I'm so cooked. They handed me Cipher and this is Sampo #2 to me. I'm unwell. She's everything I could ever ask for in a character.

She's fumking kibty. She's tortured. She's cheeky. She's masking. She loves her friends so much. She's avoiding the issue. She's silly on main. She is haunted by the horrors. She's a performer. She doesn't want the spotlight. She is talented and confident. She hates herself. She will play every trick in the book and laugh. She wants to do things right, but this is all she's good at. Her commitment is to the bit: seeing everyone happy and safe. She wants to live. She wants so badly to live. She's so afraid. She has so much money but that's not what she really wants. But getting what she wants could ruin everything she's worked for and she'll be left with nothing. So she runs and lies and cheats and steals and laughs.

She will always have the last laugh.

research tips for electric train whump:

-INDUSTRIAL MAINTENANCE SOURCES ARE YOUR FRIEND! There’s not much stuff specifically about trains but basic concepts (maintenance and repair of AC or DC motors, transformers, rectifiers, other heavy electrical equipment) largely carry over from sources about elevators or substations. There’s a lot of good videos on youtube about these topics, look into stuff aimed at apprentice electricians or industrial maintenance, it will generally be more visual/metaphor and less math-heavy if you struggle with that.

-many “breakdowns” are actually due to power infrastructure issues- third rail and catenary wires have different problems and these further vary based on how old they are. Fixed-tension catenaries on the former Pennsylvania Railroad are a notorious issue. The more modern the line, the less weird stuff you’ll have, but much of the US, parts of the UK, and a number of spots in mainland Europe have more unusual and antiquated electrification systems. And this is also an issue with model trains between brands and eras!

-On a related note, pantograph designs have varied by time and place and have different advantages/disadvantages/issues. You even have times when they have a uniquely bad time with old catenaries, like old Comet EMUs specifically getting snarled in those constant-tension PRR catenaries

-Never underestimate how “dumb” and un-computery a lot of electric trains actually are, especially circa the 80s. “Toaster” isn’t even an inaccurate insult for older DC-motor trains, they literally brake using huge resistors that put out a ton of heat… like a giant toaster. And the really old, simple stuff tended to last a stupidly long time in service so you can 1000% wave off a 20s-era engine or EMU in the 80s.

-If you want some really easy ones that have actually happened before: connecting to too strong of a power source and getting FRIED, and having wires ripped out willy-nilly by techs not familiar with electric trains that don’t know what they’re doing. Weaponized incompetence with anything electrical checks out with how even a lot of train people know very little about it and don’t care.

-model trains also have a lot of beginner-friendly electrical info you can work from

Piggy-backing off of the ask about how it's hard to imagine being in Omega's shoes and not getting to have fun with body mods or hair colors (it's fun that we all just... take other people's thoughts and can keep building on them as a community, I love it here)

Imagine Simon caves and brings Omega along when he gets a tattoo added to his sleeve for her, and halfway through the appointment she just wanders out of the room to look around. They get in the car and he realizes she went and got her ears pierced while he was being tattooed. Think Claire's-level little strawberries or teddy-bear head studs and she is just SO excited over them but he snorts at her on accident and she pouts the entire ride home 🥺 (He makes it up to her however she sees fit. Cooking her dinner... doing her laundry for the week... railing her into next Tuesday...)

Lmao she sneaks away to get her ears pierced that's so cute 🥹 she'd so get teddy bear ones just to make him more annoyed lmaooo.

He's doing her laundry for sure, but also railing her into next Tuesday 😌

Emailing and calling doesn't have to stop at your politicians. If you can, email your school or your work and your union if you have one, but don't stop there. Any local organisation with a publicly available email address - environmental rights groups because this is an environmental crisis too, churches because look what's happening to Gaza's Christians, childrens charities, hospitals and health centres, journalists and newspapers, anything you can think of. Some will ignore you, some won't, some will already be organising shit in which case it's a good way to get involved
