__________________________________________________________

What the hell was I thinking?

You shut off the water and stood there for a long minute, letting the water drip from your body. Toji was still very much a stranger—one that probably was not the most upstanding citizen, if you were honest—and you’d gone and given him all of your personal information and told him to come find you. You might as well have given him your credit card and your social security number while you were at it.

Grumbling to yourself, you stepped out of the shower and wrapped one of your fluffy towels around you, twisting your hair in its own towel to dry. You pulled on shorts and a tank top, not bothering with underwear or a bra. If you thought about it, it was probably more likely that he’d never show, and you’d be stuck thinking about him while you rubbed one out in the dark of your room, which was quickly becoming somewhat of a regular activity. Pitiful, really.

You moved to your couch, reclining against the cushion and thinking about what you could pull together for a late night snack. Almost on cue, your phone buzzed on the seat next to you. You didn’t recognize the number, but you figured you were pretty certain of who it was. All doubt left your body and you picked up the phone, pressing the green button. “Old man,” you said into the receiver, grinning at the deep sigh you heard on the other end of the line.

“I was calling to ask you what I should pick up for food, brat.”

Your grin stretched wider as you listened to him rattle off your options, surprised and a little unnerved at how normal the conversation was, like he was just a friend coming over to hang out and you hadn’t thought about him rearranging your insides every night for a week.

“Oh wait, I really like that Indian place on the corner,” you stated absentmindedly, and you listened to him read the menu to you while you picked at a fray in the sofa. You were half listening, really—your mind was still stuck on attempting to figure Toji out. You felt uncomfortable with the unknowns--with the novelty of him as a person-- but you decided you’d lean into it tonight. And maybe you’d just hope that he wasn’t a serial murderer after all.

45 minutes later he was at your kitchen table, pulling out his own meal after he’d given yours to you. He wore the same black T-shirt and jeans he always did, but you didn’t mind—why fix what’s not broken? He looked good. You followed every movement of his body closely—feeling bold that he couldn’t see you do it.

You sat on the countertop, watching him rake his eyes over you as you shoveled a forkful of curry into your mouth. "You come here just to bring me food and watch me eat it?" You asked him coyly, feeling a little too good at the way it made him roll his eyes, grinning softly.

"You know I didn't," he told you earnestly. You sat the food carton down next to you, arms coming to rest on the wood behind you as you sat back, kicking your legs out. You didn't miss the way he studied the motion.

"You gonna tell me why you did, then?

He tilted his head at that, an unreadable look on his face. He regarded you for another beat before he stood up from the chair, eyes on you as he stalked forward in no apparent rush, before he settled himself between your thighs, hands coming up to rest on the swell of your hips. His face was an inch away from yours and your eyes settled on the way his tongue poked out to swipe at his lips. Arousal pooled in your gut and you watched his mouth pull up at the corners. He brought a hand up to grasp your jaw, tilting your head up to meet his eyes.

"Ask me," he breathed, and his tone was nothing but authoritative, "to kiss you."

You sucked in a breath as you heard your own voice in your head from hours earlier, your disappointment evident at his refusal to kiss you at work. Now, though, the feeling was replaced entirely by the primal need that crawled its way up and out of your throat. It was all you could do not to whine.

"Please," you all but gasped out, "please kiss me."

He was on you in a second, mouth hot and heavy as it slotted over yours. Your hands flew to his hair and tethered themselves, pulling him closer, finding you couldn't have him close enough. His hands grabbed tightly to your ass, the bruising grip making you moan and allowing him the opportunity to slip his tongue into your mouth. You tasted him and you burned-- the curry and a hint of tobacco making your head spin. You had no idea how long he kissed you for--it could've been two minutes or two days, and either way it still would not have been enough to satisfy the debilitating need you had no idea you possessed until now. He pulled away from you gently and you whimpered at the loss. He spoke, and a thrill shot up your spine upon realization that his voice was gruff, laced with his own need.

"Want you," he ground out, mouth drifting to the spot below your ear, "want to taste you."

You let out a breath and your hands dropped to his shoulders, wholly in agreement and trying to get him to where you needed him the most. He let out a small tsk and pulled away from you, eyes meeting yours.

