So about your MD analysis about the Solver...

So if the Solver is a living entity and all the blood and flesh is going directly to its stomach wouldn't it get full itself eventually? Also, regarding the flesh portals wouldn't it have digested/converted what it's eaten into energy already?

(This is the post for context - for new viewers/readers.) (Minor Episode 7 spoilers)

Well, for a comparison that comes to mind:

If you've ever seen Fullmetal Alchemist, I can compare my idea of the Solver to Gluttony. When Father created him, he attempted to recreate the Gate of Truth in his stomach, but failed. That failure instead created a False Gate in his stomach that left it as an infinite void of nothing. Now, Gluttony lives up to his namesake, as no matter how much he eats, he will never satiate his hunger or become full.

I think the Solver entity has something similar going on, especially considering all the black hole imagery associated with it. Black holes are infinite voids that consume all - not even light or sound can escape its vacuum; it truly is all-consuming. If I had to guess, I'd say the Solver entity is some sort of eldritch being with an endless void of a stomach, much like Gluttony. This is why it wants to consume so much and why it seems almost like it cannot be satisfied, no matter how much it eats.

Going back to FMA for a moment, we also see when Gluttony accidentally swallows Ling, Edward, and Envy, the three wander through the endless void. There is just an endless sea of blood up to their knees, as well as several skeletons/corpses and pieces of buildings/etc. that he's eaten over the 160 years he's been alive. There were even pieces of Xerxes' ruins, which very obviously had been there for a really long time. None of these things would still exist (or be as intact as they were) if he was able to completely digest it; this seems to imply that he can't (or at least not with stuff swallowed via his False Gate ability), which likely contributes to his endless hunger.

Much like that, if the Solver entity has a similarly endless void of a stomach, it also might not be able to actually digest everything that it eats. With the Disassembly Drones consuming oil to keep from overheating, it seems to be more-so acting like coolant for them, rather than them actively digesting/converting it to energy. We don't exactly know WHAT the entity is, so what if the blood and flesh it's consuming is for a similar purpose? That's probably not the case, considering Cyn explicitly said she was hungry and referred to eating things. But is it a case like Gluttony's, where it just can't digest what it eats, contributing to its endless hunger? And if that's the case, that would also still explain the flesh portals being holes into its stomach as well as it basically using wormhole magic to transport flesh places when its powers are invoked by users.

Or is it a case of the method of eating for the entity? As mentioned before, it seemed Gluttony was unable to digest things eaten using his False Gate ability, but he probably can digest stuff that he actually puts in his mouth to eat. Maybe this is a similar case? Maybe the giant NULL void is the entity's actual "mouth" and that's the only way it can somewhat satiate its hunger and digest what it's eaten? Could be at least partially why the Solver is so fixated on consuming the entire planet, rather than just Drones and/or humans specifically.

I kinda rambled a bit there, but I hope that all makes sense. shifeeofs

give me an out of context murder drones spoiler

#anon ask #shinxey's asks #murder drones

I saw your reblog where you said that its your headcanon where not all the drones in the labs contracted the solver. Isn't that literally why the drones were in the labs to begin with though? They either already had the solver or they were given it by the human scientists. Can I ask where you got the idea that it's not so from?

We know that for sure Nori and Yeva in particular had the Solver, but we don't really know about the other drones who were in the labs. Alice doesn't seem to have it, considering she didn't regenerate her wounds and she referred to Uzi as a "witch" when she used the Solver to try to escape. If she also had the Solver, why didn't she regenerate? Regeneration seems involuntary, considering what happened with N in the pilot episode (I doubt he could consciously regenerate himself with no head) and J in Heartbeat (she was DEAD, dead, and the Solver possessing her body seemed to imply it's involuntary on the drones' part), so I don't think it's a case of her just saying "no" to the Solver and not doing it. And why would she call Uzi a witch?

We're given the implication that the drones within the labs were being experimented on, likely having something to do with the Solver. From a scientific standpoint, it wouldn't make a lot of sense to have EVERYONE there have the Solver, if they're researching how it works, spreads, gets contracted, etc.; there also needs to be a control group.

