A young man sits in his living room. It just so happens that today, the 24th of June, 2018, is the day this young man intends to begin reading the chapter or Worm with the most Homestucky chapter number so far. Though it was 17 months ago he started reading Worm, it is only today he will be given a chapter with this distinction. Well, unless you count 11.1 and 12.6.

What will the chapter of this young man’s day be about?

> Young man: Speculate.

Your name is KRIXWELL JACE. You are a LIVEBLOGGER, and for almost a year and a half now, you have been slowly reading through the work of SUPERHERO FICTION known as WORM, all the while RECORDING YOUR THOUGHTS FOR ALL TO SEE.

Today, you don’t have many SPECULATIONS to talk about before you begin. When you last left off, the PROTAGONISTS were already BADLY HURT before BURNSCAR showed up to challenge them, and you find it FAIRLY OBVIOUS that the conflict with BURNSCAR is going to be the main focus of the chapter.

Exactly how the PROTAGONISTS are going to get out of this situation alive is HARD TO FATHOM. Perhaps it would’ve been easier if only TATTLETALE had been present to exploit BURNSCAR’S BACKGROUND and LACK OF DESIRE to remain part of her team when lucid from her ADDICTIVE POWER. At least SKITTER appears to have noticed the EMPTINESS IN BURNSCAR’S VOICE, which might eventually tip her off to it.

SKITTER’S POWER OF BUG CONTROL may be of limited assistance, due to BURNSCAR’S ability to BURN NEARBY BUGS WITH EASE. However, it did work out against LUNG in the past, as SKITTER IS QUITE CREATIVE.