"No," he told you, and the tone that went straight to your core was back, "Tell me what you want."

You huffed out a breath, feeling surprised at how shy you felt. You knew exactly what you wanted him to do--had thought about it at length-- but to verbalize it, to make it real, presented itself as a hurdle you were having a hard time getting yourself over. It felt odd--you'd never been the type of person to clam up or shy away from asking for what you needed, but to be with him, to have his form towering over you, threatening to swallow you whole-- it was different. Toji seemed to sense your nerves and brought his fingers up to stroke your jaw.

"C'mon, pretty girl," he cooed, "I know you can do it."

You flushed at the way his praise wrapped itself around your mind and squeezed. The need to be good, to do exactly what he'd asked of you, trumped all else.

"Want you to--" you sucked in a breath, trying to meet his gaze, trying to be brave, "Your mouth--please, want it on me."

He smiled at your frustration as you let the breath go, with you now wholly annoyed that he'd reduced you to a stuttering mess, and he let his fingers drift from your jaw and down your body.

"Oh, do you? Where do you want my mouth, sweet girl?" he asked, and it was taunting, but you couldn't be embarrassed while he trailed his fingers agonizingly slow down your body. Every nerve ending was on fire, and you nearly jumped off the counter when they brushed the damp spot that had formed through your shorts. His smile turned into a shit-eating grin.

"Oh," he breathed, and it was sickeningly sweet, "do you want it here? You want to feel my tongue in your pussy, princess?"

There was no stopping the moan that his words and his fingers brushing against your core pulled from you. You nodded your head once, and then again, almost frantic, broken pleas falling from your lips, which he swallowed greedily with his own.

"Aw," he teased, lips drifting down your jaw and across your chest, "that's all you had to say--that wasn't so hard, was it?"

He kissed down your shoulder and across your collarbone, pausing there to suck at the skin harshly before soothing it with a gentle swipe of his tongue. You barely registered the fingers at the hem of your tank top before he was pulling away. "You gonna let me take this off, sweetheart?"

You nodded quickly, reaching for the offending fabric yourself to make it quicker. Anything, you thought, I'll give you everything. It was only after hearing his soft chuckle that you realized you must have said it out loud. "Easy," he told you, hands raising to stop yours, "be a good girl and let me do it."

You dropped your hands at his words, letting him slide the fabric up your body, covering the newly exposed skin in hot, heavy kisses that burned you with every press of his lips. You let out a whine when his mouth met the swell of your chest. He pulled the top up over your head and tossed it behind him.

"So pretty," he whispered, and it was nearly a groan. You cried out as he gave a nipple a particularly harsh suck, tipping your head back as he passed over it with his tongue. He brought a hand up to give it's pair some attention, and you let out a squeal and bucked your hips as he pinched it roughly between his forefinger and thumb. He pulled back to meet your half-lidded gaze. "Oh, does a little pain feel good, princess?"

You bit your lip, unable to stop the shiver at the way his fingers clamped down on your nipple. "Y-yes," you whispered, barely audible, but you'd guessed he heard it by the way his grin grew two sizes on his face. Holding your gaze, you felt his fingers leave your nipple for a moment, only to damn near arch off the counter as you felt his hand come down to swat the sensitive nub. He grabbed your jaw again, searching your face for any sign of discomfort. "More," you gasped, and you felt the groan vibrate his chest as he pulled you in for a bruising kiss, keeping you there to cry into his mouth as you felt the sting of his hand across your nipple again. He pulled back again, hitting you a little harder this time, and the throb between your legs was almost painful. "Please," you cried, grabbing for him wherever you could reach, "I need--please, it hurts--"

He pulled back to regard you, knowing as well as you did that it wasn't your chest that hurt. He brought a hand down to settle above your pubic bone and you spread your legs eagerly, whimpering at the light circles he pressed into your cloth-covered cunt.

"Aw, have I kept you waiting too long, sweetheart? Do you need it that bad?"

