#the worse the virus got

[keter-class-anomaly]

Lovebug randy anyone? Maybe if I keep working on this it has some story to it as well?

I’m so down bad, anyway-

Thoughts and prayers for my hands they only barely managed to draw these

priest: i don't, ah, quite know what to say to you. if you are in such terrible danger, why are you taking it all so calmly? constantine: hmh! i dunno, father. i had a bloke beaten to a pulp earlier this evening. that sound calm to you? priest: you did what...? constantine: i must've been off me bleedin' rocker. i've never done anything like it before in me life, y'know?

constantine: but there's header gets his guts blown out, and george is stickin' his head in the noose, and helen gets ... jesus, then friggin' sarah bites me head off — ! everything's coming to bits in me hands and it's so easy to just see red and now, shit, they could've killed the tosser for all i know! and now i'm just like the bastards i've hated all me life! kill him! fire him! close them down! piss all over him! screw you, i can do whatever i want! i so much as blink and you're dead, pal! i'm in charge!! ...

constantine: 'scuse me, father. i'm always like this when i don't get me own way. — hellblazer #81, "rake at the gates of hell pt. 4"

babygirl you are just....so, sooooo offputting. (and grieving, and guilty, and terrified, but yeah: offputting.)

anyway, it's issues like this one that remind me why i kind of hesitate over some of the retcons in the recent spurrier runs, like the one with him now having opened dream's pouch of sand and stolen some before they even met. because like, it's easy enough to look at john constantine now — with 70 years of worst possible choices and unresolved trauma crystallizing underneath his skin to cover up all the soft, hopeful bits where he's used to getting hit — and assign him arbiter of ill intentions, magus of wasted potential, saint of shit choices, but man . . . he was new to this, once. he was still new to this 80 issues in.

80 issues in, and he's not used to losing friends yet; he even has time enough between catastrophes to grieve each individual one. still has enough left to live for at this stage to necessitate running and hiding, instead of bodily throwing himself at the problem like he learns to later, or sitting apathetically by to do nothing except smoke and watch the world fall apart when he finally gives up. fuck, he still apologizes.

and you're telling me this guy, this soppy wet cat motherfucker hiding from the devil in a church basement, so guilty over not knowing what happened to the guy that he paid people (paid chas, so chas could pay people) to attack that the bottle he's holding in this scene isn't even his second or third........this guy's past, more innocent self lied right to the face of DREAM OF THE ENDLESS and got away with it?

hm. i just don't know about all that.

#also this is where my headcanons tag is from <3 #( ooc. ) OUT OF CIGS. #( visage. ) AND I'M A BASTARD. #( character study. ) A WALKING PLAGUE OF A MAN. #sometimes i just think that. people really like to reduce constantine down to one or two things #and somehow. after 250 issues of putting his life on the line bc he could never really make himself look away from people suffering #the soft sullen guilty person who wants so fucking desperately to be a better man? is never one of those two things #idk man. i think about this issue all the time #if i put these pages side-by-side with his grief in hellblazer 2? with his grief in hellblazer 213? 215? during the empathy virus arc? #it becomes CRYSTAL clear that the guy we know at the end of hellblazer isn't someone the guy who sat vigil for gary lester would recognize #in fact i think he's someone that hellblazer 81 constantine would fucking Hate #ANYway yeah. i don't think he lied to dream about the pouch. i don't think he ever got it open. i don't think that's canon for me #i want him to fucking Earn his asshole nature. the hard way. by making All The Wrong Choices that it took to get him there #he paved that road with good intentions himself but. he also used to remember the ones he started with #idk if i'm making sense but i have had this panel open on my laptop for Two Months now #bc i can never stop thinking about how fucking crushed he is here to realize that he might be exactly as bad a man as sarah said he was #and how little it will surprise him later on to learn that he is Easily capable of So Much Fuckin Worse #and with that your honor the defense rests. our evidence? just. just Look at this fuckin guy #scopophobia / #scopophobia #eye contact / #eye contact tw

I think it's funny how the Metal Virus was eventually taken out by basically doing the whole "Let's take *place or thing here*, and push it somewhere else." Patrick Star idea; Just chuck the whole damn thing into the sun.

Yeah, that smacked of Flynn writing himself into a corner.

When Sonic and Amy find zombified Rough and Tumble, they discover that they're indestructible, because Amy's hammer turns them into mush that then reforms itself. This means that the virus changed them to a molecular level: they are no longer organic, but made of metallic goop. Either you chemically reverse the process, or those people are functionally dead.

And yet, Super Silver can simply... yank the virus out of their DNA. And yeet it.

I get that Super Silver's telekinesis is stronger than regular Silver's, but this may be too much, dontcha think? He even healed Rough and Tumble still stuck in a hole underground - what kind of reach do his powers have??? There's being Super, and then there's being Jesus!

