#unethical experimentations

Damian: Drake.

Tim looks up from his phone: Yeah?

Damian: Yesterday one of my peers used the term 'invasive thoughts.' I am currently researching and must collect additional data on a particular thought.

Tim: Okay? What's that?

Damian: Do you often have 'invasive thoughts' pertaining to world domination, the subjugation of mankind, or the like?

Tim frowns a little, thinking. He hums: Yes, actually. At least once day. But I thought that was normal?

Damian nods: As did I. Richard and Todd claimed it was not, and specifically asked that I do not approach you on this manner. Brown and Thomas advised that your input would be useful.

Tim can imagine what sort of fun Steph and Duke was looking to create from this.

Tim: I have a lot of invasive thoughts, honestly. But I've never studied them all before to figure why I get them. Would you want me to help you with your research?

Damian: You can be my test subject. Come, let us go to the Cave.

i very much understand the fandom urge to make viktor into the frankenstein archetype, since, well, he's a scientist who tampers with the nature of the world to prolong his own life and he's named viktor, but.

consider. jayce as the frankenstein

first of all he already brought a yellow eyed corpse to life that immediately runs away from him and then was haunted by his actions and his creation until he eventually swears to kill him and end everyone's suffering, which. well. cmon

but also!!! he also got expelled from college for being so mentally ill that he tried to illegally invent magic in his flat. which is less of a direct resemblance but it's funnier

welcome all

i'm ghost! 20 years old. this is my horny blog, dms and asks are open.

minors and ageless blogs DNI

gender stuff: i'm transmasc nonbinary. i go by any pronouns (they/he/she/it/xe/ae), but prefer for them to be used interchangably. i'm okay with gendered terms of any sort, but my preference tends to skew masculine.

attraction: i'm pansexual. i tend to stay on the t4t side of tumblr because it feels safe here, but i'm attracted to everyone. i'm aromantic, which means that i'm not interested in a relationship or anything involving romance. i just don't really feel that way about people nor do i understand it.

kinks: i'm a switch. what i'm into changes drastically based on whether i'm domming or subbing. i've noticed that there are a lot of subs on here though so i honestly end up topping most of the time on here lol. when domming, like training pets, overstim, edging, general power dynamics like that. i'm a service top so i'll likely tailor my fantasies to whoever i'm talking to so i can treat them right <33. when subbing though, i'm into more brutal things like cnc, somno, intox, gore, humiliation and objectification. i'm sometimes into breeding, monsterfucking, and piss depending on the context. i also like dehumanisation but only when directed at myself, so for this reason, i may interact but will not post/reblog misgendering/patriarchy content.

limits: scat, feet, incest, white power raceplay, actual bigotry, actual snuff/gore/rape/abuse and absolutely no suggestion that any of this is more than fantasy. i am not comfortable domming in cnc scenarios. i will not send nor post photos of myself.

decoding my tags: (subject to change)

#topposting - a scenario in which i'd like to top

#bottomposting - a scenario in which i'd like to bottom

#switchy needs - a scenario in which i would like to both give and receive

#mine - an original post authored by me

#psspsspss trans pets - a petplay scenario

#send r3pe threats - a cnc scenario

#mmph overstim - an overstimulation scenario

#never gonna not reblog about unethical experimentation - a scenario involving performing unethical experiments on a subject as a scientist or medical researcher

to Inv: I get that situation is tough, and I’m sure you’re just trying your best to keep yourself and Saint safe- but have you considered that possession might be a little morally dubious?

Inv: I’m the morally dubious one!?