You pouted slightly and nodded your head, and he smirked at the way all your inhibitions had clearly left you. He backed away from you, turning to walk back to the table and ignoring your protests. He picked up the chair he'd been sitting on earlier and brought it to the counter, the metal clanging off the floor as he set it down. He sat down on it backwards and he brought both hands to slide under you, grabbing tightly to your ass and pulling you forward. "Gonna be here for a while, aren't I?" he asked, pulling one of your legs to rest over his shoulder. You leaned back on your elbows, eyes meeting his from his spot between your legs. You watched him inhale deeply, face just inches from where you needed him more than you likely needed anything in your life, and you shivered when he groaned. "Smells so good," he ground out, leaning forward to press a light kiss over your shorts. Your head dropped back and you let out a shaky moan. He brought up a finger to drag gently over the damp spot that had grown, humming at the way your hips bucked up to chase the pressure, however slight it might have been.

He hooked the finger through the legs of your shorts and dragged them down, letting them drop to the floor. You hadn't even registered that you were completely bare in front of him until his breath hit your heat. "Jesus Christ," he muttered, and you weren't sure he was actually talking to you, "look how wet you are."

You whined, and it turned into a cry almost immediately as you felt his tongue lick a long, heavy swipe through your folds. You felt him groan, and the vibrations of it reverberated throughout your entire body. "Tastes so fuckin' good," his tongue came up to prod at your clit, teasing it with little circles and gentle sucks. Your heel pressed into his shoulder, bunching up the fabric of his shirt in an attempt to pull him closer to you. It affected you in a way you didn't quite understand, the way that he was still completely clothed and had you naked, open and vulnerable underneath him, giving him anything and everything he'd take. You watched his shoulders strain under that black T-shirt and the heat that spread through your body was unbearable.

"Thought about this," you choked out, unable to feel embarrassed about what you were about to tell him, nor about desperately wanting him to know, "touched my--fuck--myself."

The admission made him pause to look up at you, and you regretted ever saying anything that would make him stop. You watched his expression twist for a second, and then he was on his feet, hauling you off the counter and all but running to your bed. He deposited you on the mattress roughly and was right back down between your legs, dragging his tongue over your heat with a renewed fervor. You reached down to thread your fingers through his hair, pulling roughly and crying out as his lips clamped down around your clit, sucking you into his mouth.

"Wait," you gasped, pushing at his head, "Toji, wait, I'm gonna cum if you don't stop--"

"Then why would I stop?" he chuckled, tongue swiping over your clit.

"I want to--" you tried to form words, "Want to cum on your cock, please--"

He stilled, eyes meeting yours again. They were hungry, now, darkened at your words. He pushed himself up to you, one arm caging in your head as his lips hovered over yours. "I am going to make you cum," he whispered, and it felt more threatening than you expected, "until you cry," and he paused, free hand coming down to cup your heat, the weight of his palm making you whimper as his fingers pressed into you, "and you are going to take it. Every one I give you."

Your eyes went wide and you nodded dumbly as you watched him study your face. His lips turned up in one corner and he leaned down, mouth brushing from the corner of yours and drifting to the spot below your ear. You gasped as he gave the skin a light nip.

He sat up on his knees, hands coming down to settle where your hips met your thighs. He worked your legs open, coming to sit between them. He pulled both your legs over his own jean-clad thighs, content to have you writhing and leaking, spread wide like his own personal plaything, on his lap. The shame you felt burned away to arousal. He was the only one who could reduce you to this, and you both knew it.

You nearly jumped off his lap when you felt his hand come down hard on your pussy. You swallowed a broken cry, and your eyes squeezed shut as your mouth fell open in a pant. He clicked his tongue and pulled his hand away.

"Look at me, pretty girl," he ordered, and you shivered, "need you to count for me."

Your eyes fluttered open and you met his gaze, and he smiled at you warmly. "Good girl. I want to hear you count out loud."

His hand came down again, harder this time and right over your clit. You fought the way your eyes tried to roll back in your head as your whole body shook. "O-one," you choked out, and it was so broken.

He hit you again, and you didn't think you'd ever been so close to falling apart in your life. Every slap of his fingers had you clamping down hard around nothing. Every once in a while he'd forgo the harsh slap you'd been expecting in favor of drawing light circles over your clit with his thumb, and your body bowed off the bed like you'd been possessed. By the time you'd counted to ten, your entire body hummed with need, and it forced tears from your eyes.

