#Angstrom Advanced

[midnightshindig]

That Cecil’s kid one was amazing! Could we get a version where Cecil was unfortunately too busy with work to be there for his kid? Maybe they grow up to resent him a little and eventually secretly end up working with the Mauler Twins, Angstrom, etc (maybe even Viltrumites if you’re willing), for their own personal gain, or what ever reasons you see fit? Take your time! Sorry in advance for this request being kinda long :)

Cecil & Villain!Child!Reader

Oh my god i've been wanting to do this request for so long!! Thank you for submitting it!

hcs under the cut

Your mother died young, being a superhero did that.

You never hated her for it, for protecting others and for doing her best

but you couldn't help but resent her a little for who your father was

or rather, who he wasn't

Father was a generous term for what Cecil was. He was a lot of things

Head of the GDA, most powerful non-powered civilian on Earth, a badass ex spy and a great diplomat and genius

but he was NOT a father

you both knew it.

You barely knew the guy, being raised by a nanny specifically for superpowered children like yourself

You saw him occasionally at dinner, but that was maybe once a month.

He, for safety reasons, didn't want the world to know the two of you were related

so naturally, when you had a big baseball game, or your schools talent show cropped up, or even when you landed a main role in your senior play, he "couldn't" attend

Oh sure, it was taped and streamed to him, but you knew he never watched.

So was it really any surprise when you weren't jazzed about becoming a superhero?

When, throughout your final year of high school and the two years after, you befriend the Mauler Twins?

Even supervillains are allowed pen pals in prison, and they made such compelling ones for you to correspond with

It was a fun guessing game as to which twin had written what, and over the course of three years, the three of you had become something akin to friends

They gave you advice on what your major should be, how to handle the stress of college, and shared anecdotes from their own lives

It was hard to imagine them as normal people once, but they made a convincing story

You knew it was likely supervillain manipulation, but they seemed interested in your life, I mean, its not like they had tv

So you would detail your day-to-day life, sharing your frustrations with Cecil and the GDA as a whole

"What an asshole." the three of your would agree

Maybe you three could work together? It was an idea brought up frequently.

So honestly, you weren't really all that surprised when they showed up at your house after getting broke out of prison

Your powers were marginally useful, the ability to phase through walls and be invisible.

It was USEFUL, but not terribly flashy.

Either way, it made stealing things with them incredibly easy.

Cecil didn't notice when you stopped coming home

god knows he was never there

he did notice, however, when the Declaration of Independence went missing

and when GDA specialty supplies went missing

and when the schematics for all sorts of government wherewithal went missing.

"Donald- what the FUCK is going on?!" Cecil demanded, watching the surveillance streams

"Uh- Sir, you need to see this-" The feed was cut and changed to the news

The Mauler twins, business as usual. Whatever.

But-

"OH my god- Y/n?" Cecil put a hand to his head, pacing back and forth

He thought you'd moved out- maybe with roommates or a partner or something- but this?

Oh fuck....

Cecil teleported to the scene, the Mauler Twins and you attempting to break into the White House once more.

"Y/n! Get over here!" Cecil called out, a mix of anger and pain in his voice

you ignored him.

The Guardians of the Globe arrived

and realistically there wasn't a way they could tell them "oh leave that one alone its my offspring."

And so, as all good things go, your villainous spree ended with you in GDA's supervillain prison.

"Why? I want to know why." Cecil sat across from you with his hands folded

"God- what do you care?" you spat back, your hands cuffed and an anti-power collar around your neck

"Because, Y/n, you're my child and I care about you. At the very least I don't want you in prison."

"You didn't even know I had powers."

"Of course I did!"

"You knew I could phase through walls, but being invisible? I've read the files, Mom couldn't do that. And you had no idea I could."

Cecil sat in silence for a minute. Processing.

"Is that what this is, Y/n? Rebellion?"

You shook your head, rolling your eyes "Of course, everything I do is to appease or piss off a guy I don't even know."

"I'm your father, Y/n."

"Fuck off." your glare was cutting, and the tone in your voice oozed venom with every syllable.

"The Mauler Twins helped me enroll in community classes, they gave me advice about being an adult and how the world works. They listened and were happy for me when I graduated. They sent me a shitty graduation card with the supplies you give them in prison. To be clear- these guys were in prison and they showed up more than you did."

Cecil literally couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Y/n, you're only eighteen, you need to rethink thi-"

"I'm twenty."

