I’m honestly annoyed that Dragon WAS affected by Tattletale. You’d think people would learn not to talk to the thinker whose file says not to talk to her.

Hehe, yeah. Though we saw how well that turned out in Extermination! 😛

Also: I suppose it ties in with how certain Dragon was that she wouldn’t be needled by Tattletale. Dragon underestimated Tattletale and overestimated herself, like so many others.

That said, Tattletale’s needling of Dragon was kinda limited. She didn’t even really need her power to do it, except maybe to say “she’s sore about this”.

Can you send krix some of the Skitter Facts? At least the ones that wont spoil stuff?

Skitter Facts:

Skitter doesn’t run from danger. Danger runs from her, gets tripped up, and has its crotch melted off by spiderbites. (1.5)

Skitter has never gotten a cold. She once had a concussion, but the city never recovered. (5.1) 

A supervillain once looked at Skitter funny. She cut out his eyes. (5.9)

Unlike Clockblocker, time doesn’t stop for Skitter. Instead, it waits for her permission before moving.

Skitter once decided to distract a tidal wave. She succeeded. (8.4) 

 Normal rodeo is for wusses. Skitter rodeo-rides Endbringers. While stabbing them with a halberd. (8.5) 

Skitter once tore a living storm a new asshole. Literally. (8.5) 

Skitter started her villain career as an undercover hero. She was so skilled that when the villains she’d set out to betray found out, they offered her her job back. (8.8) 

If you can’t see Skitter, she can still see you. If you can see Skitter, you’re about to get dogpiled by a swarm of bugs that weigh more than you do. 

Actually, Skitter does have eyes on the back of her head. And on the wall. And around the corner. And on your head. 

In Brockton Bay, arachnophobia is no longer a recognized medical condition. Instead there are several new conditions for people who are not yet deathly afraid of bugs.

Ahaha, I love this. 😛

Since Krix has mentioned interest in wormfic, maybe you could give him just a little taste of it whilst also letting him know what to expect. Yet Another Worm Fanfic is what I have in mind, and he’s far enough into canon that it contains no spoilers or hints he hasn’t gotten already. It should be easy to find if you just google the name, and its barely a few paragraphs long.

It seems Sharks disagrees on this specific fic being spoiler free (“It’s kinda massive fucking spoilers.”), but in general, I’m open to the idea of reading some shorter fics if Sharks is okay with screening them. Ideally ones posted / last updated around the same time as the chapters I’m at, to minimize spoiler potential even before screening.

‘You say as if the Protectorate wasn’t using Bakuda’s bombs against Leviathan and isn’t constantly providing plenty of PRT soldiers and capes with equipment made by tinkers other than themselves’ As we all know, bombs are perfectly safe. Also, emphasis on the ‘verify’ part.

Dragon did mention verifying the devices, but she specifically said that only the tinker who made it could verify it as safe, and I highly doubt they had Bakuda verify her devices.

That said, I’m not so much calling the PRT out for hypocrisy as I am calling her out on a poor bluff. She was clearly saying that mostly because she saw the truth in what Tattle was saying, that Kid’s stuff could help them get out of there before the Protectorate reinforcements arrived. Tattle, on her part, decided to call her out on it in a more personally hurtful way.

“Tick Talk”. That’s better, although it loses the reference to Clockblocker’s talks with his mom, Glory Girl and Vista being “on the clock” in the sense that he was supposed to be in the classroom.
