#The solution

[keferon]

So. I went online and bought this Transformers generations Blurr toy and holy shit nothing prepared me for the lore on the back of it’s box o_o

Also every time Blurr gets to be a sniper my soul ascends a little bit~

What would happen in an AU where the yeerks found David on the island post-#22? Like, say the yeerks notice that the andalite bandits have ditched David, and then Tom or Chapman or someone hears the story about the disembodied voice on the island?

I don't know how to write this one without a total party kill. Anyone else have thoughts?

Art Drama is in the blood

“What are we here for at all? I really think that you might treat us with more frankness.” Holmes laughed. “Watson insists that I am the dramatist in real life,” said he. “Some touch of the artist wells up within me, and calls insistently for a well-staged performance.

Come on, Holmes! You live for drama, you breath drama, you eat drama, you are the drama!

The Solution: oh my god the idea of a drone au with a russian mafia that the drones got thrown away from is slightly funny

how's yeva feeling about her past coming back in the form of a drone who should be dead, now back from said death, and is bringing along her good pal tessa along?

Technically, I was using the Italian-American terminology, as the Russian Mafia worked differently, but for this fic, the cell that Cyn and Yeva are part of worked on that principal. That said, they are the only two remaining family members, and... Yeva is not happy about it.

But this could be good, Cyn could be persuaded to not recruit others, and... Wait, was Uzi's first words really "Rail Gun"? She needs to keep these two apart.

You will excuse these remarks from one who, though a mere connoisseur of crime, is still rather older and perhaps more experienced than yourself.” “I'm the first to admit that,” said the detective heartily. “You get to your point, I admit; but you have such a deuced round-the-corner way of doing it.”

So amused by this whole scene. Holmes, brimming full of information and being so excited to share it, yet in typical ADHD-like manner being unable to organise his thoughts enough to sort out the important bits (and what is the fun in that anyway? no Drama) so he just attempts to tell everything. This does not go down well with the detectives, obviously - they after all don't share Watson's endless patience and obsession for anything Holmes-related - so they're listening in growing despair of ever learning anything useful and then finally there's this exasperated, yet almost gentle roasting from MacDonald

Me, looking at a foreign language:

Me: I cannot read those words. That is very cool.

"<I'm nuts? Hey, I'm not the one threatening to kill anyone's parents, you crazy witch.>"

David definitely used a word other than 'witch' here, right?

unpopular opinion but as someone with both fibro and mental illnesses i just find it very ironic when people with fibro claim they have it harder/try to gatekeep just because it’s physical… like girlypop in real life people are going to think you’re crazy too. people are going to dismiss you for the same reasons they dismiss neurodivergent/mentally ill people. people don’t believe in fibro. you’re grouped with the autistic kids you shit on on tumblr in the oppressors’ head. you’re not any different than someone experiencing pain because of say, depression. hell our illness is treated with anti-depressants for gods sake!

the tension when you want to play with aging off and get to keep your sims forever but also want to play normally (with a 48-h pregnancy mod) to see genetics play out and definitely don’t want 8 generations cohabitating in the hood like a 2007 legacy

okay i need to appeal to somebody with greater knowledge and greater ability to crowdsource: i’m trying to find out what happened to the real saddler. and everyone is telling me they found his body at the bottom of the elevator shaft but nobody has given me a SOURCE and i feel crazy cause i swear 22 just does not say that anywhere. is my pdf defective? do they say it in a later book?

So what it says in #22: a doctor tells Saddler's mom "Your son's heart stopped. We were rushing him to surgery, but in all honesty he was not going to make it... Then, as they were taking him up to the O.R., something happened with the elevator. It jammed or... or something. The nurse and doctor who were with him seemed to have been knocked out. When they came to, the elevator was working again. They rushed your son to surgery where he... he opened his eyes!" (p. 104-105). The doctor waves his hands and protests about Saddler being uninjured a while longer, and then sends him home.

When Rachel explains that they're trapping David in morph, she says "David's life would end, just the same. And so would 'Saddler's.' Eventually, they would find the real Saddler's body, and then they would know, at least for them, there was no such thing as a miracle."

Judging by what we know of David's morphs and character, I'm guessing it's something like:

He waits around until Saddler's in the elevator (or triggers it by fucking with the heart monitor)

He pulls a fire alarm and/or emergency shutdown

He gets into the elevator as a roach and uses cobra venom or hospital drugs to take the doc and nurse down

He acquires and morphs Saddler

He takes the elevator to the morgue and dumps Saddler there

He gets in bed and waits for the doctor and nurse to recover

But we don't know what happened to the real Saddler. I've seen the theory that David morphed lion and ate him, or that he stashed him in an unused room. I think people refer to Saddler getting tossed down an elevator shaft because he disappeared inside an elevator, not necessarily being literal. (Like, how would David access it?)
