I don't think this guy knows what an equation is.

The fact that Wrecker had just referenced Tech’s death here, and this was Hunter’s genuine reaction…

It’s so heartbreaking because this is really the only time we can see just how devastated he is by Tech’s death. Sure, it’s present when he tells Omega in Plan 99, but some of that devastation stems from her own reaction to the news. This is just Hunter, months later, looking as worn and devastated as he likely was when it had only just happened. It never got easier for him.

“Meanwhile, on Pabu”

Wrecker thinks he can just water their garden in peace. WELL HE CAN’T

[echos-gal]

I think part of Echo's appeal as a character lies in his unbreakable kindness. This man has been through hell.

Right off the bat we see him lose 3 of his squad members - his closest brothers - on Rishi Station. He tries to secure their shuttle at the Citadel and loses 3 limbs in the explosion. Then he becomes a prisoner of war and is subject to medical experimentation.

He is rescued and learns that the remaining member of his original squad is gone (Fives), the one he was closest with. With all of his new cybernetic parts, he feels like he no longer fits in with the rest of the GAR, so he joins the unconventional squad that rescued him. Then he loses the new squad member he was closest with (Tech). Again.

And yet Echo STILL KEEPS GOING. He is so dedicated to devoting the entire remainder of his second chance at life to saving as many fellow clones as possible. He isn't bitter or mean. He's kind and selfless. We've seen how sweet he is with Omega.

ECHO HAS A HEART OF GOLD AND DESERVES THE ENTIRE GALAXY

THE SCREAM I SCRUMPT

[cryingpariah]

You know how kids these days are getting more tech-literate younger and younger? Considering that Blue Planet is only now starting to receive something of a technological revolution at least on a small scale with Vegapunk, this means most of the world has very little clue about how to adapt to it. Especially the Warlords, the majority of whom are in their 30s-40s.

This is my long-winded way of saying the Seraphim run circles around their templates when it comes to technology. Especially since they themselves are technology.

A Cross Guild meeting is starting and Gryphon says in his outside voice "Baba! Your snail pad flashlight is on!"

Ah yes, the true curse of youth: having to explain technology to your parents.

Many a time has Gryphon had to explain how to flip the camera around only for Mihawk to just…flip the tablet completely?? It works but still.

Buggy constantly forgets his passwords to everything and is flabbergasted every time his kids say that they too don't know his password and therefore cannot help him.

Richard and Isabella are actually halfway decent on the desktop snail-puter but how slow they type drive Lami and Monty up a wall! Koalas and Turtles could run marathons in the time it takes for them to access the World Wide Web!

Boa absolutely hates texting. Truly and honestly can’t stand it. What was so wrong with letters? Or just showing up in person? This new generation…Her workaround is sending every text like it’s a letter, signing it off with her name and everything. Thea cringes with every notification.

Jimmy and Bonney take it upon themselves to educate Sorbet on all things tech…it goes about as well as you’d expect. There are lines around the block of people asking why the pound signal is now called a hashertag.

Now Perona being significant younger than the others should objectively make her better at tech…and that’s half right. She has this habit of never charging a device ever so when it dies she just buries it and buys another. The amount of snell phones and snail pads Ashken has had to grave-rob is truly ludicrous!

Tech and sea water don’t really mix but when the new 1000% waterproof versions drip-dropped Jinta was ecstatic! His parents now had a way to enjoy the wonders of technology. What Jinta did not account for was hearing the blaring volume that every video is played at.

My friend sent me this and said "if the pants were shiny it would be Felwinter". And now I can't I see it 😂

My god, I thought it was Morpheus

Aajkshdgfjhs, the fact that he's flexing on a father's grave adds so much to this 😂 Scene straight from Big Red's fever nightmare lmao

[rawenky]

ever since he ended up swallowed by one, mitch has an irrational fear of chomp kitty and he avoids the game like the plague.

and then his trainee ridley whom he is starting to grow very fond of decides to show him her creations, namely horn, and he runs away screaming

Locations in Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord -- the Castle, the Adventurer's Inn (Visa and Mordorcharge accepted), the Temple of Cant where dead adventurers can be raised for a fee, and Boltac's Trading Post which has a monopoly on adventuring gear. (Will McLean illustrations from the game manual, Sir-Tech Software, 1981) In actual game play each of these is a short text menu, with commands input by single letters, so the manual illustrations and text help suggest a more detailed world.

As seen on Romar's fridge! Ace is an old sobriquet for military aviators credited w/ shooting down 5+ enemy aircraft during aerial combat

This piece is a New Year’s gift for a staunch friend who has often been the Tech to my Wrecker in the best ways for many months now 💀���️. In a world where opinions and differing personalities divide, we've promised each other to try to let them enlighten. We're both trying to grow and be better, and we will be leaning on each other and the TBB community to make it happen. Brace yourselves, because I'm one heavy motherfucker lol ❤️
