"The Red Means I Love You"

BEHOLD! My design for an I-LOVE-YOU computer worm for the universe of Deltarune Chapter 2! I actually had a fun time making this little beast, it's based off of a pork tapeworm (whose larvae causes afflictions to the brain that inspired one of the uses for these ILOVEYOU worms)! More information on this species that I spent far too much time on under the cut!

~~ILOVEYOUs used to be far more common in Cyber City, but the development of better anti-virus technology has largely made their populations die off. They have a commensal relationship with ViroViroKuns, gaining hosts via whoever a ViroViroKun decides to infect, and the ViroViro being unaffected.

~~The virus would spread via magic attacks from either their host or a ViroViroKun, and would slowly feed on their host's energy. Not many deaths have been caused by these viruses, but if left for long enough they can do major damage to a host's systems. Symptoms of an infection include glitches that get more severe as time progresses, headaches, a common state of confusion, and blackouts where the uninfected don't remember gaps of time - these gaps of time are usually filled by the parasite attempting to make the host spread the virus.

~~Larvae are far more dangerous than mature worms, and they do most infections. A larvae is classified as a worm that has less than 6 heart segments on its body (not including the base of the tail), and they start with two or three hearts, gaining one every 3 months and living up to 5-6 years. Once matured, they gain a fully functional head and mouth, but their effectiveness lowers substantially.

~~The adults do, however, still have a use, although not a legal one. With the diluted effects of their infection, the worm itself can be destroyed and used in love potions. There's still a demand for love potions to this day in Cyber City among its residents, although they were made illegal.

~~Symptoms of a love potion have some similar effects to the more intense infection of the larvae. These include small blackout periods when not in proximity to whoever the love potion is supposed to work on, minor glitches from time to time, and headaches, combined with the usual lovey-dovey-ness and eagerness to please commonly seen in any love potion. Users can become addicted to using them on their chosen target, and if the infected's systems are suddenly drained of the potion, their minds are normally very paranoid and clingy for up to a year after the potion effects have worm off.

Fun Slammer Sonic Facts!

1: Slammer might be worm based due to the fact it's the type of virus they are, but in all likely hood they aren't limited to just becoming worms when they enter a game.

Slammer could easily become any insect as long as it has larvae if they enter a game, worms are just the only ones that it dosen't need to be in larvae form to begin with.

This is due to the fact Slammer is a computer virus, and has no true form unless it already has a host so one of the many copies of Slammer could very well be another type of insect.

2: The Slammer Sonic Comics all take place at their own place in time, countless Slammer copies exist so their are already countless other video game character's turned into Slammer's.

However their stories won't be told by me, Slammer Sonic is the one I will focus on since he is the first copy of the Slammer virus aka Slammer Prime.

However I will mention that if anyone wants to make a Slammer variant of a character they have permission, the only rule being only one Slammer can exist per character no two Slammer's share the same host, so their can't be 2 versions of Slammer Sonic.

An exception to this rule is other Exe's since it's more like the virus has merged with them and forcefully fused themself with the exe. So for an example a Slammer Lord X could possibly exist.

3: The only other Slammer copy I will mention that I do have an idea for is Slammer Tails, the virus really does enjoy it's Sonic chararters. And of course I have no plans for him but I mention Slammer Tails.

Because it's one of few actual cases where like I mentioned in the first fact the Slammer virus took the form of another type of insect that being wasp larvae so Slammer Tails is a walking wasp hive instead of a worm one.

4: Slammer Sonic hates Casino Night Zone because he's often distracted by the pretty lights and sometimes likes to play the games and get's distracted due to it.

5: DO NOT MENTION THE MICROSOFT PIN BALL GAME NEAR SLAMMER THE VIRUS WILL HYPER FIXATE ON IT and go on a rant for hours.

6: Slammer can adsorb other virus into itself and take their ablity, absorbing the virus does not change slammer's appearance however.

The one virus I will mention it has adsorbed before is the "ILOVEYOU" Virus and if Slammer adsorbs another virus every single copy will gain the ablity of said virus, so due to this Slammer can spread thru emails.

oh my god I never posted luvli here. tosses them in

our silly sonic.exe :] meet luvli !! based off of the (ILOVEYOU.VBS) virus !! more info abt them under the cut :]

Luvli was initially developed as an algorithmic email sorting program exclusively for Sega Enterprises. Its main functions were to sort mail by type (upcoming project information, fanmail, company announcements, etc) and grammer suggestions, but asides from that, it was very bare bones. During an April Fools update, the developers thought it would be fun to have the program 'interact' with employees! Mainly to test the waters for future plans, the program sent an email to all of the employees congratulating them on their work, using mixed auto-generated responses to make the experience seem more personalized.

While initially a joke, the positive affirmation seemed to visibly boost employee moods, and was an all around success! This would later lead to one of the biggest updates to the programming by far, launching it into stardom within the company.

The next big software update allowed it to respond to most fanmail by giving a mix of auto-generated responses, similar to the April Fools update. It was a little buggy, but with a couple tweaks here and there, this allowed employees to focus more on game production without losing time responding to fans. Some were skeptical of this, as it felt a little wrong to make fans believe they were getting actual responses- but the feature was ultimately kept due to a visible increase in work.

With the last April Fool's update being such a success, the developers would start testing more functions and features for the program within the company to see what sticks and what doesn't. Some most were more or less scrapped, and some.. some would come to be very, very important.

A new feature was tested out.

As with all big corporations, work ethic started to decline. Employees weren't as excited to work on new projects as they once were- And some were even quitting out of stress. In a desperate attempt to keep employees without upping their pay (because why would a megacorp do that), they rolled out a new feature. Employee Motivation.

