another addition to the will Shane discussion

...I'm gonna be SO clear about this: this is NOT the fault of Eli, obviously. He's a kid and trying his best.

but, when Eli got to Slugterra, he COULD have made it his life's mission to find out what happened to his dad, or find all the secrets that supposedly died with him. He didn't. He took up being the Shane and left the past buried unless it smacked him in the face in some current situation. He never once looked for what his dad left him, didn't even go looking for Will's remaining allies. They all just found him, and he only went searching when he needed to - Redhook, the elementals, etc...

it could also be that Will left some things, as much as he could (tho he still should've told him stuff about his enemies), but Eli wasn't interested in unearthing it. He wanted to move on, make a path for himself and not focus on what happened. That could also influence why he never even looks for his dad - he wants to, but he's been in a "look to the future" mindset for so long it hurts to look back and realize all he's missed out on in being a Shane.

personally, I think he did take the right route. That would have driven him insane, and he knew that. There's something really refreshing about such a possibly vengeful character strictly choosing to be a force for good and stick to current bad guys instead. Just...remember. We got no will/Slugterra answers partially because Eli never truly looked for them. I think he was going to...but in the future, when the current fires are put out. Or after therapy, whichever came first.

I DID IT, I POST WITHIN THE HOUR!

slugterra ao3, get ready, content has arrived

I BEG YOU TO READ HER WIKI PAGE

honestly, i only know her because in America if you look like a girl and can shoot well its our sacred tradition for the coach/range officers to call that girl "annie oakley" at least once a month and explain who she is to the unsuspecting kid lmaoooo, I was called annie oakley so often that its lowkey the only time I like being seen as feminine :)

and at a range her whole thing is being the best shot in american history (at least the best popular one) and thats all i knew till, like, a few years ago, where i read her wiki and like BRO HER LIFE??? very wack, and she kinda seems cool on a moral level too!

here's her young (age kinda debated)

also she was kinda adopted by Sitting Bull and supported Indian Land rights which is cool

and here's possibly her last photo, w her dog and her husband Frank E. Butler (who she met when he challenged her to a shootout and she beat him)

wiki is decent, there's also the Annie Oakley Center Foundation here: Frequently Asked Questions About Annie Oakley

...how did I make that Annie Oakley post not realizing Mario bravado is obviously inspired by Annie Oakley and

THEREFORE a fic of his convo w blakk would be like the perfect way to explore the Annie Oakley parallels w Slugterra?!?

brb, I have so much to write-

HC: certified doctors in Slugterra have to pass an upper body physical test purely because in order to treat cave trolls they must be able to treat them without need of helpers - without being hindered by lack of arm strength.

You think different species like cave trolls and humans need different means of cpr? Pronto hears thru his nose and has his heart in his butt so I assume that's def different, humans are smaller than cave trolls so do cave trolls only use one hand for adults like how humans do for human childern cause of their pure strength? The list goes on

I would think so!

Humans already need different CPR. Till age 8, you perform CPR ment for kids on children, and after 8, you perform adult CPR.

Child CPR has you delivering 5 hard open palm blows to the back, followed by a two finger chest compreshion, while they are angled downward at like 45°, you already have to use one hand on a kid.

For adults (8 and above-weird, i know, but that's what I was taught-) you do regular CPR, and if needed/available, you bust out the AED

The AED will periodically shock the system to stimulate the body and tell whether or not the heart has started again. It will guide you through the motions and even has a button to switch to child mode to give instructions on providing CPR to a child.

There is also the fact other devices, like a oxygen mask might be in play as well depending on the situation.

With that in mind, and the fact that different species have different overall biology, it would make sense that there are different protocols when giving CPR to different residents of the Caverns.

Humans are straightforward, but for a Cave Troll to give a human CPR they would have to dile back their strength, CPR already risks the braking of ribs as is. Same when it comes to Elf's, they are humanoid, and Moleinoids, and their weird ass biology.

Whoever a Cave Troll must tend to medically that isn't another Cave Troll, they would have to be very mindful of their strength. So yeah, I would agree/assume they only use one hand when dealing with someone that isn't their own kind

As for a Human, Elf or Moleinoids preforming CPR on a Cave Troll, they would have to use as much strength and they could, or find another Cave Troll.

I would bet there are different AED devices made for the different types of residents of the Caverns, the Cave Troll one delivering more of a shock than the one for Humans, Elf's and Moleinoids.

And you know what? Let's take it up a notch and include slugs. Hypothetically speaking, if a slug here to need CPR, i would think it would follow the child rules, two finger chest compreshions and a blow to the back. Probably with not as much power, since they are so small.

In honor of my friend binging Slugterra with me: she wanted memes, and I had a few ideas.

this is my first reblog on tumblr and I don't regret it :) this is canon now lol

I wish we had an episode just about Mall Cavern Shenanigans

The Mall Cavern is like the best place for a four-way(or five-way) story.

Just think about it.

The gang walks in, and they all have their own plans.

Trixie is in a video camera store because she needs to get her camera lens fixed but the clerk keeps trying to get her to by a new one.

Kord is looking at new mecha and blaster mods gets into a minor disagreement with another grearhead.

Pronto is window shopping for fancy stuff and probably haggling for cheaper prices.

Eli is just walking around, seeing whatever catches his eye. Probably gets recognized by a few people, like other customers and staff. People keep trying to get him to buy their favorite product or buy from their store(because having a Shane buy from you is such a big deal), and he just politely refuses.

And the Slugs just get into slug shenanigans. (Obligatory something gets blown up with them)

The episode ends with Eli being called over the Malls intercom to come collect the rest of his team from Mall jail.

This is because;

Trixie punched the clerk trying to up sell her.

Kord 'accidentally' broke the blaster of the guy he was having a disagreement with during a little impromptu competition to see who could best mod a balster(he put a glitter bomb in the main accelerator)

Pronto got busted for being a cheapskate when one of the cashiers got fed up with him

And the Slugs, the Slugs, just fall through a vent conveniently just as Trixie, Kord, and Pronto are being let out.

Alternatively, the gang gets called to Mall jail to pick up Eli because in an attempt to hide from people, he accidentally ends up stealing a minor trinket he forgot to put back on the shelf/pay for.

Edit to add: when Eli is sent to Mall jail, he learns his dad got arrested for very similar reasons, the security guard straight up show him a photo of Will Shane behind bars. Eli is allowed to keep a copy

Team as family and domestic stuff is all I'm saying.

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!

TOMORROW.

I will post TOMORROW. We will get my post-shadows eli cries fic. I swear by it. But I am tired and my leftover chicken nuggets need to be refrigerated, im sorry.

*Eli spawns out of nowhere*: you really left off writing tonight in THAT scene??? right before I spill about Tad and right after Trixie tells me about her mom's self-defense murder?!? I'm not even completely healed yet from almost being cut in half?!?!?!?!?!?! BRO WHAT

*me, collapsing on my hands and knees, eating one last chicken nugget* im SORRY MY SON

Have a little guy bc I've been thinking about Slugterra recently