"Such a sweet, sweet girl," Toji cooed, pushing your body up the bed so that he could reposition himself, settling between your legs to taste you again. "So good for me. Gonna make this pretty pussy cum."

It didn't take more than two swipes of his tongue across your clit to make your entire world implode. Your vision went black and it felt as if you'd been dragged underwater--the rush of some current flooding your ears as your body flailed in his grasp. It took a while for you to resurface, only to find that he had no intention of stopping. You whimpered at the overstimulation, half-heartedly trying to shove at his shoulders to get away.

"What's wrong, princess?" he said, and the obvious mock in his tone made you feel so pathetic that you nearly moaned, "Thought you wanted to cum on my cock? We need to get you ready for that-- no way you'll be able to take me into this tight little pussy without it."

You felt his finger circle your fluttering entrance and you let out a string of expletives as you felt him push into you, the thickness of it already stretching you. His mouth latched onto your clit and you knew that you were close to falling apart again. He pushed another finger in, and your whole body shook at the onslaught. "So tight," he groaned against your clit, fingers pressing up gently as he fucked into you slowly, "Can't believe how fuckin' good you feel wrapped around me, sweet girl."

He added a third finger, and the burn of the stretch and his tongue lapping at your clit had your whole body seizing up, crying out as you came again. His fingers fucked you through it, and you vaguely registered the curses he let out every time you fluttered around them. You opened your mouth and all that came out were incoherent babbles and broken pleas for more. He chuckled as he pulled himself from you, soiled hand coming up to palm himself over his jeans. He undid the buckle of his belt, and he smirked at the way you visibly swallowed. Every single thing he did was horrifically sinful-- you couldn't get enough.

"You're gonna take all of me like the good little girl you are, huh?"

You nodded, whimpering as you reached for him. He shushed you, lightly batting away your hands as he stripped himself of his jeans. "Be patient, sweetheart. I'll give you everything."

He pulled his black briefs down and his cock was freed, heavy as it smacked against his stomach. He stroked it absentmindedly and you watched, damn near salivating over the motion. His free hand came down next to your head, body caging yours in as his hips settled over you. Your legs came up to wrap around him and he hissed at the feeling of his length brushing over your slick folds. He thrust his hips up into yours gently, dragging the underside of his cock over your clit. He kissed the broken moan from your mouth.

"Gonna give you everything," he said again against your mouth, and all you could feel was pride at the way his composure slipped, all because of you.

The tip of him slid into you, and you both groaned at the feeling. He was plenty big and the stretch was enough to have you arching up against him, panting and scratching your nails over the expanse of his back. You made quick work of pulling his shirt over his head, and he let you. Your palms settled flat on his chest, and you reveled in the feeling of the scar tissue beneath them. You wished you had the wherewithal to devote more attention to his body, but it was all you could do to keep your eyes open. You choked out a moan as he pushed further into you, clearly exercising restraint. "Gotta let me in, sweetheart," he ground out, and his face was pushed into the crook of your neck as a reprieve from the exertion of holding back. You had no control over the noises that left you as he pushed deeper into you still, feeling shocked that there was still more where that came from. Eventually he bottomed out inside of you, pressing kisses to your neck between huffed breaths as he fought the urge to completely tear you apart.

He extended his arms to push himself off of you, looking down to where your bodies were joined. He moved slightly, an experimental push of his hips, that would've had him grinning at the cry you let out if hadn't felt so good.

"Look at you," he admired the way his cock disappeared inside of you, the way you squeezed him tighter than he'd ever felt in his life, "Taking me so well. I knew you could do it. Knew it from the second I saw you."

You drank in his praise like it sustained you, and you writhed underneath him as he pushed into your body, his cock hitting every single spot you needed him to. You choked on the pleasure-- you let it swim up your throat and smother you.

"S'too bad you have to pretend," he told you, hands coming down to your hips to keep yours still, "no one's ever made you feel like this, huh?"