So it's my theory that not all of the drones that were being experimented on had the Solver. They probably kept some around that they left alone for the most part to see if it was contagious like a virus or if there were other ways the Solver could manifest in their bodies. Since we know the Solver is spread through damaged AI, the drones from that group would likely never contract the Solver because they were never injured/damaged. On the other end were drones that got purposefully injured/damaged to see what type of damage could cause the Solver to manifest. I imagine that, despite being harmed and thus, being susceptible to contracting the Solver, some of those drones still did not contract it. We've seen a few drones like Thad and Khan get non-lethally injured in the show and (as far as we know) never contracted the Solver virus, despite their injuries. The injured drones who contracted the Solver (assuming Nori and Yeva were in this group) were further experimented on to see what the Solver was capable of and likely ways to counteract it/shut it down. What makes them special? Why were they the ones that contracted it and others not? Was there a specific injury or level of damage that they sustained that they have in common that the others do not? This might even include drones that were injured/damaged to the point of death, since we know that if they're improperly disposed of, sometimes they can wake back up ("zombie drones", as they're called). Cyn is the only one we know of for sure to be a "zombie drone" and she has the Solver. Might be another point of study. Do all zombie drones contract the Solver? Is the Solver what causes them to wake back up? The injured drones who did not contract the Solver (Alice is likely a part of this group) were also likely further studied, them to figure out why they didn't contract it. Did they have some sort of immunity to the Solver, and if so what? Were their bodies just not compatible with the virus, and if so why?

Think of it like humans getting sick with the flu. There will be some that don't have the flu and some that do. The ones that don't and are never exposed to the ones who do will never get sick with the flu. Of the healthy ones who are exposed to the sick ones, only some of them will also catch the flu and get sick as well. The Solver acts sort of like a virus in this manner, so it's a very similar analogy.

I imagine some of the "healthy" drones were exposed to those that had the Solver to see if/how it would spread. Is it literally like catching a bug from a sick person, or is there more to it? We know that it seems to spread through the robot equivalent of a bloodline, considering Uzi and Doll both got the Solver from their mothers. Did the humans realize that, though? If they did, that was also probably being studied. Unless you count knowing that all Disassembly Drones have the Solver dormant in their systems ("blocked by Admin Cyn" moment), all of the Drones we've seen so far with the Solver have been female. Is this something that passes through the mother? And if we take it as this being fact, why is it that it only manifests in female drones? That'd be another point that would likely get looked into.

I'd say this makes the most logical sense regarding the drones in the labs, imo.

i mean its not really fair that people get a ton of ocs and not let others have the chance

Cry about it to someone who gives a fuck, because I don't.

It's not my fucking problem that other people get to adopts before you do. It's not my problem that I don't want to sell OCs that you want. It's not my problem that you feel cheated by not having as many characters as someone else.

Literally nothing is stopping you from having a bunch of characters yourself. Creators not selling? People buying adopts before you get to? Why not just go and make your own damn characters? There is NOTHING stopping you from making as many of your own as you want. Stop comparing yourself to other people. Stop begging people to give you their shit. Stop complaining and trying to guilt trip people into giving you shit. Nobody owes you a damn thing and you're not entitled to other people's characters. Life's not fair; get used to it. You're not always going to get what you want.

[shinxeysartgallery]

bruv people really be thinking that having a lot of ocs makes you a hoarder? 💀

damn bro I guess comic book companies and shit like that are just hoarders too then!

That one anon apparently did, though with the way it was worded, I'm thinking it was more being used as an excuse to try to guilt me into giving up some OCs rather than them actually thinking I'm being a "hoarder". (It didn't work.)

But yeah, like I said in the last post, I'd define a "character hoarder" as someone who owns a lot of OCs that they don't ever do anything with. But even if you do that, who really cares? They're YOUR characters at the end of the day, so you have the right to do whatever you want with them. Stuff that you purchased/traded for can be iffy, depending on the creator's TOS, but in most cases, they don't seem to care if you actively use them in a story/RP/whatever or just let them collect dust in your funky character box. (Obviously, that's gonna be different in individual situations because some creators may want you to actually use the characters they sell/trade/give you.) In a general sense though, you paid your own money or traded some other type of your own work (art, another character, designs/bases, etc.) so that character now belongs to you, so again, do whatever you want with them (within the creator's TOS).

