Weld Deserves Far More Hate Then He Gets. Smarmy Cocksucker

I feel so stupid rereading the Blue Heron arcs because I'm constantly like "omg blorbo beenis from later in this story" and I get excited every time

Sorry if I'm like, reciting something I forgot I heard on We've Got Worm or read in a post or something, but one thing that makes the cafeteria scene in Worm so great and warms my heart like nothing else is what it really means when the other kids stand up to side with Taylor.

Because Taylor's defining trauma was being shoved in a rotten, disgusting locker and yelling and banging for help and, crucially, knowing that there were tons of people around, and none of them cared enough to try and help her. She got a Master power from being a social outcast.

But after her career as a villain, with every heroic act, she started setting an example. That's what changes things. She flips out on Charlotte- despite the poor girl only just having been saved from human trafficking- for being a bystander back at school and not trying to help. And she did it right after making the choice to save Charlotte rather than being a bystander herself. And after that, after risking her life fighting mannequin, Charlotte decides to take in the neighborhood kids orphaned by Leviathan and the Slaughterhouse Nine.

Who do you think taught her that? What changed from when Charlotte stood by and let some random classmate get bullied so bad she got sent to the hospital psyche ward? Who taught her to expect better from herself?

And Charlotte is the first to stand up when Taylor tells people to stand with her.

The biggest contrast between Taylor visiting Arcadia and back when she was in Winslow isn't that the Undersiders are in power and corrupt the system to their own ends, it's that, despite their evils, they fought their way through a harsh point in the city's history and helped others along the way.

So Taylor, after once calling out for help and being ignored by people who were indifferent or felt powerless, calls out for help again and the people around her risked their own safety for her because of the example she set.

I just read Vyre's interlude in RoW and this meme is all I could think about

Dungeon Meshi...AH! Dungeon Meshi!

Vicky!!!!!! thanks!!!!

This took me a little too long to draw honestly

I have decided I like drawing Vicky, even if I have no idea if I’m doing it right

One of my favorite genres of post

old lisa drawings that i didnt quite like. but they pair well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I do genuinely love Verona actually. She thinks she’s way smarter than she is and is unfailingly arrogant about it. She loves doing the practitioner doublespeak lying-while-telling-the-truth thing so much that it actively is a detriment to her life and yet she continues. Out of the trio she’s the one who just genuinely loves learning for the sake of learning and magic for the sake of magic more, which makes her fascinating to read because she’s so interested in everything thats going on (except when she isn’t. Either 110% interest or 0%). She never compromises on what she wants out of life no matter what. Her neuros have diverged significantly and she truly could not give two shits. She only feels negative emotions once a week and it physically cripples her. I have so many thoughts and yet can articulate none. Maybe one day. Anyway absolutely the favourite of the three and honestly she’s the one who makes the most sense to me. I can fully see where she’s coming from and where she’s going. Absolute rejection of humanity girlboss
