“Your powers are working alright?” Tattletale asked. 

Skitter: “Yeah.”

Grue: “The darkness doesn’t trust me.”

Tattletale: “It doesn’t– what?”

I nodded.

“Bug powers, was it?  Don’t want to get it wrong.  Control them, see through their eyes-”

Seeing through their eyes is something she can do, but rarely does because of mental overload.

“No.  I can’t see through their eyes or hear what they do.  It’s mainly touch.”

You can but you won’t.

So Lisa’s power naturally tells her you can.

“Just wanted to check.”  She paused.  “If I asked you what my power was?”

Taylor didn’t seem sure last chapter, but that was before she was sure this was actually Lisa.

I shook my head.

“Okay.  And if I said I was born in Mexico, could you tell me where I was born?”

Oh, huh. To American parents, or is she natively Mexican?

“Didn’t you just say?”

Heh. I think she means the city. Unless she’s testing short term access to knowledge gained after the miasma took hold.

“Yeah.  Repeat it back to me?”

“You were born in Mexico?”

Oh, alright, it was the latter.

Good to know it’s not immediately re-erasing that kind of thing.

Alright, looks like we’re seeing this through in this Arc.

Howdy! It’s time to play some Paranoia! Wait, no…

So, last time in Worm: Things went to shit, as they do, and Brockton Bay is now wicked cool looking covered in deadly red miasma that first makes you lose access to most knowledge of other people, causing almost everyone to have trouble trusting anyone else. Taylor has managed to meet up with and regain a shaky trust in Lisa and Brian, and thanks to Lisa’s power circumventing the miasma’s effect, they may actually have a shot at fixing this mess and saving the city from succumbing to the prions.

This time, we need to find cell reception (is it the miasma that blocks it?) or physically travel to Cherish (bad idea). Also, I just remembered, they found Cherish a place in the Trainyard, didn’t they? So she’s not quite as safe from the miasma as I suggested last chapter, though it might not have spread that far (yet). It’d be interesting to see how it interacts with her and her power.

If we have time for it this chapter, we might also track down Amy. Maybe. Oh jeez, what does she think about Victoria if she’s affected by the miasma? Or maybe worse, what does Victoria think about Amy?

I don’t really have anything else to say, so let’s get into it!

Wards pre and post Leviathan V/S hero aca main cast in S2 and S3 GO!

I haven’t seen past early season 2 of MHA, sorry.

I’m also not sure who qualifies as main cast. If we just take everyone in Deku’s class, we’ve got a huge imbalance numberwise and a lot of characters I don’t fully understand the powers of.

What other heroes might have a dark side?

All of them.

I’m not against having some actually thoroughly good people with no dark secrets in the story, far from it, but Wildbow has conditioned me to not really expect them to last like that.

It does seem a lot of the really good ones are Wards, which is interesting considering how we’ve had Interlude-like chapters from the perspective of most of them. But it’s worth noting that during Sentinel, it was relevant to paint Sophia as the odd one out.

And we see that, yet again, Bitch was fooled and betrayed by “words that sounded good”. It is pretty downplayed, but I think this is a major experience for her, because betrayal is such a huge thing in her life every time it happens its reopening a huge scar

Ouch, yeah. At least it was someone she had already decided wasn’t winning her over, this time, but still.

Hey, did I ever mention my idle hypothesis that the Monochrome was carrying some kind of speaker in her mouth in Interlude 11a? That she can’t speak but Siberian found a way to circumvent that this one time and make it appear like she could?

Seriously, everybody keeps underestimating Vista. Nobody seems to think much of the youngest Ward, but she is a badass and what she can do to Leviathan she could also do to you!

Yeah, sheesh! Even mr. Leg “people are stronger than they appear” End didn’t seem to take her seriously, though that was while under the effects of the miasma.

Vista was introduced as one of the kids who keep the myth of young triggerers being more powerful alive, but not a lot of characters seem to treat her that way.

Maybe it’s because they don’t expect her to be competent, just powerful.

The fetish for restricted partners is bondage.

Right, of course.

I guess I was thinking more about the wiggling out of a tight spot than why she was wiggling in the first place, and that’s why I didn’t think of bondage at the time.

That’s a Mankey, not a Primeape

Whoops, yeah, you’re right. The thing I made that image with didn’t label the Pokémon, so I was using the wiki to check which was which of the two, but I guess I mixed up which one I’d actually put in the image.

In my defense, the two look nearly identical except for the limbs.

I forgot to request the asks before Sharks went to sleep. Fortunately, if I don’t get to them tonight, at least I have plenty of time to do both the asks and a chapter session tomorrow.
