#apocalypselockdown

Ok so.... Yesterday night, I got a bit emotional over my life and a little reflecting on what has happened the past month or so and how it affected me and all [10khaos, maggots discord sv, 15khaos, apocalypselockdown, among others] (as I always do, I'm such a soft-ass (I do hope that made up word doesn't mean anything flirty I'm trying to lowkey insult myself in here tyvm English)) And so as I always do when emotions hit, I wrote a poem-kinda-thing.

I showed it to @lxvenderjewel and @falling-raine and this happened

And later @the-beard-of-edward-teach saw it and well....

I made changes to it since I showed it to them, but it's for better, trust me.

(the poem is at the bottom of the post woo)

I think that's enough of a warning for y'all. But just in case, this made people cry, this poem, it's very very dear to me in levels I can't write I can't explain I can't put into poems all the feelings and stuff, but I hope this poem makes up for the most part.

Be careful. I love you.

I've seen the term around Good Omens Tumblr, but I don't know what it means. What is "maggot"?

I know it means a fly larva, but why is it related to Good Omens?

Hi anon maggot (yes, uh, I regret to inform you that you, too, are a maggot) thank you that's so sweet!

You see... it isn't related (well it is, kind of, there's a lot of accidental maggots in Good Omens, but I didn't know that when I coined the term).

I was kidnapped by the fandom in early January and made Good Omens Mascot (before I even watched the show). It started getting old yelling HI GOOD OMENS FANDOM every post, so I decided to call them (not the entire fandom, just the ones that kidnapped and knew me) something else.

To my delirious brain, maggot sounded similar to Mascot. So I started calling my followers maggots. It stuck. Now we have a Maggots discord server and a flag. When I invaded other fandoms, there were more maggots. Now maggots include, but are not limited to, Good Omens fans. They also did a thing and now I have to call them my fans. It was complicated.

You are a maggot. Those folks yelling about unionising and "LET'S OVERTHROW ASMI" are maggots (there was a 24 hour server lockdown for maintenance and the maggots fell into despair). Some of the country gimmick blogs are maggots. Neil Gaiman is a maggot. There is no escaping the maggots.

THIS IS A CONCERNED POST BECAUSE YOU ALL NEARLY FUCKED UP THE LOCKDOWN AND NECESSITATED THREE DIFFERENT PERMISSION CHANGES FROM TWO BOTS BEFORE YOU COULDN'T TYPE ANYMORE.

WHAT EVEN WAS THIS, HUH? WHY CAN'T YOU GET LOCKED DOWN LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE WHY ARE MY FANS LIKE THIS.

AND MY PERSONAL FAVOURITE, SO THE WORLD CAN SEE HOW MUCH MY FANS LOVE ME:

YOU CRAZY WEIRDOS I LOVE YOU BUT IT'S JUST 20 HOURS YOU'LL BE FINE. YES WE TURNED OFF REACTIONS TOO. IT IS EVIDENT, I HOPE, WHY THAT WAS.

also WHY IS IT THERE TWICE. YOU'RE ALL. IM. SPEECHLESS.

Everyone who has been on my Maggots Server knows who Neil Who Is Not Here is, but for the maggots that don't, he's a bot whom we love (well, most of us do) that I named Neil Who Is Not Here as a reference to an apostrophe (not the punctuation, the literary device) that I'd... okay this is too long winded.

Allow me to be more concise: YOU ALL KNOW AND LOVE NEIL GAIMAN, NOW PREPARE TO MEET ANOTHER WORTHY INDIVIDUAL... NEIL GAYBOT. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME PERSON, BY THE WAY.

Here's Neil Who Is Not Here, also known as Literary Device Neil, Neilbot, WE LOVE YOU or SHUT UP NEIL, depending on the occasion and level of frustration of the maggot speaking to him.

Anyway, THE POINT IS, THE MAGGOTS SERVER IS CURRENTLY UNDER LOCKDOWN FOR MAINTENANCE, @good-usernames-were-taken AND @falling-raine ARE WORKING TIRELESSLY ON IT, AND NEILBOT MISSES YOU!
