Spades was never good at the subtlety part of things. Whenever he gets involved, stealth tends to go clean out the window.

Doesn't matter too much when you're built like he is, though.
Also watch out, seems he's got his optics on you.

You ever stare at something you're about to post and think 'yeah this is going to make a few people explode'?

I'm getting that feeling right now.

He might be sizable and have strength to spare...But he's fluffy!

Fun fact: I had a reaaaally old bird guy named Stryker. He's back now! Complete with a new shape and a new look. Quite proud of how the redux turned out!

So you're scared. You're confused. You're alone. Your brain didn't quite work right before and it still doesn't now. There are things trying to kill you. You don't know where you are. The world you knew is gone.

You're going to be doing everything you can to make sense of it, even if that's wrong.

It also frustrates me that everyone overlooks that these neural scans are 1:1 neural scans. They copy over everything about the person. Their ups and their downs, especially. Someone that got scanned with a brain injury or a mental disorder will retain those quirks. It doesn't cure them.

A lot of people like to say "Well Simon's an idiot so."

I wager: You just woke up in a place you don't know, your body is a reanimated corpse, and it isn't yours, you've been dead for a long time, everyone else is dead, and most things 'alive' are trying to kill you.

Stay calm and focused in that.

Let's be honest, a pervert and an evil super-AI mingling is exactly how you start getting some wildly deviating shifts in chassis design.

And I'm ALL for it. 😈

And I'll say with ever-bubbling enthusiasm that you are still very much on my bucketlist to get something from when circumstances and finances permit me to do so!

It's really funny because one of the times I watched it with other people and werewolves came up they were like "ugh they're probably just going to do a big hairy humanoid again."

When we got to the reveal they started hooting and hollering.

The paranormal and the technological have mixed. The results, as anyone may be able to expect, are...Fascinating, to say the least.

Say hi to Zaitzev, coming soon to a reality-ending paradox near you. He's eager to make friends.

So on a scale of 1 to 10 how much does Gideon like making out with other dragons. Asking for a friend.

Personal opinion: Technology and the paranormal can, and should mix together in design.

Just think of all the wonderful, terrifying, interesting, and otherwise unusual things you could pull from something like that!

Don't know what I'm getting at?

Don't worry, you will. ☺️