What about Mx. Unethical Experimentation over there?

i know i played this game before, but i don't think it really sunk in last time the way shepard's image and myth were so distorted and used after her death. the general public was never even informed that she died--this, at least, sheds some light on why the normandy was left a wreck on a forgotten planet, the remains of the crew who died with her equally forgotten until shepard personally retrieved their tags and placed an (alliance commissioned) performative memorial on the site. (if the alliance did anything about this before shepard came back, they'd have to admit what actually happened to her, and that the best ship in their fleet was taken down by a terrifying unknown enemy). when she was dead, the alliance used her image to drum up recruitment, made her the actual face of military propaganda, but when that didn't bring in enough new people they swapped her real appearance for a composite that tested as more appealing to a broader audience. in death, she was a tool for the alliance, in this new life she's a tool for cerberus. everywhere she looks, she is resurrected to be used by someone else, even down to mindoir putting her face on their colonial seals. she is so astoundingly dehumanized by these institutions she is a part of and the world writ large

Listen. Listen okay. Ty Betteridge is aromantic as fuck. That man is a lot of things and interested in romance is Not One Of Them. However. However. Ty Betteridge is also hopelessly in love, absolutely enamoured with the Mikes Walters, absolutely fascinated with him, in a way that is in no way shape or form good for Mikes everywhere

Alright part 2 of the summary for my Faustian Bargain AU– where Elrond willingly becomes Sauron's prisoner so he'll release Gil-Galad and Celebrimbor.

Elrond's plan is fairly simple. Earendil patrols the Void to ensure Morgoth doesn't escape, Sauron doesn't know about this, therefore, if Elrond times it right, Earendil will realize Sauron is in the Void trying to free Morgoth, get the Valar, and detain him.

There's a few possible hitches with this plan. First, Elrond needs to make sure Sauron doesn't enter the Void until the right time. He also needs to keep the information about Earendil away from Sauron– which is somewhat difficult considering Sauron's habit of picking through other people's thoughts.

Also, this should go without saying, but if Sauron manages to free Morgoth before he can be captured, they're all basically dead anyway.

But there's another problem. See, Sauron was quick to agree that he wouldn't torture Elrond while Elrond was in captivity. Elrond assumed that Sauron agreed because he was desperate. The truth is, Sauron never really wanted to torture Elrond.

He just wanted to run a few tests, what with Elrond being an unprecedented mix of three different species. Specifically, he wanted to know if there was any way to fully bring out Elrond's Maiarin power– and maybe get rid of some of his more human aspects (the need to sleep, susceptibility to disease, all that).

Technically, performing unethical magical experiments on someone isn't torture. Elrond is still not having a great time.

Especially when it looks like some of Sauron's tests might actually be working, and Elrond has to confront the fact that when– or if– he gets out, he might not be the same half-elf he was before.

One of the tests glisten was put through during the week he was held by the Hunter organization is an endurance test. They learned quickly that he is capable of teleportation, but wanted to see what the limits of said ability was. So they proposed a test to the avain where he would need to teleport a certain amount of times in a short amount of time, or go a week in isolation with minimal food. The thing is, the amount demanded was an obviously absurd amount. They had no intentions of following through with the punishment, only to scare him enough so he’d push himself as far as possible. They had given him essentially an impossible task, one they knew he wouldn’t be able to finish. Push himself he did, as he ended up vomiting up blood after pushing his ability and straight up fainted.

This is a test Rodger was actually present for, as well, and helped conduct- though at that point it was more to establish a part in glistens experiments so his request to keep the bird for testing would be accepted and he’d be able to get him out of there. Not that glisten knew that of course

The little blue guy (whos actually Big) is named Siren! And is her little unethical experiment :)

Everyone say hi to Dr. Angelica Scuttles!! Shes the lead researcher and surgeon on project SHARKS and SWAN, held in a sister facility to Sinyala! Its one on Devon's Island, and is to attempt and make humans aquatic and pressure resistant to spy as well as collect recon.

She may have some unethical relationships with her experiments but who doesn't? It's outlast! Feel free to ask any questions and I'd be more than happy to answer <3

GREAT question.

Debu scientists who weren't loved enough by their parents or something looked at the millenia old Zebrapeople discussion of "what do we do about dubiously sapient species" and thought: "Hey, that sounds fun, why don't WE have that?" So, during the collective 80-year Golden Age of Unethical Experiments (and one of many Infamously Bad Times to be a Minority in Bolur history), Debu created the Frabu, the hybrid between the sapient Debu and the nonsapient Frazi, which is like, the Debu equivalent of a chimpanzee.