Cecil blinked, standing up and going to the door, speaking with Donald through the door before returning

"Twenty.... wow...."

You leveled another glare at him "Yeah. Time flies when you're having fun." your tone was sarcastic, and your disdain apparent.

"Look. I'm sorry for being a bad father, but you're a criminal."

"So? Lock me up, throw away the key. Just fuck out of my life, you were doing so good until now."

Cecil let out a long, drawn out sigh. Feeling twenty years of disappointment in a single moment "Y/n, I know I never took the time to know you, but know this. I don't waste potential."

...

"Go fuck yourself, Cecil."

Bonus!:

The Mauler Twins are being interrogated for their involvement with you

they don't usually take accomplices, so the GDA wanted to know why

instead all they got were violent outburst about your location

"Where is Y/n?! They are INNOCENT damnit! My Clone will agree-!"

"I'm not the clone. But as the ORIGINAL, I demand to know where Y/n is and that they are safe!"

The twins are assured of your safety, but do not calm down until surveillance footage of you and Cecil's interrogation is shown to them

This puts them at ease, as they continue to testify to your innocence.

The GDA has never seen them so concerned about anyone other than themselves

"We will gladly serve our time- god knows we will always find a way out- but Y/n is innocent, release them this instant!"

[wordsofwhimsy]

I still think about mc and her friends in that really hot, really wild lensless mark story of yours. After clocking Sadie in the face, how did the rest of the friend group react???

And do Lensless Mark, Mohawk Mark and Shiesty Mark really just use super advanced multidimension travel technology just to meet up from time to time to drink beer and play cards?

I think about these things to this day... And lensless' entire brain getting rewired after being praised post-orgasm ofc. Still haunted by how it it was

omggggg yessss i loved that story

i think Lauren wouldn't talk to her at all anymore - probably being a bitch about it too like 'honestly, i always knew there was something off about [y/n]. ASSAULTING Sadie like that? like, wow, grow up.'

Maya, on the other hand, is way more chill about it. even texted you later like 'lauren’s acting like you threw sadie off a balcony. like, girl, it was one punch. calm down lmao'

and yessss i have this little AU headcanon where they didn't all get wrecked in the invincible wars & mohawk has angstrom as his own personal Dr. Strange type lmao. maybe got him to create some type of tech that could open up portals for them & he uses it to meet up with his boys (lensless & shiesty are the only two he fucks with. he used to like emperor but he was kinda too high strung so they all collectively agreed to stop opening portals to his dimension lmfaooo)

[darkrpfinders]

🥩💖 Hello‼️ I’m a 23yo trans dude looking for 18+ writers for some LONG TERM dead dove/super dark fandom roleplays, specifically Invincible, The Boys, and Cookie Run.

I tend to trans some dude’s genders, which is nonnegotiable!

I really want to have gore, cannibalism, eroguro + snuff, and power imbalances in the roleplay, but obviously, I can adjust accordingly (only regular gore is nonnegotiable for me, sorry). Other things I dig are yandere (although I heavily prefer that the characters are both crazy for each other), dubcon and noncon. All can be discussed later.

I am semi to advanced lit, and I would like my partners to be around the same range. Quality over quantity for me! ALSO, it’s okay if it takes weeks or even months for a partner to reply, as I still will be interested even in their absence. I just need a heads up first.

If you don’t care for the roleplay anymore or lost your muse or something else, I would heavily appreciate it if you’d tell me before leaving. Communication is key.

Smut is a must, but don’t let that think that it will be the only thing happening in the roleplay. I LOVE narratively driven stories, and I write my replies as such (roleplaying multiple characters in a scene is second nature to me and I really don’t mind it, so don’t feel too pressured to mirror me there). For the plots I have in mind, most will have several story arcs, and usually an end goal, but this can all be talked about and discussed!

I prefer wacky AUs to canon divergence, as I love worldbuilding and seeing where everyone would fit inside it. Canon divergence isn’t completely off the table though; I just have a preference. I am in LOVE with the concept of cakeverse and I really want to add those types of elements into the rp, though!

OOC chatter is a MUST, though. I LOVE talking about the rp and how it’s going. I may even draw some stuff too if I’m enjoying it a lot (for some pairings here I will draw ideas/concepts if I think it will help get whatever point across). I want to make friends, not just roleplay like it’s a job.

