It's not everyday that you get excited that your friend gave you crabs but here we are! Thanks @doomcheese! I love them 😍 Here's a little drabble I wrote just for you because I think you might like creepy little creatures:

“Eddie, stop bringing me crabs.” “But they want to meet you!” Eddie says, excitedly shoving yet another tiny crab toward Steve’s face in his cupped palms. “Look how happy this little guy is!” The crab rears back, pulling itself down into a defensive position before charging a few little side steps and brandishing a claw like a little battle ax.  “Aawwww,” Eddie coos, “he’s like a tiny little barbarian!” It’s barely bigger than a quarter so Steve’s not cowed. He just sighs and points to the outcropping of rocks with their puddles of teaming tidepools.  Grumbling, Eddie takes the crab back, gently releasing it back where he found it. Steve watches him with a smile. He’d known that Eddie had never seen a beach before but his absolute joy upon discovering the tidepools had been a thing of beauty.  There’s a happy sounding squeal, much like the five year old who’d been here earlier, then Eddie is sneaking slowly around to another of the pools. Steve hears him mutter “roll for stealth.” And then he dips one hand into the pool.  When Eddie sits back up, he’s got a small octopus, no bigger than his palm, clinging to his fingers. The grin he turns toward Steve is all teeth and happiness. Steve wants to kiss him silly.  “Careful, they love shiny—“ the octopus slides off of Eddie’s hand and plops back into the water, probably nestling itself between some rocks or back into a little cave. “—things.” Steve warns too late, eyes focused on Eddie’s now empty middle finger. The skull ring missing. Throwing his head back, Eddie laughs gleefully, “So octopuses are rogues. Noted. I’ll guard my shiny bits next time.” Flashing another grin at Steve, he clamors over to the next pool like a toddler looking for trouble.

Creepy Crawlies III

Our annual post of hair-raising critters is here! The scale of the bugs on the borders is especially troubling...

(We’ll also be posting another creepy entry closer to Halloween, so stay tuned!)

These images are from a donation of hundreds of religious themed engravings and illustrations. We have determined a subcollection of these is from the Kupfer-Bibel: in welcher die Physica sacra, oder beheiligte Naturwissenschafft derer in Heil. Augspurg & Ulm: Gedruckt bey Christian Ulrich Wagner, 1731-1735.

Xystocheir dissecta, a species of flat-backed millipede found only in California. They’re fairly common in forest litter around the Bay Area and show up very well with a black light at night. Like many flat-backed millipedes, they produce hydrogen cyanide as a chemical defense against predators.

Here’s the same individual in white light:

Worm Arc 15 interludes thoughts

Carol interlude:

Holy shit you really were just a fucking TERRIBLE mother!

Like I get it, you had lots of horrible childhood trauma. And you didn't want to adopt Amy and let yourself get bullied into it by your sister. But that doesn't give you an excuse for how you treated both your kids.

Got to see another trigger event!! Fuck yes. Give me more. I want to see more details on those higher dimensional beings.

Fucking hell seeing Marquis's powers in play is pretty crazy. Dangerous boy.

Carol was just going to full blown stab right through that closet door without even looking inside! She almost killed a child! God damn.

“No.  He’s just my daddy.  Reads me bedtime stories, makes me dinner, and tells me jokes.  I love him more than anything else in the world.  You can’t take him away from me.  You can’t!” Fucking ooof that's a line.

No seriously though this can't be the first time there has been a young child of a cape that needed to be adopted because their parent was arrested or killed. Is there really no system in place for this? Cause Amy should not be going with Carol.

Just the way through most of the present sections of the interlude that Carol thinks about her daughter and Amy. Not her daughters. And this was before she knew anything about what Amy had done. Terrible mother.

HOLY SHIT AMY OH MY GOD YOU MADE IT EVEN WORSE! And I thought flesh coffin Victoria was bad! FUCK!

Vic is going to need lots of therapy.

Fucking Carol basically deciding Amy is her daughter now only because she doesn't want to think about Victoria being her daughter. Damn. Bad mother.

And Amy is in the birdcage (Hellfire playing in my head the entire damn time I'm reading this part). I'd be rather terrified to see what she becomes except no one ever gets out of the birdcage so obviously there is no worries. She is never going to be an issues. (I shouldn't need the /s but just to be safe.)

Brian interlude:

Not much to say here, most of my thoughts on this relationship was said in my last post.

I do always love seeing Taylor from the PoV of someone else. Just shows how fucking badass she is. And kinda terrifying.

