DJO - FOOL Explanation under the cut
A continuous and Evolving issue with Buttercup and Marigold's relationship is the more Marigold opened up to Buttercup, the more Buttercup learned of Marigold's habits and manipulative nature, and the more he had that mental divide of The Marigold I know and the Marigold others know. And it became a kind of constant choice for him. If he continued to let Marigold interweave him into their stories, or if he cut the strings and left what was arguably, at that point, his only meaningful connection and therefore reason for living and having things like Dopamine. and Serotonin. and being Happy. The strings are loose around him but hes the one that controls if they Tighten. Y’know. but like, makes eh hand gesture, considering the situation he was in it wasn’t much of a Choice ? Marigold constantly tried to give him that choice, but literally just because of the power imbalance and Buttercup's situation, it was more of a Life or Death.

Asks about characters huh? yeah i can do that. So, what (if any) powers would your ocs have in the worm-verse? any trigger event details? stuff like that!
IM SO GLAD YOU ASKED
Warning 4 those reading this, this may have spoilers. Be warned
I have a worm-Au in the works I’ve been calling Centipede until I figure out a different bug that works and is cool.
Taloft (buttercup) in Worm-verse is A villain turned Vigilante with Sheriff (Blair) and Townsend (Lottie). His power boils down to weaponization. I have an entire google doc and you can tell whose I’ve had to think thru more
Brute 4 Striker 4 Thinker 2
Weaponization (or more accurately, Adaptation) - This manifests as an ability to change items, areas, and himself to a limit. His power is always on, and he has to focus to turn it off.
There's a difference to Held and Touched, which changes how his power affects it.
Items change to fit the situation better, becoming sharper, more sturdy, or more fragile as it calls for whatever would be most effective. This occasionally backfires.
Long-distance weapons like arrows, boomerangs, thrown knives, ect. don't lose their power until they hit something or have reached a distance limit of 70~ ft.
Areas are harder for him to effect quickly because they fall in the 'touched not held' category, it has to be on purpose, and when he does affect them it's usually the single material of the wall that he's touching, typically making it Weaker rather then Stronger. Occasionally if it's a high stress and he uses it right, it sharpens corners and points, or makes textured walls rougher spikes. Unlike with other items, these changes take much longer to fade or never do. Its difficult for him to direct his power here, and its more a passive effect overall.
When casually touching things frequently, it takes much longer but eventually his power slowly changes them to be either stronger or toxic (i,e, Clothes fibers become more tightly woven or scratchy, Watches become small ticking timebombs, shoes become cleats, ect ect).
This is slower and takes longer than if he purposely pushed his power into an item.
If he frequently handles an item multiple times, a long period of time, the time it can be away from him without losing its power extends, and even then it's a gradual change.
He mumbles quite a bit. Wonder who he's talking to. Maybe it's related to him somehow knowing things he really shouldn't.
Anyway figuring out the voices was very fun in this au. So was making the Blood God a normal ass guy
Clementine.. ohh clementine. Heres your fun game of figuring out if her story here is just for centipede or lines up with canon
Her Hero name was Fracture. She was part of a hero group. They also did spy work on the down low.
Thinker 6, Stranger 2
First trigger) Flies under people’s radars and won’t set off any red flags with suspicious behavior. People can develop an immunity to this. Publicly she lied about this and said her power was to always surprise.
Second trigger) Can sense other people’s short-term intentions, mostly negative intentions. She senses these like strong urges and tugging emotions. Either by design or by accidental training, she struggles to notice positive intentions, or always views positive ones in a negative light.
Marigold. I think I forgot to write down Marigolds. I believe theirs was some kind of Rube Goldberg ‘able to predict possible outcomes but in story arc ways’. Ill figure it out
Anyway theyre all so silly <3

Do you ever think too hard about a relationship between two characters. Do you ever think abt the people one left behind. I do. I think about Marigold and Buttercup alot.
(Context:
Marigold; Scrybe of Stories; fucked up outlaw
Buttercup; Not a cow yet; Fucked up outlaw )
Marigold- Frequently bc of their VERY VERY Criminal actions as a well known outlaw, they’d go thru Partners in crime rlly quickly. Like either they’d die or they’d become a card or leave or whatever.
Marigold gets used to that
Shit doesnt last forever. Marigold Never Truly Lets themself be Known to someone else. The only memory of that they have is before they were a scrybe and friends with the beast one, which ended badly, because they became a scrybe and got amnesia.
So thats how they compartmentalize the world. Everything is a character. A puzzle. An arc to the next story. A means to the ends.
The introduction doesnt have to be ethical if the conclusion is what Marigold wants.
They live a fun life they enjoy, but one kind of… empty of connection and understanding. They can understand others deeply. They can even like, guess with Scary accuracy how theyll react in situations. But they know others will never know them in that way.
So enter scene new outlaw Buttercup.
Marigold locks onto this guy. Like. Hes like… 22 i think. Maybe? Hes 20 and Marigold goes ok my new pet project is to make this random guy open up to me, and usually thats something Marigold does in a few beers and a week as a hobby.
But Buttercups so emotionally constapated i dont think even he Knew what to open up abt.
