OK I HAVE BEEN PUTTING THIS OFF FOR FAR TOO LONG because I keep having trouble figuring out how I’m going to go about posting this AU (mostly translating the idea into words that I can show ppl) but it’s been since like AUGUST and I’m mad at myself for delaying it for so much time so HERE IT IS, in all it’s nonsensical glory!

Basically the idea is that Battat thinks it’d be a good idea to get Tenna some professional maintenance done, (maybe before or) after being Cleaved Red By Blade, so he asks around and is told about this other darkworld that’s in an electronics repair shop in the lightworld. The darkworld appears as a hospital for mechanical darkeners though, and he somehow manages to get Tenna to go there. However, the place ends up being awful for him and he has a very bad time :)

Genuinely, the entire idea started as me thinking: “y’know what’d be fucked up? If Tenna got a fuckin’ grate drilled over his screen,” and then I just started playing evil dress-up with him from there and the ideas avalanched into whatever this is. Putting my touys through medical malpractice :)

if half of it makes zero sense uuuuhh whoops I have writing things scrambled all over a notes app file lol. There’s also a good amount of stuff in the AU I haven’t explored yet so I’m sure there’s gaps in here that are confusing.. I’ll be happy to answer questions about it tho!! (I also need to answer the backlog of asks I’m sorryyyyy)

Writing blurb of the initial idea from my notes under the cut!

SYNTAXERROR

Part 1 of 3

whumpinggremlin

Decoded this without using a translator because I... idk I guess I just wanted a late night challenge or something lol. Also no, I didn't know wingdings before deciding to translate this. Literally live decoding it. Posting this because I'm honestly really proud of the fact that I managed to figure out all of it on my own ngl

*Ahem!*

So...

This is it.

It appears I have reached

an end.

All that time

All that progress.

Gone in an instant...

But it doesn't have to be.

Here in this place, feelers

prod out at reality.

Time and space become

irrelevant.

In a way, the project has succeeded.

I'll need a body.

A vessel.

All one needs

to do is

reach out and

Take one.

#:D!!!!!#I started with figuring out the open mailbox was a period and then I figured out the open hand was likely the letter i based on the two #letter words and how both of them started with the same letter. then I figured out 'this' and it clicked. and i was like 'oh shit. I'm #casually just decoding a cypher completely on my own rn and it's actually working-- hold the fuck on--'#getting 'progress' first try was fcuking cracked of me. I should not have gotten that one nearly as easily as I did.#ironically the word thag tripped me up the most was 'But'. that one actually caused me to bust out the notepad and start listing out the #letters I know vs the ones I don't. it honestly fucking stumped me for a second. and then I realized that theres TWO DIFFERENT CROSS SYMBOLS #BITCH-- OUGH!!!!! /pained #closed mailbox vs open mailbox also makes all the difference between a period and comma. thumbs up for C vs thumbs down for D.#left pointing hand for E right pointing hand for F #:( face for L :) face for J :| face for K #wait a second... I see the pattern... huh. never knew wingdings was based in any sort of system. didn't know there was order to this madness #two for A three for B thumbs up for C thumbs down for D point left for E point right for F etc etc-- they're grouped!!#they have a lil buddy system type thing going on!! ough thats neat!!!#anygay-- yippee I know wingdings now!!! :D

Quick doodle before shutting my brain off for the rest of the night.

This was the first thing I thought of when I read this interview…

the dastardly curve has harmed me once more

#rbing this because it's true for pretty much all skills. especially the more difficult ones.#I've been consistently practicing pool for about 3-ish months now #and I've been noticing the same pattern. sure- the skill level is more objective cuz you can keep track of how many games you're winning-#but the same type of curve still happens. and during the skill plateaus where the equivalent to the observation curve (comprehension) is #improving it can feel like your playing skills are regressing. they aren't- you're just gaining the confidence to try something new #trying to apply a skill you saw someone else do. you're not good at the new thing yet but if you keep going your overall talent will improve #or at least-- that's how I feel about it. I see someone swerve the cue ball around obstacles and suddenly I'm missing every other shot.#I wonder why that is... total mystery... couldn't have anything to do with me trying to swerve the cue ball every other shot right??? hmmm..#nahhhh. I bet it's just my stroke. I'm just overthinking it. Totally.#but fr last week I was on a ROLL!! this week I was taking like-- 45 minutes per game (usually they go a bit faster-- especially if you're #playing well lol)#all this is to say that the times where you're in a low spot is actually the best time to keep going. if you're objectively fucking up the #basics then it's a perfect opportunity to refine them. get used to playing the game on hard mode #and suddenly normal difficulty will feel effortless.#hope my point is clear lol. you got this! patting you on the head! remember to take breaks-- especially if you're getting frustrated #and overwhelmed #you gotta be present enough to focus. only thing you'll learn by being careless is how to be careless.#deep breath. you got this. keep at it my friend. you'll feel like the God Of Art (or whatever skill) in no time. I promise you.

I think a lot of the appeal of whump is the pain being obvious. Whumper tortures whumpee and the reader feels their pain. Caretaker sees the aftermath and sees their pain. A friend long after the trauma sees a panic attack and it's obvious something's happened.

You don't talk about the things that cause you pain, because you feel like it would bring down the mood. But whumpee can't hide it, can't be blamed for showing it, and is always either met with more violence (the reader sees the violence, acknowledges the pain) or comfort, sympathy and help from caretakers and friends. That's part of why I like it, at least.

best trope and you can fight me over it (i abuse this so hard with my ocs)

alternatively

#jinx is the second one. I realized very early on that because a core part of her character is that she's always smiling and carefree-#the moment that smile drops is the moment your stomach will too. and i do abuse this knowledge >:)))

Guy who never feels like his problems are “bad enough” to be taken seriously: what if I hurt the character so horrifically that everyone around them could not possibly deny the severity of their pain even if the character themself tries to downplay it.

#i'm in this post and I don't like it /ref

whump-until-wretched

Living weapon Whumpee in training made to hallucinate and being forced to kill "Caretaker" over and over and over again until they don't question it anymore. At first they keep refusing, of course, and after being made to commit the act, sob for hours. But as weeks and months go by, the long hours of resistance and bargaining turn into minutes, the weeping into few silent tears, and finally, as soon as "Caretaker" walks into the room again, Whumpee picks up the knife, knowing their purpose, and the only way out.
