybe a rot themed endbringer?

truly who can say

[wormbloggign]

you have a feeling its going to be a long day (stakeout time babeyyy)

why doesnt she just setup a bugnopticon (panop-tick-on?) on the side, im sure somethings happening somewhere she could listen in on to

BUG BOX?!?! this is her batmobile. this is her invisible jet. but its just a box. with a heater. and some bugs. i love it

....girl.....no...........wdym alexandria lunchbox. thats so fucked on so many ways....dont put bugs in there

..........

long distance yuri (1.6m words)

she did something similar in the leviathan fight too, and a couple other times. i love how the world is her noticeboard

premeditate. isolate. exterminate.

shes a fucking murder movie villain. i loev it

O_O

this poor clown(?) guy. hes getting the lung treatment

so deeply unsettling. all of it

"Now youre caught in my net!" said the spider to the fly. "AAAGH!!!!" said the fly who just found out how sticky nets can be.

(that bug fucking bitch? yeah i assume they tried it at least once)

she's getting her bugbox(tm)!

maybe its because of my hiatus but it feels like shes doing a lot more actively horrifying things with her power now that she has the PRT implicitly backing her actions

yeah this man isnt surviving the story.

[wormbloggign]

genuinely interested in what taylors reading here, assuming it isnt required reading for school since the prt seems to have regulations on and about juvenile capes

i wonder if its twilight?

self care!!! (she would not give herself this kind of time off if she werent in prison)

taylors back to her favourite pastime again!

the logistics around this would be very funny to figure out, though i pity the sap that has to change the bug-ket when it gets full

that explains how quickly they got it, i had assumed dragon was just being creepy and had pre-made the hero!skitter costume in the hopes it came up.

this way is probably better

...

yeah, nah that's not gonna work. "mistakes" is doing a bit too much heavy lifting on your part armsdealer

he is staying as STILL as POSSIBLE (goofy guy behaviour)

so were currently 2 for 2 on PRT non-cape fuckheads, lets see how he holds up! (either way i somehow doubt he is long for this world)

Mrs Yamada. I like where you're coming from but therapy + 10 judgemental onlookers might not be the best call.

aw fuck hes getting downright endearing

REAL (clockblocker has shot up to S tier)

WORLDS SLIMIEST MAN (its nice that hes on taylors side but like wow this guy is shit)

GIRL!! NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR SPOT CHECKING!!

she does not give up on her hobbies gd

dont worry, all im doing is setting up a large scale surveillance state, perfectly ethically and legally sound.

okay ignore any bad ting i may have ever expected to say about glenn.

THIS MAN GETS IT

YES!!!

WERE GETTING DOWN THE PRESENTATION!!!!

the dissonance is too powerful for him, he's seen taylor at some of her most nightmariest highs and now she's going through the same public relations hoops he had to

i really wasnt trying to find him this charming, i really wasnt

taylor drops ONE (1) bugfact and suddenly shes getting called a nerd. maybe the endbringers are right, we really should kill them all

d-doesn't he go to classes on exacty this?

what am i saying, he wouldnt pay attention in school

yes actually, 'disturbing' does suit your swarm of insects quite well as an adjective

i get that we're supposed to be a little annoyed at the constant micromanaging but i expected theyd do at least this much, im surprised she didnt get some media training beforehand, theyre being pretty hands off, all things considered.

maybe thats because they want her to fail though :(

eyyyy! thats... deeply disturbing as a heroes one-liner actually. maybe take some more time workshopping that

oh that's nice, her bugs worked to break concentration, this is a fight against dnd wizards

LETS GET ELDRITCH BABEYYY

unbe-weaver-ble

i do love how hard theyre commited to the bit though

legitimately sick burn

had to be done, glenn wont be happy though

B)

“Taylor Hebert?  On the issue with the bug population of my facility, I feel it would be a very bad idea to provide you with a caustic substance to give your bugs, given what your file says you achieved with capsaicin.  I had a bug zapper purchased, and you should be able to access it with each and every one of your tiny soldiers.  I expect to see it used, understand?”

(moving to copy paste bc tumblr says no more screenshots)

immensely funny solution

The spiders, I kept on hand, directing them to the burned corpses.  They could breed, in time, and I could put them somewhere where they wouldn’t encounter any people. Breaking the rules, maybe, but it was something to occupy my thoughts.  It made me feel just a little safer, a little more like myself.

its gonna be so funny when the wardens find the underground spider breeding ring

[wormbloggign]

oh whoops just realised i left one of my wormposts in the drafts

lol. lmao, even.

[wormbloggign]

everyones mad at taylor because she could, at any moment see shrimp colours and is actively choosing not to

[wormbloggign]

wait so are cape classifications (tinker, shaker, mover, etc) inherent to the power system (like avatar bending styles or homestuck classpects) or is it just something they made up to try categorise/understand the things they see in the world (like phrenology or race science)

people really seem to act like its the former but bonesaw hasnt seemed to even acknowledge the terms, and she seems to know the most out of everybody as to what the space worms (not what theyre called) are doing

[wormbloggign]

taylors training theo... i dont know why but this feels like a bad sign

i dont know if its a good idea that they mix...

oh yeah, i kinda shunted that they were americans out of my head, i was thinking of brockton bay as like a part of sydney

(call me 4kids the way i localise)

“When you were dealing with the Slaughterhouse Nine back in Brockton Bay, you fought Jack Slash, right?”

don't expect much help there theo, we havent yet gotten even a summary on how his powers work, only the idea that he can go long range with a knife. theres almost definitely an unexpected twist around his capabilities, not to mention the swarm of baddies (swarmterhouse 9?) bonesaw was cooking up

thats not the first time stardust came up in that manner, plot relevance? maybe. interest? nah.

O_O

yeah sure taylor, not threatening at all

The Simurgh, her silhouette barely visible in the midst of the clouds.

GIRL?????

ah, theres some of her plan, "civilians, do you see how destructive and powerful these capes are?"

and heres another, "capes, you cant do anything, youre worthless (riling them up)"

it's funny to know that her area of influence was never restricted to those who heard her song, tragic, but funny

“If the Simurgh wanted to deliver a hit to morale, this would be a way to do it,” Mrs. Yamada said. “After New Delhi, a lot of capes were hoping to make a difference, to be heroes. Her choice of venue, the short battle, the narrow focus, it denied everyone the chance. Not just you.”

that's what i said! (not really, her interpretation feels stronger but let me have this)

“Maybe,” I answered her. “But I hate feeling helpless.”

real, you shouldve seen the last person who didnt leave her an out

(2 dead, many injured)

teared the fjuk up real quick