I've got around 200 characters in total, but I've seen a few people with over a thousand of them from browsing around on places like Toyhouse. If I'm gonna get called a "hoarder" at 200 OCs, you gotta wonder how many DMs/comments/etc those people get calling them "hoarders". But again, a lot of characters =/= hoarding. I saw someone on TH that had something like 2k characters, but they also had like a dozen different original stories they were working on plus a bunch of fandom OCs. They might have a lot of OCs, but there's definitely no question on them being used. lmao

It's kinda funny how people forget that all their favorite properties (literally ANY series you can think of) started off as someone's OCs. Batman was someone's OC. Luke Skywalker was someone's OC. Mario was someone's OC. The argument would be like going to Marvel's CEO and calling them a "character hoarder" because there's a TON of Marvel characters. 💀

#anon ask #shinxey's asks #for the record #I am not selling or trading any of my OCs #just thought I should reiterate that here #in case someone else was thinking about tryina guilt trip me again #they are my babies #and I love them

[shinxeysartgallery]

since you have so many and you end up ignoring most of them you should consider maybe trading or selling some of your ocs being an oc hoarder is generally looked down upon

How about no.

I don't get how wanting to keep the characters that I created and worked on makes me a "hoarder". When I'm thinking of a "hoarder", I'm thinking of people who don't sell/trade OCs, but at the same time, they also do not use any of them for anything and some even go and buy/take adopts from others that they also do not use. I'm not saying that people aren't allowed to do that with their own characters or with characters that they paid their own money/work/etc for, but that's the only time I could see someone having an issue with people who have a lot of OCs. That's the only time I could see the argument of "you have too many; what's the point of having them" have any sort of validity.

But I'm not doing that with any of my OCs. Sure, I might not be trading/selling any of them, but they are being used. They each have different degrees of importance in their respective works, but they all have a part to play. Some are mere NPCs, some are main characters, and others have semi-important roles or have their own arcs. Maybe it seems like they're being ignored/going unused because I haven't been posting any of my writing publicly, but the writing still exists. I've been considering posting some of it on my TH, but I haven't definitively decided yet. (And if I do, a lot of it is honestly prolly gonna be locked to authorized people only.)

I currently only own OCs that I created and designed myself, so I know for a fact that I do not have any characters that were originally yours. And since I don't, you don't really have the right to say what I can or can't do with my OCs, now do you? It would be different if I did have an OC that you sold/traded/gave to me, but it would only apply to that character and not any of the others. I honestly don't care if you still think I'm a "hoarder" or if you're upset that I won't give you my OCs, but that's life; it's full of disappointments. There are plenty of people online in various spaces who sell/trade adopts if you're looking to buy; I'm just not one of those people. I get way too attached to my characters to the point that I'd honestly feel guilty about giving them up. That even goes for the NPC characters that don't get much relevance. Won't be changing my mind on that, either.

oh shit did you actually watch the new Murder Drones ep?

And if you did what was your favorite part

I did. It ended up not being as bad (gore-wise) as I expected and was able to watch the entire thing. :D

Anyway, as for my favorite part, definitely gotta go with the fight scene of N & Nori vs. Possessed Uzi. God, that thing was so dope; honestly gotta say it was the best fight scene of the series so far!

Outside of that fight, three lines are strong contenders, though I'm not sure which one is funniest to me.

1.) Nori: "Why is Cyn after her own murder pet? Are you stupid or something?" N: "Oh, yeah!"

2.) Solver: "Nori? You're dead!" Nori: "You're frickin' grounded!" Solver: "Angry!"

3.) N: *Insinuates that he and Uzi are dating* Nori: "Uzi Doorman! Those things killed your frickin' mother!" *Literally bitch-slaps the possession out of Uzi*

All three of those bits about killed me. (Kinda funny, they're all Nori-related moments.)

Also special shout-out to Mitchell the intern for trying to protect Yeva. That was so cute.

hey op what the fuck do you mean by "not another cyn moment"?

Basically, just before Murder Drones Episode 5 was released, Cyn got teased and a bunch of people in the fandom started making a bunch of theories/headcanons on who exactly she was and what her relationship to the other drones was. One of the more popular theories was that she was romantically involved with N in some manner. ...Only then for Episode 5 to release, where it's revealed that she's N's sister...

So I'm just saying that it's good that Kinger and Queenie isn't another case of the fandom shipping them, only for it to later be revealed that they're actually siblings.
