I'm a very big fan of when specialists debunk crap online because it's ineffective or dangerous.

After THAT happened -
Predictions for general reactions to The Horrors:
Lodgers: stunned silence, some whispering of general disgust
Frankenstein: trying to emphasize how she was right, Jekyll's a genius, look at this triumph, etc. Making it Worse.
Jekyll: barely able to breathe and desperately trying not to sob while covered in goo
Lanyon: deceased
Hyde: also deceased?
Rachel: Hero moment. I thoroughly believe she'll be the first to go to Jekyll and offer him sympathy. She likes Jekyll. She likes Hyde. This is weird and gross but clearly this person (people?) is (are?) having a bad day.
Jasper: Will tag along with Rachel because he's a sweetie like that
#the glass scientists#tgs spoilers#rachel pidgley#making this post solely because i want to see Rachel have a really positive character moment#i mean she's also literally right there#between her and lanyon she is significantly more likely to react to the reveal better

After being Barney’s drinking buddy for a sufficient amount of time, Gordon has noticed a sort of scale he operates in. He keeps a short list in the back of his mind. as a safety precaution:
Buzzed- Drinking has started; hardly noticeable; generally seems more mellow.
Tipsy- A drink or two in; visibly giddier; speech slightly less coherent however still completely intelligible.
Intoxicated- Fully drunk; thick slurring of speech; a threshold is passed.
Hammered- ??; have yet to experience. Hypothesis: he is an emotional drunk
Blackout- have yet to experience, however secondhand encounters inform me of him having to be “dealt with.”
From his own encounters, Barney doesn’t appear to want to get hammered–or even intoxicated very often. Gordon has found that usually a few drinks will do it.
Although, during the Alien marathon weekend a while back there had been conclusive evidence that if in possession of a constant stream of alcohol while also in the correct environment, he will comfortably cross the threshold.
\\\___________///
studying him like a germ under a microscope.
#reminding myself that gordon is in fact a scientist#a scientist who had the most word-crammed thesis title on planet earth#i also hc that a big way he connects with people who he assumes are not similar to him is by conducting experiments#some days he'll greet the guard with a wave and a polite smile#others he'll walk past coldly#it offers him a pathway into someones emotions#he knows how they react and can infer what kind of person they are from there#of course#people arent science experements#so sometimes hes wrong

If Fiddleford never took a look in the portal and didn't damage his mind with the memory-eraser ray, what happened to him in your AU?
That.... is a very good question! I imagine he's still working with Ford in some capacity, but I have very little idea what he's up to.
#answers#I honestly hadn't thought too much about poor Fiddleford; forgive me for missing you sweet old hillbilly scientist man#This has a lot of interesting implications#I wonder how he reacts to Bill#Maybe Ford tries to get him to help with a contraption to contain this menace#Oh hey unintentional synergy with Ford being an enchanter and McGucket also building stuff#They're probably pretty tight unless there was a different disaster that separated them#Who knows!!

Oh boy do I have news for you…
So are we just leaving Jekyll tied to the chair???
(More talking under the cut)

ANYWAYS ON A MORE SERIOUS NOTE
Lanyon not being able to belive at all that Jekyll and Hyde are the same person is perfect. I personally adore the fact that that he couldn’t find it in himself to think that Jekyll, one of Londons FINEST gentleman, and HIS best friend is the culprit for his own situation.
Because I think anyone else would have reacted the same way. Nobody wants to belive it could be a loved one’s fault for the situation they are in, especially one as severere as the situation Jekyll is in.
Lanyon does not have it in him to belive that Jekyll could possibly have done this. He KNOWS it had to have been one of those cooky, eccentric, mad science lodgers..
Right?
Right??
Well, little does he know he’s gonna have a hard pill to swallow :)
Jekyll did this to himself!! And Lanyon, despite telling his beloved Henry to let him know if he “ever went to far”, will be stuck knowing that his beloved Henry did not in fact let him know, or trust him enough to. And Lanyon could do nothing to help.
The person he hates most and the person he loves most are the same person and this is a terrifying moment for him!
#Henry Jekyll is so fucked dude#I feel no sympathy for jekyll#or Hyde for that matter#HOWEVER LANYON?? I FEEL REALLY BAD FOR HIM JESUS CHRISY :(((#And I don’t even usually AGREE with Lanyon#but I feel like most people would have reacted the same way he did!!#tgs jekyll#edward hyde#henry jekyll#tgs hyde#the glass scientists#jekyll and hyde