You shook your head, wholly unable to do anything but tell him the truth. It wasn't an attempt to stroke his ego, and you both knew that--he was just honest, and he was right.

“You poor thing,” he cooed, fucking into you slowly, and you swore you felt every detail of his cock as it dragged against your insides, burning you sweetly, “s’probably tough having to pretend for all those old perverts, mm? They all want you so bad—” he punctuated the last word with a particularly devastating thrust of his hips into yours—“but they wouldn’t know the first thing to do with ya, huh, sweetheart? S’only fair you take their money, it's what they owe you—hard not to hate them, right?”

His tone was mocking and it brought tears to your eyes—you hated his pity, however overstated it was in this moment, and you hated that he was right. “H-hate them,” you whimpered, and it was pathetic—you let the tears roll down your face and his pace never faltered. He smiled, leaning down to catch a tear with his tongue.

“I know, sweetheart,” he murmured in your ear, and it only served to make you clamp down around his cock. His arms caged your head in and his presence alone commanded that you meet his gaze—you were on fire for it, wanted to be seen by him, but every thrust of his hips pulled your eyelids down further.

“Such a good girl,” his lips brushed against your jaw, “s’all you needed, huh? You just wanted wanted someone to give it to you good?”

You hiccupped a sob and shook your head violently, because it hit you like an accusation, and it stung—there was no somebody, there was only him. He reached into your body and took a chunk of you out to inspect it, and you hoped with everything you had that he would find it worthy. This moment that he’d suspended you in would brand its way into your brain, and there was no way you could ever come out unscathed. You shook your head again, letting out an absolutely broken “just y-you,” and tried to bury your face in his shoulder, but the hand he had tangled in your hair pulled you back.

“You’re going to look at me,” he said, and you knew better to think it was anything but a warning, “when I make you cum.”

“Please,” you gasped out, hands coming over both shoulders and digging your nails into his skin, “need it, Toji—need it so bad.” He grinned, and sped up the movement of his hips. You keened in his grasp.

“What do you need, princess? I know you’re more articulate than that.”

Your head spun with the feeling of his cock and the impact of his words. It was so much—too much, and not enough—you just needed a little help to push you over that rapidly approaching edge of oblivion.

“Please,” you begged again, frantic to put some semblance of a sentence together, because you needed it—you needed him, and you needed to be good for him—“p-please touch my—oh god—my clit, please—”

“Oh, sweet girl,” he hummed against your throat, “this what you need?”

Your back arched like you’d been shocked when you felt the pad of his thumb come down to swipe circles above where he fucked into you with a rhythm that made you stutter. You opened your mouth and you were sure, distantly, that nothing coherent came out. His thumb bullied your sore clit and it set everything inside you on fire. “You wanna be a good girl and cum for me?”

You nodded, half delirious and feeling the tears fall down your cheeks. “Please—oh, please, I want to be good, I—I’ll do it, please, I s-swear I will—”

Toji groaned in your ear at your words and his hips snapped into yours so sharply that you saw stars. “Go ahead, pretty girl,” he gasped out, already feeling the way you squeezed him, “let it go for me.”

And you did. Your body went rigid, abdomen clenching almost painfully as the pleasure ricocheted inside you like a pin ball. You squeezed your eyes shut and let out a cry that was probably closer to animalistic than anything that had ever come out of you. He fucked you through it—his thumb never stopping its assault on your clit, his thrusts had slowed some but were still intentionally and devastatingly timed. You clung to him like a lifeline, and he was content to anchor you there—whispering praise in your ear while his cock moved inside you lazily, allowing your cries to turn to broken whimpers.

He waited until you’d began to squirm underneath him to go still inside you. You wrapped your limbs together around him—in this world you’d created, it didn’t matter who he was or who you were, so long as he stayed stuffed inside you, keeping you full and placated for as long as you could stand it. You barely had any of your senses back, but you could feel him and know he was there, and the knowledge grounded you. You barely felt the hand he had woven tight in your hair untangle itself gently, electing to massage the back of your head where he'd pulled it taut.

"You did so well," Toji whispered to you, pressing warm kisses to the sharp curve of your jaw, the tear-streaked point of your cheekbone, your temple, "So perfect, princess--just knew you would be."

