After ten thousand years, I'm finally free! Time to conquer Earth Bet!
[X] Keep the last turn and finish up the chapter-in-progress?
As much as I'd like to use the time travel nonsense to justify redoing the last turn, it's time to progress the plot. So I can write new Omakes.
Speaking of which, I really do not want to write the Kelly Omake, so someone, please, stop me.
In point of fact there are a lot of Shards who have low enough conflict drives they can be ignored, as given in Gold Morning when Taylor starts tapping all the people who are neither Heroes, Villains, or Rogues. The Everymen who had powers, and said "Fuck it," to the Cape lifestyle and did their own thing in secret.
Although given the fact the Cycle was supposed to last a few hundred years, it's likely they were supposed to start weak and ramp up, like on Aleph, and that Bet and other Parahuman-Heavy worlds were a result of Cauldron and vials fucking up the schedule by having people trigger and ping of more powerful Shards and thus ramp up their own power.
They don't. In fact, sometimes they're not even a single shard. I'm convinved a lot of Case 53s and broken triggers were screwed up Grab-Bag events because they were just pulling liquid that connected you to Shard willy-nilly from a non-Euclidean mass of flesh and hoping for the best.
There's a 50% chance she's a catgirl on the run from the Nazis and looking to join the ABB.
There's a 50% chance she's not.
We can't be sure until it comes up in story. And I'm sorry. It is my fault.
Also, wasn't Tammi (I always want to call her Tammi Lynn now) originally a member of the Herren Clan and came to the E88 with Victor and Othala? So how could she thing they were a 'necessary evil' when she didn't even joined them, but joined another, associated white nationalism movement after breaking out of juvie? I find it much more likely she didn't want to go back to juvie, or worse, having now gained powers, and joined the Herrens and thus the E88 entirely out of a want to protect herself and avoid teh consequences of her actions, and anything she says later is justifying her actions in a further need to protect herself and avoid teh consequences of her actions by distancing herself from her past.

Really, there's a lot about Worm that kind of just leaves me confused. For example, apparently Browbeat and his Shard get along so well, the Conflict Drive is either inactivate or ignored when it comes to him. Like his forgettableness is kind of such a meme, despite how amazing his power-set logically should be plus the whole Unusual Host/Shard Partnership.

Then there's the Cauldron Vials, I'm kind of convinced they're more Artificial Buds- those ratios shouldn't make sense if they're a direct connection with a single Shard. Granted, Wildbow both kind of implied The Butcher was originally a Cauldron Cape, but also would have existed regardless so...

It has been so long, and re-reading would take a long time- did this involve bodyjacking Night, or was that something else? I recall something where Night got her body taken over by the MC that's a Shard, with the logic she's basically a non-person? Right, somewhat unrelated, how is Rune/Tammi being handled? Cause I've seen some QMs insist she's Purest Evil, despite canonically having a sincere heel-face-turn and having only aligned with the E88 because Worm is a hellhole and being a Teenager thought they were a Necessary Evil cause far as she could tell nobody else was really doing anything useful.
