I used to really like the ✨ emoji but now she's best friends with AI and I feel like I can't trust her anymore
NO do NOT let them win. We can save her. We can wrest her association back from AI. She doesn't deserve this and we can't abandon her.
He did this to himself by snapping at my boyfriend, and then IMMEDIATELY turning around and leaving himself wide open for Cassia's clapback, but can everyone please leave my (adopted) dad alone. I put him through enough on an hourly basis lmfao
I put a hammer in his hands and now he sometimes wins battles alone and carries the whole concussed team back to the shuttle so idk guys
I refer to the adage about being wary of old people because they are old for a reason. Emperor bless this man since he has carried many a battle dual wielding power swords. That being said, he does leave himself open for these types of comments. Still love Dadbelard's pettiness though.
Weekend WIP
Still struggling with this chapter; I'm not happy with most of it but I like this scene:
The prisoner stopped screaming at last, and the room was silent. Breathing hard, each exhalation misting in the frigid air of the interrogation chamber, Heinrix looked at the corpse of Sirissa Consorvana, his mouth twisting in an expression of bitterness and despair. Despite everything, she had not been able to tell him how to navigate the Cat’s Cradle; she had always followed her Xenos partners through the maze of Webway gates. A creeping feeling of icy panic started to crawl up his spine as an unwelcome thought slunk into his mind: You’ll never find her. He slammed a fist into the heavy plasteel table, hard enough that he heard, then felt, bones snap in his hand. Ignored the pain, and repeated the gesture several more times...
Been thinking a lot about how strong a psyker Heinrix actually is, plus what he could and couldn't realistically achieve with his biomancy and sanctic daemonology. The 40K psyker system is not exactly a hard magic system and very much subject to "you can do whatever fits what you are writing", but I like myself some guidelines at least for my own writing. So I did some research to get a hopefully realistic picture.
I am disregarding gameplay here (the build you give him and the insane damage numbers you can achieve are, in my opinion, at most dubiously canonical) but AM keeping in mind the kinds of threats the retinue + RT emerge victorious against ingame (even if a lot of those REALLY should have killed you if you didn't have the "named character in 40K" buff...)
Heinrix's Psychic Assignment
For those unaware, the Imperium ranks its psykers based on their level of psychic ability (or lack thereof). This rating goes from Omega (also referred to as Blanks or Pariahs - individuals with a negative presence in the warp that can dampen psychic activity around them) all the way to Omega/Omega+ (probably around where the Emperor resides).
We can already infer the approximate range Heinrix is in based on the fact that he was considered worth training. An individual is considered a psyker and taken by the Black Ships if their rating is at least Iota. However, weak and/or unstable psykers are not worth training in the Telepathica. Instead, these individuals are sacrificed to sustain the Astronomican. Especially due to his training to become a Primaris Psyker, we can thus assume that Heinrix was, at the time, at least above average; Theta or higher.
We can also assume that he was not especially powerful, however. While present day Heinrix possesses an extraordinary amount of willpower and I'm sure ~12 year old Heinrix was not exactly weak of mind, his first manifestation, comparatively speaking, was not very dramatic. While he killed someone, there was no collateral damage, at least not anything spoken of. No Warp breach, no psychic phenomena; just the accidental use of a power he would go on to use in the course of his work. Lastly, we can also assume he was only middlingly powerful because his family kept him alive long enough to hand him over. Black Ships don't show up every day, so unless he got very (un)lucky, it's likely that he would have been in confinement on his home planet for up to a year. The more powerful the psyker, the more unstable they are and the more daemons take an interest (the stronger the psyker, the stronger their presence in the Warp). If he had been actively unstable, I strongly doubt that he would not have been killed before a Black Ship arrived. He'd be a liability.
Because of this, I would put ~12 year old Heinrix at High Theta to low Eta. Not weak, but not extraordinarily powerful. However, his abilities as a biomancer and his notable willpower would have made him an attractive psyker to spend resources training.