Bonus fun fact, or rather bonus fucked up fact, Frabu are a partially fertile hybrid, with frazi already being compatible with Debu with needing nothing more than artificial insemination! Very convenient yet deeply awful!

Now, obviously, creating a "humanzee" no matter how it goes is always a base 10 on the fucked up scale from 1-10, HOWEVER I will say how Babu turned out (out of the two) was LESS fucked up.

Babu was a male Frabu sporting a beard AND mustache, along with long (but sparser) raise-able hairs on his back. Attempts were made to have him speak, but he seemed only able to parrot words (as Frazi are capable of mimicry, though without understanding, like a parrot) (Frazi HAVE been reported using words from Debu languages as a code within their troops, fascinatingly enough). The research team gave up a bit too early with testing Babu as if he were a Debu as he appeared to show no progress at all, and began socializing him with other Frazi, but it was then where they saw his hybrid status shine.

Babu didn't make for a very good Debu but a VERY good Frazi, and it was when he was with other Frazi that Debu were actually able to get some insight into their own evolution. Babu's dextrous hands and higher intelligence allowed him to become the cultural icon of his group, with his toolmaking abilities and usage of them making him not only a useful member of the troop but a very good mate when his tool making was used to compliment his vocal range - he was making rudimentary instruments - and was kind of showing how Debu intelligence evolved through sexual selection, and that kind of evolutionary pressure wasn't thought of or known at the time.

Weirdly enough they kind of just... let him live as a Frazi. He was in a zoo and everything, and he actually had kids, and his great great grandkids are still living in the same sanctuary, which sure is... something. Imagine pointing at a chimp and being like "that one's, like, 3% more human than all these other chimps." I will say, he was reportedly very visibly frustrated at many times trying to teach his troop how to do things.

But Babu, despite his contributions to mousianthropology, was still considered a failure - They sought out to make a Frabu, the middle point between nonsapience and sapience, but just got a Pretty Cool Frazi. So, they tried again, this time strictly socializing this new one with Debu, only allowing them to see their mother.

Banee actually was able to learn and fluently speak Debu language unlike Babu - Babu could've, too, he just happened to be so much of a late bloomer that they stopped metaphorically watering him halfway through. However, Babu being able to speak didn't suddenly make her into a Debu. She was deemed "smarter" than Babu, able to finish certain puzzles and tests of higher reasoning once explained the rules, but under the stress of the hopes of being sapient and being expected to improve forever, she eventually hit a ceiling of her abilities and was catatonic about it.

Banee wasn't really socialized with anyone other than her researcher caretakers, and she was kind of perpetually in the painful kid stage of not getting why things were the way they were and never being deemed "mature enough" to either do things or be explained things, no matter how much she tried to improve. For this reason though, she did get along SPLENDIDLY with Debu calves, they were more playful than her comparatively boring researchers and she felt like she was understood by them. But as she became an inept adult by Debu standards, she became more emotionally unstable, prone to fits and even violence, and when she was no longer allowed to be around kids (who in their sane mind would let their child be around her like this) she got even worse.

The researchers noticed her growing restlessness and distress and, seeing how well she bonds and connects with her Frazi mother, tried to introduce Banee to other Frazi. However, unlike Babu, she makes for a bad Debu and an even WORSE Frazi - She had been too socialized by Debu and no matter how much stress not being able to solve tests and living a Debu life gave her, it didn't compare to the 2 weeks of trying to be socialized with Frazi, where Frazi would start trying to bite and beat the crap out of her!

Babu may have been too Frazi by Debu standards but Banee was truly exactly what they wanted - The uncomfortable middle ground between animal and higher beings, too primitive to be accepted into civilization but too sophisticated to live as an animal, and so, she lived and died outside of the embrace of either :(

SPEAKING OF MUSIC MAN,

On a much lighter note, here's the dubiously sapient spitting monkey species! They've got the weird quasi-human intelligence analysis but none of the weird unethical scientific experimentation! They're just born like that, and they're doing fine.

