Wormblr Confession Time:

At the risk of inventing Worm Catholicism and generating guilt where there shouldn't be, I'm making a post for myself and y'all to share our Worm Confessions.

Okay, here goes:

I got into Worm because I saw it mentioned on tv tropes.

I got into Worm fanfic because I saw THAT mentioned on tv tropes as well.

As much as I want people to find Brian interesting as a character because he IS interesting and a badass and doesn't get enough credit in general, Taylor/Brian is a boring ship and people were 100% justified in making other ships way more popular.

The Trés holemies

worm cape names really do rock though because the book captures the sheer randomness and at times ridiculousness that cape names would realistically have in a world where there are thousands of capes and everyone has to have their own name. the early capes took all the really good and straightforward superman-esque names like "hero" or "legend," so the later generations have to pick out shit that's actually relevant to their powers for a shot at being unique. one of the most relevant villains in the united states of america is called "skitter," which isn't bad, but also, like, she didn't even pick it, the cops did because she was indecisive. also, while the cops were picking it, they unsuccessfully checked to see if like 5 other different bug-related names were free first. sorry, that username cape name is already taken. and then you have capes with really cool names that would, in any other cape media, be an indicator that they're a super important character. but in worm they're just getting murked left and right, or are at the very least extremely irrelevant. perdition is without question the funniest example of this--sounds like he should be a work's ultimate villain in the same vein as darkseid, actually is a loser teenager who gets sold to one direction. "eleventh hour" is a background cape that gets mentioned one (1) time and has an extremely lame power, but "gray boy" is a Big Fucking Deal. sometimes capes have names that are, unfortunately for them, extremely mockable, and characters in the story do in fact capitalize realistically on this. condolences to renowned superhero Glory Hole! as for the media/pr angle, calling a villain "bitch" isn't very pg-13, so you've got a cape running around calling herself something entirely different than the censored name the cops & media gave her. it's good. It's a good book.

reblog if you made it this far somehow

Mind reading

I don't really get people who say they tihnk mind reading would be a bad super power to have, most reasons I've seen for it are that you'd get to know all of the bad things people think of you but...

Wouldnt that actually just be a positive? I mean at least to me (may or may not have some issues with paranoia tbf) it's like sure I'd know what other people think of me and some of what they think might be negative but at least I know they see me negatively or positively and all things considered I'd be satisfied with that knowledge.

I do suppose it kind of depends on the mechanics of the mind reading to say for sure but that might already be looking into it a bit too deeply.

Just a random thought I've had for a while.

I had an interesting night last night