Sex pollen fic but the characters do it recreationally, like psychedelics
(any number of participants, could be poly)
There's one sober person who ensures everyone gets a good experience
Someone complains about it not working right before the effect hits
The pollenned person gets a lecture on what they should expect
There's That One Scientist who documents everything and loudly announces which region of their brain is shutting down currently
Food is prepared in advance and it's honestly the best part of the experience
There's generally a Procedure and a Culture around it
The pollenned person gets handed sleeping pills if it's a bad trip
I unironically think it could be such a lovely setting for a very sweet and awkward kind of intimacy
#I'm currently living in a country where psylocybin mushrooms and other mild things are legal#so my lab's welcoming ritual is to feed newcomers mushrooms (you can refuse but it's offered and people normally accept)#(things you didn't want to know about scientists)#and while I found the experience itself somewhat underwhelming#the culture around it is very sweet#and I think it should be captured somewhere#also we have a mathematician in our lab who didn't react to a double dose of lsd#he just has this level of control over his own mind#lsd doesn't work on him#and I'm fascinated by it

HOLY FUCK IDENTITY REVEAL, I'LL REPEAT IDENTITY REVEAL!!!!

in front of FRANKENSTEIN, NO LESS!
oh boi she gonna LOVE this old girl won't even know what hit her! …she's just standing there. watching.
tsk tsk, Jekyll, you really gotta work on your timing, but I suppose it's too late for any of that now, is it?

this is me after my running exam /j
I think in this moment Hyde realised the situation they're both in right now…that the secret they've kept under wraps so well for 2 years now, revealed in all its glory to their childhood hero. And they both realised in that moment, they're fucked.

Up next on TGS, Hyde throws hands with an old lady!
seriously though i wanna see Hyde fight tooth and nail with Frankie to get to his office…
on the other hand Frankie is definitely keeping the door shut until Hyde can tell her everything. Everything that had led up to this moment. Maybe she gonna dissect him under a microscope who knows.
be careful what you wish for, kids. Jekyll got his approval from Frankie…but at what cost?

also?!?? SAGE??!! YOU CANT JUST DO THIS AFTER DROPPING THIS BOMBSHELL HELLOOOOOO?! WDYM END OF CHAPTER 14??
okay but chapter 15 is definitely going to be fun for everyone involved I CANT WAIT SKSKRHEJFNSJFK
#kudos to those who guessed Frankie to be the first person to find Jekyll's secret#you guys were right!!#hey at least it's not Lanyon…who would've reacted far worse…#the glass scientists#tgs update#tgs spoilers#kkat's monday rants#bet all the tgs fans new and old are screaming and cheering their lungs out at this

Creature, please come get your mom she's being weird again.
#the glass scientists#glass scientists#I'm VERY happy that Hyde insists he's a different person. it gives me hope he isn't just gonna permanently refuse into Jekyll later#now that I've seen the way Frankenstein is gonna react. i feel better#my anticipation stress is now at normal levels XD

