I do love myself some web serials but they can be so hard to recommend to folks :,)

Like Worm? 1.6 million words of people having a bad time that never gets better, and not everyone is here for hurt no comfort

Vigor Mortis? Body horror, identity death and people constantly making bad decisions is a hard sell, in addition to the hurdle of the first half of story being kinda poorly written for all that I love it

Necroepilogos? So much body horror, cannibalism, and unresolved sexual tension, not to mention trying to explain Elpida’s cadre-polycule to people

Only one I’ve ever successfully convinced anyone to read is Practical Guide to Evil, and now even that’s hard to pitch since the rewrite means you can’t easily access your complete original but we also won’t the full new version out for years

Vita is making me think about how many of the characters I like treat their own body as basically just a tool for them to use. Mostly because she is a character I like who says "My body isn't me, it's mine" out loud to her friends like she thinks it's a normal thing to believe.

Ah yes my favorite trans experience, growing up not knowing there was another option than hating your body and so just completely dissociating from it <3

God I love the trope of a character who refuses to stop sacrificing themselves even as their friends try to make them. Physically emotionally morally doesn’t matter it’s always so so good