Now, onto the pairings - highlighted characters are the ones I prefer to muse and italicized characters take higher priority than those that aren’t. If they are both highlighted, then I’m comfortable with either or (some of my top/bot dynamics are not fixed, but my dom/sub dynamics are, just a heads up).

Invincible

Mark Grayson x William Clockwell

•one of my favorite pairings. I’ve been playing around with the idea/AU of an evil/morally dark grey Mark who is a pure-blooded Viltrumite (Debbie is a Viltrumite here) arriving to Earth for the first time with Nolan and Debbie. He meets and saves William his first week on Earth and.. it goes from there.

Mark Grayson x ..Mark Grayson

•Selfcest is so, so good actually - Evil Mark x Good Mark! They get trapped in a dimension together thanks to Angstrom and have to find their way back to their own timelines, but not without fighting first, of course.

Invincible/The Boys

Omni-Man x Homelander

•Another favorite pairing of mine. I have a few plots in mind that are not canon divergent at all (mainly a space pirate au where Homelander is actively getting hunted for various crimes, but I also really like the idea of the two meeting in an MK1 tournament!), but again, everything can be discussed. All I ask for is that Homelander gets manipulated like hell 💖

The Boys

Homelander x Billy Butcher

•I’m still fairly new to this ship (and The Boys parings in general), but I really love their dynamic. There’s no set plot or ideas here, we can brainstorm something together. I would like Billy to be manhandled a little bit ✨

(MALE) Stormfront x Homelander

•Ok I will admit, this is pretty out of left field. I’m a show only, and I recently found out that Stormfront was originally a guy in the comics. I’m aware that the two medias are VERY different in story, but I’d like to combine bits and pieces of both of them into something weird and new, like this version of the ship, for example.

Cookie Run (Kingdom & Tower of Adventures)

Milk Cookie x Dark Choco Cookie

•This is probably one of the few times where I prefer standard yandere dynamics to knife romance or mutual yandere shenanigans. Milk Cookie being absolutely obsessed with and overprotective of his prince.. he’s chasing after him in the pancake tower, trying to reunite with him, maybe. (Also, I’ve been brainstorming a silly superhero au with them and how Dark Choco was once a hero turned evil due to corruption, and Milk is trying to save him/bring him back by any means necessary).

And that’s it! Very long winded of me, sorry about that. Either like this post and I’ll dm you, or just dm me! Ty~

How Do Viltrumite Powers Work?

How Do the Viltrumite Powers Work? In the comics and the Invincible animated series, we see the incredible powers of this alien race. The "explanation" we're given is that this civilization advanced enormously and developed the biological abilities of its members to the extreme. However, after seeing the incredible abilities of these creatures, it's hard to believe that such powers come from mere biological abilities.

Why don't they use wings to fly? How do they survive in space? And perhaps the most important question: How do they accumulate and unleash such amounts of energy? And perhaps we could generalize the question even further, to the point of asking, where do superheroes in general get such enormous amounts of energy? How can Superman shoot laser beams from his eyes!? How long would he have to absorb the sun's energy to achieve something like that?

This is the english version of a blog post in spanish. If you find any mistake, please leave a comment.

There are cases like Iron Man, where we've already reasoned this out enough. But there are other "superheroes" whose powers are so extreme that they make no sense. In the case of the Viltrumites, however, we could find an explanation, and interestingly, the idea begins with Atom Eve.

Before continuing, let's clarify that we're talking about a completely fictional topic, right? The origin of these powers is entirely in the hands of their creators, in this case, Robert Kirkman. So what follows can only be classified as a "fan hypothesis" and little more.

Cosplay by Kamiko_Zero

Where Do Atom Eve's Powers Come From?

In Atom Eve's origin story, we learn that before she was born, a group of powerful scientists endowed Samantha with the ability to change matter. This ability even allows Eve to fly. However, Eve has blocks that inhibit her from changing living matter, limiting her powers. But under certain extreme circumstances, Samantha is able to overcome these barriers, a detail that will be important for our hypothesis later on…

Despite these explanations, questions remain, for example, where does Eve get the energy to make such changes? Modifying one molecule into another isn't that costly (depending on the molecules). But changing matter at the atomic level is completely different and very costly.

So, let's move on to the next part of the hypothesis.

By gurjeetsingh.art

Parallel Universes in Invincible

As we've seen through the stories of Angstrom Levy and the Flaxans, in Invincible we encounter a variety of parallel universes, and accessing them doesn't seem so difficult.

