Decided To Jump In For The Shit’s And Giggles, Fun Was Had.

Danse & Nick

Danse: When you found out you were a synth... was it hard?

Nick: Why would it be? You are still you. It's who you're, what you were before is what you are now, just you have a few "upgrades"

Danse: Then why can't I cope?

Nick: Because of what you were taught to believe. You were taken in and helped by your one sole purpose in life. It's hard to break away from stuff like that. It's gonna take time you know. It's not easy I'll admit, but once you accept it, it will just become apart of life like there was nothing wrong... Before you knew, I assume life was as it was. You just have some new knowledge now that some people can't cope with. That's the only difference and that's why it's so hard to be who you're. But that's doesn't matter. The only one that matters is you. What you believe and how it makes you feel...

Danse: Wow. Thank you. I feel... hated but maybe-

Nick: I never had a problem with you per say. You were a decent man, you still are. Don't let Maxson do this to you. You are you, you're still an honourable man...

Danse: Maybe.

Nick: What is it about being a synth that makes you less a man than you were before you knew? Before you knew you were still a synth Danse. Before they knew, you were still what you're now. The only difference is that now they know it's pissed them off that one of their bravest Paladins was what they hate. Nothing more... you are still Danse to everyone here and you're a better man for it, trust me.

Danse: I never thought of it that way.

Nick: You're a smart man Danse. You'll figure it out. Besides no matter what happens, there will always be people in this world that accept you. That includes me.

Danse: And I accept you then.

Nick: I know that's a hard thing for you to do...

Danse: No. Not anymore. We're friends. That's what friends do, yes?

Nick: *laughs* Glad to know you're learning.

I don’t even know what to say. Felt that sinking feeling when I first heard the news. Could have a melancholic chuckle from how the fandom always joked that this series would never have an end. We always knew in the back of our minds. Now it’s here. There’s nothing I could say that hasn’t been said already. I just can’t express my absolute adoration to such a beautiful and amazing series with such a wonderful story, art, and memorable characters, even the most minor of them.

Like the thousands of fans of Kentaro Miura’s influential and darkly beautiful work, Berserk. We give all our love and thanks for creating this legendary masterpiece.

Rest well and thank you, Mr. Miura.

i told ya we’ve canceled discourse n we’ve moved on to homesteading skills

Institute Facts According to X6-88

Greed and materialism don’t exist in the Institute. (okay)

The Advanced Systems division had plans for a vehicle like this. It ended up being more trouble than it was worth. (I think this in reference to the submarine)

The Institute’s founders frowned on television. They thought it was a detriment to science. (choosing to interpret this as “grad students were spending too many nights getting high and watching loony tunes)

Some of the scientists enjoy filmed entertainment. I have no use for it.  (INSTITUTE MOVIE NIGHT IS CANON)

Why store corpses? This space could be put to more efficient use. (institute cremates?)

I was told a great writer once lived here. I’m not sure how anyone that wasn’t a scientist can be considered great. (for a long time, i interpreted this as “the institute frowns upon creative expression” but then i realized that x6 is actually just way too into scientists.  missed storyline potential: rescue this awful man from the institute)

The medicine that was practiced here is almost barbaric compared to the Institute’s advances. 

A place for infant humans. I’ve only seen one once. It was unsettling.  (in response to a nursery.  assuming the institute has a communal nursery.)

We sometimes find older-model synth parts in places like this. Scavengers are a constant threat to our surface work teams. (I think this one triggers in a warehouse.)

Doctor Karlin thinks the world’s oceans are probably filled with huge, mutated sea creatures.

People killed each other for food here. The Institute will never have those kinds of problems.

The SRB monitors all radio broadcasts in the Commonwealth. We think the Railroad might be sharing coded messages that way.

A single Institute holotape could hold all of the text in this library.

All of these computers put together wouldn’t match the processing power of one Institute terminal.

I’ve never understood this game. If the objective is to destroy the pins, why not just shoot them? (no bowling in the institute?  or, just as likely, synths aren’t allowed to have fun.)

The Robotics division did something like this once.  (I think this one is in reference to the place where they race and bet on robots)

One of the scientists in Advanced Systems tried to figure out how this boat could have ended up here.  Eventually, he just gave up (in reference to the uss constitution)

The older sections of the Institute look a lot like this.  (corvega)

I used to come here for target practice.  (the amphitheater.  i wonder how often coursers are allowed to go to the surface?  do they mostly stay up there?  or do they mostly stay in the institute?)

We send scavenger teams to places like this to collect chemicals.

Learning from books? Not exactly efficient

In the Institute, we’ve advanced far beyond books. Children learn from interactive terminals.

one time i saw someone skipping rocks and eating a sandwich along the beach and idk he just tossed his sandwich in the water and bit the rock and he just stiffened a bit but i saw him dying inside after realizing what had just happened

Mom announced to the kids that she was pregnant with Steve. They were all excited—except for Ginny, but she would grow to love Steve.🤭

Since Steve heard about measuring height, he's been walking on tiptoes all day😂😂😂

Every child in the Prince family has a pillar🤭

Point of view

They’re plotting something. I just know it.
