As A Community We Need To Come Up W Sillier Ways For Noir To Interact W Modern Technology. Like Being

I think Dead by Daylight should add a new killer that is literally just a normal regular gorilla. I think adding a gorilla would be a perfect addition to dbd. You shouldn't even have to hook survivors as the gorilla, its whole thing should be that if the survivors look the gorilla directly in the eye you get to instantly beat the shit out of them until they die

I cannot stress enough that it cannot be a monster gorilla in any way. No understandable dialogue, No like nasty flesh monster bits, its head doesn't split open into a big mouth like a Venus Flytrap, like that's cool but you can save that for the other killers. I need this new killer to be an entirely normal regular gorilla that just kind of showed up one day and doesn't interact with the primary gameplay loop at all

Do you see my vision

tell me more about miguel and how they did him dirty

Miguel O'Hara aka Spider-Man 2099 was a part of the 90s Marvel effort to create future and edgy heroes for the 1990s. There were heroes like Doctor Strange 2099 and Hulk 2099, but Spider-Man 2099 is the only one who kept any real interest past the 1990s.

His origin comics were the first three issues of his 1992 run. We open with Spider-Man of the future! He's cool, in a black and red suit (yes the inking just looks off, it was originally black and red.) In the year 2099, Alchemax, the company everyone remembers from Into the Spiderverse, owns nearly everything. Including the cops. The police are no longer state owned, but instead owned directly by the corporation itself. It's also implied very early on that the US government in 2099 is ALSO owned by Alchemax.

Pictured above is Miguel O'Hara.

Lyla, Miguel's holo-agent (who he did NOT make but that's the least of our Spiderverse woes at this point) plays messages for him. It's quickly understood Miguel doesn't communicate, likes to isolate and ignores his problems until he HAS to deal with them.

We find out later in the comic that this man, Tyler Stone, has seemingly drugged Miguel with a drug called Rapture, an incredibly addictive future drug that binds to your DNA and it's impossible to lose the addiction. Tyler drugs Miguel because after all of the really awful scientific experiments and inhumane things Tyler's made Miguel do at Alchemax, Miguel decided to quit. But Stone doesn't want Miguel to leave the company, so he drugs him.

Later, muuuuch later, we find out this guy is his biological dad.

Pretty awful stuff.

This guy is Gabriel O'Hara, Miguel's half-brother. He doesn't trust Alchemax or any of the genetic experimentation they've got going on. He knows his brother is involved, and he doesn't want his brother involved anymore. It's interesting to note that Gabriel, after telling his brother how disappointed he is in him, says he still loves him. But Miguel doesn't want to hear that (super well-adjusted not depressed man here, you see) and turns it off.

Miguel in the comics is a geneticist and studies biology. He famously doesn't do well with technology. And so what solution does he find to his drug problem? Biology.

(You can see how saying he's an unnatural Spider is going to start being a problem. At least, depending on what your definition of the word "natural" is.)

In the comic, we flashback a bit to pre-Spider-Man 2099 times to figure out exactly how Miguel got like this.

Miguel is the head of the Genetics Division of Alchemax and isn't exactly the most popular guy around (he's very self-entitled and self-assured). The entire purpose of their project is to recreate Spider-Man in the year 2099, to become the perfect lapdog to Alchemax to keep the city in "order."

Miguel O'Hara at this point is pretty much the worst of the worst, tbh.

Sure, Miguel wants to genetically recreate Spider-Man. But they aren't ready for human subjects, and Tyler Stone and his co-worker Aaron Delgato (actually kind of important for later) push ahead on the project. Long story short, their test subject dies and Miguel quits.

Tyler doesn't like that so he drugs him.

Miguel doesn't want to be addicted to Rapture the rest of his life, or at Tyler Stone's mercy either, so he decides to try to rewrite his genetic code to get rid of the Rapture addiction.

Delgato, who hates Miguel, was also still in the lab, and decided to rewrite his DNA even further to put him as half a spider. His intention was to kill him, but Miguel survives and becomes genetically half-man, half-spider.

