“So godly weapons, huh?”

“Guess so..”

[burstfoot]

Just a heads up to people who are writing Ptilopsis/Joyce and want to stick to the way she talks as accurately to canon as possible: Even despite Device #9's effect on her, Joyce can still refer to herself in the first person. She often says "me" or "myself", or uses "I" - she doesn't usually refer to herself as a computer or talk in the third person (i.e., something like "Operator Ptilopsis believes (x)" or "this unit believes (x)"). I wouldn't say she has a super-consistent use of computer terminology that she uses in her regular vocabulary (i.e., you couldn't make a list of phrases that she replaces with specific computer language every single time), it's mostly just unique depending on the circumstance. However, for one effect of Device #9 that is fairly consistent, she usually calls Silence "Silence" or "Dr. Silence" while Device #9 is functioning properly, but calls her "Olivia" when it malfunctions in Dorothy's Vision. However, she DOES refer to herself as "Joyce" in the third person in the flashbacks in the RL Manwha (with the caveat that she's being a little silly here and might purposefully be playing up the computer terminology, which she does fairly often):

Keep in mind that even in the manwha however, she still does use first-person pronouns in the present!

I just thought I'd make this post because I see a lot of people misunderstanding the effect Device #9 has on her way of speaking. As far as I remember and from skimming through all her major appearances, she never calls herself 'this unit' once, even though she does that pretty frequently in fanon. She often refers to her own mental faculties as computer terms and uses computer metaphors a lot, but doesn't usually engage in total depersonalization. Here's an example of her using both first-person language and using computer metaphors at once from her Stories of Afternoon Vignette:

TL;DR When talking, Ptilopsis can use first-person and second-person pronouns, and rarely refers to herself in the third-person. While she often uses computer terminology or computer parts to refer to her actions or mental functions, she usually doesn't refer to herself as a computer (i.e. "this unit").

Hello Mrs. Ashengrotto. 😊 I hope you're having a good day.

I'd just like to know—is this a genuine photo of baby Azul?

Because if it is,

SQUEEEE HE'S SO CUUUTE!!! SO ADORABLE!! 🥰

How could he not see how precious he looked? He was the sweetest little octo-mer in the whole Coral Sea!!!

I know, my son's adorable, isn't he? Oh, I know! Here's one of when he was even younger!!

Look at him, he's just the cutest thing!

I wanna quit running,

I wanna relax and be tender,

I wanna see us together again,

Rocking away in our walnut chairs

Okay, but what’s with people hating on Christy??? Did I miss something?

Like I get if people found her annoying, but geeze, the insults I have seen thrown at this poor girl.

She literally didn’t do anything wrong! She was just a sweet girl that had the bad luck of being the Mason’s neighbour! If anything I feel bad for her, not just because of what happened to her, but because everyone she thought she could trust just ended up backstabbing her.

Forever be a Christy defender, she did nothing wrong. Spencer deserved what he got.

Mind Flayer ge.nitalia under the cut + some ideas

Illithid se.xual organs are a trait often up to debate- whether they have them or not the first one, and those that discover they do (or some do) debate reason. It could be something that simply has yet to be bred out with evolution yet when tadpole creation was different or a trait from hosts kept, or something else entirely.

Organs are completely hidden on pelvis, all internal and so finely knitted one would not be able to see an opening.

The network of the two organs can be adjusted as necessary- for example, turning the external one into a means for egg laying instead of requiring internal sex for that.

The cilia was likely a means for gripping and holding at one point, but is not developed enough anymore for that- due to lack of need

It is sensitive unsurprisingly.

Fully prehensile

Only two openings, and as said can be connected if necessary. Mind Flayer have no need for other openings one would find in similar anatomy, and don't have much need for more than one but again that has not been phase out.

Do you think I could file for custody of all the human-like Sentis that have been created on the basis of "I made them so I'm technically one of their parents"?

//...i am sure i will regret this, but....

what if i came back? what if i wiped drafts and everything and just started over and came back fresh?

will i do it? i dunno. i've been gone so long that i am honestly scared to come back and, well, honestly? my real personal life takes precedence. i guess i just miss the ease and comfort of writing from here sometimes.