An individual's classification can change over time. Considering his Telepathica training, his time in the Guard and his drcades of service in the Inquisition, I am comfortable putting present-day Heinrix at Zeta or even Epsilon level. The feats we see him accomplish ingame, such as being able to stand up against Chaos Space Marines and even a Patriarch (albeit with help), certainly speak to a far above average psyker, arguably with room to grow should he expand his powers of sanctic daemonology.
Confirmed Canon Feats
In my quest to figure out a concrete framework for his capabilities, I first looked to things Heinrix is canonically capable of ingame. Since depending on your interpretation, abilities you can give him through level-up (like super speed) may not be canonical feats, I have divided this section into subsections accordingly.
Please LMK if I forgot or missed anything!
Biomancy (Text)
Boiling blood (Backstory, introductory scene)
Related, he can apparently make people float/hover using his powers (introductory scene)
Mending/closing wounds (mentioned during the monastery)
Dulling/removing pain (mentioned during Commoragh, done on RT after falling down the elevator during the Void Shadows DLC)
Righting injuries such as bones pulled out of sockets (also elevator in Void Shadows)
Slowing or halting own aging (mentioned during bridge dialogue)
Reconstructing his own eye (backstory, but just how damaged it was (gone? Just nonfunctional?) isn't explicitly stated)
Fixing even severe nerve damage (backstory and Commoragh)
Regrowing bones and skin (backstory; the metal plate in the back of his head)
Biomancy (Gameplay)
Iron Arm; reinforcing muscles
Regeneration on self + others
Poisoning others through attacks and psychic powers
Reducing others' speed and strength
Speeding himself and others up
Sanctic (Text)
Protecting (Psyker only?) RT from the psychic shrieks on Rykad Minoris
Word of the Emperor (mentioned in Bridge dialogue)
Sanctic (Gameplay)
Mass heals or damage buff through Word of the Emperor
Ranged Immolate Soul damage that is especially effective against daemons
Summoning a flaming sanctic swords that is capable of producing fire
Resulting Limits and Capabilities
Naturally, these are just snapshots of what he can do. Still, based on this and based on how complicated certain processes would actually be to influence, below is my assessment of what Heinrix can and can't do.
Easy
Mending non-complicated wounds such as flesh wounds and uncomplicated breaks. Easy on himself and others.
Accellerating someone's metabolism or immune system, to promote wound healing, expelling poisons or killing infections. Easy on himself and others. This would likely sap a lot of the person's energy as their nody is being made to expend energy at a rapid rate.
Sensing his own and other's physical state. Determining if they are unwell would likely be trivial; determining what exactly is causing it would need more time.
Accelerating someone's heartbeat (basically how blood boil works).
Sensing the presence of the Warp or daemons.
Shielding his mind or other's minds against daemonic influence (the block may be harder to uphold against stronger daemons. It also gets harder to upkeep the more people he is shielding).
Obviously channeling power through his force sword.
Medium
Mending more complicated wounds such as internal bleeding or organ damage. Mending non-clean breaks. This not only requires understanding and locating the source of the damage, but also expending power pretty precisely in order to fix it. He can do it, but not in the middle of combat: He likely needs some time to focus. He can likely apply a temporary fix even during combat, however this fix would only be upheld through continuous use of his powers: A bandaid, not a true cure to the issue.
Repelling or banishing daemonic influence. This heavily depends on the daemon in question, but would likely require a considerable battle of wills.
Strengthening/reinforcing muscles. Especially as a split-second decision.
Super speed. Since this is considered biomancy, I assume he would be doing a lot of changes in people's leg strength. Far from trivial, especially if you consider that you would also need to be able to think faster to keep up with your own speed.
Killing bacterial infections. I doubt he could do anything against viral infections outside of aiding the immune system. However, with time and focus, he could likely find and kill bacteria in an organism. Finding the right ones is another story, but I think it's possible.
Hard
Any neural or nerve manipulation on himself. This is VERY precise work and it's honestly shocking and impressive he can do it at all. It likely requires a lot of focus and precision and a strong understanding of biology.