This is because Flynn was too concerned with raising the stakes (to his own admission when he explained his reasoning for Shadow in #19), and as usual, when a writer focuses on raising the stakes to the point where they reach their limit, the resolution to said stakes is rarely satisfying.

Then again...

#fans don't look #i re-read 29 to get that screenshot #yep it spends quite a few pages to scream 'THEY'RE ALL DOOMED THEY'RE ALL DYING AND SONIC IS GONNA DIE AAAAAAA' #so the fact that the arc is resolved by simply yeeting the virus away is even funnier #man to think of how i felt cheated at this point #19 to 23 was my villain origin arc and then it kept getting worse #so many months spent on this arc and for what #i even got a middle finger with sonic being happy that he freed metal in 12 fuck you

you know with all the buzz going around it, i know re9 won't be as shitty as the reddit community makes it sound but also i hope in a way it won't be an utter disappointment ( read, a game only about chris & leon ) like... show us the core four, what are they up to these days and how deeper they are in the rabbit hole of all the pawn conspiracies. show us beloved "side characters" that we've been asking about and don't make it lazy by saying they all joined the bsaa - give it some variety, tell us how the outbreaks they were involved in shaped their vision of the world, how they're helping the mains to give it an end. and for the love of god address the ending of rev2 💀

#do you ever think about the fact that 3 out of 4 mains could lowkey be considered superhuman via virus infection #not to mention natalia and sherry and moira and basically all these kids who got infected and showed sorts of regenerative powers in a way?? #like.. there are literally successful “experiments” walking among us and nobody says anything #just to fins out the bsaa is perhaps making supersoldiers?? idk guys i think it's suspicious #they got a fuckton of samples from all the aforementioned characters it seems a bit dangerous to me but idk #i already know the plot will disappoint me but since reddit thinks claire will die it can't get any worse #claire can't die btw she conquered her fear on sejm and t-p adapted to her lmao good luck killing her off

Tehe *turns the thing people hate about Monty into sweet, sweet angst*

(Read the tags for context)

#so theres this pretty popular theory with sb where Monty decommissioned Bonnie just so he could take his place in the band #right? well I got smth even better for u #Basically Vanny hacks into Bonnie's system and forces Bonnie to go after Monty in order to turn him into Vanny's servant also #Monty wouldn't survive without killing Bonnie. He HAD to do it for self defense #to end his friends suffering and to keep the virus from spreading (ofc that doesn't work but he doesn't know that). Monty feels real REAL #bad for doing this to his friend and feels even WORSE when he realizes he'll have to replace Bonnie. Sure he's always wanted to be in the #main band but he wanted to be a DRUMMER #anyway that’s all #fnaf security breach #montgomery gator #fnaf #five night's at freddy's #fnaf sb #glamrock bonnie #bonnie #monty #ALSO I wanna imagine that before the Bonnie Accident Monty was like a really cool and chill guy but he developed his anger problems after #as like a trauma response or getting violent with inanimate objects as a coping mechanism #security breach

#sonic #talks #cuteeeeee i love my boy #rereading after learnig much more about sonic is really interesting #now i can easily tell the difference between the writers and i can see where flynns experience (for better or worse) makes his current #writing hit a lot better #its really interesting #going straight from metal virus to chao races really emphasizes stanleys much more modern type sonic who feels a little more shallow (early #on!! her writing gets a lot better for sonic later but ill comment on that when i get to it on my reread) #hes a lot softer and sillier w her first arc #vs flynns sonic in metal overlord feels pretty solidly like games sonic to me but a little deeper/more room to explore complexity #just fascinating from an analysis perspective #sorry this is in the tags of a barely related post but my words arent together enough to put all this in an actual post people will see hdkd #but to be fair to stanley!! this is also lower stakes stuff!! so either she got the hang of it later OR her casual sonic just has a hugely #different vibe to her serious sonic

I need to delete tiktok again because I’m too prone to looking at stuff that makes me nervous wahhh

#it’s worse this time cause I’m already prone to irl scary slideshow stuff but #there’s a big trend w fan bases and by fanbases I mean 99% mlp creating infection/virus aus #with scary pony edits and descriptions and stuff #I think it’s creative so I always end up reading them but even after so long I’m just so so prone to getting nervous at the idea #of zombie like situations and apocalypses ☹️☹️☹️ #I saw a proseka one too where saki got mauled by a rogue luka the sprite really scared me 😭 😭 #I’ll delete soon again… I swear

[rovermcfly]

really loving all the tutorials for how to pirate shit but not super happy about how many of them don't even mention the very real danger of viruses and getting caught and into legal trouble and how to avoid that

like just clicking a download link on any fucking streaming site out there is almost guaranteed to fuck you up in one way or another. please include safety measures in your tutorials.

