Digital art comic in greyscale with spots of colour.
Panel 1: Two versions of the author avatar stand next to each other. 
Avatar 1, pointing at the other: "Okay, so... I really want to explain this..."
Avatar 2, looking tired: "...But at the same time it's annoying and I don't wanna, because I've never been able to figure out the right words to describe it clearly."
Panel 2. 
Avatar 2: "So here's *a* way of putting it:"
Panel 3.
A person with two other people on either side of them in thought clouds. Text: "If you're not familiar with plurality, broadly speaking it's when one body houses multiple people." Author Avatar: "I'm not an expert on any of this, so don't quote me."
Panel 4. 3 people with similar hairstyles and very different attitudes stand in spotlights. Text: "The most common depiction in media is multiple separate, distinct personalities." Caption text: "*Not often portrayed realistically or sympathetically, but that's a different conversation."
Panel 5. Multiple faces with different expressions overlapping each other a little. Text: "It *can* work something like that, but it can also be more nebulous. Plurality, like a lot of human brain stuff, is a spectrum."
Author Avatar: "And I'm a lot more on the nebulous end."
Panel 1. Two versions of the author avatar stand beside each other.
Avatar 1: "The plurality term for this kinda thing is "median". In my case, we don't really have distinct "selves" with isolated experiences or memories."
Avatar 2, holding colourful shards: "For me, it's more like overlapping pieces of glass."
Panel 2. Colourful shards overlapping. The shape of a person is traced on them, not quite matching up. 
Text: "Everything kinda lines up to form a single image... but the pieces don't actually all fit together, they can change from moment to moment, and there's a lot of shifting around."
Panel 3. Avatar, looking a little tired: "So yeah, it's incredibly hard to describe. (As evidenced by how quickly that metaphor fell apart.) But the best words I've found for it come from Steven Universe:"
Panel 4: The avatar filled with colours and divided like stained glass, smiling and holding a heart made of multiple pieces. Text: "I am not one person. I am not two people. I am a conversation."
Panel 5: The avatar points to the side, where another man in a sleeveless black hoodie is leaning in to wave.
Avatar: "Also Cal's here."
Cal: "Hi."

on plurality.

I think that one thing people fail to understand is that unsolicited literary criticism coming from an online stranger who is reading with no knowledge of what the authors intended goal is, is not going to be received the same as say: the authors beta reader or friends who know what the authors intended goal and has the sufficient knowledge and input to help the author reach that desired outcome.

"But I'm only trying to be helpful" How do I know you have the knowledge and literary skill for you to be able to actaully do that when we don't know each other and you are essentially a stranger to me? Are you applying this criticism based out of personal biased experience and desire to see the story or characterization be driven in another direction or tweaked, or do you know the author's intentions for the character? If the story is incomplete, are you basing your criticism of a character on the incomplete narration with only partial information available of them or are you building up a report until the story's completion? Did the author provide you with the information needed to make a fully informed criticism?

Have you discussed with the author what their plans are or are you assuming them based off the narration, especially if the narration is proven or implied to be unreliable or missing key points of the plot? Are you unbiased enough to help them reach their desired outcome for the characters and story regardless of your personal feelings towards the characters/antagonists and setting? Can you handle being told your specific input isn't wanted because you're a reader and/or have no written anything relating to their genre or topic? Do you understand and respect that the author's personal experiences might influence their writing and make it different than how you would have done it personally? Do you understand if an author only wants input from a specific demographic relating to their story?

If it's for fanfiction or other hobby media, are you holding a free hobby to a professional standard? Are you trying to give criticism because you feel like the author has produced 'subpar job performance' of their fic? Are you viewing their work as a personal intimate outlet or something that must conform with mass media? Are you applying rules and guidelines when the fic is shared for simple sharing sake? Is your criticism worded appropriately and focused on the parts where the author has requested input on rather than a general dismissal and or disapproval?

Have you put yourself in a place where you assumed you have the input needed for the story to evolve better, or have you asked what the author needs and what they're having trouble with? Can you handle having your criticism rejected if the author decides their story doesn't need the change and not take it as a personal offense against your character? Are you crossing that boundary because you think you are doing the author a favor? Are you trying to be helpful, or do you just want to be?

I think sometimes when people hear authors go 'please don't give me unsolicited writing advice or criticism' they automatically chalk it up to 'this author doesn't want ANY constructive feedback on their stuff at all' and not "i already have trusted individuals who will help me with my writing goals and- hey i don't know you like that, please stop acting so overly familiar with me'

There's an up-and-coming Tech Giant, called Fenton Works, and Batman is determined to prove that the company is a front for a villain.

Danny, after his parents turned from Ghost hunting to being the first official Ghost Anthropologists, decided to repurpose some of their weapons.

And, well, there was a contest being run by Wayne Enterprises; whoever can design a robot that will help the environment got prize money and a grant.

Danny, in all his mechanical engineering prowess, was bored. So he designed a thing. Repurposed the Fenton Guns into a cute robotic tortoise that would clean the beach.

It spiraled from there, and now Fenton Works is the leading name in green technology that's cleaning up the Earth bit by bit. Sea Dragon robots that clean oil and trash from the ocean; beach tortoises that clean the sand and beach and deposit their hoard of trash into designated receptacles that Danny uses as material to make more robots; Cryptid "stalker" robots with long legs that delicately patrol forests to perform "fuel management" and clear out the underbrush to help manage wildfires; moving gargoyle robots that sit on top of skyscrapers to help clean the air with huge sail-like wings, etc.

Basically, Danny pulls a Doctor Elisabet Sobeck, but with less world ending and more actually helping. (Not that the world ending was Elisabet's fault, of course, but different franchise)

And due to the number of times aliens try to attack and rogues send their own robots to attack people, naturally Danny installed self-defense protocols, along with one single golden rule written into the very OS of every single robot; Save Humans Whatever the Cost.

Problem is, Batman has never seen robots like this not be used for evil purposes, and he knows that their power source (a closely guarded Fenton Works secret) is some sort of liquid that glows green.

He really only knows of one liquid that glows green.

So he's determined to find everything he can about Fenton Works, because there's no way that Daniel Fenton isn't actually a villain in the making.

Danny's just thrilled for the chance to work with Wayne Enterprises.

Coming back to this post cause I have a new theory

Servant of Wrath is connected to the K Corp singularity the Tearful Thing too.

In Servant’s breaching form, we see it has many eyes, all red and crying from anger and rage. We didn’t get a clear look, but it’s safe to assume Tearful is in great suffering and pain too.

Their tears/liquid produced are both green.

Now, onto their stories. In the Servant’s lore, it’s one of the magical girls, who befriended a Hermit from another world. Tearful was found by Stephanette. To singularities, we are the aliens, thus, another world.

In one of the Servant’s key page, we see her reading a book with the Hermit. Stephanette used to read the Tearful Thing’s heartfelt stories so it would cry.

Keypage name: Companion

They’re both betrayed by the ones they trust, even if we don’t know what Tearful Thing is thinking, we can assume it also felt a great betrayal.

In LOR, Servant of Wrath is located on Floor of Natural Sciences, and Tearful Thing is a biological being.

Aside from all the similarities, we can also assume the Magical Girls are also tied to other singularities, we just don’t know which ones.

But hey, that’s just a theory!

Can someone infodump about what the lobotomy corp abno’s signify

I wanna know and don’t care about which you you rant about