Undoing warp mutations. While possible, it'd likely once more require very precise knowledge of the area of the body and how all the muscles, blood vessels, organs, ... are meant to look and sit. This would likely take hours of focused work and take a lot out of him.
Banishing daemons that have entered into realspace.
Halting or slowing his own aging. Aging involves a ton of different processes; manipulating it likely requires constant upkeep. I believe he could also do it for others, but it'd require weekly, if not daily, maintenance sessions.
Changing his own or others' appearance. While ex. changing hair color would be easy, changing facial or body structure would be much more tricky.
Probably Impossible
Fixing wounds where ex. shrapnel is stuck in the body. Biomancy cannot remove the shrapnel; he'd need tools to do so before he could heal the person.
Massively altering someone's biology. I doubt he is powerful enough to actively mutate someone (without killing them). This includes extra limbs, organ fuckery, etc.
Brain damage. The brain is simply too complex. Even if he could reconstruct it, he could not reconstruct the affected memories or motor functions.
Reanimating a dead person. If regular medicine could nit bring them back, I doubt he could either. He may be able to temporarily (while he upkeeps the power) restart their processes, but if they are already braindead this would essentially be a zombie puppeteered by him.
So about the Sanctic Daemonology...
Bigger lore nerds can correct me, but to my understanding, sanctic powers are NOT innate in the way biomancy/telepathy/... are. They must be learned, and it is considerably difficult to do so. His sanctic powers should thus be far less advanced than his biomancy.
Also, from my understanding, psykers can learn powers outside of their specialty / natural aptitude. However, it is difficult to do so and depending on the source, it is only possible to learn easy powers of other disciplines. So Heinrix could (and likely would) pick up minor telepathy to help with interrogations, for example.
Conclusion
That was a lot of yapping, but I hope my thoughts were interesting and maybe helpful! At the end of the day, psykers can do anything the plot needs them to (especially if they push themselves) but this should be a fairly realistic assessment of what Heinrix would be capable of. Feel free to correct me though - I'm still figuring this out myself.
my most Millennial trait is that i want big screen to think properly. to compose my thoughts. app exists for your thing but no website? bad bad bad not good for think, need big screen for think. i wrote this post on the small screen btw
some more lovely art of the boys by delores at @delores-blogs! i love this scene (from chapter seven just before their first kiss 👀), thank you for bringing it to life!
this is based on my rogue trader fic i bet on losing dogs which you can read here!
THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE FICS EVER ❤️ Please check it out!
The most genius thing about Mr. Darcy's first proposal to Elizabeth Bennet, IMO, is that you can totally see how he would believe it to be romantic and well received, even though he says the most monumentally stupid and hurtful stuff. Because Darcy is not actually stupid, nor is he actually bad, and Jane Austen had to come up with a way for him to propose in an awful way that was still believable. She nailed it.
Like, if you think about it, the idea of "this marriage is a bonkers idea that will make everyone I know upset but I don't care at all because I love you so much and cannot live without you and fuck everything else" is incredibly romantic and flattering. Who doesn't want to be wanted that badly? You can actually understand why Darcy thinks it's a good idea to say this out loud.
But the great thing about this sentiment is that it's simultaneously incredibly insulting. Who wants to hear that getting married to them would be bonkers? It makes you feel less-than, a feeling which the high and mighty Darcy has zero experience with and doubtless no conception of. It would be impossible to put himself into Elizabeth's shoes in this situation. Which again, makes it believable that he would say such stupid stuff to her in this proposal, even though he's an intelligent guy.
I'm just in awe of Jane Austen at creating a proposal that is simultaneously deliciously romantic and monumentally idiotic and horrible at the same time. It's pretty much the worst possible way to propose, a total train wreck, and yet you can buy Darcy believing it to be a smart way to propose. I love it.
WIP (I am alive???)