#take it from someone who had to pay a hefty fee for torrenting sth once #and that was before the law changed here and the laws got stricter and the penalties worse #like I don't wanna see thousands of posts next month of people getting sued for this shit #or losing everything on all their harddrived bc one file came with a virus (also happened to me) #please be fucking careful

oh btw i finally caught covid and feel like this rn

#my art #agent 3 #it very suddenly hit me at work yesterday and i nearly fainted #fucking. was in so much muscle pain and got so nauseous i vomited :/ #todays been better but my cough got worse. sigh #that last drawing i posted was actually drawn before i got covid lmao #oh yeah and i had only JUST recovered from my last virus/flu thing #fucking dying rn

briefly confided in my mother (mistake i never learn from) about how i am very sad that my ability to have a social life in the world is tied entirely to my sibling, who will be leaving here soon, and how i do not have any other way to get out of the house and how i do not feel i have anything besides work and despite everything that came after, including an apology for saying it, the first thing she said was “well i don’t have anything else either” which is exactly what prevented me from saying anything earlier because i knew that and i know that she is very good at going “it is what it is” about the most miserable of conditions and so would never admit to being unhappy about anything even though there is so much to be unhappy about including having to raise me to begin with, and that she also gets annoyed when others complain or are unhappy about anything because SHE does it and so why can’t everyone do it. and. well. i am pretty nervous about what this means for my life (nonexistent) going forward

#it is a cold thing to say but i feel like i have like. a month to befriend my sibling's friends that will be staying here #enough to want to spend time with me or else i am never going to get out of this fucking household #i dont have many coworkers my age and even fewer that i talk to because i dont like talking to people very much #which is also a massive problem because i want to but i am weird and shy and not always a fan of people and again very strange #but i can barely functionally navigate the world on my own to an upsetting degree. if i dont have someone with me i cant do it. #i am kind of freaked out about all of this. i have today off and work late tomorrow and i wanted to maybe go out tonight #but i. can't. because no one here wants to and im fucking scared to death of calling (and paying for) an uber #and then being out in the world on my own. so i just get to stay here. #not even mentioning i am fairly certain there is a new wave of That Virus going around so what would even happen if i did #which is also fuckinggggg miserable i am the ONLY PERSON who wears a mask to work besides the deli department #drops head in hands im never going to befriend anyone im never going to go anywhere again im never going to touch anyone #i do not want to say this because i am a very repressed person but i am never going to hook up with anyone which is disappointing frankly #i can BARELY text anyone and i am often in too much pain to even walk to the one thing i can do alone which is the library #like. oh my god! my life has no meaning. i trudge along thinking 'maybe it will get better' #and its not all been bad i DO have kind of an almost social life when my sibling takes me to do things with their friends #i got to play dee n dee yesterday and it was cool even though i panicked a few times under attention #ive been able to do things. i have some coworkers i like or at least talk to. im very competent and people like that though they know #nothing else about me besides that im good at my job. #but having those moments of like honest to god Hope makes it feel infinitely worse the rest of the time when im just #staring at the clouds and the clock and thinking oh my god it was all for this and it was not worth it #whatever. classic post of buzz. this doesnt matter and i dont know what the point in talking about it is but i dont have anything else #a job im good at and hate and a blog where i complain and a death wish and thats all. an unbearable early 20s myopia #this is stupid im going to do something else since ive upset myself. AGAIN

[theonlyadawong]

one of these days im going to sit down and have a hard think abt 9/11 and how that fits in w resident evil

#speakerphone! #i chip away at this thought occasionally. #i have no brain power now. head empty #but also 👁👁 the this affects everyone obvs esp the main characters of the series #like terrasave is what? a humanitarian aid org that specializes in helping ppl affected by bioterrorism yeah? #and thats nice but humanitarian groups can be exploitative (not that i think claire specifically would b apart of that but being realistic) #and then theres leon. which. lol. lmao if you will. i dont even know what to say but blackmail does not exempt him from the shit the gov #put him up to. ill tell you that much. #bsaa is a sanctioned u.n. paramilitary and i always that when talking abt them bc. thats important. and though theyre not dogs like leon #its still important to mention bc the u.s. is ofc part of the u.n. so. also lol #also they were in penamstan w a virus BEFORE 9/11 which means they were absolutely doing way worse AFTER #and then there's ada. who really isnt that affected by this #i suppose travel is a bitch but shes got connections. i suppose shedbe more on the united states ass because theyre doing what theyre doing #and omg as i was typing this i realized presidents daughter being kidnapped must have been quite the media event in terms of speculation #as it gives news outlets a way to peddle propaganda (until they find oug it was spain) #anyways. #i guess i did have the brain power to think abt this. #maybe i will think abt it again 🤔

Anyone else feel like they completely lost their ability to write consistently post covid or? 💀

