#The vast tma

[thermodynamic-comedian]

sun-themed vast avatar.

statement about someone who tried to paint the sun, but kept making it bigger and bigger, always unhappy with how small it was. eventually they finished the project, and it was just a tiny, tiny speck on the canvas. the statement giver asked them why it was so small. they said "oh, it's not small at all. you're just very, very far away." and when the statement giver looked back at the painting, the speck started growing, getting bigger and bigger, and the statement giver felt like they were falling into the painting. eventually it stopped. the painter was visible next to them again, and they merely whispered "really puts things into perspective, doesn't it?"

The Magnus Archives has ruined my ability to be scared because I’ll be afraid for a second then just think about how stupid it is that I’m feeding the vast

The Vast (3/15) “The Neverland”

The Vast (3/15) “Neverland”

The Neverland is a creature which never touches the ground, having stayed in the sky for its entire being, though this does not mean it doesn’t come close to the ground as that is how it gets its victims. The Neverland uses its strong legs and massive talons to snatch up victims when they walk alone. It does not eat them right away, instead tossing and dropping them through the air, devouring their fear before they devour the flesh. It was also known for dive-bombing small planes, ski lifts and gondolas, anything small that moves through the air. When no hunting, it flies among the clouds, the distance from the ground and general silhouette allowing it to disguise itself as a bird. It is likely you have seen the creature but were lucky enough to not walk alone.

I sure hate it when you are peacefully laying in bed trying to sleep before suddenly getting sucked into The Vast, falling in terminal velocity for a few seconds before coming back.

the eye: don't fuck around, do find out.

the lonely: don't fuck around, don't find out.

the spiral: fuck around and desperately try to find out as your mind unravels, incapable of comprehending the beautiful paradoxes of the throat of deceit.

the stranger: fuck around and find out. (it will skin you.)

the corruption: fuck around, don't find out. do meet some worms though. lots of them. mmmmm worms.

the buried: you cannot fuck around. you cannot find out. there is so much dirt on top of you.

the dark: you really can't do much but fuck around. good luck finding out shit in there though.

the desolation: fuck around and find out. (fire and agony edition.)

the end: fuck around and you will not be on this mortal plane long enough to find out.

the flesh: the ultimate fuck around and find out. what can a human body really do? you're about to see!

the hunt: fuck around and find out how long you have left to exist as you are chased through darkened woods. you cannot see what is behind you. you will find out.

the slaughter: fuck around and find out, you've got this flamethrower for a goddamn reason.

the vast: don't fuck around, don't find out. you couldn't if you wanted to. same as the dirt guy, you're in this fucking sky and there's nothing you can do about it.

the web: don't fuck around, don't find out. or do. either way, is it really you that's doing anything at all?

Isa "The Founder". I think the Vast is way too perfect for her given she lives in the sky with seemingly nothing but an endless expanse

Entities That Go Well Together, And Why

by ifthestarsarewilling on Tumblr

The Eye 🤝 The Web

How can you manipulate someone without knowing lots about them?

-~-~-

The Desolation 🤝 The End

The End is the fear of death, and the Desolation is the fear of loss. When someone dies, you lose them.

-~-~-

The Vast 🤝 The Dark

The unknown aspect of the Dark mixes well with the large and unknowable Vast

-~-~-

The Spiral 🤝 The Stranger

If you see something that seems so very wrong, are you going mad or is that thing actually uncanny valley?

-~-~-

The Flesh 🤝 The Slaughter

You are nothing more than meat, and you will be slaughtered for food like a pig

-~-~-

The Lonely 🤝 The Hunt

The ones that are hunting you are in a pack, but nobody is coming to save you. You are alone.

-~-~-

The Buried 🤝 The Corruption

You can't be underground for too long without seeing a worm.

Freefall

My OC in TMA AU. I just love the style of The Vast

[thermodynamic-comedian]

i really like the little detail that the fairchilds aren't a real family, but rather just a name, whereas the lukases are a biological family, but deeply disconnected from each other. the vast sees no inherent value in names, they hold no meaning and can be given away like a gift to anyone it wants to mark. the lonely sees no value in family bonds, they can be severed at any indication of disloyalty, but are still preferable to chosen bonds.

I wanna be an Avatar of The Vast because I want to go up to a super high sky scraper observatory crowded with people scream "See ya later fuckers!" Flip everyone off then jump backwards off the building with no consequences. Because Simon Fairchild was right scaring the shit out of innocent bystanders is funny as fuck.

[kweer-vampyr]

the vast avatars are everything to me

srry if it looks quite bad, im working on a new style ✌️

So... so are we gonna talk about how cruel it was that we spent the entirely of mag 91 learning about how Mike Crew had spent so long finding the entity that called to him and finally becoming content with his life after being linked to the vast, only for his BODY TO BE BURIED UNDER GROUND???? Like, y'know, the opposite of the vast???? Justice for Mike Crew.
