what if you went into a bar and the bartender was a fungus-girl and when she gave you your drink she said “you seem like a really fungi!” only some of her spores broke off in the drink and when they reached your stomach they started growing and spreading and entering your bloodstream and at last one reached your brain stem where it planted itself firmly and then your own body started acting against your will and you hiked and you climbed to a very tall place, far above all the foliage, and at last the fungi burst out of your eyes, sprouting into a thousand different intricate colors, and before long a bird girl showed up and started poking at your flesh and you realize in your last moments that this is what it’s all about, you were always meant to join the chain of life only as a single link in some monstrous fungi’s reproductive cycle—and before you can even scream the bird girl plucks your head off with her beak. and and and what if it were like a sexual thing

Y’know what else the wasteland probably has in abundance? Jiggers. The real life vermin native to dry desert regions which burrow into unprotected skin, usually the feet. The areas we see in the games don’t have a lot of readily available resources to make clothing with, so it’s likely that a big portion of the population, especially children, go barefoot. They are removed in the extremely gross way you’d expect, by digging them out with a blade and tweezers then presumably disinfecting the area to remove excess larvae - which sounds like something an untrained wastelander could do for anyone who needed it for a small fee, even if just to provide some temporary relief.

can one feel it? the parasite writhing in your head, making you see those you care about in places where they shouldn't be? one can't deny they have been inflicted with the disease, but one can kill it by straying away from all forms of sea water.

you do not recognize them. the illusion serve to bring you to the water so the parasite can spread further.

YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE THE BODIES ON THE SHORE

Do half tones make up for my addiction to drawing characters in empty voids?

[fakepeppinomybeloved]

been looking for a chance to draw @pudgyoc's parasite pep, decided that artfight was a perfect excuse! I love parasites so the first art I saw of them got me 👀 and they're an excellent use of red and green colors!

A common medical parasite with a symbiotic relationship with humanoids is P. vengativa util. P. util is a predatory, hyperparasitoid protozoa distantly related to Toxoplasma Gondii that inhabits the digestive system of species commonly living in low-population areas.

This protozoan is widely used as parasitic prevention due to the production of a chemical similar to clindamycin during the organism’s reproductive stage. Although not harmful to humanoids, P. util reproduces within other intestinal parasites, either rendering them infertile or killing them, while the chemical it produces prevents further infection. Most organisms with P. util rarely, if ever, have parasetic infactions, most of which are mild and go away quickly.

Commonly regarded as normal bacterial flora, most humanoids will ingest oocysts of the protozoa at a young age or gain them in fetal development to prevent parasitic infections related to or as a cause of ingesting contaminated water, raw meat or other infected substances. 

In addition to sterilizing multicellular parasites, P. util also consumes bacteria typically associated with gastroenteritis in direct response to the body’s immune response. It also consumes some types of stomach flora in herbivorous humanoids, lack of which can be prevented though ingestion of probiotics and fermented foods.

It is typical for oocysts to be ingested at a young age to prevent instability of stomach flora during adulthood (after the body’s immune system has fully developed), which can cause complications such as stomach upset, acid reflux and temporary development of allergies while the digestive ecosystem regains balance. These conditions may be permanent in some cases.