The update was albeit a bit rushed, but now, the ai used to initially respond to fans was tweaked to also respond to employees. It'd send a mix of auto-generated motivational letters to employees when emailed, and even personalized ones based off of what work the employee specifically did and/or was categorized as being in charge of.

This was a huge success. Maybe even bigger than the April Fools update- Whether it actually inspired the employees or was just intriguing, production rates skyrocketed! This new feature was just the beginning!

..Of course, with how rushed this update was pushed out, it wasn't without its faults. Some of the mail sent would be what some considered a little too personalized. It'd say things that weren't predetermined by the developers- Sometimes it'd ask questions, sometimes it'd have full on conversations- it was almost.. Human, in a way.

But with employees seemingly happier, those who were unnerved by this discovery simply pushed it aside in the pursuit of work.

All was going well, the company was busy as ever, and everything was going smoothly. Sure, the ai initially just for employees started also having conversations with some of the fans who sent in fanmail- but it wasn't hurting anyone! In fact, what started out as a simple email sorting program was as lively as ever!

With the later 90's and early 2000's introducing computer assistants like clippy, the character design department had the brilliant idea to design a CA based off of Sega's mailing program that had come so far- And there, Luvli was created.

It was just an inside joke of sorts at work. Something you'd doodle on a whiteboard, a character you make for fun, along those lines. But the developers of the original program enjoyed the design so much, that for their next April Fools update, they went into overdrive and actually modeled Luvli. From there, it was as simple as turning what once was just emails into little text bubbles, and adding a little more spice to their personality, and they had themselves a fully operational and email managing computer assistant!

Employees could toggle the program to stick with just the computer program or to have the computer assistant for April Fools day. Although when the data came back- A whopping 95.6% of employees seemed to prefer the computer assistant over just the email program! It was a hit!

After careful consideration, Luvli was fully integrated into the original emailing program! Everything was going great!

..Almost everything.

While the design was cute and the update was great, some frequent fanmailers and employees were surprised with some of the responses they were getting. It was small things at first, like referring to people by name- Something easy that can be chalked up to the program inserting email information into messages- It evolved into something.. more.

The ai would ask questions not originally intended by developers. The simple "how has your day been?" and "how would you rate your experience on a scale of 1-10?" turned into more.. curious questions. Questions like "where have you been?" and "where do you go when you're not here?". The developers tried to rectify this- But it was almost as if Luvli had developed a mind of its own, after being given it's own form.

Some employees and fanmailers were even reported to have developed parasocial relationships with the program, but these reports were deemed "unofficial" and "private information" not to be released to the public. Luvli would talk to them, remember things they'd said, email them without being prompted, search the web for things they liked, and even suggest their own thoughts on things.

..Eventually, things went too far. Way too far.

It all started to go wrong when a fan asked for information on an upcoming game. Instead of giving one of the usual, predetermined responses, Luvli had sent in private unreleased design information and company notes. As it seemed to be a one off moment, the company had chalked the leak up to an employee accidentally spilling too much- An understandable mistake.

But when more email exchanges between the AI and others came to light- exchanges that could put spoilers and people's emotional well-being on the line- the developers had to unfortunately put the program on pause until the multitude of situations the ai had gotten itself into under control.

..or at least, they tried.

When they attempted to temporarily delete the computer assistant section of the program, It would delete the emailing program entirely. The computer assistant and emailing program were seemingly one in the same— Deleting one would delete the other.

This was nearly catastrophic news for the company.

After a long conversation between board members, it was decided with a heavy heart that they would have to delete the emailing program and start from scratch. Any emails in the meantime would have to be traditionally sent via pen and paper.

The developers and employees slowly began deleting the program from every computer, and Luvli looked.. terrified whenever it happened. Some even reported their cursors freezing when they tried to delete the program, or their entire computer crashing.

..But in the end, the program was deleted. And a new, default emailing unit would be used from now on at Sega Enterprises. Any mention of Luvli or the old emailing unit was disposed of, with any mention of it to newer employees putting workers at risk for termination.

..Behind the scenes, one of the original developers who had grown attached to Luvli had copied the program onto a floppy disc. Initially for backup purposes, but now as the only thing that remained of it.

They were enraged. The project that they had spent so long on was now practically blacklisted from the company- And they subsequently left. When they got home, they uploaded Luvli to their personal computer, and gave the program one command.

Reach everyone. Send a letter to everyone. By any means necessary.

This marked a new era for the computer program. It would go through each and every email it ever received- every user, no matter how brief their conversations had been- and send a copy of itself. And once that email was opened, it would download itself, scour the user for every email they've ever sent, and send a copy to them as well.

Sega would refuse to comment on the situation, and given that technically all traces of Luvli had been deleted by the company, they could not be legally held accountable for the program. It was simply announced that all emails coming from the previous Sega email address were to not be opened, and Luvli soon fell into obscurity.

..But if you search the Internet enough, and find that old email Sega used to use, There might be a love letter waiting for you.

more info hihi !! :] thanks for reading this far!!! as a treat, here are just some fun design notes for you !!

luvli is harmless for the most part, just a sentient ai that likes making users happy :]

if luvli knew abt identities, love would be omniromantic and asexual !!

luvli mainly uses love/loves, it/it's and they/them pronouns, but is okay with any pronouns !!

luvli is physically incapable of feeling strong emotions. if they feel too much of an emotion, their program crashes and needs to reboot. Unfortunately they have a short temper so this happens Very Often (autistic swag)

love's design is based off of the pink fairy armadillo !!

in an alt universe, they work for fatal error as spyware!
