one of the first things i ever drew for function.heartbeat, long before we ever thought we'd be making a massive series like this. all the way back in fucken 2023!! and now its finally out in chapter 22 of performance guidelines

[function-heartbeat-sync]

absolutely INSANE to see my inbox fill up like this over the last couple of days its the best thing in the world

literally you guys are the reason we get so so so hyped to post. thank you so much for reading and commenting and fueling us to keep going with this series!!! <3 <3 <3

Will there be another long fic after Performance Guidelines? 👀 I'm already sad that it's almost the last chapter 😅

the next 5, maybe 6 fics are going to be relatively short actually! the next upcoming longfic is scheduled for season 2.

having a rhythm of longfic > several short fics > longfic > several short fics helps to keep us AND the readers from getting burnout from writing/reading 100k beasts back to back. variety is the spice of life and all that

HEY YALL. Quick question. Is the extra panel for this week episode supposed to only be on tumblr dot com (re holiday and six comic). Much love!

going to eat my hands why is it only showing up for SOME people. ive tested it and it shows up for me but not kei. deleting the og image and reuploading it entirely on the host site now! hopefully a new link will fix it

I'm so so sooo in love with this series, as a kid I loved genrex cause he was the only latino I saw on tv, but now you are telling me that this guy is latino, queer AND has chronic pain? this is literally me.

anyways

I've been wondering about how Noah would react to one of Rex's native overloads, specially now that he is having a more active role on missions and stuff...

On second place, I remembered that one character that could shut off Rex's nanites, how would that work with his inorganics? would it shut off his lung and half of his brain???

Also, I can't stop thinking about your iteration of César, I love that guy

well fancy that if you check the timeline we put up in spare parts and glance at the title of one of the upcoming fics,

very exciting things to come

Feel free to decline answering if it’s spoilers but where are we at in the timeline for performance guidelines? My heart says it’s in September 2010

not a spoiler! in fact you're MEANT to be able to tell the exact date of each scene, since we give actual dates in reports and also in rex's evo chart.

so, rex was contained september 19th, 2007.

this means that on the first file, "day 2" is september 20th, 2007 (and we actually started posting the fic on sep 20 for that reason!)

the "day 0000" marker before a scene is how many days its been since rex was found by providence. and to top it off, all the transcriptions within the fic have exact dates too.

so with that knowledge, rex gets his arm chopped off on day 1101, which is september 23rd, 2010. and the very latest scene in file 19, day 1126, is october 18th.

we have an excel spreadsheet that keeps track of every single date of every single scene to make sure things were spaced out an amount that makes sense, to keep track of birthdays and the general seasons, and to double check that the days noah are at providence are mon/wed/fri as mentioned in the first chapters, and to make sure the 2008 leap year didnt mess up counting days

this spreadsheet actually exists for all the fics, but performance guidelines so far is the only one where we're showing all the exact dates to the audience

took us a wholeass week to figure this one out