hi elle! would love to hear more about your oc icarus if you want to ramble! particularly about her backstory with the lab stuff, that all sound so intriguing.
MEREDITH HELLO
ohhhh icarus :D okay SO first of all, i've got a playlist for her backstory if you want to check that out here: project icarus (content warning for emotional abuse)
icarus was a test subject created by a band of scientists who have been trying to create a winged person (<- i'm working on figuring out more of their motives/goals, and i don't have much but i think it has something to do with how coveted elytra are from the End, so maybe the scientists are trying to create a way to have elytra without reaching the End? which results in them creating bird hybrids....)
icarus was the First test subject, which meant the scientists hadn't perfected the hybrid form yet. they kept icarus in a tower and raised her there, slowly injecting her with more of the hybrid...stuff (dunno what it'd be Called). to keep her in submission, they were incredibly emotionally abusive & manipulative, and icarus developed a lot of fawning techniques to keep them pleased with her. they took her out of her test-tube when she was, like, sevenish in human years, and then raised her outside the tube in a room at the top of the tower after that, so she was with them for the majority of her childhood + teenage years.
now i am notoriously Not Great at creating plots & backstories sdljsdg, so i will admit her backstory's got lots of gaps and some weak spots xD but essentially, she lives in this room in the tower for most of her life as the scientists take notes & do experiments on her. she grows older, her wings grow stronger, and the one window in her room looks really nice..... she doesn't mean to disobey, she just wants a taste of the fresh air and the clouds look so pretty, as she tries to fly out to the roof of the tower.
well. the scientists stop her, and Are Not Pleased At All. their demeanor changes, and are suddenly a lot more aggressive/violent. it makes her realize she may actually be in danger. so she decides to book it outta there, and breaks out of the window and flies as far away as she can.
but, being Her, and having never Been Outside The Tower Before (yes this has rapunzel vibes xD), she gets really thrilled about the sun and flies too close to it she's gotta live up to her namesake after all which results in her wings burning and her plummeting to her death in a lake.
when she respawns at the lake's bank, her wings are still severely burned & damaged to the point where she can no longer fly. so she decides to make this place she's wound up in her new home. she names it resurrection lake and builds a wooden hut at its edge for shelter. the endermen nearby help by giving her bits of food that they find, since she has no real idea how to Stay Alive (talk about being sheltered). eventually grond arrives and they begin the deep green. :D
#THERE YOU GO#icarus's backstory all in one go!! some bits are iffy (like the whole Big Incident....i guess she tries to leave the window and that's what#makes the scientists react? idk i had to come up with Something.. the way i developed her backstory was so nonlinear dlkjsdlgj#the first thing i knew about it was she flew too close to the sun and plummeted into the now-deep-green#and then i knew scientists kept her in a tower#and then eventuuuually i filled in the rest XD#thank you for asking :DDD#my ocs#the deep green#elle rambles#tdg rambles#tdg content

I wish to know how the SEA family would react to a cloud animatronic?
They wouldn't really have a special reaction to a cloud animatronic, aside from maybe going: I wouldn't have made a cloud animatronic look like that
#OurEssays#Moongleam answers#Scientist Eclipse's Adventures#I should however mention that even if my answer is reacting negatively or neutrally you can go ahead and make yourself an au or something#where they react positively

