Brockton's Celestial Forge (Worm/Jumpchain)
- Thread starter LordRoustabout
- Start date
All Confirmed Non-Excluded Available Perks - Repeatable Perks - Perks that appear in more than one Constellation = 65 Clusters containing 75 Perks worth 34600 Points Total to Purchase them all once * 20 Words Per Point = 692000 Words.
Personal Reality Constellation (According to BCF Reference) Contains 55 Clusters that themselves contain 114 Perks (18 of which are Repeatable but since none have been Purchased yet I'll count them for 1 Available Purchase Each) worth 16700 Points Total to Purchase them all once * 20 Words Per Point = 334000 Words.
Combined, if Lord 1.) Purchases no Repeatable Perks from now on and 2.) Doesn't include any currently Excluded Media & 3.) Doesn't add any more Perks to the Forge except what BCF Reference says the Personal Reality Constellation will contain, then he needs to write approximately 1026000 Words if he wishes to complete the Forge before the story ends. If he does Purchase Repeatable Perks more than once (which he will), and he adds Excluded Perks back into the Forge (which he will), and if he adds more Perks to the Capstone Constellation (which he will (maybe)) it could easily spiral into hundreds of thousands more at minimum.

Well, we're over a million words into a worm story and we havent even gotten to the first endbringer fight. Plus to me personally it feels like we just finished the first arc of the story...

An aside: catnip causes something like sexual stimulation... so Tybalt is more likely to simply use it when he can by himself without anyone else having to know.

Catnip might be disracting for him. Bringing it probably is not polite.
And Apeiron distilled catnip... Probably would be classified as a tactical drug (or is that a master power? Cats from Boston running to BB does look like a master power).

Pretty sure you'd need Apeiron-grade bleach to get rid of that image.

I don't, but I could've sworn that I had this water from the River Lethe somewhere. Also, who am I and what were we just talking about?
Oh look, a new fic! And it has over a million words! Time to read it for the first time!

this is bullshit. they've already done Lava Surfing & Giant-Robot Basketball. They've already demonstrated that immunity to an element makes it fair game for a training exercise / relaxation activity with Lava Surfing, and that suped-up Apeiron toys are fair game with giant-robot basketball. Super-paintball as a tactical exercise has Got to be around that level.

Super Paintball was judged to be a poor choice. Apparently even with replacing the paintballs with tactical grenades with kilotons of TNT in capacity, the explosions couldn't even begin to mar the finish on everyone's equipment nor did anyone notice the impacts. Apeiron Clone is currently judging if FTL explosives will do the trick.

How about Paintball with Prismatic Laboratory colored paints?
Shit can I get some of that? Always being able to reread a story as though it was the first read through sounds had-damn amazing
I've been trying to figure out where everyone is sitting at the table. Based on the clues this is what I've figured out.
Gru -> Uppercrust -> Coil or Coil -> Uppercrust -> Gru
And
Kaiser -> Faultline ->Apeiron -> Blasto -> Skidmark -> Saint
Trickster isn't mentioned next to anyone in the chapter but based on it saying that Kaiser isn't next to Gru or Coil we probably slot him in next to Kaiser which leaves the only ambiguity the positions of Gru and Coil since we only know that they are next to Uppercrust.

Ah, sitting between a strong woman fighting for a minority and a foreign looking guy, Kaiser's day keep getting better and better
BTW, Joe could just lock away The Butcher, right? Not curing or healing her is always an option.
And thinking about it, if someone figures out that he "modded" the kiddies' bodies using Weld Alloy, would't people start throwing "Apeiron Ultimate Keikaku!" acusations again?

If people learned he actually got something useful out of Weld (heh), the reaction would be more like "his knowledge is terrifying, either his scanning technology is more advanced with regards to power analysis than we believed--which was already pretty high since it has to be advanced enough to completely reconstruct human bodies from traumatic damage and modify non-standard biology, or we have so many leaks about our own heroes' power observations that he barely needed to do any eyes on analysis for himself".Ah, sitting between a strong woman fighting for a minority and a foreign looking guy, Kaiser's day keep getting better and better

One implies a great amount of competence in Apeiron, and the other a great deal of incompetence in the Protectorate's information security (among all the other things).
Given everyone's game plan for Apeiron involves inflating the sense of the former and downplaying the latter, I think you know the likely results to learning all of them have Weld's Manton Favorability applied to their bodies.

It happens but nobody could quite remember how the Irrigo Paintball fights turned out.

Apeiron: I've been informed that "I do, in fact, have clarketech scanners" is a better answer to this question than "I don't read classified PRT information, but my daughter does".
Where did you get this bit? I don't think this ever came up in Worm, did it?

Eh, it's a good standard cutout name for a President of the United States in fiction.
Really? What's wrong with good old Obama?

It's a bit harder that just putting the Butcher behind bars, because she have a (short-range) teleport. But yes, that's certainly an option.
(That's how Butcher XV is defeated in canon)
Oh, that's easy. According to the mayor interlude :
So yeah, the Protectorate's information security is legendary for how bad it is.

I meant more "just cryo her" that just putting her behind bars.
And saying that she was "trapped" is a great understatement of what happened to her in canon
Thinkers: Daughter? Does he have a time traveling daughter!? Keikaku! Everything is his master keikaku!
You know, I wonder if Thinker Shards sometimes think that their users are just dumbasses, not in the "inferior meat person" kind of way, but in the "why do 5 years olds like to eat glue" kind of way. Or maybe "pomeranian barking at a mastiff" kind of way.
What makes you wonder that? Far as I can tell, Tattletale's shard doesn't seem to make any judgements on her intellect.
