I Started Working Today, Then Got An Idea For A Slugterra Gay Time Travel Fic, And Spent An Hour Rough-drafting

the mark vientos celebration scream face is something so important to me personally

Slugterra's Brothers (1417 words) by Mister Rose

writing is so much fun but im tired, leave a comment if u like I'd love fic ideas and thoughts about what I could improve on, see yall tomorrow :)

Why did it take 4 rewatches of s1 to realize Eli says "if blakk has buisness w the deep caverns we don't know what else can can do" at the end of the deadweed episode?

meaning, will ACTUALLY told him about the deep caverns?!?!? And knew the whole time?!?

I loveeee it! I also think Quentin is a strong ally cause he...besides Blakk sometimes...is the only antagonist of the whole show that actually sought to mentally hurt his opponents?

like w Eli. Eli is at his cruelest, most cop-ish state in Quentin's first episode. Why? Because in their first ever interaction, Quentin's shoving in Eli's face how he's taking all his moves from his dad who failed and that Eli's no shane, and I think that hit a sore spot. College kids are brutal and can really burn others? And Quentin's a perfect example. He can reallllly get under peoples skin. His tech and recon would be great, but I wouldn't underestimate just how much of a dueling menace he can be too - him against cc, mocking his newfound allegiance to blakk. Against twist, calling twist a coward with no morals and only 1 good slug and a dead dad. Locke and load, calling them stupid over and over again. Cruel but semi-deserved and, above all else, kinda funny as hell. There's some banter that could really make these villains use their blakk employee mental health insturance and I love the possibilities.

Going back to redeem characters who else do you know would be redeemed? And why?

Honest?

I don't really know-

There are a lot of fun minor antagonists, all of which have their own charm.

But if I had to pick just one, it's would be Quintin

Quintin, as explained in Robo Slugs, wasn't originally a bad guy. He was just traumatized by being trapped in that Slug Pit as a kid.

He ended up with what if think was a justified phobia of Slug, thus leading him to make the Robo Slugs. But because of Slugterras' overall culture around Slug's, he was constantly laughed at and mocked for wanting to make the artificial Slugs. No one took him seriously.

Him going full Power Rangers Villain in Futuria Cavern was just, him providing his inventions where not a waste of time.

I mean, he did go about it the wrong way, don't get me wrong, Quintin was so in the wrong, but he wouldn't have been pushed to that point if the other scientist fucking listened to him, and actually took into account just how much research and innovation went into Robo Slugs(they are objectively cool)

And by the end of Robo Slugs, when Eli dumped that Slugs on Quintin, and the Slugs saved him from being crushed by the Mecha Mechas, Quintin, seemingly gets over his fear, at least enough that when he's recruited by Blakk, he doesn't mined working in close proximity to Ghouls, or firing them out of the Titan Tank.

I believe the reason Quintin sides with Blakk isn't just because Blakk bailed him out of jail time, but because Blakk, actually was interested in his work and what he was capable of, in comparison to the scientist from Futuria Cavern who brushed him off. Which is why he was so willing to make the Titan Tanks to begin with and probably even help refine the Gatling Blasters.

Should Quintin be redeemed, I want it to start off with him realizing, Blakk don't actually care about him, but what he brings to the table, his inventions.

Blakk piling on more and more and more work on Quintin, to the point Quintin asks for, like a few hours to just sleep and Blakk snapps threatening to haul Quintin back to Stalagmight 17 himself if he doesn't comply.

This leds to Quintin doing small acts of rebellion by delaying projects, putting in more obvious weak points in the Titan Tanks, to full on sabotage.

Eventually, probably around the aftermath of 'Light as Day' while Blakk is still in the Deep Caverns, Quintin takes as much shit as he can, and leaves Blakk Industries, settles in a new Cavern under a new identity, and lives a more regular life as a local inventor who helps out fixing stuff, and making things.

I see him being an informant as well, like leaking info anonymously about Blakk Industries on forums for the Shane Gang or anyone else who wants to take the fight to Blakk themselves.

they only pop off when facing elimination so we might have a chance I NEED A SUBWAY WS IM MY LIFETIME

ITS ALL ON YOU METS BRING IT HOME! GIVE THE PEOPLE THE SUBWAY SERIES WE DESERVE!

and that isolationist plot contrasted well with season 3!!!

i swear, im so fascinated by the shane gang's political power, yet also their political separation. i think its a shane thing! the ynags fought with other heroes of peach blossom spring cavern, their teacher stayed in their cavern and is implied to have stayed by jun's side for a while. its specifically the SHANES, with few allies and of those allies Will losing like half of them, with a dissapearing master and a distant shadow clan, where the shanes stand mystically ALONE. as if the very BRAND was a lone op hero shooting bad guys. like omfg, eli broke this cycle by even HAVING A SHANE GANG. AND TELLING THEM THINGS.

if slugterra continues, i want him breaking that legacy. gain allies in mario, and quentin, and the gentleman, and stocker, and dana, and omfg, everyone who wants to fight for good.

My friend wants to know something and I to want to know as well, this is his question “how come nacho’s the only dark bane to go work for dr. Blakk wouldn’t it be better to have more dark bane in his group? Or did the writers have no time to make more dark bane characters?”

Let us know what you think 🤔

more dark bane come up to help Dr Blakk at the end of "Back to Blakk" - nacho was the only one up at first because a)they wanted to keep the secret of the bark bane in Slugterra for as long as they could, and nacho is the only one (probably) who can shapeshift to look more human, and b) Blakk needed a lot of ghouls to open a portal big enough for several dark bane to go thru at once. The fandom has been calling the 4 other bark bane that came up after back to Blakk plus nacho "the dark bane elite" for a while. Brimmstone stayed in the deep caverns so he could command the army into the portal during the s2 finale - they planned for a huge assault, not a slow trickling of dark bane, especially since they probably planned on causing a great upheaval and overpowering blakk in the confusion.

METS ARE HEADIN' TO CALI PEOPLE

it keeps going, it just keeps going. W a Lindor grand slam to make a 1-0 into a 1 - 4.

Holy heck, they have been incredible. These Mets are good, but they also have a CULTURE - memes, plenty of team spirit, resilience in their harshest moments. They are at the top of the game, but that's not too special, there's a fantastic team that makes it every year in the mlb - this team brings JOY to every victory, moments to every score card. That's what makes 2024 so magical. And actually, that's the energy that's brought the Mets to winning the World Series their first time right? The little team who was the worst in baseball in 1964 won 5 years later (ish, been a while since I've seen the stat). It's where all the losin' Mets jokes started, and where the Mets got all their quirkiness from. And then they smashed peoples expectations in 1969 and then they also got the "amazins" and the "miracles" and the "you gotta believe"s. It's the type of team where you're not looking for a result - ur watching a ride. And holy HECK we're getting it.

LGM!!!

I cope by making memes im sorry

bestie, we see what he's like in romance with Drucilla, and ur right, he would do that for her

How is kord like with romance?

You know the trop of that one person being a fool in love?

that's Kord.

He is an absolute fool attempting to do everything right, flowers, active listening, the attempt at a romantic date, funny jokes, he would be so whipped its not funny.

I also kind of see him acting a little like Kevin Leven from the original Ben 10 story line, more accurately then Kevin and Gwen where dating.

Kevin cares for Gwen but he can be a dense idiot, and I see it happening with Kord lmao

especially the;

"You have to treat a car like you treat a woman"

"...go on"

".... No. I sense I've made a mistake of some kind"
