Hi there!

Before this story begins I would like to say something.

Thermonuclear is a dark story. This is a story about death and grief. If these topics make you uncomfortable I urge you please do not read this. This is not a story for everyone.

I will tag pages with the appropriate warnings.

Thank you for being here.

Much love — Phinix53

Okay. Here I go!

During the intro, it said,

'1485 Days Since The Blast'

I converted the info into years and got 4 years, 3 weeks, and 4 days.

Is that correct?

Now, in the story, Goth exists. Judging from the timeline and length; with Goth being a child in the fic, that adds up pretty well.

So!

Who birthed Goth?

Assuming that Goth is 4 years old, that would mean Geno (or Reaper) was pregnant when the Blast happened.

Question 2.

What type of Blast are we talking about here? Could you please provide specifics?

And what course of events led to the Blast in the first place? Prejudice? An experiment gone wrong? A natural cataclysmic force?

I NEED TO KNOW.

Following the current events of the story; Blue, Killer, ???, and Dream are part of the Snow Fox Crew.

They were set to Base Delta (?), but when they got there, the place was deserted.

Killer said, "They're dead…”

He didn't know for sure if the residents of Base Delta are DEAD, just that the place was abandoned, and with the current detrimental conditions, he would be right to assume otherwise.

And so! Are we dealing with the Effects of the Blast?

Maybe people who got transformed through radiation or something?

Additionally, I'd like to ask what Nightmare's crew is called. Since Dream's crew is referred to as "Snow Fox Crew".

Following the end of Chapter 1 and the start of Chapter 2, The gang went out to grab supplies (correct me if I am wrong) and following the end, got Blue and Killer back into their custody.

My question is, Who keeps resupplying the Supply Areas?

I'm assuming there's someone higher up in the coming chapters that handles everything, but for now, I'm stuck with theorizing.

And finally, Who THE FUCK is Z?

Never once in my life have I ever encountered the guy, or maybe you renamed a renowned skelebabe? Or perhaps an OC of sorts?

And thank you.

Word of warning, I'll keep bombarding you with a long ass asks filled with nothing but theories and incessant questions, and then yeet myself out without warning.

I ask question after question regarding the lore of the story and then go ghost.

No seriously, I learned my mistake with

Little Skeleton on the Prairie by Blue_Leading_Pencil.

(you should check it out. It's GREAT.)

I still feel guilty about going ghost, but I can't bring myself to talk to them.

So I just want to warn you first and foremost.

Alrighty!

Yes! That’s correct, it’s been just over 4 years since they’ve all been stuck Base BETA. I’m using stuck lightly, they would send out teams to search for other bases and get supplies, but usually with various success.

Lust was the one to carry Goth,they were a surrogate to Geno and Reaper (Lust has no biological connection to Goth). Goth is just shy of six years old, so he was born far before the blast. His birth (and conception for that matter) were a part of an experiment that could not successfully continue after the blast (basically the experiment was to see if monster children were born in the environment, would they adapt to fit it in extreme conditions). Geno and Reaper were not initially attached to Goth, see him as the experiment he was. But they adjusted eventually, they’re decent parents, not the best. A good chunk of BETA does enjoy having the kid around. Good for morale.

Question 2 ✨

The blast in question was multiple Tsar Bombs among other nuclear warheads detonating simultaneously. Geno wrote in a journal that the whole sky lit up he had never seen before, he would call it beautiful if not for the devastation that would follow.

Leading up to the blast, a war had broken out among several of the governing bodies, human and monster alike. The culminated in multiple bombing raid, wars and generally a bad time for everyone. So basically the hubris of man plunged the world into a nuclear winter. I will say that magic was heavily present in the world before the war and some people blamed monster kind for starting the war.

—~—

Blue, Killer, Ross and Zein (oc cannon fodder ✨) were members of Snow Fox. They are all from Base BETA. Killer and Blue didn’t get along before this mission, wonder what changed.

Dream was a resident of DELTA.

Kinda. Being isolated and losing communication with the outside world can be harmful to one’s mental state. The whole of DELTA was deserted, but Snow Fox found that there were still plenty of supplies and specialized vehicles were still were the bay. Blue would describe it as if the residents of the base simply got up and walked out into the snow never to be found again.

DELTA was made up of a mix of humans and monsters. Dream was one of those monsters. Dream had been living in the Arctic Circle long before war ever began, working on an extremely confidential project, Project SEED. Blue and Killer could not locate Dream’s personal items when the went to DELTA, meaning Dream must have moved base or something worse. Can confirm that almost everyone from DELTA is dead.

Nightmare’s crew is called North Wind. Nightmare and his crew were heading out to a signal tower to see if there was anyone still alive and if they could repair the tower if it was damaged.

Them finding Blue and Killer was quite lucky.

Color and his crew used to do the resupplies for the stations. These supply stations are super packed with stuff. Color and the gang aren’t around anymore but they did a good job making sure there were stashes in many places before his accident. Of course there may be other major stashes that have people *wink wink*

XD

Z is @celestialvix personal oc. Quirky little guy

And that’s perfectly fine with me. I love getting ask like these were I can really sink my teeth into the lore and share stuff. So feel free to ask away.

And imma ad that to my list of things to read, thank you ✨

I understand that completely, but I’m sure they would love to see you in their ask box again.

Is it okay to ask questions regarding Thermonuclear?

Ya of course!

Ask away ✨

The base outfit of every character in thermo.

Obviously a lot of them have customized their clothing, such as Blue having a bandanna tied around his arm. Lust has the Red Cross symbol.

And their jackets are colored by group.

Mice been in a thermo mood here lately

Do you intend to turn Thermonuclear into comics in the future, or post it here on Tumblr

I do intend to have a full comic of Thermonuclear. I have plans to publish its pages beginning in December. I know that’s a long ways off but I’d rather have everything just right for it. I like giving people an option to read ahead of the story if that so chose to. I know there are people out there who don’t like reading comic and those who do.

Me personally if I find a comic or webtoon that is a story adaptation, I’ll go strait to the story to read it and then I’ll go to the comic. It’s really up to personal preference.

That’s also why I’ve kept the full written story separate from the comics location, so if someone just wants comic they dont have to deal with a massive text post. I just find it easier.

That’s why Technoid and Thermonuclear also have their own spots separate from my main so things don’t get muddled. I know I should have made on for Ferine but I’m lazy and have to many side blogs as it is.

You can give us a little thermonuclear. (synopsis, plot, a scene, anything)

There ya go ^^

Here are some of the scenes from the story.

It’s just a story for fun, tho it’s an extremely dark story. It’s not going to be for everyone and that’s ok. This is a story that involves a huge amount of death. The thought that there are immortal beings, throw it out the window. People with good morals, nope not here. Once a person is dead, that’s it. There is no coming back. I’m just having fun. This is so different from everything else I’ve ever worked on, it’s a lot darker and sadder.

If you want to read some of the chapters they are here -> https://archiveofourown.org/works/34866373/chapters/86816605

I need to update the tags tho.

And here’s a little bonus pic.
