We don't want people on the streets bowing down in worship of Dragon's beauty. We have enough people doing that for Survey.
Brockton's Celestial Forge (Worm/Jumpchain)

The best part of that is that they haven't yet seen her go all-out wrath-of-the-goddess glowing three different colours, hair waving in an intangible wind, and smiting the unworthy. Then they really will start worshipping her – Joe better get some Mantra-tech upgrades ready for that…
But as for Dragon… yeah, better not do an Apeiron Special; Lethe can do it instead. Ably assisted by the Matrix.
"What, you didn't realise she was my apprentice?"
Colin: (clutches his chest in shock)
Colin: "Error! Armsmaster.exe not found!"
Colin: (faints)
?!?!The Matrix is non-gendered. If you recall Uppercrust's correspondence. "Do you prefer to be referred to as male or female?" "No thank you."
Dragon is best girl and Armsmaster doesn't deserve her, not even close. Joe should get a harem, if someone can make it possible and functional its him.
Has Joe realised that Uppercrust apparently intuitively understands Garment? Both when he made the offer at her shop and when she greeted him at the gala, he responded verbally as though he was just continuing an ordinary conversation….
Edit: I only ask in case he suddenly finds himself unaccountably jealous, should Uppercrust give Garment that forcefield necklace. Like who is this guy giving my girl jewellery?

I'm pretty sure most people get the gist of what Garment says, maybe it's that and not willing to appear bad like he's in habit for doing?
Yeah, but only the gist, and people like Flechette still pause to interpret Garment's gestures before responding, while Uppercrust is just responding correctly as though she spoke English. Or like he can hear Joe's narrations at least.

Flechette understand the gist of it in the same way that people see the tiniest gesture as affection and an excuse to ship characters.
Well yes, that too but Kid Win was also picking up on actual content… just not all of it by a long shot.

I disagree. Armsmaster is a genuinally heroic man that try to do good. Considering Worm is full of jerkass, Dragon could land much worse. Yes, he's flawed, autistic, or at least overfocused on his job and bad at interracting with other humans, but those are not deal breakers in a relationship (and make for a more interesting character).
At the start of the story, he was also a glory hound, but he took a humility pill with Apeiron.
This reminds of those videos where the wife shows their husbands the positive pregnancy test and the dude sticks it in his mouth like a thermometer.
More than one video I might add.
Only partially and he isn't as good a person as he became in canon as per wog and can be seen by the whole would have had Kid Win steal dust from Garment during the charity event despite knowing how it can react to being touched if there was any way she wouldn't notice. That said it isn't like Dragon is flawless either in canon the fandom just likes to ignore all the shady things she does the biggest of which would probably be her allowing a gang to spread a virus that allowed them to remotely control devices so that when she took them down she could take it over herself to tap their processing power and expand her info network.

Uppercrust has been described as a master in social interaction, power plays and an extremely observant bright man. He is accustomed to read hundreds of non verbal cues from people. He would be one of the best people to understand Garment's "language"

Didn't Armsmaster schedule Dauntless to have to chose between work and being with his kid?
He was a bad person before becoming Defiant. He has gotten his humility pill from Aperion but still hasn't gotten the am I the baddie moment needed for the solidification of that recent arc.

What I'm hearing is that armsmaster must suffer more to achieve the required character development to become cool.
maybe let him get truth'd during the inevitable alchemy incident, that way he gets his cool robot limb and gets to be psychoanalzyed by god.

Thanks for sharing link.
I haven't read all of Lord's WOG's. I am not on the discord and I mostly stick to SufficientVelocity (not AO3).
Lord has written an incredible amount of material. I can't comprehend how he isn't a hunchback with the world's worst case of carpal tunnel syndrome by this point.
War and Peace famously clocks in at 587,287 words. The stats page lists BCF at 1.9 million words as part of story. How many cumulative words has Lord put out between the actual story, his author's notes, and his many many responses to readers?

Lord Roustabout has perks from the Efficiency and Time constellations, obviously.
He just has the celestial forge, not just the perks. It explains all the delays in him dealing with a large new perk. It also explains his switch to biweekly, as he now has to follow more abstract requirements in order to make the chapters as high quality as all his perks allow.
I'd say it's more about general safety you see there's a Wildbow wog that in canon worm if Colin had learned about Dragon being an ai too soon as in before his the s9 wants you slap in the face he would have gone down a dark road treating Dragon as a tool and a resource for his benefit over a person and from bcf lord wog he hasn't developed out of that quite yet.
Of course it's also fairly academic as on the next in story day or the one after the nine will have gotten close enough to the bay for Joe to stop them (in modern conditions they are around 6 hours of travel by car from the area the bay is in but the nine will take long due to going by lorry, stealth, prep and distractions). Following that the forge will then go around undoing things like the grey boy bubbles and Dragon has basically been waiting for Apeiron to appear to throw herself at his mercy and hope he undoes her chains so he probably won't have chains to use.

The Armsmaster at the start of the story might have tried human transmutation (for glory !), but the current Armsmaster knows enough about ApTech to not attempt it.
Dragon's chain have been waiting for Apeiron to appear to try to kill him.
