Call me Phosphor!
Iâm just here (very reluctantly, given tumblrâs Everything) for my friends and my fandoms, and I read much more than I post. I expect that Iâll mostly post Fallen London stuff (namely my OCs and my fanmade sigils) but who knows. I may occasionally post things on my headmate Larkâs behalf, including stuff about his own FL OC. (You can find him on his own blog as well, at @lutekeeper.)
Anyone whoâs not a TERF/Nazi/etc is welcome to follow. I believe in good faith and in caring about people despite their messiness; I have no fondness for exclusionism, puritanism, or the slapfighting that passes for âdiscourseâ on social media. Do with this information what you will.

FAQ
Why am I blocked?
See this post.
Are you still drawing Correspondence sigils/taking requests?
Yes! I go long periods where I don't draw any because I'm prone to getting deleted by seasonal depression and other health woes, but it's always okay to send in requests as long as you understand that it may be a while until I get to it.
Can I get a tattoo of one of your sigils/use it in my Fallen London fanart/brand it onto my Fallen London OCâs back/(some other personal noncommercial use that doesnât involve blockchain or AI)?
Yes, go ahead! No credit needed.
Can I make NF*Ts of your sigils/use your sigils to train my AI/(some other techbro junk)?
No. Fuck off.
Can I use your sigils in a non-techbro commercial project?
Ask me first! If itâs something like slapping my art onto T-shirts, almost certainly no. If itâs something like âIâm drawing my Correspondent OC for a Neathy charity zine and want to use one of your designs,â then itâll probably be fine - but again, ask me first!

A request for Fallen Londoners doing Art Fight this year
I'm collecting FL OCs on Art Fight to add to a directory of "FL OCs on Art Fight, organized by what kinds of spoilers their profiles contain" to make things easier for some friends who are avoiding spoilers.
If you have your FL OCs on Art Fight and have finished their profiles/don't expect to add more lore or backstory to them until Art Fight is over, feel free to respond to this post with a link and I'll shuffle them in!
Also, just as a disclaimer, I'm not going to be sharing that list anywhere outside the group of friends its for. That's because the spoiler cataloging is super idiosyncratic and tailored Specifically For These Friends, and I don't want it to be treated as a global directory when it super isn't meant as one. You're more than welcome to use the notes on this post as a way to find other people, though!

Latrox Une is so chill as a Railjack and on-call crew member, lmao. I handed him a hot pink bubble blaster before flying us into a storm of swirling void lightning and he took it like a champ. no longer being stranded on the meat moon does wonders for your mental health it seems

all of the corpus suck except for [new war spoiler redacted] and that one guy who's perpetually assigned to the zombie-infested hellworld meat moon. poor dude's constantly being nagged by both his employers and the resident immortal zombie scientists to gather more samples for them, and the only things standing between him and the ever-hungry hordes are one (1) dinky drone that probably cost him half his paycheck, a peashooter, and you, a walking warcrimes machine who probably vaporized like 300 of his coworkers earlier in the day. he's tired. he's so tired. happy friday the 13th/valentine's day double feature, latrox une. I hope you get to lie down at least once
my favorite part about this guy is that he knows you're a terrifying war machine. he says it himself. he knows your 9-5 consists of vaporizing goons like him and he gets to see how you do it because you leave a mile-wide trail of charred zombie bits on your way to him. he doesn't care. he's so fucking tired. he complains to you, continuously, about how he's so fucking tired as you commit a local extinction event. nothing you can do to this man is worse than being permanently assigned to the meat moon
okay so I haven't played the latest update yet (been busy!! but in a good way) but oh my god, I'm reading the patch notes, anD YOU CAN HIRE LATROX UNE FOR YOUR RAILJACK CREW?? YOU CAN GET HIM OFF THE MEAT MOON??? holy fucking shit stop the presses THIS is the most important part of this update
Hi! I made another ask game since folks liked the last one. This one is oriented towards folks who've been plural for a while and would like to talk about how their plural experience has changed over time. However, there are no rules around how old or experienced you and your system have to be. If these questions resonate with you, then you can participate!
As before, all systems are welcome to participate as long as you respect the spirit of the post and don't drag discourse onto it. Feel free to copy and paste this wherever with or without credit, a bunch of these questions were lifted from other places anyway. I tried to pick or at least phrase questions to be as inclusive as possible, but I've almost certainly missed things - plurality is diverse and my system only experiences a small corner of it. I encourage people to make their own ask games!
đ (train) - How has your understanding of yourselves, and of plurality in general, changed over time?
âľ (sailboat) - What are some things that were important to you that no longer are? Or things that weren't important to you that are now?
â´ď¸ (ferry ship) - What changes in the plural community have you observed over your time there?
đ (bus) - How has your system specifically changed over time? What about individual members? (If they want to answer!)
âď¸ (airplane) - What's something about your system now that would have surprised your younger selves? How do you feel about it in the present?
đ (helicopter) - Which things have gotten easier with time? Which things are still hard? (Examples: doubt, communication, conflict resolution, and so on)
đš (skateboard) - Is there an accomplishment that you're proud of?
đ´ (kick scooter) - What's some advice that you would give to your younger selves? What would have helped you the most back when you were new to plurality?
đ (taxi) - What would you tell or ask your future selves? What are you still trying to learn?
đď¸ (motorcycle) - What have you tried that didn't work for your system? Why didn't it work? Do you do something else instead?
đ˛ (bicycle) - What does day-to-day life look like for you all now, compared to back when you were new to plurality?
đ (rocket) - What future do you all want for yourselves?
for context: I call Sci-Fi Freak the resident John the Apostle of Limbo mains because he made THE most comprehensive guide to playing Limbo, the Limbible. this is a man who knows his shit inside and out, both about the game in general and about Limbo. this is one of the sickos who sits down and investigates every possible niche interaction in hopes of finding the latest stupidly broken edge case, which because it's Limbo, and Warframe, there's always at least one new stupidly broken edge case per update.
now, the Stug. the Stug is the most memed-upon gun in the history of Warframe, because it fucking sucks. it has a whopping base damage of 4, a humongous crit chance of 5%, and an astonishing status chance of 0 fucking percent. someone did a meme challenge run of Warframe where they had to finish the whole game using nothing but a Stug and it was apparently the most harrowing experience ever. it is the gun that veterans "recommend" to hapless newbies when they feel like having a laugh, before five other veterans burst in going NOOOO NOT THE STUG. it's bad! it's just bad!!!
...except that in the most recent update, they gave the Stug an Incarnon Adapter, which is basically a special upgrade you can attach to specific guns that boosts their stats and gives them a super form you can activate after meeting a certain condition. from what I've been seeing around, the general consensus is that it makes the Stug like, Okay. not super overpowered, but if you build it right, it becomes a viable weapon that is weird and fun, which is much more than could be said for its original self. which is good! that's what incarnons should do!
.......except except apparently SOMETHING about how it works with Limbo, specifically, is boosting it from "decent" to "what the actual fuck." I'm not 100% clear on what it is yet, though? the sickos are still testing things. but something has gotten them riled up
no one has cobbled together an explanation or posted a build yet but there are clips of rooms of enemies being obliterated by storms of bouncing goop orbs. one screenshot of an end mission summary screen where limbo + stug beat the rest of their squad (hildryn, titania, kullervo) in damage done + total kills. this feels like a fever dream. I keep feeling like the whole limbo lovers community is going to reveal that it's all an elaborate prank any second now, except that this is all within a small niche discord where people are talking about how multishot gives you bigger more explosive balls with utmost seriousness
"you can shoot your enemies across dimensions? haha warframe is always so goofy--"
NO. YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. one of the primary restrictions upon limbo is that weapons fire does Not cross the rift. if he is in the rift and his enemy is not, or vice versa, then any guns shot or swords swung by one cannot harm the other. only abilities cross the rift - you have to be in the same dimension as your target if you want to hit them with weapons. except that the fucking stug incarnon doesn't give a shit about the laws of reality, I guess!!! just obliterate your foes with bouncing goop blobs while you're hanging out in another dimension where they can't touch you, why not
like it's not the ONLY weapon that breaks the rules (melee influence is cross-rift, scourge's bullet attractor field is cross-rift, okina prime's phantom daggers are cross-rift, the vectis incarnon which was also added this patch has cross-rift explosions on headshot, to name a few) but it's still a BIG DEAL whenever any weapon does because that has all sorts of downstream effects on the nonsense you can get up to

