lil study sketch of John Blanche's Fulgrim
So during a PlayOn Tabletop live stream, someone asked if nids had toe beans. This lead to the cursed creation of Beans the Hormacat. And who else to own him, by everyone's favorite necron.
There will be more hijinks coming.
do you ever think about how chemos got blown up. fulgrim's home planet got blown up. the planet he grew up on, that he loved, that he brought back from the brink of collapse, that he had such high hopes for. his adoptive parents, who probably died before he ever saw the fruits of his labour, were buried there. every spouse and friend he'd ever had was buried there. the oceans couldn't support life. he wanted to fix that.
it doesn't exist anymore. it got blown up.
wanted to try a thing......... erin / voidy is from @comicaurora

So, you guys remember good old Ea-Nasir? The copper merchant from ancient Mesopotamia who kept stiffing his customers out of their money and copper, and then kept their complaint letters stored in a room in his house, to be found by archaeologists thousands of years later?
Well, I recently learned something that makes that story even better. Most clay tablets from that time period were made of unfired clay, which means that they degraded over time, getting washed away by weather and such. Some of the fired tablets were fired on purpose, but others were fired accidentally when the building they were stored in were burnt down.
That means that in this case there are three options. (1) The tablets in Ea-Nasir’s house were unfired and just really randomly lucky to survive. (2) Ea-Nasir’s house was burnt down, likely by someone he owed money to. (3) Ea-Nasir not only kept a bunch of complaint letters in his house, but fired them to preserve them.
Not my white ass locked in the duke’s dungeon again because I fucked his favorite jester 😩
I didn’t know he was so territorial over the silly little guy 🙄
good news I found more outer space
More favourite mad science tropes:
Flashy explosions as a result of errors in procedures that have no conceivable reason to involve any explosive substance
Lab coats in non-laboratory settings
All mad scientists being versed in mad psychology regardless of their ostensible mad field of study
“It comes to life and starts eating people” being a potential failure mode of literally every experiment
WIldly unethical ways of accomplishing goal that could have been achieved more easily without the crimes against humanity
[noun] reaction/inversion/overload, where [noun] is something that one would not customarily regard as being capable of reacting/inverting/overloading
The way that you can pinpoint the popular anxieties of the era of the story’s publication by looking at the form factor of the thing that turns people into face-eating monsters (e.g., weird potion versus nuclear radiation versus psychiatric fuckery, etc.)
