Show Notes
Jenny and Ted discuss Snare 13.8.
Episode Notes: Boy are they ever ensnared! Jenny is cautiously optimistic. But maybe not about Grue Alert! We have body horror! Jenny's list of options for who's about to show up Oops no one knows they're there The Nine are just too adaptable Faultline vs. sheaths Maybe she can kill Mannequin already One Leviathan event per story, please! A meditation on fridging Who would be the one to kill Grue? Taylor killing Brian might make Bitch feel more at home in the group Who would be the one to save Grue? Jenny's controversial opinions on Bonesaw's moral fiber Bonesaw is too good and it's a problem Why hasn't Scion dealt with the Nine already? This is the scenario Coil chose to keep What would it do to Taylor if Brian dies? Was Taylor's heroism in this chapter disastrous or not? Taylor's utilitarianism and her sense of control Distrust of the Travelers Sundancer's moral lines vs. Taylor's Is the decision about Grue the worst thing Taylor has done in the story so far? Jenny doesn't think so Grue is a statement from Mannequin The nerves as a metaphor The power of first names Chekhov's pocket sand Taylor has trouble sitting with the negative consequences of her choices and accepting loss, for solid character-based reasons The most controversial twist in all of Worm! Taylor vs. Trickster's brand of chaos Taylor's pathological need to save people RIP Parian Oh no the decoys Ted loves Bonesaw and wants her to die Wildbow doesn't censor his art, either Precedents for mercy killings
