> be contessa

> you get superpowers that tell you that god is evil

> you dedicate your whole life to killing god

> you do horrible, unspeakable acts in your efforts to do so

> some scrawny kid shows up at the last second and kills god instead of you

> she doesn't even care

#wormblr #parahumans #contessa #i bet worm is hilarious from her perspective #like you're just going on autopilot and then this menace shows up #commits atrocities that could rival yours #kills god #and when you ask her about it she bemoans about high school drama

on my knees begging you to draw contessa ❗❗❗

Okay, but it’s going to be a style study of Danny Lai Lai (and therefore my rationale for this not being a Doodle)

Something something Doctor Mother being the only person in a crowd of bystanders to try and stop a young girl from doing something dangerous. Even when the girl ignored her DM refused to leave the girl alone and followed, being the only one to help her kill the monster. How she believed the girl when she was told of the situation despite how insane it was. How she helped despite also being told how dangerous it was.

And how later, when another young woman puts herself in harms way to stop another monster, Contessa is given the same opprotunity as Doctor Mother. Another young woman who's power is messed up so that she can't find the path out. But this time Contessa can.

#parahumans #worm #contessa #doctor mother #taylor being there when doctor mother died #never knowing that she was once the kind of person she wanted in a teacher #doctor mother saving the world #and how high school is often seen as the whole world for stressed out kids #contessa and taylor at the end of it all #with taylor wanting to die after being unable to see a way out #but contessa wanted her to live and how she can always see the way out #taylor hebert

Who is your favourite Cauldron character?

It is, has been, and always will be Contessa. Hell, I got so mad at the way things ended for her in Ward that I wrote a whole story about her getting a happy ending.

It's a lot of things really. She's a woman in a suit whose first appearance is taking out a team of mercenaries without batting an eye. She's just incredibly hot and cool and I always appreciate that. Especially since for most of Worm she's just this threat lurking in the background. Like so many minor characters in Worm, she just shines once she gets her interlude.

I think it's interesting the comparison between her and Taylor in the last chapter. Two women who gave up so much to stop Scion, both with completely different views on it. That last conversation between Contessa and Taylor manages to make me cry half the time. Contessa hoping to get something from Taylor, some understanding, some insight into herself. And she sends Taylor away to go live a normal life because similarly she hopes she can be redeemed now that everything is over.

I think what really gets me is this. A nine year old girl saw her entire village mutated and killed. She witnessed the horrible vision of what the entities were planning. She saw the cycle, their power, the Endbringers, everything. And she decided she would give up everything she'd ever known, any future available to her, to make sure that didn't happen.

She's a really compelling character and it's a shame so much of the fandom reduces her to just her powers. The person underneath is vastly more interesting.

So I reread interlude 29 and this quote from Fortuna really stuck out to me. The only way they were able to beat Eden was because she was the present fell away as she looked at the future, and this is pretty nice foreshadowing for how Scion will finally be killed. It isn't because Taylor has overwhelming offensive power, she tries that again and again in more and more creative ways and he shrugs it off, he only dies because she forced him to focus on the past, on what he lost, and made him get lost in the memories and grief of the past so he allowed himself to die. It also parallels Fortuna and Doctor Mother and all of Cauldron, in my opinion. For decades they operated with an unyielding focus on preventing the inevitable future, and I think they lost sight of the present just as much as the entities. Morals, any life outside their goal, everything slipped away from them because the future was so important and all consuming that they couldn't look away from finding solutions for it. Ultimately that's what allowed the Irregulars to raid the Cauldron base too, Contessa was so focused on the fight and their backup plans that she missed what was happening then and there.

And then of course it also parallels Taylor, because everything in Worm parallels Taylor somehow. She spent two years with an iron-set focus on the end of the world two years from then. She left behind her friends, became completely consumed by her goal, and generally did absolutely everything in service of preventing a future. Contessa, Eden, Taylor, all of them see a point in the future and abandon all morals to get there (although Eden doesn't really have any human morals to begin with but tbh this is more about Taylor and Contessa). They focus on a single goal and everything else in the world falls away because all that matters is them reaching that point in the future where they've succeeded. Contessa obviously through Path to Victory, but even outside the scope of her power she chose one goal and did absolutely everything in service of that goal. Taylor doesn't have something that gives her a clear path to her goal, but even still she finds one and everything that isn't part of the path ceases to matter. And then at the end when they reach their goal and the present falls back into focus, they both have to ask if it was worth it. And they know the answer, but even still they set another goal and do it all again.