okay, so I played the latest warframe update! I have a bunch of thoughts that I might write about later, or not, but right now I'm just doing a bunch of railjack so I can hire my favorite corpus guy off the meat moon, because I only have good and correct priorities
and after having done one each of vena's and ryoku's railjack missions, I just gotta say... vena is, like, actually really normal when you're working with her?
like again I only did one mission each so far so maybe there's variant dialogue I missed. but while her aesthetic/corresponding warframe is all about BATHING IN THE BLOOD OF YOUR FOES and the promo stuff/story quest dialogue felt like it also played that up, vena herself is like, the most normal person ever when you're working alongside her. she refers to herself periodically as an animal driven to hunt and maul but then you have to find a cloaked ship and she's like, okay, go destroy the cargo on those little ships and they'll lead us to the big ship when they flee. and then you go board the ship to grab its thingerminger and she's like k, I'll go hack the terminal, can you watch my back. and then some dudes come in and begin shooting their guns and she's like ugh!! I'm trying to concentrate, you guys!! and so on, and so forth. she solves problems in ways more nuanced than just blowing them up. she's entirely civil to you and her crew. she doesn't go off on random tangents about how there needs to be More Gore or how great and perfect orion is. she's got a chip off her shoulder about ryoku but after running a mission with the guy where he kept yelling in my ear to do this or that, I think she's so valid for that.
like maybe I'm biased bc Women, but she's delightfully competent and actively a pleasure to work with, while ryoku mostly gave me a headache. honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if this was intentional - on the surface, she seems a lot more sinister and savage than ryoku, who is all about Honor(tm) and Discipline(tm), but then you get to work with them and you realize that she's actually kinda chill while ryoku is kind of a prick. he's associated with pride, after all, and not the rainbow kind (unless...)
all of the corpus suck except for [new war spoiler redacted] and that one guy who's perpetually assigned to the zombie-infested hellworld meat moon. poor dude's constantly being nagged by both his employers and the resident immortal zombie scientists to gather more samples for them, and the only things standing between him and the ever-hungry hordes are one (1) dinky drone that probably cost him half his paycheck, a peashooter, and you, a walking warcrimes machine who probably vaporized like 300 of his coworkers earlier in the day. he's tired. he's so tired. happy friday the 13th/valentine's day double feature, latrox une. I hope you get to lie down at least once
my favorite part about this guy is that he knows you're a terrifying war machine. he says it himself. he knows your 9-5 consists of vaporizing goons like him and he gets to see how you do it because you leave a mile-wide trail of charred zombie bits on your way to him. he doesn't care. he's so fucking tired. he complains to you, continuously, about how he's so fucking tired as you commit a local extinction event. nothing you can do to this man is worse than being permanently assigned to the meat moon