So the hypothesis would be this: would it be possible that Atom Eve is accessing a parallel universe full of energy? It could be a universe in its infancy, barely emerging from its Big Bang (as in a certain Asimov novel). That could provide her with an enormous amount of energy, and transforming matter would be easy.

How could Eve access parallel universes? In the same way that Angstrom Levy does, using her brain. Perhaps like Freeman Dyson's Quantum Mind Hypothesis. Perhaps quantum phenomena occur in our brains that we don't yet understand, which gives rise to consciousness.

In Atom Eve's case, these quantum phenomena not only give rise to consciousness but also give her access to a parallel universe full of energy, making manipulating matter trivial.

What does this have to do with the powers of the Viltrumites?

Atom Eve's powers and the Viltrumites' powers are different sides of the same coin

Could it be possible that Samantha's powers and those of the Viltrumites are different versions of the same ability? Where Samantha is capable of modifying matter in general, but is limited to inanimate matter, the Viltrumites could have a similar ability, but limited to their own bodies.

This means that they do indeed have access to a parallel universe of immense energy, but are limited to using that energy within the confines of their own bodies. This would allow them to fly and demonstrate enormous strength and endurance, but without being able to modify matter outside of themselves.

We see some clues to this in the Viltrumites' incredible regenerative capacity and their ability to travel through space at enormous speeds for long periods of time.

But perhaps the biggest clue is that the Viltrumites, like Atom Eve, are capable of great feats in emergency situations. This means that they are able to overcome their limitations under certain circumstances.

Could they similarly explain the powers of other heroes in the same universe? Could this be an explanation for the powers of other superheroes outside of this universe? If you think about The Flash and his "Speed ​​Force," there's a certain similarity…

What do you think? Do you think this is a plausible hypothesis? Leave your thoughts in the comments.

The Revolutionary Application of Quartz Plate in Semiconductor Packaging

‌The Revolutionary Application of Quartz Plate in Semiconductor Packaging: Why These Four Designs Are Game-Changers‌ Let’s cut through the noise: semiconductor packaging isn’t just about chips anymore—it’s about the materials that cradle them. Quartz plates, once relegated to lab equipment, are now the unsung heroes of microelectronics. But not all quartz is created equal.

 I’ve seen firsthand how four specific designs—‌round transparent quartz glass plates‌, ‌tempered quartz sight glass‌, ‌OEM customized optical square/round quartz glass plates‌, and ‌square UV transparent quartz plates‌—are rewriting the rules of reliability and precision. Here’s why they matter.

1. Round Transparent Quartz Glass Plates: The Purity Powerhouse‌

Imagine a material so pristine it makes surgical steel look rusty. Round transparent quartz plates, with ‌>99.99% SiO₂ purity‌, are the gold standard for wafer handling in extreme environments. Take TSMC’s 3nm node fab: by replacing ceramic carriers with these plates, they reduced particulate contamination by ‌78%‌ during high-temperature annealing‌1. The secret? Zero metallic ions means no unwanted doping—critical when a single stray atom can wreck a billion-transistor chip.

But purity isn’t their only trick. Their thermal stability (up to 1,200°C) allows rapid thermal processing (RTP) cycles without warping—a feat that aluminum nitride plates fail at after 50 cycles‌.

‌2. Tempered Quartz Sight Glass: When Failure Isn’t an Option‌

Vacuum chambers in EUV lithography systems demand visibility and invincibility. Tempered quartz sight glass, chemically strengthened via ion exchange, laughs at 10⁻⁸ Torr pressures while providing distortion-free inspection windows. ASML’s latest EUV machines use these panels to monitor plasma arcs—where standard fused silica would cloud within weeks under 13.5nm radiation‌.

The kicker? Their surface hardness (9 Mohs) prevents scratches from robotic handlers—eliminating the “fogged window” failures that once caused 12% of lithography tool downtime‌.

‌3. OEM Customized Optical Square/Round Quartz Plates: Geometry Meets Photonics‌

Why settle for off-the-shelf when light manipulation demands perfection? Customized optical quartz plates, with sub-λ/4 flatness, are enabling breakthroughs in chip-scale photonics. Intel’s optical interconnects team credits square quartz plates—etched with nanoscale grating patterns—for achieving ‌92% light coupling efficiency‌ in their silicon photonics modules‌12. The rectangular edges align perfectly with waveguide arrays, something round plates can’t match.

