does VAL have the muscle memory of the dead woman whose body she remains in? does she involuntarily react to things that she can't remember the context for? does her body keep the score? and other things that keep me up at night

Nonbinary inclusively win! The politician explicitely describing how he'd like to metaphorically and then literally murder you respects neutral pronouns!

Round 1, Match 19

Percy Jackson and Polyphemus (Percy Jackson) vs Mercer and Gage (The Silt Verses)

(Mercer and Gage art by @thedoublepp)

Propaganda under break

Percy Jackson and Polyphemus

Points to the part in Sea of Monsters where Polyphemus threatens to snitch to Poseidon like he did with Odysseus and Percy’s like good luck buddy I’m dad’s favorite

Mercer and Gage

Mercer and Gage are two fairly young people who have been failed by the systems in place. They’re a pair of orphans who have been working to birth a god and are attempting that through their hunting. They get hired by a politician to kill a few other gods, which results in them spending several months traveling up and down the countryside, razing entire towns and killing worshipers of whatever god they are hunting at the time, going so far that the politician who hired them asks them to chill out a bit because now they’re just killing voters. Over time, Gage grows to hate the hunt and longs to do something more with their life, while Mercer grows angry that their sibling is drawing away from her. She tries to push Gage to keep going, and reluctantly they do. When the politician instructs them to stop hunting the god they’re currently after, Gage tries to tell Mercer to stop, but Mercer refuses because she believes that after they finish hunting this god, their goal will be accomplished. Seeing that Mercer will never stop and Gage will never be free of her, Gage decides to kill her.

Poll Runner's Note: I also really liked this drawing by @caimitos. The detail of Gage having the dog's jaw at the bottom of their hood is really cool!

Who would win: the silt verses pantheon, or smirkes fourteen?

I can see a couple outcomes happening:

(Explanations for the options below the cut!)

1. They do not coexist.

The fears and the tsv gods fight bitterly. The deities frequently attempt to wrest control of their domains from the foreign ones, and most things are in upheaval.

2. They can coexist.

The two pantheons kind of just exist in the same place, with one set just more focused on fear. Cults exist on both sides, and the entities involved create avatars and angels and creatures and saints, after all.

3. They merge in the tsv gods' favor.

The fears come together in forms much similar to the tsv gods than what they were before. For example, the Eye and the Corruption are absorbed into the Waxen Scrivener, or simply become The Ceaseless Watcher and The Crawling Rot, deities of observing for the purpose of obtaining knowledge and of rot, decay, and scavenger insects.

4. They merge in the fears' favor.

The tsv gods become part of the fears, potentially as individual cults like the church of the lightless flame, or fears of their own along the color wheel. For example, The Beast That Stalks In The Long Grass and The Elk Of Birch And Bone become part of the Hunt, and The Cairn Maiden becomes part of the End, whereas the Saint Electric becomes something such as the Spark, possibly representing a fear of electricity or the power it represents.

They could also go in more of a desire direction like the fears are theorized to have done in protocol, such as The Cairn Maiden representing a desire to have comfort and support in death.

You know the silt verses is great because we get to see Hayward trade in his job as a cop to become co-leader of the government-toppling murder-suicide cult and this is a huge sign of positive character development for him. Where else would you get this????

#if you think about it the usual arc for Hayward would probably be the reverse #cult leader who now works with the police (idk if ex cult leaders can join outright) #Hayward baby I’m terrified for you and the whole wound tree cult but proud of you king #the silt verses #tsv #james hayward

[martinswormjar]

it must be said that i simply love to watch a character destroy all their relationships in an attempt to get what they think they want only to achieve their goals and be lonelier and more depressed than ever. and to realize they can never go back and are trapped at the top of the hill playing their part. its the dream you never wake up from!!

Sometimes when l tell people I like horror podcasts they go "oh, same, I love true crime!!" and I just have to nod along, because there is no way to explain to them that we exist in entirely separate worlds and also that my opinion of them just went down by like 15%

[serenity-the-firefly]

really i think one of my favorite character dynamics is “i don’t actually like you but we’ve been through so much together that i’d trust you with my life and know that we will always back each others calls. but i still wouldn’t trust you with my car keys.” like “we aren’t really friends but we’ve been thrust into an intense situation where you are the only other person i know so now we’re besties.” and “if it weren’t for our years of history i would have literally nothing to talk to you about at this work dinner.” Enemies to lovers has NOTHING on general disinterest to begrudging acknowledgment to discovering that this person is now an inextricable part of your life

#I think its both very funny and very compelling #this is kind of about #the silt verses #but tbqh about many things i like #what can i say i enjoy a relationship where both characters implicitly trust each other on big issues but would literally murder each other #over like paint swatches #thoughts

[tsvwords]

Perhaps I was wrong to expect such a dramatic annihilation, Wither Tides and river’s rise - because after all, this is the only way that something as grand as a city or a nation or an empire can ever die.

Starving, slow, and in terrible self-denial.

I look out and all I can think is that I no longer want to wreck this city; I no longer feel dwarfed by its towers and heights, frightened and furious in my own smallness and anonymity amongst the millions here.

I want to lie down in the ruins of Glottage, and comfort it as it bleeds to death.
