This is the official ask blog for the red team in an au created by @aboxisonmyhead! The banner and icon are placeholders until I make something better!
From the very beginning, both teams were aware of the laws of nature that were being broken for this war. They knew everything was wrong with how they lived after death, but they elected not to think about it. They got paid very well, after all! They didn't want to lose this job!
... They didn't realize just how much natural law hated them, though. They didn't realize just how much it would be willing to do to fix what was wronged, and they didn't realize what it would create to fix these wrongs.
The RED Team is suffering. The RED team is being fed on, and the RED team is... unable to escape.
The BLU Team doesn't know... and hopefully they never will. Not until they are next.
Now, be careful what you ask!You don't know what might be listening.

➣ ASK STATUS: OPEN for BOTH teams!
(Rules, introductions, the tag guide, and character sheets are under the cut!)
➣ OOC/Mod Notes:
Hi, I'm Box, and this au is called The Agony Feeds! Was created on my main @aboxisonmyhead, but it is best to be aware of THIS POST HERE to understand what it is I'm doing and how little you can take from the past posts :,).
The characters will become available and unavailable to asks depending on what exactly happens with the story, so be careful! You might end up getting a merc to disappear for a bit!
I am open to other RP Blogs appearing, though I do not want for them to be too intrusive and attempt to make their own storyline with TAF!

➣ ASK RULES:
To those of you who were around for the past parts of this AU, NO SPOILERS!!! PLEASE GOD I WANT SOME THINGS TO BE OMNIOUS AND UNKNOWN.
Any OUT OF CHARACTER questions you might have (a.k.a.: questions you want to ask ME directly) must be asked ON MY MAIN BLOG! Ask those questions THERE and not HERE! You will be ignored if you do not!
NO NSFW! That is NOT where I want this to go and I am NOT. COMFORTABLE WITH IT. NSFW asks will result in an IMMEDIATE block.
Please do NOT try to make asks that are meant to force the storyline into YOUR perceived/wanted storyline. I have a path I want this to go on, and I don't appreciate anything being forced onto my vision. Be careful with that!
General hate such as homophobia, transphobia, racism, etc. will NOT be tolerated on this blog!
This blog is STRICTLY for The Agony Feeds! Do NOT come into the askbox with things like drama, politics, and stuff like that because this blog is NOT meant to hold anything like that.
PLEASE don't spam the askbox. If you have multiple questions, try to send them all in the same ask so that the askbox doesn't end up getting clogged up and I end up missing people.
Don't expect your questions to always be answered clearly. They are answered in specific ways for specific reasons!
Depending on how many requests I have already, how big the requests are, and how much work I have in real life, I may or may not be able to do art requests. Make sure to check the status on Art Requests being open or closed before asking!
NEVER expect your art request to be done! Just because you sent it doesn't mean it is a guaranteed drawing. Depending on how much you ask for, I may not be willing to do it.
(I copy and pasted this from another askblog I am a part of,,, I'm too lazy to rewrite all that.)
Quick heads up: When I answer questions, it will most likely be in bulk! I want to have down time in between the bulk posts for my normal life and stuff, so there'll be a good pause in between.
I dunno how long the pauses are gonna be tho . I don't have a set schedule yet-
Ah, what have we here? An empty signal? Well, seeing as it registered to my transponder, it must be truly be entertaining! That is, if there is anyone receiving this?

RED SCOUT, picking up the radio gingerly: Uh- H- Hello? What the hell-?
RED SOLDIER: SCOUT! WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU DOING???
RED SCOUT: AGH- FREAKING- SOLDIER! DON'T STARTLE ME LIKE THAT, I ALMOST DROPPED THE RADIO!
RED PYRO: Mhph. Mmmph?
RED SCOUT: No, I just- I thought I heard something? I- I thought we-
RED SPY: Mon dieu, Soldier, calm yourself. It's just a radio.
RED SOLDIER: With a MICROPHONE! WHAT IF WE ARE BEING LISTENED TO RIGHT NOW???
RED DEMOMAN: (sighs) Soldier, just- get over here, man. I'm too tired to deal with your bullshit right now.
RED SNIPER: (softly, whispering) ... Scout.
I heard it, too.

Hello, everybody! I know that I said I was abandoning this askblog and focusing on the fic, but then I eventually abandoned the fic too and everything for this au kind of... fell apart.
HOWEVER!
I AM BACK AND WILLING TO DO SO MUCH MORE THAN BEFORE!
I have decided that I will NOT be writing a fic, and will instead be keeping this askblog as the true core part of where this au will exist! I will be making writing/story posts to further the actual plotline of what will be happening, and I will be responding to asks just the same!
If you remember from the past, I had written a long post that consisted of Scout being taken away by "Medic" and Heavy, and it's posts like THOSE that I will be creating in order to continue onwards where I want to go! Think of this more as a story told through tumblr posts that you can ask questions on rather that just interacting with the characters for shits and giggles.
Not ONLY that, but I am ALSO willing to DRAW sometimes! I've grown quite a bit in my art skills and I am now semi-confident enough to make that a Core Part of this blog. I will even try to make the "story" segments into actual comics when I have the time and will to do so!
Either way, consider THIS BLOG to be the TRUE TAF fanfiction, and everything will be ironed out and fixed up very very soon! For now the askblog will still be closed while I do my work, but keep an eye out for my next post HERE that will announce the true opening of this blog once again!
Most asks and posts from BEFORE this revival will be deleted, and if they AREN'T deleted, make sure to take them with a grain of salt!
The only things that will be considered FULLY and UNDENIABLY canon are the things after this post that I will reblog from my main on THIS blog AND anything posted on this blog explicitly. Everything from the past WILL be ignored in what I make NOW.
I want a fresh start, and that means deletion of most of the things on this blog and ignorance of what i posted on my main before.
