HI I have headcanons for overseers. Theyre funny little bugs to me
Overseers are somewhat sentient and are basically little creatures. They don't do much beyond avoiding danger, looking at interesting things, and listening to directions from their iterator.
They do have little nuggets of personality, though! For example, some overseers are braver than others, some will follow a creature for a long time, etc. Heck, some overseers even prefer to communicate with specific overseers (friendship??). Overseers are also able to have favorite objects, places, or creatures.
If an iterator is unable to communicate with their overseers, their overseers will continue doing their duties and trying to follow instructions. An example would be Iggy, who may have been obeying a command given to it shortly before Moon's collapse to go and get help.
Also, the death or incapacitation of an iterator does not necessarily spell death for their overseers. The surviving overseers will keep working but tend to be directionless and lost. They don't truly understand that their iterator is gone. Orphaned overseers often don't survive for very long, since there's no one around to repair them or keep them from wandering too far from home.
Overseers don't respawn - their bodies don't have enough biological material for that to happen. Instead, if an overseer is killed, its eye must be retrieved and repaired (note: repairs are often long and finicky processes) in order to bring it back to life. Some iterators choose not to go through the hassle of reviving overseers and instead replace them.
It's possible to assign an existing overseer to a new iterator. However, the overseer may be confused for a while, since its code says it was made for a different iterator.
This information is for the standard overseer model. Some iterators have specially-made overseers that are more intelligent, can do more things, can travel farther, etc.

Wait. WAit. You are telling me sid is The. Only. Guy. In. The. League. Who still uses non replaceable skate blades and this is the reason why sometimes skate issues bench him for longer than normal??????
Ok. Ok sid. I get it. You have been catered to your entire life. You are the Special One. Nobody has ever told you that you are wrong. This is all valid. But this one issue is truly ridiculous. Wasnt that the reason he wasn't on the ice during overtime in that crucial loss two games ago? Because of a skate issue?
.sid. with all due respect sometimes change can be good, sid.

one thing about the hbomber video and about plagiarism in general is that,,, honestly, i probably wouldn't mind if someone was "just reading book quotes at me"? i love research, but i also have adhd and i really really struggle with reading books or watching longer videos (i keep watching the hbomb vid in segments with breaks, i haven't even finished it yet)
so to have someone compile a bounch of different sources, and then reading or showing parts from them - as long as everything is properly credited, and consented for that kind of usage, obviously !!! - sounds great, i think. obviously it would be even better if you had your own thoughts throughout, linking the topics together, but even just,, taking the time to take bits and pieces from different books, documentaries, articles, and compiling them into this collage of information, with proper credit, maybe nice graphics, subtitles - doing the work for me, making it more accessible - that sounds amazing to me, like there is a market for that i believe, no need to lie and plagiarise