Across the Spider-Verse seems to directly go against this both with whatever drug Miguel is injecting into his system and the fact they say he cannot shot organic webs, but instead tech-based ones. This would lead us to assume his talons and fangs are also a result of his "Spider" potion.

When in reality, Miguel now permanently has fangs, and has to mumble whenever he talks to loved ones. He CAN retract his talons, but only if he's actively thinking about it. He shoots organic web out of the top of his wrists. Those fangs? He can paralyze people with them, just like a spider bite could.

So with more and more confirmation that this adaptation of Miguel is not "really" a spider, it shows how little time they took to look in his comics.

It's concerning as well because it seems as if the only backstory they want for him is the made-for-the-movie daughter, and not his brother (pictured above), his mother or even Dana or Xina, two of his love interests/childhood best friend in Xina's case. It shows us that there many not have been any research into the character besides seeing that he can be a "scary" adversary to Miles.

I'm also going to link a previous post I made about Miguel and Gabriel's home life and domestic abuse that directly impacts how Miguel interacts in his world, and probably how he engages with the other Spiders. If it was at all discussed.

THIS!!! THIS!!!! Durge and Wyll are so cute and so poetic anD IT NEEDS TO BE SAID MORE!!!

aside from everything else about durgewyll I am loving how it highlights wyll and gortash as narrative foils. both their upbringings lead them to interact with demoniac entities, both can only become archdukes and join baldurian high society through uldred, both are swaying the dark urge from simply following bhaal (and arguably the dark urge sways them from simply pursuing an ideal and the dark urge can recognise both as their equal) and by playing your card right in act 3 wyll just...gets everything gortash was trying to get? wyll really is a hero saving baldur's gate from the legion of the absolute. wyll influences gortash's favourite assassin into becoming someone they can defeat the netehrbrain together. they can even become archdukes together! ...or they can turn it down and then they can go to he hells to sneak around and have adventures (like gortash and durge used to) and save karlach's life (the same life that is at risk because gortash mindlessly threw it away).

like. it's a lot, wyll and durge can even murder raphael.

Update:

I introduced a Jane Doe/Penny Lamb from Ride the Cyclone AI to Soldier and Spy, and so far it seems like they are friends. They keep complimenting her doll and craftsmanship and she’s just happy to be here.

Anyway I think they’re her dads now or something.

currently hyperfixating so

stupid au where gen loss ranboo somehow escapes and ends up stranded in the middle of New Mexico where a bunch of stupid mercs are fighting

or a Gen Loss/Ride the Cyclone crossover au

with sans it's like... he works by bugs bunny rules, as in his sexuality is whoever it's funniest to kiss at any given moment, except god didn't give him lips so now he's just doing whatever.

I dont care what happens in Season 4 just give me Klaus hargreeves in high heels

I’m SO EXCITED. SO SO EXCITED, you guys.

One of my favorite authors, @alwerakoo just posted their fantastic fic, ‘Dream About Me’.

Did it make me cry? Yes.

Did I also compulsively have the need to draw some rough scenes for the story? Also yes.

[Click on em for better quality]

The things I drew aren’t 100% accurate because good lord my art couldn’t possibly do this fic justice. Just wonderful.

It’s got everything, unreliable narrators, road trips, healing relationships after traumatic events WOOHOO

The story is Leo and Mikey centric but let me be clear, every one of these characters hits the mark with characterization and dialogue and the descriptions of the landscapes in the American West are just ASDOIHAOSIDHOSAHFOISAHFOIASFHOFH WHY ARE YOU STILL READING MY BS GO READ IT

Rated T

i will never forgive popular UT fanon for using chara as a scapegoat in the genocide run and making "sans recognizes them and attacks them on sight regardless of what run they're in" headcanons so pervasive.

mostly because "restless spirit of a long dead child who's obsessed with the concept of cosmic retribution and facing consequences for your actions" + "guy whose job is just that but he treats it on par with his hot dog sidegig" is potentially one of the most hysterical dynamics you could come up with
