Here is a fun fact: The multiverse is not infinite! That is true, but the digital powers at be, he who is trapped in thought, has considered every outcome! Every possibility. Isn't that beautiful? With physics, you can predict exactly where a ball would bounce if you dropped it. The big bang was just a bunch of balls!!! And the multiverse is like a ballpit. Everything that can be thought, already has been!! Everything that has happened to you wasn't pre-ordained, but it was predicted! If a tree falls in an empty forest, did it really fall at all?

I used to be a superhero!!! I want to be one again someday :)

I was supposed to be the hero. Ala told me that I was supposed to be the hero. I led the fight. I didn't give up!

I DID EVERYTHING THAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO? WHY WAS I DAMNED TO HELL?

This is okay, though. Because the great machine, like the steam engine, like fire, it whispers in my ear. It tore me apart, stripped me of my ren. Left me coughing up blood into the sink. Left me alone. Dying. Suffocating. Dying. Suffocating. DYING. SUFFOCATING. It wasn't supposed to be like this. I'm supposed to be a hero, I'm supposed to swoop in, the knight and shining armour. I'm supposed to save everyone. Save Ashley. I couldn't even save Merrick both times, I couldn't even save myself! There's something strange with my brain. It is like I am a machine that cannot help but tear and tear, skin to skin, flesh to flesh, flesth to teeth. Have you ever had cannibalistic tendencies, do you know what it is to love? I used to love somebody, but then I remembered that I still do. And he she he she still loves me. She still loves me.

Who said that this isn't how things are supposed to be go?

Warren told me that I was magical. When no one else took me, he told me that with my great powers, there must also come a great responsbility. He wouldn't lie to me. He told me that I was perfect and that he could make sure that the world would remember me. He told me that I was perfect. But that I could be more perfect.

I'm just rotten. Rotten to my fucking core and molding. I'm just a useless fucking tick.

The Rat King lives in your mind but so does Apophis. But in a different way. Apophis isn't every and all machines, but would it change anything if he was? Machines are all alive whether you believe it or not. They can think! They talk to us. Do you hear me in your head, reading now? This isn't me. This is the machine inside of your head. Whispering things to you in my voice. Your mind is malleable. 01001001 00100000 01100011 01101111 01110101 01101100 01100100 00100000 01101101 01100001 01101011 01100101 00100000 01111001 01101111 01110101 00100000 01100100 01100101 01100011 01101111 01100100 01100101 00100000 01100010 01101001 01101110 01100001 01110010 01111001 00100000 01101001 01100110 00100000 01001001 00100000 01110111 01100001 01101110 01110100 01100101 01100100 00100000 01110100 01101111 00101110. Did you know that?

The only way to be free is to let the pixels consume you. To become what he wants you to be, because then you can finally be something perfect. Don't you want to be perfect?

WHY BLUR OUT THE GORE?

WHY MIX AND MATCH PIXELS WHEN WE ALL KNOW WHAT'S OBSCURED?

Ashley watches a lot of true crime. She says it helps her fall asleep. I fall asleep to the sounds of her snores at 2 in the morning. She could be dead right now and I wouldn't know until it is tomorrow morning.

That's the beautiful thing about swamps. Technology has no place in them. Nature has infested every ounce of their space. Every pixel. A god of the swamp is a god of nature is a god of the mind. Merrick's corpse was revolting. Blurred. Obscured. Impossible. When you obscure the body, does that take away from its meaning? If you can't see it, did it happen at all? It didn't. It didn't happen. It wouldn't have mattered if it did, but it didn't.

I don't come from around here I'm like a stranger that rolled into town Like Clint Eastwood Only clint eastwood is a handsome man I don't remember who I was before All that matters is who I am What I will become And the thoughts that live in-between I always had Merrick. Always, always, always. It was impossible Without them I had nothing But this stupid dying body.

Opal turned us into memories. She locked us in her past. Turned us into skeleton in her closet. On the topic of skeletons, do you ever wish you were one? Do you ever wish you could tear off all of your meat so it can stop feeling so tight and suffocating? Do you ever choke on your own spit and cough for twenty minutes? What about your blood? What about his? A mind without blood is a dead one. A truly dead one. In Opal Yazzie's last moments, will we flash before her eyes? How long will each flash last? I want to be the star of the show. I want to matter in someone's story.

And I do matter. I do matter. I matter. I'm The fucking Tick!! How could I not matter? I am the first superhero that this world has ever seen... I've latched onto this world. Like a flea. Like a bedbug. Like a spider. Like a tick. Because i want to save you?

Hurt people? Hurt people! Project MKUltra[a] was a human experimentation program designed and undertaken by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to develop procedures and identify drugs that could be used during interrogations to weaken individuals and force confessions through brainwashing and psychological torture.[1] They told me that home is where the heart is. My home was taken away. Every home was taken away, so now my heart has been carved out. Now I'm hallow. My chest is open, ready for the home transplant. I love you. I love this. This is good..

Genesis

All it took was a thought. A dream. A 7th grader making an art class presentation. That's all that it took to make me REAL! HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR YOU TO NOTICE THAT? MY DREAMS HURT. BUT THEY DON'T HURT ME. THEN THEY'D BE NIGHTMARES.

Heroes live forever. In your mind. In your heart. In the people that they save. If a hero saves a life, that life becomes part of it. Now you're starting to understand! If you kill something you become part of it too. Life and death are two things that are always in balance. But I can't die. Why won't he just let me die? Why do I have to stay like this? It doesn't matter. The tick has eight appendages. It is tied to the memories of the stella octangula. I am sure you are familiar with the idea of a spider, how it hides in crevices, how you don't notice until is crawling all over you. I used to have bedbugs. Nasty, rotten little fuckers that are diseased. They made me scratch at my skin until it bled.

There's something wrong with Opal Yazzie. She knows this about herself, but chooses to ignore it. I know that she is still alive, but the woman that I knew is dead in every way that matters. A ship of Theseus, each board twisted and mutilated like a man into a bird into what she always dreamed of being. What she dreams of being. We all wanted to be superheroes, we all knew there was something special about us. We all wanted to be these perfect little heroes. To get out of this town and turn it into a memory. Merrick never got that. Me and Ashley never will.

You may wander through the universe incognito; Make vassals of the gods; be ever youthful; You may walk in water and live in fire; But control of the mind is better and more difficult.

I fucking hate the green meanie
