A Worm in the Gulch (Worm/Red vs. Blue)

I always forget how terrifying caboose actually is, thank God he's a dumbass
Someone so idiotic that God decided to counterbalance it with immense strength.

As Tucker puts it, "it's god's way of compensating".

Isn't he dumb because his brain went without oxygen for several minutes pre canon in some incident?

The show offered two different explanations for why Caboose is, well, Caboose. The first is that Caboose was already simple and Omega and Church screwing around in his head just made it worse. The second is that Caboose's armor went into armor lock and he the lack of oxygen damaged his brain. Personally, I'm leaning toward both in that the armor lock is why Caboose is simple when we first see him, and the aftereffects of Omega and Church's actions in his mentalscape just made things worse.
 
PSA: Pat Reon Poll and Royal Road stuff
Hey guys. I'm spreading this news to this story, Phantom, and Devil Trigger. Next chapter for this story and Phantom is in the works, so please be patient.

First is in regards to Pat Reon. I am hosting a new poll, asking my readership which new story they would like to see. If you want more details, check out my Pat Reon page HERE. I have no idea whether you need to be a Supporter on the page to actually vote, but if you need to be one and you don't wanna be (Supporters pay $5 a month. I'm a cheap bitch), just tell me what story you guys wanna see me write out. The poll ends on April 4, 2024.

Secondly, I have a brand new original work on Royal Road! If you have the time and enjoy my work, please check out A Saga of Ashes, a dark fantasy story where a soldier is brought back from the death by a witch for the sake of revenge.

There's also that most of his Cabooseness doesn't show up until after he kills Church for the first time, that might have broke him and then before he could recover they messed around in his head.
 
...sooooooooo.

Anybody seen Restoration yet? Because, ah... Yeeeaaah, I have no fucking idea whether that's gonna be part of this story.
 
It was good but I think it shouldn't matter with the story you are telling. With taylor there things change drastically. She is a meteor thrown into the stream that is the original storyline/timeliness.

The world has changed with her presence.
 
Than what's Restoration?

Restoration is the nineteenth and final season of RvB, as well as Rooster Teeth's last main project after Warner Bros. Discovery closed its doors in March. It retcons the Shisno Paradox and Zero as "simulations" Epsilon runs, hoping he can find something to prepare the Reds and Blues. To my understanding, it was originally supposed to be a proper season, but it was changed into a feature length film.

Oh, and Burnie Burns and Matt Hullum return as writer and director respectively.

Wait, I thought Epsilon died? Did they retcon Chorus?
 
Only the ending. I won't spoil anything, but the AI Fragments Epsilon created at the end of the trilogy play an important role.

I'd advise watching the Prologue and Official Trailer. Here, I'll post links to the vids.

Wait, was everything after season 13 just a simulation by Epsilon? What the fuck?

Seems like it. It's a clever retcon, I'll admit. That said, the film also suggests the events of Restoration may also be a simulation, though never made clear.

On that note, when I inevitably get back to this story, DO NOT SPOIL RESTORATION IN THIS THREAD. I would rather not spoil people who have not seen the movie, if it's all the same to everybody else.