But round variants shine too: their radial symmetry minimizes stress birefringence in laser diode packaging—a must for 800G DR4 transceivers‌.

‌4. Square UV Transparent Quartz Plates: The Dark Horse of Advanced Packaging‌

UV-curing adhesives are the glue holding 2.5D/3D packages together—literally. Square UV quartz plates, transmitting ‌>90% at 254nm‌, ensure uniform curing while blocking IR heat that warps interposers. Samsung’s HBM4 stack line reported a ‌30% yield boost‌ after switching to these plates, as their sharp corners align with die edges to prevent adhesive bleed-out‌.

Bonus: Their UV transparency doubles as a built-in quality check—uncured resin fluoresces under 365nm light, visible through the plate‌.

‌Why This Isn’t Just Progress—It’s a Paradigm Shift‌

Critics argue quartz is “too brittle” or “too niche.” Tell that to the engineers who’ve seen:

‌Round plates‌ slash cleanroom particle counts by filtering airborne contaminants during robotic transfers‌.

‌Square UV plates‌ enable fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP) for wearables, where 0.1mm thickness tolerances are non-negotiable‌.

While graphene and GaN hog headlines, quartz plates work silently in the trenches—enabling the angstrom-scale precision our connected world demands.

‌The Bottom Line‌ In semiconductor packaging, the difference between “functional” and “flawless” lies in the materials you trust. These four quartz plate designs aren’t just components—they’re enablers of a future where chips aren’t just smaller, but smarter. If your supply chain hasn’t embraced them yet, you’re not just behind the curve—you’re ignoring the bedrock of modern electronics.

Explore Intel Nova Lake CPUs’ 2026 features

2021 was the year that saw the first discovery of information pertaining to the Nova Lake family of processors developed by Intel. Back then, it was projected that the family would debut in 2025 with a significantly revised Core architecture aimed at the desktop enthusiast market. This was the expectation. This would be analogous to the manner in which AMD’s Ryzen processors of the first generation enhanced overall performance.

There have been no new advancements pertaining to this family since the previous update; however, currently, sources close to Moore’s Law Is Dead claim that Nova Lake is still in the works, despite the fact that its launch window has been unexpectedly shifted to H2 2026. MLID also provides a number of preliminary specifications, although it is highly doubtful that these will be finalized at this juncture due to the vast time horizon.

In the second half of the year 2026, Nova Lake, the successor of Arrow Lake Refresh, would be made available for public consumption. It would have up to 180 MB of last level cache, as well as P-cores with a maximum of 16 rentable units, E-cores with a maximum of 32, and LP cores with a maximum of 4. It is possible that it was fabricated utilizing nodes from either Intel’s own 14A manufacturing process or TSMC’s N2P fabrication process.

Even though Intel has claimed that it should no longer be dependent on TSMC’s manufacturing nodes by the year 2025, it looks that Nova Lake may still be built mostly on TSMC’s N2P nodes, if not fully on Intel’s replacement of the 18A node, which MLID refers to as the 14A node. This is despite the fact that Intel has stated that its dependence on TSMC’s manufacturing nodes should halt by the year 2025. Everything rests on whether or not Intel can successfully ramp up manufacturing of angstrom nodes over the next few years.

For the time being, it is projected that Nova Lake will consist of a maximum of sixteen rentable unit performance cores (owing to developments in hyperthreading technology), thirty-two improved efficiency cores known as Arctic Wolf, and four low power efficiency cores. The performance that this core count should deliver should be sufficient to compete with whatever comes after AMD’s Zen6 processors in the year 2026.

This central processing unit (CPU) should be able to compete with whatever comes after AMD’s Zen6 processors because it offers single-thread performance boosts of 20–40% higher than Arrow Lake and a massive boost of 60+% higher than the next Raptor Lake Refresh. It is projected that high-end Core Ultra 9 processors may include as much as 180 MB of cache memory at the very last level, while Core Ultra 7 computers may acquire as much as 144 MB of cache memory.

The information that was received through MLID’s prior leaks indicated that AMD will most likely debut its Zen6 processors by the end of 2025, while the launch of the Zen7 might take place as early as 2027. If Intel were to launch Nova Lake at the end of 2026, the company’s primary objective would be to play catch-up and unseat Zen6 as the market leader, not Zen7.

Because of this, Intel’s release schedule would become wildly out of sync, and the company would continue to lag behind AMD by one step for the foreseeable future. This would put Intel in a worse position than AMD.
