  1. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    Taylor and Ending must have had a little giggle over even the thread topic, considering that the last of the 3 Blasphemies died through the use of explosives. So within a very short sequence, there were 3 of them, then 2, then 1, then BOOM It might have been even funnier, had all of them...

    That would depend on the specific state's 'open records' laws. If I recall correctly, in many states, arrests aren't either automatically made public, on the premise that a person who is arrested might not even be charged, or if charged, may be innocent of the charges. This way, the reputation...
  3. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    It's almost as though the story is written in a world-setting driven by irrational conflict drives!
  4. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    What Tori and her 'goddess' apparently fail to realize is that PtE already knows about their attitudes about Atropos. I think PtE is being deliberately cagey about letting Taylor know, since the opponents have a similar sort of threat-map, and by keeping Taylor unaware, the targets are bringing...
  5. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    I'd imagine it happens because people are reluctant to acknowledge their own mortality, even when making plans, for either their own unexpected death, or the objective nearing completion. In the second case, the planner expects to be around and supervising the task, and thus would be able to...
  6. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    If you look at it right, her own cape-name was a cry for help. It seems that traditionally, damsels need serious help, more commonly known as rescuing, or saving from their situation. It's good to see that she got that help in a way that doesn't make her feel vulnerable or dependent on a...
  7. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    I'm delighted to see that I'd assembled the cues given in the story correctly, and actually a bit surprised that others haven't commented on the same conclusions. Feel free to quote my earlier comment on other forums or websites.
  8. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    All Endbringers were dealt with at Canberra, shortly after the destruction of the Simurgh. One thing that Atropos did was to get Eidolon to be very firm in his desires for the Endbringers to not hurt anyone, before he agreed to have his powers neutralized to stop them. With his intentions...
  9. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    I'm actually not making that assumption. The tendency so far, though, has been for prompt posts after the removal of targets. The first several happened at midnight, establishing the norm for her midnight postings. However, when she took out the S9, her post was promptly afterward, as was her...
  10. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    It might seem 'spur of the moment' from not being posted about at Atropos' early traditional posting time of almost immediately after midnight. On the other hand, there's plenty of examples of her having non-midnight announcement posts.
  11. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    I can't wait to see the PHO segment for this one. Another one that's likely to seem 'spur of the moment', considering Atropos's established habit of midnight announcements. I imagine in a lot of cases, there are going to be people suddenly saying "WTF was I doing/THINKING?" Then finding out...
  12. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    For people speculating on the stupidity of the Fallen, remember that so far as THEY know, the only Endbringer to have actually been KILLED by Atropos is the Simurgh. Leviathan was last seen in a high-speed retreat to the ocean after Atropos pointed The Power of Friendship at him and told him...

    For instance, it could achieve the application of 'max strength' by causing a higher proportion of the muscle fibers to contract at the same time, before trading off to the next set of muscle fibers, effectively trading potential longer-lasting effort for higher instant effect. If the effort...
  14. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    She's just engaged his delusions of fantasy royalty, and given him a full day to pull all his forces together which will incidentally make sure that the first viral contagion hits practically all his troops/minions/toys and such. When she comes back in a day, I'd guess that she's going to want...
  15. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    Hmmm, do warnings from Danny count as warnings from Atropos? If so, Taylor could teleport to where they guys sleep, and drop a polite note on them to let them know that warning number two has just been delivered, along with a neatly done signature. If some of her general statements online can...

    With that many members, that was the House of Representatives, not the Senate. There are 100 Senators, two from each state, while each state has Representatives based on the population of the state. The Senate and the House of Representatives are branches of the Congress. When both bodies...
  17. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    It looks like the current membership of the House of Representatives just got a direct reminder that FA:FO is a VERY real situation and consequence pairing. If they FA, they're gonna FO! For the acronym-challenged. FA:FO stands for Fuck Around: Find Out. The question rises in my mind...
  18. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    So, I guess Atropos just gave May her Marching orders.
  19. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    Meanwhile, attending members of the Elite who happen to possess pattern recognition as a skill start making plans on what to do once Bastard Son's announced suicide occurs. Suicide by cape. I'd almost think that in Earth Bet's more recent insurance actuarial tables, it's a lesser used, but...
  20. A Darker Path [Worm Fanfic]

    It looks like Ravager... I mean, Ravioli, is going to be a prime example of how Atropos can show more than just murderous irony or lethal efficiency in her deadly anti-heroism. And I'm really looking forward to the PHO reactions to Atropos' video, as well as the security camera footage of...