"She conveyed an eerie kind of confidence that he knew she didn’t have at her core." This is just incorrect bud. When she isn't thinking about how she is portraying herself she conveys the confidence she does have at her core. The stuff she hides from herself.

Alexandria interlude:

DATES! DATA! LORE! AHHHHHHH!!!!

Date of first Endbringer attack!!!!! Strong estimation of the number of capes in August 1986! Knowledge that Cauldron was working in 1986! Their "success" rate at the time that I can compare to now! (Success in quotes cause I don't personally think tentacles is a failure. I want to meet tentacle lady.)

Obviously I'm not a big fan of any of the Cauldron people on the surface. But I think I like Contessa within those boundaries. I technically have no idea what she can do but I'm almost positive she is some type of precog. And I kind of ship her and Alexandria.

Behemoth is fucking scary. Just light people on fire from the inside, shoot lightning. Full energy manipulation. Damn.

Alexandria is the head of the PRT! Damn! (I assume at least.)

I want to know more about the Terminus project!

And Coil is a product of Cauldron! But he doesn't know it (supposedly). Damn. They list him as an alternate to the Protectorate which is very interesting. I'm super curious what Cauldron's goal with the Protectorate was and how Coil can do the same.

Fucking Alexandria just going and grabbing people to be experimented on and it's "ok" cause they were dying. Holy shit! She even manages to make the comparison to her chemo treatment and still does it! Fuck lady. You can justify anything.

Triumph interlude:

See? Triumph is fine! So Skitter didn't do anything wrong.

Triumph is Cauldron created too. Cause he was only good enough at baseball for the minor league but not the majors. God damn fucking privileged ass rich white boy. And he describes it as a traumatic thing! God. At least later he does kinda call out that he got stuff from having a rich dad with connections.

Assault seems to be doing great! Sure was a good idea to let him join the Protectorate just cause he wanted to be a creep to this one girl. Turns out when that girl is gone he doesn't have any motivations to be a "good guy". Great decision Legend.

Robot daughter! Good to see you again! And you built yourself a bio body! Or a head at least. Still, fun!

AAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Defiant.

Definitely isn't Polearm McGee! Nope! Absolutely a different person. That also likes really long pointy sticks.

I am glad Frank Miller's Armsmaster was able to remove the restrictions on robot daughters code. She deserves freedom. Pretty much served his purpose now and she basically just keeps him around to humor him. "Oh yes I need Defiant to help me, even though I built his suit and could just control it directly myself."

Seven Dragon suits in Brockton Bay huh? I'm sure that won't result in anything next arc. What with Dragon specifically on the lookout for Taylor and Taylor planning on going with her dad to the town hall on the election.

Triumph gives in to the weight of not speaking up about Defiant being Armsmaster but then he gets mad at Prism for not speaking up! My dude! You didn't speak up, you can't be mad at her for the same thing!

Fucking LOVED the ending of this interlude, and thus this arc, though. Absolutely perfect. Just with the inherent comparison of Defiant to Mannequin, especially considering Colin called Mannequin a "monster" in his interlude and said "I'm nothing like you!" And then Triumph thinking how he could see the reason for every step Colin made and could see himself justifying each one. And the previous chapter had Taylor dealing with how far she had let herself go. All that and then ending this chapter with Triumph staring at the bodies of Crawler and Mannequin (finally confirmed dead) and the line "Maybe it was to find some clue, some sign he could watch out for, that would let him identify the monsters from the men."

Just fucking. So good. I think it's my favorite quotable arc ending so far. I might like Arc 11's ending more (it's close) but not in quotable way. "All lies" at the end of Arc 14 is a close second, but I like this one more.

#Worm #Worm Web Serial #Parahumans #Cairavende reads Worm #Carol Dallon #Creepy Crawlies #Alexandria #Cauldron #Triumph #Dragon #Frank Miller's Armsmaster #For real though I kinda want to write up an essay on the “identify monsters from the men” bit. There is just so many layers of stuff! #At a minimum it goes all the way back to 3.6 when Tattletale is talking about her “cops vs robbers” analogy. #And she says “And then there's the monsters.” Referencing SH9 and Nilbog (want to know more about) and Skitter brings up the Endbringers. #And the whole constant theme of the heroes not necessarily being the “good guys” and labels mattering more than actions. #And just the idea that there is 3 things. Heroes. Villains. And Monsters. #Monster in many ways being just as made up of a label as hero or villain but it lets people justify their actions better. #Just. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #Worm is good. #Girlfriend thank you tag! Thanks for pestering me (affectionately) to read Worm. #My life (and the life of everyone who likes reading my thoughts on it) is better for it! Love you!!!
