All Things Devoured (Worm/DeadSpace)

Reader mode
[X] Wards Commons. Do your homework there, see if anyone is willing to distract you from it.
[X]Yes (Conditional: Request a formal testing chamber from Director Piggot. Note that biomass shed from you in significant amounts will make an effort to run off and do...something, and you're curious what. The room will need to be: Airtight, sterile, well-monitored, have a HEAVY decontamination airlock, and require some pretty toasty M/S protocols for anyone who, for whatever reason, wants to go in or out. A way to send material into the room without actually exposing anyone outside of it would also be neat.)
-[X] Note: You don't expect this today or tomorrow or next week, you are just curious about how bad it'd be if it did happen and want some kind of protocol in place for if/when it does.
 
It kills me that even after the vote was called and the story froze for more than half a year people are still voting for the PRT to contain Taylor indefinitely a la SCP Foundation.
Nothing against wanting to be a hero, though, I get it. It just feels like being a hero would be more predicated on not using Taylors scarier, Nilboggy powers (overtly).

It actually kind of annoys me. The entire point of this quest has been, unabashedly, that Taylor will have a Bad End.
Between the psychological torture and eventual eating of Emma, the gradual distancing of Danny, and Taylor's worsening bonds with the Wards no matter what votes are taken, it's been made abundantly clear that this isn't going to end in happy fun times.
And everyone's like 'no, no, we can keep this wreck afloat and not have it end in tears.'
Sometimes stories end with the villain winning. Sometimes the monster isn't slain. Sometimes it's satisfying for everything to go belly up. And I feel like it's a big disservice to the concept of 'Taylor is a Necromorph' to try to avert that.
Besides, I've been excited for this to go bad since it started.

But that's my opinion, be it ever so humble.

We can at least TRY to pull it off. And believe you me, the world will be better off after that than it would be if we just dived straight into the evils.

I reiterate my earlier statement: I want the 'Taylor eats everyone' end.
We've already avoided diving straight into evil, and things are coming to a head. I really want Taylor to embrace the whole 'convert every living thing into biomass and become a giant flesh-moon.' Not sure how anything can be 'better off' after that, unless you think that being part of the whole is good. In which case, yeah!

Ya' know, how about we just drop this line of discussion. I'm not very good at debates and it seems we're starting to go around in circles.

To provide an alternative subject; anyone got any ideas for Omakes? And/or know where the term originated from?

Dark Lord Blasto and his Dark General Damsel of Distress, Mad Scientist Duo Uber and Leet, and Mysterious Spymaster Circus embark upon an Evil plan to flood the market with cheap knockoff necromorphs and only Taylor with her brave band(arbitrarily limited to four at a time, Taylor must always be a member, they each level individually so if one gets left out they are going to be useless unless they are power-levelled, and can only choose from Taylor, The Wards, or a single poor-stats-but-customisable necromorph named Emma's Ghost) can stop them!

This is what comes of not specifying "good" ideas.

Omake is a loan word from Japanese that means something along the lines of bonus or extra. It was originally brought over by the anime nerd crowd because sometimes anime and manga have little extra side skits at the end of a chapter or episode.

A) Thanks and B) Holy Snickerdoodles does English have a lot of loan words! In fact, I'm pretty sure that it's pretty much the Frankenstein's Monster of languages by now.

Yeah, I know. That's why I didn't specify that.

English is what happens when an innocent island is lured into a dark alley and violently molested by a succession of progressively meaner and meaner languages until it grew up, built an impenetrable navy, and proceeded to club innocent foreign languages over the head to rifle through their pockets for spare grammar.

Pfhahahahahahahahaha! This! This is the sort of non/un-sensicle idiot humour that helps keep me going!
 
I was actually just thinking of this story. Read it a couple months ago. And usually quests arent my cup of tea. But this one is done wonderfully. I for one, welcome the storm