btw similar to the whole "if you try adderall at a party and it calms you down, get an adhd test" thing, if at some point in your life you try microdosing shrooms with a friend and end up feeling like a functional person for the first time in your life, get tested for depression. like yeah hallucinogens come with elation so youre probably gonna have some "this is the best ive ever felt in my life" vibes regardless, but like. if that in and of itself feels like finally breathing in for the first time in years, thats for sure a sign that something is up with your ability to process serotonin most of the time. feeling better than ever before should be a nice bonus, not a crushing weight off your chest
#fun fact there are currently multiple ongoing studies vis a vis the effectiveness of psilocybin on depression#both on its own and as a companion to ssris#psylocybin targets the 5ht2a serotonin receptors which wikipedia tells me are more numerous in the brains of those with depression#so like. if you spend most of your life feeling like your brain is an aquarium with a leak in it and serotonin is the water and your default#state is 'slightly damp gravel grinding painfully against itself' thats ummm not normal 👍#and on the flipside of that if you have depression that no other med has worked for and know a guy. its 1000% worth it#origibberish#also i say 'wikipedia tells me' as if i just looked it up but that all comes from a long night of spite filled research after i asked my#psychiatrist if we could use the fact that psylocybin worked for me as a basis to like. narrow down which legal antidepressant#might work instead of basically just throwing darts at a board every time#and after several minutes explaining to her that i was not just asking her to prescribe me shrooms but in a legal way she went#'ohhhh yeah no unfortunately theres been no research into that‚ yeah.... sorry......:)'#which. as far as 'lies you come up with on the spot to avoid having to say i dont know' go‚ that is. maybe the worst one to pick#like. 'no‚ thats not an option'? alright fine maybe theres some internal rules or something who knows#'theres no research' though just. immediately tanks any and all credibility 100% even on its own but considering the subject matter?#youre telling me. that humans. the famously curious species that researches fucking Everything. and also Loves playing with drugs. when#trying to figure out how to make drugs that make brains feel good. would not start with the drugs they already knew made brains feel good.#youre telling me that not one (1) singular scientist tried shrooms and went 'oh my god wait. i dont feel like im dying for the first time#ever. holy fuck i need to study this'#complete misplay. absolutely legendary fumble. there were so many ways to fuck it up and somehow you found the worst. congratulations#om the other hand though. really was an excellent setup for the punchline that is the voicemail i have from them saying she'd been fired LOL#they didnt say what for specifically but yknow. based on my own experiences i certainly have theories jebfksbfk#it was annoying in the moment but at the end of the day i have shrooms and she doesnt have the job so. whos laughing now emily KSBFKSBFKDN#this is what i mean though like. rn i feel fine. not on top of the world‚ not like a god#just. fine. i just dont feel like shit. i feel like i can do stuff if i want to‚ or chill peacefully and have it actually be. relaxing.#i dont feel like gravel right now‚ i feel like a person.#and god what a fucking relief it is#really i guess the moral overall is that if at any point you react to trying a new drug the same way an addict craving a hit for days would#then there maybe is something up with your brain chemistry because that means your default state of existence is comparable to that#of withdrawal. a famously shit experience

2024 reads / storygraph
Monstersona
YA sci-fi/romance/thriller
a girl who’s moved across the country after her parents’ divorce, to a small town home to the HQ of an international tech company
when she wakes up to find the labs blown up, town on fire, and her mum likely dead, she, her dog, and a classmate drive across the country to find her dad
but quickly realise they’re being chased by dangerous agents, and there might be something different about the girl she’s traveling with..
explores grief, bi MC & LI
#monstersona#that tag sure isn't gonna be related to this book is it.#chloe spencer#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#I thought this was okay.#tonally a bit all over the place? a lot of it is just road trip traveling dealing with grief meeting random people#then there’s some very fast paced evil scientist people trying to kill them bits#- (or I guess just those parts felt very overdramatic vs the more subtle normal parts)#I had assumed it was going to be like apocalyptic but it’s just their town that burned down. everywhere else (most of the book) is normal#there's some complex exploration of grief; but some other aspects (like her relationship with her father)#could have used a bit more detail/subtlety maybe?#one random thing that I thought was Weird: the LI is like we could get thai; lists a couple basic thai foods that they could order#and the MC is like omg how do you know so much about thai food???#????? i don’t eat thai really but i would not be shocked and surprised at someone just saying they were familiar with it?#why did she react like that?? do they not have thai food in portland??? huh?

rewatching pirates vods for research purposes is one hell of a trip
no, oli, you don't treat bird flu with antibiotics. i'm not even sure if antibiotics were a thing yet in the approximate time period for pirates (note: i looked it up and it's probably anachronistic). but even then, common as hell misconception: viruses can't be treated with antibiotics
(also surprisingly to me, yes, kiwis can be infected with bird flu)
