Really loving the swan AU, Apologies if you explained it elsewhere; I know the bird choice is to parallel crow but why a swan? Is it to reference swan lake? I love the neck wrap

i chose swan specifically for no big reason other than i saw mara's color palette and was like hm. "whats a white bird that's graceful? hmmmmmm" and it sort of retroactively became a loose reference to swan lake, haha

What is the exotic questline with grabby hands from Destiny? Also I had no idea we were stealing from an Eliksni kid in the truth quest, I just wanted that Gambit meta weapon.

Unfortunately I can’t for the life of me remember, but I think it was the one that introduced Zavala’s office. Zavala moves to hand you a key and as you reach to grab it with your filthy raccoon hands he pulls back like “hold on shithead.”

There’s also the quest text with Banshee where you have to go and - politely, mind you - tell him the door to the weapon is locked.

i really appreciate all this stuff with Anakin’s first Massacre, i feel like ive seen more about it recently than i have for years its great. Not sure if it's just coincidence, but its great

I’ve noticed an uptick in it as well recently! Which is always excellent. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or a trend, or if someone sparked it off somewhere. I know for me It’s been something I’ve been planning on addressing this point since I started writing the first part in this installation (The Greater Crime), but seeing more and more people address it is always so exciting and almost always thought provoking.

@macgyvertape replied to your post “Getting into a series being created by a millennial who talks about...”

what show op

As it says in the tags on the original post: Hazbin Hotel!

If you’re interested but haven’t seen the five billion posts floating around about the series, be warned for some wildly inappropriate language, due to the fact that the cast is literally in hell and therefore made up of terrible people.

@macgyvertape replied to your post: “On what CT knew.”:

That’s something I’ve been confused at. So the “innies” are Charon employees, but at that point was Charon working for the unsc as a pmc? I see things like the pfl tea, should have known who they were fighting, but how?

Yeah, it’s confusing. The soldiers were UNSC, hired out to Charon to act as a security force for them. As for whether Charon was also directly working for the UNSC, it’s never explicitly stated, but Epsilon does say that, “Charon and the military started getting really buddy buddy,” so probably.

So, should the Freelancers have known who they were really fighting? Debatable, and I don’t know if there’s a definitive answer to that. Their targets certainly weren’t armed and outfitted like UNSC soldiers. On the other hand, the idea that Insurrectionists were operating out of the middle of an urban center practically out in the open might have been a clue that their enemies weren’t who they believed--and in fact it is after that mission that York and North express misgivings in private, so it’s not like everyone was completely oblivious.

I don’t imagine it was completely obvious, but I’m sure there were signs that many of them ignored, or didn’t act upon. And I could get into what it would actually take for soldiers like these to question their orders in a time of total war... but that’s probably more than I have time for tonight. ;)

Those Meta commentary posts give me life, and now I have to go find the ones for the symbiotic fic

!!!! Thank you so much?? ;;;;w;;;;

I haven’t written a commentary for the symbiote fic yet (if you mean Hello Handsome), but I intend to as soon as I post my last chapter. The only thing holding me back is that I’m worried I’ve gone off track and contradicted myself. Whoops.

Here’s my spotify playlist for Hello Handsome btw
