Hello, yes, new follower, finished Worm a long time back, and, seeing your EGS reaction images, I have a question for you: how would you feel about a Worm/EGS crossover?

(Welcome! Good to have you along!)

I think Worm and EGS are two works that don’t mesh all that well in terms of themes and tone (with the exception of Damien, who wouldn’t be terribly out of place in Worm), but a crossover could still be a lot of fun – perhaps even more fun depending on how the crossover was done.

A crossover is kind of what I ended up talking about in this post, actually, when I was asked about comparing the two works. 🙂

I got the impression Bonesaw thought Jack would know about the limitations of the safeguards due to having them and would be smart enough to only attack if he knew he could bypass them, rather than anyone with the safeguards being able to bypass them.

Oh yeah… that makes so much more sense.

Hm. Regent might be able to get some details out of him the same way he gathered information from Shadow Stalker, at least, so shogi might still be somewhat helpful to get past the protection, just in a different way.

Skitter was in the shower to apply cold water to her burns when Grue was stopping her from running off to confront Burnscar. That’s what he meant when he says she doesn’t sound like she did in the shower.

Ohh, I see!

So, after making a big deal about the chapter number 13.4 in the opening post, you managed to call it 13.5 in the closing post.

End of chapter post is mislabeled 😛

Pfft. Good jorb me. 😛

(Fixed, thanks!)

Given Burnscar’s… well, scars I’m more inclined to think that her trigger involved abuse. Her power almost certainly make her immune to fire so the cigarette burns have to be pre-trigger I think.

Oh, right. I’m pretty sure I’ve speculated on that before, but the scars and their heavy implication of her trigger event slipped my mind for a moment.

Hmm, Charlotte sure hasn’t been much of a bystander lately, huh! I wonder what could have prompted that.

I know, right, isn’t it wonderful? 😀

This is a big part of why I loved it so much when Charlotte stepped up to help after the Shattering. Not only was she not being a bystander, she was actively setting an example to help cure the rest of the crowd of their bystanderism in the moment. That’s an excellent bit of character development right there, making that a crowning moment of awesome in a relatively simple gesture.

I will write it down since I’m getting a little bit more annoyed at your mistaken characterization of Bitch considering joining. She never said she would join. Just that she would undertake the tests without asking for help because she was feeling split away from her human connections at the time, that being her team and even Coil, for filling her base eith people

At the time, it wasn’t clear – to me or Bitch, as far as I remember – that there was no choice in the matter, and Bitch absolutely made the decision to “see what these tests [were] all about]”. That’s pretty damn close to “I’ll consider it”.

She has been showing a different attitude now that the trials have actually started, though.

But yeah, I’m absolutely not going to deny that I have some trouble properly understanding Bitch at times, for instance expecting her to be more violent than she ends up being, or underestimating her desire for human connections.

I’m a cat person.

“You never know when you’ll have to change out of costume in a public bathroom with a coin deposit slot.” By the way, America doesn’t really have these–public restrooms are free. The upside is that in the direst of emergencies you never have to worry, but it doesn’t do wonders for their cleanliness.

Ah.

In Norway, most public restrooms are free, but this does happen sometimes. More commonly, though, you may have to ask for a key or for the restroom to be unlocked by staff where you are, but even that’s not something you see all that many places. At least not up here in the north.