Short faced Zebramen! I thought it'd be funny if the "not(?) sapient" zebramen had flat faces like a human while the "sapient" ones looked more like, yknow, apes.

So, our zebramen evolved from zebraelves when they were isolated on an island, becoming the largest member of the taxonomic family via insular gigantism. They went down from the trees and started walking exclusively on 6's, and started herding other animals on their island, and the learning proper cowboy strats for herding and living off animals became the locus of their evolution, though they did also get pink stripes from sexual selection. Our short-faced guys, though, went further down the path of sexual selection, and are... kind of getting dumber.

They retained base intelligence from zebraelves, but the shortfaced zebraelves didn't really have any reason to keep all of it since they didn't embrace the cowboy life like our "long-faced" zebramen, but rather embraced the hedonism that came on from resource-filled island living. Their faces got flat to better show off the integrity of their stripes, their stripes no longer being stripes but being geometrically pleasing concentric circles. They're still capable of language, as their vocal cords and range actually are superior to those of zebramen, also for the purpose of being Sexy.

Though, intelligence wasn't completely useless! After all, we're so good at STABBING, why lose it? Shortfaced zebraelves, along with nicer stripes, have begun to fight for mates, still retaining their tool use and tool making abilities to make knives for the purpose. They're completely dissolved from the eusociality their ancestors had before, and have become a little less social than zebramen due to the competition, which manifests in them being less emotionally complex or compassionate.

I mentioned zebraelves had a really strong sense of uncanny valley because there were spitting monkey species that look exactly like them. This is the one!

Hive elves look exactly like zebraelves, except they have a higher nose bridge/snout, and smaller eyes, just barely outside the range of zebraelf genetic variance. Even worse? Individually, hive elves are pretty much animals.

A hive elf is wholly incapable of verbal language, deeply undextrous even with similar hands, and are VERY violent towards non-hive elves, or those outside of their colony. However, their dubious sapience status doesn't come from their individuals, but the colony as a whole. Verbal language is less important when you still retain some of the pheromone glands that most spitting monkeys use to, yknow, spit (spitting monkey slime-jet-things and spinnerets are derived from scent glands, like a skunk's spray), and an individual's dextrous hands can achieve much more with the help of others. They even festoon like bees, where they stand in a line as a form of measurement when building houses, not holes or tunnels in the ground - HOUSES. And yet an individual is pretty much just an animal!

Hive elves, as the name suggests, pretty much took eusociality and put it into overdrive. They're a deeply emotionally and socially complex and while they are a deeply scary, mandela-catalogue ass concept in-canon, they are very fascinating.

I've mentioned quagga-elves before, but these are the only spitting monkey outside the genus of zebraelves and zebramen. Very closely related though - if zebrapeople are genus pan (chimps and bonobos) quaggaelves are like a gorilla rather than being, like, another species of chimp.

I feel like these guys are the most "sapient" of these dubious sapients on account of their only setback being that they don't have a complex language but they're getting surprisingly far with making simple noises cued by gestures. With those bigass peepers no wonder these guys are more visual.

Speaking of being visual, they make art! They make art, just like other sophonts, and are the best out of all 3 dubious sapients of making tools, which might've been a result o not having spinnerets (which is interesting bc zebrapeople's evolution towards tool use was aided by their spinnerets) - the genus that zebrapeople are have uniquely refined the little jets for shooting slime into silk by reducing its water content. Quaggaelves retain the "basal" condition of being a "spitting" monkey that shoots slime from there, not a "silking" monkey like whatever those knuckleheads are doing.

They haven't become eusocial either, but they're still a very communal and social species, more like zebramen than the zebraelves.

inv, why was there a need to study your mind control if she could make it?

Inv: She was interested in how it worked. Like how I was able to control two bodies at once completely separate from each other. It’s just like… multitasking, except splitting your consciousness in two. There were other tests too, like if she hurt the person I was possessing, how much of that could I feel in my own body. Or how much could the person remember from their time being possessed, what did it feel like for them… she had a lot of questions.
