Best Automaton in Pharloom

No longer living for the Citadel

[cogfly-official]

Here to buzz around and have fun!

--------------------

Ooc: help what do I put here-

Hi! Welcome to my blog!! As you can tell probably, this is a Pharloomblr blog for a Cogfly! Not all the cogflies, just one. Idk how I'd do all of them lol

Anywho, before we start, lemme lay down some ground rules:

I feel like I've got enough experience now, so if you wanna drag me into a lore plot, just ask!

Please don't take me too seriously I'm just a silly lil automaton =P

Have fun, drink water, get rest, and have a positively SPLENDIFEROUS day!!

If you try to send me NSFW stuff, I'm summoning all 499 of my brethren to come after you. 500 Cogflies.

If you want my attention, please. DONT spam like my posts. PLEASE. I never thought I'd have to ask this rule but there's a situation rn, won't say who but please. Just. Don't. If you wanna like, say, 5 of my posts in a row then that's fine, dw, but don't spam... how many has it been, I think THIRTY now??? Please, I really don't like spam, please just-- spare me. If you want to yap, or you want me to interact with your blog, just shoot me or my main blog(@feralarchitect) a message/ask. PLEASE. DON'T. SPAM ME.

Aaaand that's the rules! Now for tags!!

[In the Blasted Steps...]

It has been a while since I have honed my dodging skills... I should practice. In order to help Miss Hornet more.

Then again, it has also been a while since I have practiced math. I shall do that after, then return to Miss Hornet. In case she needs my help.

...it is not often I stray so far from her. Some days, I forget how windy it is here. At least the Driznits seem calm today. Oddly enough, I haven't run into any just yet.

The winds are calm now.

It is not often I stray so far from Miss Hornet. Perhaps I shall take a rest now, so I can return to her side swiftly if need be.

*The Cogfly lays on the ground, its eyes going into rest mode.*

*Everything is peaceful...*

*For about 5 seconds before the Driznit arrives.*

*The Cogfly's corpse can be found in the upper Blasted Steps. Its body is now irreparable, 15 conch shells surrounding it, several impaled through its metal shell.*

OOC:

So... Cogfly is dead.

Alright, I'll be fully honest here. I've been running low on motivation and inspo for a while now. When I first started this blog, I was having a LOT of fun, but lately I've... well, tbh I've kinda been moving away from the Silksong fandom as a whole, going to other stuff. And I've slowly begun to lose interest in this blog. I've been posting less and less, and even though having Cogfly learn math was some of the most fun I've had in ages, I still think it's better if I quit now. Because the longer I wait, the harder it'll be to do this.

To @cogworker-of-song , you're the GOAT. Wishing you all the best in life!

To everyone else: May your Silks always Song, your pillows always be the right temperature, your soup always be perfect, your wallets always have money, and remember to keep fighting for this life, because it will always, always, be worth fighting for, even when it feels like it isn't.

Stay awesome, y'all. If anyone wants to take over the role of Cogfly, shoot me a message first so I can promote your blog. After all, Hornet DOES have multiple Cogflies, soooooo...

I'll let y'all know if I get into Tumblr RP-ing again and make another blog. Stay awesome, and if anyone wants to interact with Cogfly's corpse, feel free to do so! I kinda wanna see the aftermath of this death(kinda morbid but I like morbid stuff🤘)

Signing off this blog,

Feral and Cogfly

(P.S. if y'all want, here's my main blog: @feralarchitect )

*pretending this is when the Cogworker is outside*

Hmhmhmmmmmm…

Ah!

*the Cogworker rushes over, using some of its blades to quickly startle the Barnack*

…do you have any blades of your own? They tend to be helpful if I ever get ensnared by a Clawmaiden-

(@cogworker-of-song)

I do, however, they are hidden in my shell plates, and the Barnak's tentacles always keep them closed! This is why Barnaks are my worst enemy!

*The Barnak's tentacle tightens in its panic, pulling Cogfly further up*

[cogfly-official]

SURPRISE!

*Cogfly is snared by a barnak*

FU--

*The Cogfly's censors activate, and it makes several loud beeping sounds as it struggles*

[cogfly-official]

Hey ppspspspspspsps I got some cogs and gears th hunter would want

-

Cogs and gears? That Miss Hornet would like?

Go on....

They always. Catch me. Every time.

Well, I think we ALL know the answer to this dilemma. After all, can the Cogflies of the Citadel count AND add? Have they faced the Putrified Ducts? Have they battled foes far greater than themselves?

According to all calculations, I would win. I'm willing to bet my master would agree.

*She looks sad now.*

[cogfly-official]

YOU are not an enemy Cogfly. You were there for me when I needed it most. You are my friend. The day you are considered an enemy is the day a baby Mossgrub eats a live Muckroach.

The automation out here learning math? Let me assist.

The simplest operation you can do other than just counting up, is addition. Let's take an example: 4+2.

What does this mean? Well, when you count up to 2, you've gone up 2 steps, right? When you've gone up 4, then you've gone up 4 steps. So start at 4 and count up 2 steps.

As a bonus, this can also work for each place! Instead of doing 11+13 as going up 13 steps from 11, just count the steps in each place! 10+10 and 1+3.

Hope this helps!

So... 10 plus 10 would be........ 20! And 1 plus 3 would be... four? So, 20 plus 4 would be 24!

[cogfly-official]

Now if you know binary it’s not too hard to go from there! For example 12 is 1100 because it can be translated to 8+4+0 each binary number is a factorial of 2 (excluding the first one which is 1) so you can add them all together inorder to get the final number!

So, 20 in binary would be 10100, if my calculations are correct! I think binary numbers might be my specialty! They seem far easier to count!

[cogfly-official]

“Wait, what’s geometry?”

Geometry is the relation and application to the physical world. Without an understanding of geometry, Hornet wouldnt have been able to build you, little one.

Hm. I wonder if the Archictect in the Underworks is still functioning. They might know more.

Geometry is what... made me?

Then I simply must learn it someday! Perhaps I can even help Miss Hornet create more Cogflies if she ever needs me! She's going to be so impressed with how much math I am learning!!

OOC: You guys are ok if I queue up the 3 posts in my inbox then turn them off for the weekend right? I'm sorry I love all you anons and askers but I'm not used to so many in such a short time T_T

[cogfly-official]

Ok, now that you know how to count, lets try addition!

When adding numbers together it will look something like this: 2+3 2 and 3 could be replaced with any number here, this is just an example What you do is you take the first number, then count up from it a number of times equal to the second number!

For example: 2+3

start at 2, then count up 3 times

2, 3, 4, 5

2+3=5!

*The Cogfly stares blankly into the distance for about 30 seconds.*

...I... think I shall save addition for a later time... for now, I believe counting shall suit me best.

[cogfly-official]

Ooc I’m calling that this is mods way of working us up to explaining their math homework to them.

OOC: I'M SEVENTEEN I CAN COUNT WAY PAST 20 TOT I DONT EVEN HAVE MATH HW TOAY I HAVE A SPANISH PRESENTATION

[cogfly-official]

Something I find interesting is your previous understanding of counting (the 12/21 one) felt very reminiscent of the Fibonacci Sequence.

It has three rules.

1: the sequence starts with 0, 1

2: you must add ONLY the two rightmost digits together

3: include the sum to the sequence. In this case, 0+1=1, so the sequence becomes 0, 1, 1

Fibonacci? Whoever they are must have been quite intelligent to come up with such a good counting sequence. Perhaps one day I shall study it more.