So Marigold ends up becoming More and More invested in this guy, the longer Marigold tries to become friends with him and the longer hes , yknow, alive. And the pet project becomes ‘Quick friendship’ to ‘Become Genuine friends with this man’. None of Marigolds typical methods are working so guess they’ll have to be…gross. Honest.
Like imagine it kinda touch and go? Buttercup’ll do a crime that goes on the radar and Marigold will go oh sick and go over there in hopes of catching him, and then they’ll drag him on some outlaw adventure thats way fucking crazier then whatever he does and gets him into deeper shit later.
Marigold is genuinely the reason he starts opening up. Bc to Marigolds side, hes always kinda…idk. A brick wall. Getting words out of him that arent threats is an Accomplishment. Marigold probably doesnt even realize they’ve actually succeeded in becoming friends until Buttercup steps in to save Marigold from being killed or something.
And Marigolds like Oh. Shit. I accidentally invested way too much into this person because I was trying to get him to crack, but he never Cracked because his trust was something we slowly built up and earned. Fuck. And now its too late for me to bail because ill feel bad.
Afterwards they kinda just Happen Upon eachother every few months, do a crime or large month long scheme of Marigold’s, and then go their seperate nomad ways again, and honestly they were both happy with that. They’re friends but they’d actually strangle eachother if they were full time partners in crime.
And then Buttercup found Blair and Lottie. And became friends. And made connections. And then suddenly he was 1) becoming a cow 2) trying to…avoid doing crime?? Which was basically the same as Not Hanging out with Marigold. Which took Goldie awhile to realize hurt.
Like they just…didn’t talk for a year. And then I think they came upon eachother randomly while Buttercup had wandered away from Blair and Lottie’s campgrounds for a bit for some alone time and they had a Kinda Bitter conversation but. Like. Yknow when one party goes ‘no i dont want to do something stupid’ and then IMMEDIATELY go so something stupid?
So Buttercup ends up back on the. Erm. Criminal radar bc he got a bit fucked up and silly with Marigold bc he went ‘well fuck it. As long as im back b4 blair and lottie r up! Sure’. He basically had a new start bestowed to him in his hands but his bad habits and lifestyle before shanked him.
Look they’re soooo unhealthy for eachother its insane. They’ve fixed eachother in ways they’ll never realize. They’ve made eachother worse in ways that’ll never heal. Understand.
Buttercup eventually does look back, and. Ext time a year or so down the line Marigold finds Buttercup, I think Marigold and Bup have an argument abt .. like. Control?
Anyone that talks to Marigold basically becomes a butterfly effect. They’ll say something that’ll deeply effect someone else which will change something in the future and ect ect.
And Buttercup cracks abt his worries that Marigold idk. Yknow. Is a bit Fucking Manipulative and a bastard. And Marigold is Actually Hurt- because they purposely tried their damndest to NOT do that to Buttercup- or at least they never used their scrybe power to!! He was their test on if they COULD have a genuine relationship without underhanded actions. Marigold doesn’t know how to grapple with the fact it hurts Buttercup doesn’t believe them. You lie enough that every word out of your mouth is hearsay, and even your closest friends will doubt you. Maybe even yourself.
Was Marigold being truthful? Did they truly never say certain things or trap him in scenarios where the outcome favors them ? Can they trust themself when they say they didn’t?
Anhway when Buttercup Blair and Lottie disappeared and ended up in Sockscraft. Marigold didn’t Know that happenedfor awhile. So they just kinda assumed they were purposely avoiding giving any signs where they were just so Marigold wouldn’t find them.
Let me stress THATS THEIR ONLY FRIEND
Like they consider Buttercup to be their Only True Friend- but even then. Marigolds… never opened up to him.
Yeah. Buttercup picked stuff up from jokes and stories, but Marigold… idk. They put up enough walls upon walls that its hard to tell whats the protection and whats the house.
Marigold is completely caught off guard by how buttercup was the one who left them.
Marigolds always the one in control.
Marigold Knows where people go and Knows how to make them do what they want
And yet he still slipped out of their grasp.
This cements in their mind that what they were doing before meeting Buttercup was the smart thing. If you give people opportunities to leave then they’ll take them. Marigold’s emo phase. In reality they’re clearly unhappy and refusing to unrepress it.
Buttercup misses Marigold in the way you miss being a more naive person. A worse person. He misses being able to do awful things without feeling bad- just feeling happy hes with them and not thinking about why.
This gets worse when you dig into deeper feelings. They were definitely fruity in some fashion, but also very aromantic. Aroflux but your romantic feelings only lined up once in a blue moon and sometimes you weren’t even near eachother. And maybe you were just mixing up the joy of friendship and closeness for romance. Who knows!
Theyre destined to never really Be Together. Just like… There.
Like if u ever suggestted Getting Together Officially to the two of them they’d scrunch their nose and go Idk I dont feel romance things . Get out of my house
They’re always kinda.. its like. The comfort of knowing you have someone when you need someone and nothing more. This has always defined their relationship honestly.
These two make me mentally unwell. Very ill. Love loses. I hope I never see them again.