Hi... it has been a hot minute. I can no longer really track down who has tagged me, it has been a few of you (kisses and hugs to you, thanks for thinking of me).
Anyways... to the snippet.
Heinrix as RT von Valancius (flashback when he and Helena - my canon RT- meet before the in game events as acolytes under Calcazar)
“You served the Guard for years as well, haven’t you?”
Heinrix’s head snapped up from the leatherbound book he had been pouring over. In the couple of weeks since his sudden initiation, his frame had filled out considerably with the luxury of regular rations. Even his hair had started to grow on the cleanly shaven skull. Except over the large plate covering half his cranium. It was a small wonder, Helena mused with a tinge of amusement, how he was even capable of cramming himself in this little obscure nook. She would not have seen him either, if he had not moved in that moment and the sound of a turning page had not alerted her to his whereabouts.
“What gave it away?” His one eye narrowed while his entire posture went rigid.
Helena lifted her hands, palms facing him to appease the caution and tension now. “Not many are capable of being in a small space and make it fit for them.”
He chewed over it for good moment. “The barracks barely fit all of us. At least…” he paused briefly, the eye trained on her flickering to the floor where he let out a sigh. “At least in the beginning.”
A single day of battle in the Guard would end in a mountain of corpses and if it had gone well the mountain of the enemies’ corpses would be larger. She remembered too… All too well. Casting her gaze to the ground, Helena clasped her hands together until her nails dug into her skin.
“I remember,” was all she said. “I served too.”
Cloth rustled into the quiet. Lifting her eyes, Helena saw how the tension fled form Heinrix’s posture as he watched her intently from a squinted eye and a scarlet ocular augment. His curiosity had been piqued and in the way his lips curled, she knew a question was on the tip of his tongue.
“How long?”
“Ten years,” Helena shrugged.
Heinrix did not react at first, regarding her for a long moment before he jerkily gave a nod. “It must be an honour, to have survived this long.”
“The Emperor protects.”
“Indeed he does.” One corner of his mouth twitched up, while the other remained limp.

yeah ive got experience in handling international relations. ive got mutuals from all over the world and they even reblog posts from me
protect em dashes.
protect “not x, not y, but z” format.
protect short sentence stacking as a stylistic choice.
protect fanfic writers—who are kind enough to share their works with people to read for free—from ai witch hunts, speculations and accusations.
“don’t like don’t read” also applies to any fic that is ai-generated and any fic you think is ai-generated by the way. if you don’t like what you’re reading for any reason, you can always stop reading and exit the fic at any point. but harassment is never ever justified. no matter if you think you’ve found a noble excuse to do it. and also…
witch hunts, speculations and accusations harm the writing community as much as ai does. if not more. I don’t want to see another innocent writer get driven away from the community because someone decides to harass and accuse them for using ai just because their fic happens to have “ai telltales” — the same telltales ai got from having been trained on millions of human-made works to mimic how real humans actually write.
This is so important and occurs outside of the fanfic space as well. I've seen authors get rejected because their book sounded 'too AI' when they're just the type of writer who knows how to use em dashes. I've seen content writers and copywriters spend hours on assignments they submit for job applications that reject them for 'using AI' that they never used to begin with! All while those jobs hire writers who did in fact use AI and prompt it NOT to 'sound like AI' (because yes that is something you can very easily do), and publishers work with authors who have openly mentioned using AI for 'editing and brainstorming' while receiving little to no backlash for it.
Also, no you're not some holier than thou smartass for presuming everyone who does not have em dashes/'not x, not y, but z' writing is writing without AI and vice versa. I especially hate when people in power like publishers, employers, and professors use this presumption to make life miserable for writers who genuinely love writing
Tbh i also get heinrix because if i was a biomancer i would abuse the fuck out of it to eliminate annoying or inconvenient bodily functions and sensations. tired? hungry? back hurts? too hot or cold? not anymore. itch in a weird place? not anymore. and also attacking. someone pisses you off? Mega Headache Blast. etc. it would be awesome
