Have been semi-rotating Mad Rat Dead recently, not for any particular writing reason, but because we took another look at the one Bug Fables cross it has and the whole situation there is just... really, really funny to us. Imagine being a parasite and fucking up your time-travel-in-a-desperate-attempt-to-survive gambit badly enough that you wind up in a far future where all of your host species are extinct. Where do you even go from there? What are her plans? What is the gambit here? It's a whole Situation it's great

#we speak #mad rat dead spoilers #we guess. uhhh you all in the MRD fandom get this post now #hi hello we only think about MRD once in a blue moon and when we do it's almost purely rat god #we think she's a facinating depiction of toxoplasmosis gondii and we like tinkering with her through the lens of the irl parasite #we think that the potential link between toxoplasmosis being thought to cause schizophrenia and her whole Thing is very fun to look at #(although studies have shown its extremely unlikely t. gondii and schizophrenia are linked it's still fun to toy with outdated medicine)#we're a big fan of parasites and rat god is a VERY fun character!#we just think she's neat
