Then War Of The Spark Happened

Now i’m not smart but i think there’s definitely also something to be said about Doctor Mother and her relationship with Fortuna

as you said an 8 year old killed god, is completely separate from her family and life has one connection whose first thought is, we need to kill god

Doctor Mother was her one guiding light her one connection and all the sudden she’s just gone, the woman who more or less instructed Fortunas every action just dead

now as i said i’m not smart but i’m sure there’s something here

Fortuna my beloved... she's such a compelling character I wish we had more of her. She was like 8 when she killed a god and learned the world was going to end. 8 years old when she got the power to do anything she wants, except it's never enough to solve the one problem she cares about. 8 years old when she left behind everything she knew for a battle that seemed completely hopeless, and in the end she hardly mattered despite all the parts of herself she threw away for the cause. Some (bad) fics portray her as a complete dumbass, someone who can't even walk without her power, and frankly I want to throw rocks at them because no! That's not her! She's still a person without her power, but I don't think she knows who that person is. It's something we see so often through worm, a character spends so much time with the mask on that they hardly exist when it's off, and using her power is the mask for her. She doesn't know what she would enjoy for recreation, what music she'd like, she doesn't know what it's like to have a friend that she talks to with the mask off because the mask is glued to her face by this point, and it's heartbreaking. After Scion dies, she's left to realize that she doesn't need her mask anymore, but there's barely anything left underneath. She's done so much horrible shit and stopped caring about herself or others in the name of the goal she set to save the world, and now when she tries to figure out who she is there's nothing of Fortuna left, only Contessa.

And all of this lines up with Taylor, they're so so similar in every way, which is what makes the final conversation in 30.7 so heartbreaking. Fortuna wants to know if it was worth it, if there's anything left of Taylor in there, because she's wondering the same questions about herself and desperately wants answers. Because what do you do when all your life was for nothing? When you've thrown away your humanity to be a speck in the grand scheme of things? How do you move on and find yourself without letting the guilt tear you apart once you let yourself feel something again?

fuck this

hey @the-familiars-union can i join you

You’re all probably wondering why I’ve gathered you all here…

It has come to my attention that I have too many apprentices (followers). The doors have been locked, all your magic has been sealed, and there is only one way out.

In order to leave, you must kill at least one other person here. You might be wondering “how? You just said we can’t use magic.” Well, fist fight. There’s also some weapons scattered around this enormous room.

Have fun!

hey guys why are you building a gi

[image ID: Text reading Texas State Aquarium staff stated that the animals have been getting a little restless. One of the employees had an idea to let some of the land animals spend time with some of the sea animals, and it has worked out brilliantly.

Putting the sloths near the dolphins was the biggest surprise of all. The dolphins are absolutely delighted with the sloths, and the sloths, normally very quiet animals, have been squeaking replies back to the dolphins for hours at a time. Who would have guessed these two species would be such a great match?

There is a photo of two dolphins in a large pool, their heads peeking out above the water to look at a brown sloth, who is hanging on a branch. End ID]

I think (and i’m probably dumb) it’s supposed to be he splits the timeline then in one he leads into doing the coinflip and if he gets it right he follows it, in the other he delays and doesn’t flip so if he gets it wrong he just never flipped and he flips later, but the might be wrong and make less sense

IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE that coils power was able to make a coin flip the same every single time. he can only use 2 universes theres a 50% chance it’s gonna be heads. in his 2 universes theres only a 25% chance that one of the two flips will be heads. he gets double luck but theres no reason why it wouldnt be tails in both universes yeah. that doesnt make sense

So. Here we are then.

Stellar Firma means a lot to me and I'm honoured to have been able to experience it as it happened. I've met some of the most amazing people through it and been involved in projects I never would have imagined. I'm going to miss new weekly episodes but I'm so excited for bonus content and whatever the bros have planned.

May the board preserve and keep you, fellow citizen-employees.
