#ty cyndaaaaaa i will never finish this but i’m fond of it

[waveridden]

extremely curious about special animal who eats people

this is! one of the many irms that i will probably never finish lol but it’s a dudley mueller irm that is in response to 1) some personal ideas i have about the hellmouth and adaptations (tldr i think they should be fucked up genie wishes that mean you’ll survive in the hellmouth But At What Cost), 2) old and maybe-apocryphal lore about the beams forgetting the moab when the hellmouth opened, and 3) the s7 election where the beams decided not to go for a blessing bc it would shadow dudley, only to get a feedback and end up gunning for it bc it would shadow someone else

basically this dudley irm is like. moab born and raised and very attached to its hometown, human person, kind of a slacker deadbeat type who doesn’t do much, is generally pretty apathetic about being in a bloodsport bc this is just another job

and THEN. it is nearly hit by the downsizing blessing and it becomes aware that it is completely at the whims of fans, and the best way to be safe from the fans is to be good. so it goes to the desert and says make me something good and deadly that they can’t touch, and the hellmouth makes it a siphon - or more accurately, it becomes a buzzard harpie, it is dangerous and dedicated and it will not be at risk again

bonus b-plots are it being very committed to moab documentation efforts and the downsides of becoming Too Good Of A Player
