Ok look imma cut to the chase and skip a lot of things. Also these are my abilites. Idk about my OC and its 100s of versions. Be aware that im going off the fucking Alien X Retrospective video cause The Ink Tank is based.

Autism: "but autism isnt a power" shut the fuck up you wish you knew half the shit in interstellar. I can u derstend every rick and morty joke from the lowest fart joke to the Multiversal Fracking done by rick prime. As we say in italy, you can attach yourself to it and pull hard.

Functional Immortality: gamers dont die, they respawn (doesnt mean you cant win you floppycock)

Metaphysical Awareness Disorder: apparently being near Me means people feel like widdle bunnies near me... unless theyre on a higher tier than me. And I can list like 3 people here on tumblr (@itsapmseymour, @pukicho, @biggest-gaudiest-patronuses) that im pretty sure would go like "dude you look like you smoked the entirety of mandela catalogue are you ok" i have an ability where i can look at LITERALLY ANYONE so hard they start becoming crying, babbling messes of Being Sorry For Their Actions.

References: all of them. JoJo. SCP. Undertale. Lancer RPG. Maybe one day even homestuck! Gimme a fucking minute here.

Command Prompt: sometimes the above isnt enough. This isnt a combat ability because i have no fucking reason to use it in combat. It would be stupid. I would just get down to the level of the average wizardposting poster. And im above such cringe.

Overly specific weaknesses: Cimmerian telling me im wrong. Not being able to truly tank Hollow Purple. Im not immune to everything no matter how much autism i slap at it. Good grief

Isolation: i can shut off like a computer and have a space, called Reference Space, where nothing ever no matter what can reach me without my permission. Reference Space however is also the deepest insides of this blog. Its basically my office, where i work tirelessly to make sure none of the fandoms im in... misbehave

To anybody having a problem with this:

Get a fucking life.

Apparently the new discourse in IDW Sonic at the moment is about Amy's power level and whether she's really strong enough to take out a giant robot with a giant hammer. At least I think that's what it is.

I think I lost several years of my life expectancy going through those tweets. If you're gonna criticize IDW Sonic at least point out things that are worth criticizing, and lord knows the last year of issues has given us plenty.

Thinkin about how bad powerscaling discourse is again lmao.

Y'all really be using real life physics and math for fictional worlds and characters.

You cannot just apply real world physics to fiction unless the author establishes their fictional worlds abides by real life physics. Otherwise, the author has free reign to do anything they want physics be damned.

I do not care if a character needs whatever metric tons of force to pull off a certain feat. It doesn't matter how strong something needs to be to break a boulder of a certain size. If the author didn't give the numbers themselves then you're projecting reality on a character that doesn't exist in it.

As an example, lets take Makoto from Blazblue. She can do an uppercut so hard that it sends her opponent into the moon, plants a giant imprint of her fist on said moon, and shatters the moon completely.

For powerscaling, this would mean Makoto can at any time, blow up the planet by punching really hard. However, in the context of Blazblue Makoto can only do this by getting enough meter to use her Astral Finish. The move is super reactable, Makoto can just whiff or just get blocked. She has to confirm a specific hit that she dumps all her energy into just to do it. Otherwise, Makoto is mostly throwing very strong, but not moon destroying punches. She can't start a fight with that punch nor can she just simply land it.

Are you now telling me anyone who can theoretically out-perform Makoto in hand-to-hand combat enough to not get hit by her Astral Finish is a planatary level threat? That's dumb. Every Blazblue character is capable of withstanding a moon obliterating attack because they can block? That's even more dumb!

Also that word: "perform". That's important in any battle. You can't apply numbers to a performance, that's a skill. Real life MMA fighters don't win their battles because of their powerscaling numbers. It's just raw skill expression of battle. Not to mention the numerous other factors that go into a fight. How's their mental health, physical health, the environment, weather, focus, knowledge of who they're fighting, and what are their wants and needs?

If you ask me, any character can win any fight all thanks to our lord and saviour:

Context

That's what makes a fight fun.

Also FUCK POWERSCALERS

Nerds on YouTube: I have taken the exact measurements of this manga panel to determine that Naruto is moving 73 times faster than the speed of light!

Kishimoto at the time of writing the scene, probably: Haha magic fox powers go brr

Seriously I promise you, you nerds care way more about this power scaling shit than the guys who write the stories ever have.

Okay, first official thing!

Ignore my testing thing! This is my first official message:

Kujo Jotaro can easily beat your favorite franchise.

[bigfan1811]

Me most of the time: “powerscaling isn’t really that important compared to good storytelling, and most online powerscaling discussions extrapolate way too much from vague statements and feats. It may be important to know which characters in your work are stronger, but even weak underdogs winning can work as long as you know how to write it”

Me when someone disses my favourite characters: NUH UH FUCK YOU, KIRBY IS UNIVERSE LEVEL, GODZILLA IS UNIVERSE LEVEL, FUCKIN MINECRAFT STEVE IS UNIVERSE LEVEL, I DON’T CARE

i know we don't talk about powerscaling much here but i just saw someone say the world nobles (including the five elders) could beat ANY group in one piece on their own, no navy, no cipher pol, and everyone was agreeing

like am i the only one who thinks that sounds insane???
