Taylor when she went out in that dress to do skitter business

[notalittleatall]

i think important thing to note in worm is that Cauldrons plan fully succeeded. It wasn’t a very defined plan, but i think it’s worth mentioning that Scion was eventually stopped by Taylor (1) , who lived in the USA on earth Bet (2), who was a supervillain (3) for the first few months of her career, joined the Protectorate(4), was modified by Panacea (5) and managed to become incredibly powerful through her synergy with Clairvoyant and Doormaker (6), and defeated Scion using an army of every cape in existence (7).

(1) A character who was raised in a society indoctrinated with heroic values by cauldron)

(2) A society that only exists because of constant active intervention by cauldron

(3) A stable position in society that only exists because it was artificially created by cauldron for non conforming capes

(4) An organisation founded and maintained by cauldron

(5) An inhabitant of the birdcage, which was created by cauldron to store powerful parahumans in case their abilities could be used for situations like this

(6) Two very powerful capes specifically created by cauldrons human experimentation

(7) Several thousand of which only exist because of Cauldron directly

Like, there’s often a perception especially with new readers that Cauldron were incompetent and committed a bunch of human rights violations for no reason, until Taylor had to step in and use her mega cool powers to show them how it’s really done. But that’s just not accurate, because it’s not accounting for how much of the setting is directly tied to Cauldron. Without Cauldron, Taylor grows up in a post apocalyptic world, where capes have no expectations of using their powers to help others, and live even shorter and more brutal lives than in canon. Cauldrons plan was to maximise their odds of a bullshit power interaction being able to defeat Scion, and it worked! Everyone say thank you doctor mother right now

Happy two years of balled up tissues

To this day, one if my favorite parts of Worm is how when Taylor is first going out in costume, she describes balling up tissues in her coin purse(that she keeps in her utility pack(not a backpack))so that the change wouldn't jingle.

And then, during the Echidna arc, she's held briefly by Miss Militia, who says she needs to look at Taylor's backpack. Taylor goes Actually, It's A Utility Pack. And Miss Militia looks through it and takes an inventory of the backpack, and then finds the coin purse. And she's like Oh, A Coin Purse... With Tissue Inside Of It? Oh! So It Doesn't Jingle! and you can hear Taylor going like

She’s serving Contessa

So this Halloween I realized I owned or could borrow all of the things to make a passable Contessa cosplay, except the hat. Finally had an opportunity to take pictures.

My WORM trailer storyboards for my class!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey all!! Been a while lol, I still exist, and I'm still insane about worm! Enjoy my 16-shot storyboard I made for class! I plan to maybe animate this someday, let me know what you think!

[osteoptimist]

"absolutely bizarre little freak of a woman but all the smart characters know to stay the fuck out of her way" has to be one of my favorite protagonist archetypes.

Vin Mistborn. Taylor Hebert. Baru Cormorant. Maomao apothecary diaries. Mizu blue eye samurai. Harrow the ninth.

Ladies stay unhinged and stay winning

i fear my friend who has read worm is giving me a skewed impression on what worm is about

[zarohk]

Unironically transition goals, and so I would love her as Taylor.

She would be perfect as Taylor Hebert

"Weaver reportedly reached the height of 179 cm (5 ft 10 in) by the age of 11, which had a negative impact on her self-esteem. She recalled feeling like "a giant spider" and never having "the confidence to ever think I could act.""

[webbvidd]

You have a really lovely art style! And your interpretations of characters just feel "correct"

Thank you so much !!! And thank you for the opportunity to elaborate a little bit on how I draw the blorbo☝️

[reyuriwalker]

taylor hebert from worm is a great protagonist because she wanted to be a superhero her whole life, started an intense workout routine to prepare herself, endured horrible bullying because she wanted to keep her powers a secret, made herself a superhero costume using spider silk, but the first night she goes out in costume she almost gets murdered, "necroses" a notorious villain's penis, forms an alliance with the shadiest "hero" there is, gets mistaken for a villain because her costume is too edgy and gets invited to join a supervillain team. all this in the first arc. i love worm.

[benrobertson2004]

Reading the to tropes page for worm because why not and it points out that Taylor is technically the heart of the team for the undersiders and like there not wrong it’s just really funny to think about the girl who had maggots eat someone’s eyes in that role

[victoriadallonfan]

what would a weaver X antares combo move look like?

and what kinda villian/threat would warrant them teaming up?

For a combo move, I'm imagining them filling up the Fragile One to the brim with the swarm (complete with it "breathing" out bugs like one might breathe out fire). Perfect for foes who would be able to destroy or defend against the swarm normally (like pyrokinetics or aerokinetics), if someone thinks to attack the forcefield, itll just pop and release the swarm upon them.

Or a simpler move: Weaver attaches her chords to targets and Victoria has the Fragile One launch upwards, dragging the targets up into the air with her.

I feel like Ingenue would be a good unifying threat.