#ooc: sharks are smooth in all directions #and not only write just doing Anything that requires focus and mental energy #it is so incredibly difficult and it hadn't always been like this #also my neuropathy got so much worse post covid like girl stopppp #you're a respiratory virus mind your own fuckin business 😩😩😩

[rescuefield-arch1]

thinking about her ( claire post DI being relatively okay except for her silly goofy iris that is now half blue half red since she really was so close to turn )

#this concept really gives me life bc capflop always acts as if once the heroes are cured they're back to normal #but already after sejm claire didn't go back to normal ( only got worse 💀 ) and after being infected with that weird ass t-virus strain #she can only get worse gjhj even after getting the ~vaccine~ she was still wheezing she legit had to sit down once everything was over 🤧 #i do think eventually her lungs will get better again but her eye is fucked up forever since t-p was about to kick in due to the stress #she hates it immensely and makes it even harder to look at herself in the mirror but she can wear cool eyepatches on missions #which is also valid since she's a sniper ( and i hope next time she hops in a control room we see her shoot from the window lmao ) #𝙏𝙃𝙄𝙉𝙂𝙎 𝙇𝙊𝙎𝙏 𝙄𝙉 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙁𝙄𝙍𝙀 ⎯ dev

I am clinging to the edge of the fnaf fandom by the tips of my nails and it's dragging me in slowly but surely like... Well like an animatronic that wants your corpse. Anyway have a belle security breach au idea.

The virtual reality of U is top of the line vr tech, with millions if not billions of users, each with a unique personally generated avatar. It hosts hundreds of worlds and global events, able to create spectacles impossible in real life.

Naturally, fazbear entertainment would have a huge presence on there, it being so much easier to create, maintain and animate false bodies in the virtual world. They create a mega pizza plex, dressed to the nines in neon and strobes and holograms, and without having to worry about the dangers of npcs turning evil they fill it up with new characters and robotic staff to serve. Even with the many... issues they face with their real world locations, the fazbear name skyrockets, bringing in fame and fortune... And obsessive followers.

One of which is a young woman called Vanessa, who lingers around the pizzaria a little too long for her own safety.

And, years later, a young homeless boy with dreams of performing and government given U earpieces for online education. Or maybe he just stole them.

There's a cool mechanic where visitors can win a ticket to go in freddys body for a time! No one's too sure whether it's an actual avatar with an actual paid performer or just a really good script, but either way glamrock freddy is cool with it. No one really wants to ask his physical counterpart to do the same though, those rumors are NASTY.

Gregory is one of the lucky few, but his scheduled time is when it's getting dark. He steals some pizza out the back of some restaurant for dinner, and enters the virtual world. It's great! It's even better than he imagined! He gets to meet his idol!

But human bodies don't follow into the virtual world.

And the fazbear pizzeria has some worrying rumours.

He's curled up in freddys avatar when something clamps around his neck and

Well.

#Me: isn't it messed up that the souls of murdered children are forced to perform for crowds in the bodies of the things that killed them #Wouldn't it be worse if the body was a world famous performer and not just a small time gimmicky kids restaurant #Security breach location is off the wall pricey there's no way they're not making millions now #Afton proves that souls can get somehow possessed in code? Not sure how but what if we went further with that #It didn't come up but Vanny found a 'sleeping' kid round the back of the pizzaria and dragged him in just in case he'd seen anything #Where he was completely helpless and got eaten #In this au she's moonlighting as a virtual security guard to keep hackers out of the megaplex #Also vanny. She's a cult member which made her vulnerable to Aftons manipulation and now she's a right hand woman chugging the evil juice #Of not entirely willing corruption #Vanny is an anon avatar - she would have to log off to switch accounts #Anyway now poor Gregory is trapped outside reality with no idea what happened to his body and possessing his idol #I really like the idea of both freddys being around at the same time. I think the two possessed kids would get on but I'm not sure how #Security breach being virtual would be such a cool idea though. Not to mention it'd explain how it looks like that. Meta! #Also the idea of a possessed animatronic having to work alongside actual ai animatronics and being treated the same would be... #A not good experience for your self worth and mental health #On the one hand so much angst potential #On the other there is significant potential for crack if Gregory just decides they're people and goes found family #And he gets to perform! On a global stage! With his idols! And gets glamorous living quarters and merch and expensive accessories and - #And there is a computer virus going around corrupting his best friends. He's seen the moon attendant staring through the window at night. #I think the final arc of this au would be freddy/Gregory himself getting sort of hunted by increasingly suspicious ai in the bodies of his #Having to talk and act his way out of situations and avoid vanny - possibly his murderer #While hunting down information on how he died and what's happening outside virtual reality #And possessing souls are ANGRY. He is ANGRY. He is hurting to the point of destruction just like his irl counterpart he is willing to burn #Whoops this is long #Might make it separate posts #long post #fnaf #fnaf gregory #fnaf security breach #security breach
