don't the desolation & web kinda hate each other? does my impulse decision for boris' alignment make sense in multiple ways? *zak voice* what is going on man

Interrupt each other a lot. boris & anthony r gonna be at each other’s throats no matter what <3 good for them !

anyway yes telly hole tma au. web!anthony is the schemer who plots things out, hunt!&eorge just enjoys going ham taking down a bitch, the mini-mole is a creature of the end, yeah yeah. there’s some good stuff in here though. roger, for example? victim of the hunt, sure, but an avatar of the vast too- easily able to infect others with the fear that there’s no human ability to protect oneself from danger, from anyone & anywhere and anytime. spiral!zak, with tall tall legs (that stack people vertically), carving mesmerizing patterns into anything that meets his buzzsaw? ughhhh, marked by too many entities to count, and casually inflicting any kind of fear it pleases onto whomever rubs them the wrong way? this is the good shit. you don’t even need a framing device of (for example) boris trying & failing to be a servant of the eye and ending up more desolation-aligned instead. you can just go apeshit. good au

ranking the tellies based on how much of a gamer(TM) they are
anthony. anthony uses reddit you see. you’d think they’d be the type to do super competitive or high-strategy esports or whatever but instead they just constantly buy miscellaneous rpgs, life sims, beat-em-ups etc. and puts a fuck ton of effort into unlocking everything possible but gives up after like a couple weeks and moves onto something else. it has a massive steam library but very few actually completed.
zak. look at this dude and tell me ey wouldn’t kick ass at esports. fighting games especially (xe main heavy characters most of the time but you’ll always be surprised by how well xe can pull off the lowest tier character). he owns such a decadent gamer setup. the only thing that limits eir gamer status from being top tier is the fact that you can’t make em play anything with character customization because ey’ll sit on the customization screen for 4 hours, say “these options are too limited, i can’t make this character look how i want,“ and then quit & open a doll making program.
ughhhh. do board/card games count? if they did he’d be #1 but seeing as its actual video gaming experience is less great it gets to sit at #3. they’ve been an attentive fan of one specific niche series for its whole 20-odd year lifespan & owns every game, no matter the obscurity (including the japanese-exclusives), but hasn’t actually completed all of them, due to many being. japanese-exclusive. it refuses to emulate or look at fan translations, or do any fandom interaction at all really. they are enjoying themself though. somehow.
&eorge. like not to be mean but she could never get into console/pc gaming. he’s got loads of hours put into phone mmos & can navigate a complex ui like it’s nobody’s business but doesn’t even know what’s in the most recent minecraft update. she constantly cycles through stuff like baking sims, clicker games, & other things that are mainly based around waiting, but always has fruit ninja installed.
roger. don’t get them wrong they’ve picked up on loads of gamer stuff just from living with the other tellies, they probably have the widest range of gaming knowledge purely through osmosis, but can never make themself sit down & play anything more intense than a puzzle game (e. g. picross or sudoku). he’s got like a small handful of puzzle games with close to a hundred hours put into them & is in no rush to complete them. he is the designated telly hole dungeon master though.
conclusion? zak interacted with the esports twitch scene for a period of time, and when xir twitch chat found out about roger it didn’t take long before roggers (pronounced like poggers) became an emote. xe don’t stream any longer but anthony genuinely cannot stop herself from calling him that still

Zak: Why would you lie to them like that?

Roger: You were on fire just a few seconds ago.
Anthony: So? I’ve been on fire before.
Roger: You don’t build up an immunity to being on fire, Anthony!

Roger: *hands Zak some sheet music* So what do you make of this?
Zak: Oh, I could make a hat, or a broach, or a pterodactyl, or-
Roger, taking it back: Alright I’ll ask Ughhhhh instead.

Ughhhhh: Going to go stand in a creek, does anyone need anything.
Roger: Yeah, I need you to find a leaf, set it in the water, and watch solemnly as it floats past you and out of sight.
Ughhhhh: Finally, a reasonable request.

Anthony: What’s something that vampires hate, Ughhhhh?
Ughhhhh: Coffee-flavored ice cream.
Anthony: Well, of course, but I was hoping for something specific to vampires.

Zak, reading the newspaper: Some idiot at the aquarium tried to fight a squid this morning.
Boris, covered in ink: Well, maybe the squid was asking for it.