You sniffed at his praise, keeping your eyes shut as he peppered kisses over the lids. Still pressed to the hilt inside you, you couldn't shake the notion that he'd just ruined every other person for you, but you couldn't bring yourself to care. There was no reality that existed in which you would be able to find an experience that even remotely rivaled this one. Never had you given yourself over so wholly--and never had you been so willing to do it--and it shattered you. Now, Toji picked up all your pieces and wound you back together. You wondered if you'd be fully intact by the end of it, or if he'd keep some of the pieces for himself. It didn't matter, not really-- he'd changed you, down to your core. He'd touched your soul. There wasn't anything you had that wasn't his, not anymore. There was a part of you, on some far-off, distant island in your mind, that was absolutely disgusted at the submission. The larger part of you just felt fulfilled in a way that you had never.

You felt him slip out of you, still rock hard and throbbing, and you whimpered at the loss. You grabbed for him weakly, a pathetic attempt to pull him back to you, and he took both of your hands in his, chuckling softly and pressing kisses to your palms. He sat up to his knees, one arm supporting him as he rubbed the muscles of your legs with his free hand, coaxing the feeling back into them. You wanted to laugh--it felt incredibly insignificant and borderline inappropriate to be attached to a body after an experience like that.

"What are you doing?" you slurred, concern knitting your brows together, "You didn't finish, I can--let me help--"

He cut you off with a soft kiss to your lips--one that was so startlingly gentle it seemed out of place, and it tugged at your heart-- and pulled back to meet your eyes. They were still a little unfocused, and it made him smile.

"You won't be doing anything," he murmured, leaning down to press kisses to whatever skin he could find, "but letting me take care of you, sweet girl."

It almost unnerved you, this side of him. It wasn't completely unexpected--he was, after all, completely unlike anyone who'd ever desired you before--but it still jarred you. You'd had one night stands in the past, as few and far between as they were, but they all ended the same-- a deep rooted feeling of shame that bordered on disgust, and the relief at feeling the other person slip into sleep, providing you the opportunity to slip out the door unnoticed to drag yourself home and try to wash off the evidence of the same poor decision you continued to make. But there would be none of that today.

"Why would you do that?"

He paused at that, looking at you incredulously. He searched your face, looking for a clue of what you could mean and didn't find it, finally opening his mouth to ask you what you were talking about. You had to dig your fingers into your slipping consciousness and drag it up, trying to piece together a sentence that would adequately communicate your confusion to him.

"Why would you stop to take care of me?"

You hated the way it sounded coming from your mouth--insecure and smaller than all of your bravado had ever allowed you to be-- but it was the truth, and he'd stripped away every last layer of apprehension you had at letting him see it. His eyes widened for a fraction of a second, and then he huffed out a surprised laugh, but it was genuine.

"What kinda neanderthal do you take me for?" he asked you, and he chuckled again at the blush that spread across your cheeks, eyes drifting from his to your lap. You didn't know how to answer that.

He reached up to grab your jaw gently between his fingers, pulling you up to meet his gaze again. His smile was warm, and his thumb brushed circles into the skin underneath it.

"M'only giving you what you deserve, princess. Or, what I can, as a human being. S'far as I'm concerned, you should have far more than I’m able to give you, but I'm grateful that you allow me to try."

You blinked, unable to make sense of the words that now tumbled in your brain. You watched him bring a thumb up to brush the skin beneath your eye, and you vaguely registered the wetness on the pad of it as an indication that you were crying. You couldn't respond, couldn't speak if you wanted to-- you could only watch as he lay down next to you, and let him pull you into his chest. His arms encircled you, and you had the fleeting thought that this could be what genuine intimacy between lovers felt like. It warmed in your chest, and you tried not to let it burn you. He reached down to grab a leg and hike it over his hip, so that your bodies were entirely flush. You shivered as you felt his cock slot between your thighs, but there was no move from either of you to do anything about it—content to suspend yourselves in what felt like too vulnerable of a moment to be sharing. He brought a hand to the back of your head, and tipped his down to kiss your forehead.

"Wouldn't be the first time you left me with a hard-on, kid," he muttered affectionately, grin pressing to your hairline, “you’ll just have show me how good you can be next time.”

I read all of worm (2011-2013) in four days, my thoughts below:

Worm is a web serial which takes the form of thirty-one arcs, each of which has around six to ten chapters. It tells the story of Taylor Hebert, who has the ability to control insects with her mind, after being shoved in a locker for hours and triggering her abilities. Taylor enters the complex world of parahumans, the collective term for people with powers in Earth Bet, the world of Worm. In this world, capes are either heroes, given administrative protection by the Protectorate, the governing (non-powered) body which oversees parahumans, rogues, who operate outside the law in a vigilante capacity but who are considered still basically good, and villains, who oppose the Protectorate and all it stands for. Navigating this political minefield, Taylor must choose sides, despite her suspicion of authority.

Worm takes place in a universe where heroes see themselves as unilaterally good and villains as unilaterally evil. as a result, heroes are allowed to get away with egregious actions because they are heroes. this is explored in depth, similar to Watchman by Alan Moore. Like Watchman, Worm is characterized by repeated escalation, which makes for some compelling fight scenes, as Taylor (the main character) deliberates and strategizes every move as she counters the powers of others. Deeply misanthropic and nihilistic, the story starts in a dark place and gets darker as it continues.

It's been characterized as a story with an okay beginning, a better middle, and a meat-grinder ending. I'd agree with that characterization, but would also keep in mind that Worm is a first-draft web serial- the writer, Wildbow, updated the serial multiple times a week, and escalation forms a good reason why Worm is somewhat addictive to read- it draws you in and makes you care about the characters.

As I've said in other posts, one of the most compelling reasons to read Worm is its depictions of trauma and mental illness as a direct cause of the powers which exist in this universe. Most parahumans assume their powers after a triggering event which endows them with superhuman abilities, thus most of the characters are traumatized teenagers, especially the Undersiders, a group of teenage villains.

It's been compared to Homestuck with some merit, owing to the fact that it has a large cast of mostly teenagers (who age as the story continues), there are multiple world-ending scenarios, there are high stakes and consistent escalation of those stakes. I would say that Worm takes itself much more seriously than Homestuck does.

Essentially, the writer takes the concept of "there are superheroes in this world" and works backwards to posit the question, "if there is a universe where superheroes exist, what world would create such a condition?" It's a sweeping, epic story, which escalates repeatedly as its central narrative strategy. He asks questions about the humanity of AI, questions about objective morality, and plays with narrative voice, popping up in the heads of tertiary characters you meet once and then affect the story on the sidelines. Finally, Worm is told from the perspective of Taylor, who changes throughout the story, and not always for the better. As such, it's a great example of a story with an unreliable narrator, so if that's your bag, you'll be likely to enjoy Worm.

Obligatory disclaimers:

The writer has some issues depicting other races in a non-stereotyped manner. there are some pretty egregious instances of google-translated Japanese, Punjabi, and Chinese, and the depictions of the Indian superheroes are less than good- there are some lines like "he shouted in hindu or punjabi or another indian language."

There are canonically gay relationships, and while the main character Taylor is canonically straight, a large portion of the fandom reads her interactions with Tattletale and Rachel as less than straight, but there are also frankly homophobic depictions of gay people- there's one character who's potentially genderqueer, but it isn't handled well.

Worm includes central themes of child abuse and body horror. Since Taylor's powers involve insects, there's a lot of insects burrowing into and eating various parts of people's bodies, etc, so if that isn't for you, again, be warned. Sexual violence also crops up.

If you can get past these things, Worm is an addictively compelling scifi reimagining of superheroes. As someone who's fallen out of love with the genre, Worm made me find this genre compelling once again.

I haven't read Ward or Twig yet, but Wildbow has created at least two web serials which exist in the same universe as Worm, serving as respectively, a sequel and a prequel.

VPN for streaming

A VPN, short for Virtual Private Network, is a powerful tool that provides online privacy and security by creating a secure connection to another network over the internet. While VPNs are commonly used to protect sensitive data and encrypt online activities, they also offer a range of benefits for streaming content online.

One of the main advantages of using a VPN for streaming is the ability to bypass geographical restrictions. Many streaming services, such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video, have region-specific content due to licensing agreements. By connecting to a VPN server in a different country, users can access a wider range of movies and TV shows that may not be available in their location.

Moreover, a VPN can help improve streaming speeds and reduce buffering. Internet service providers (ISPs) sometimes throttle bandwidth for streaming services, especially during peak hours. By using a VPN, users can circumvent ISP restrictions and enjoy smooth, uninterrupted streaming experiences.

In addition, VPNs provide an extra layer of security when streaming content online. They encrypt internet traffic, making it difficult for hackers or third parties to intercept personal information or data. This is particularly important when accessing public Wi-Fi networks, which are often targeted by cybercriminals.

Overall, using a VPN for streaming allows users to unlock a world of entertainment, enhance streaming performance, and ensure online privacy and security. Whether you're a movie buff, a sports enthusiast, or a binge-watcher, incorporating a VPN into your streaming routine can elevate your viewing experience to a whole new level.

Access Indian TV in USA

Title: How to Access Indian TV in the USA: A Comprehensive Guide

Are you an Indian expatriate living in the USA and missing your favorite Indian TV shows, movies, and news channels? Or perhaps you're an American fascinated by the rich cultural content Indian television has to offer? Either way, accessing Indian TV in the USA is easier than you might think.

Streaming Services: One of the most convenient ways to access Indian TV in the USA is through streaming services. Platforms like Hotstar, SonyLIV, Zee5, and YuppTV offer a wide range of Indian content, including popular TV shows, movies, sports events, and news channels. These services are accessible through subscription plans and often offer free trials for new users.

Satellite Providers: Some satellite TV providers in the USA offer packages that include Indian channels. Providers like Dish Network and DIRECTV have add-on packages specifically tailored to cater to the Indian diaspora, offering access to a variety of Indian channels.

Internet Protocol Television (IPTV): IPTV services deliver television content over the internet, allowing users to stream channels directly to their devices. Many IPTV providers offer packages that include Indian channels, giving users the flexibility to watch their favorite shows on their TVs, computers, or mobile devices.

Over-the-Top (OTT) Devices: OTT devices like Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and Apple TV provide access to a wide range of streaming services, including those offering Indian content. By simply connecting these devices to your TV and downloading the relevant apps, you can enjoy Indian TV shows and movies with ease.

VPN Services: If certain Indian streaming services are geo-blocked in the USA, you can use a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to bypass these restrictions. By connecting to a VPN server located in India, you can access Indian content as if you were physically present in the country.

With these options at your disposal, you can easily stay connected to Indian culture and entertainment while living in the USA. Whether you prefer the convenience of streaming services or the traditional TV experience, there's a solution that suits your preferences and budget.

Geo-blocking restrictions

Geo-blocking restrictions are limitations put in place to control access to online content based on the user's geographic location. This practice is commonly used by businesses and content providers to comply with licensing agreements, protect copyright, or enforce regional pricing strategies. While geo-blocking can help companies regulate the distribution of their products and services, it can also lead to frustration and inconvenience for users.

One of the most common examples of geo-blocking restrictions is in the digital streaming industry. Content providers such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video often restrict access to certain shows and movies based on the user's location. This means that users in different countries may have varying levels of access to the same content library, leading to disparities in available entertainment options.

Additionally, geo-blocking restrictions can impact online shopping experiences. E-commerce websites may limit product availability or adjust pricing based on the user's location. This can result in customers being unable to purchase certain items or being subject to higher prices compared to users in other regions.

To bypass geo-blocking restrictions, users often utilize virtual private networks (VPNs) or proxy servers to mask their IP addresses and appear as though they are accessing the internet from a different location. While these tools can help users circumvent geo-blocking, it is important to note that bypassing such restrictions may violate terms of service agreements and copyright laws.

Overall, geo-blocking restrictions play a significant role in shaping the online experiences of users around the world. As technology continues to advance, the debate surrounding the ethical implications and effectiveness of geo-blocking measures is likely to persist.
