"who would nuke someone from under their base?" says lalna, the man who does that.

i do love the chemistry info dump, working that into my xeph headcanons

worlds worst nuclear engineers. these two are going to end the world accidentally.

xeph getting stressed when someone does something wrong and dangerous is so iconic - he gets so snippy so quickly, but it doesn't last long.

voltz was a really janky modpack wasn't it? i didn't remember how jank it was. very unbalanced.

"there'll be a lever under the reactor - you know like in those films where someone has to go sacrifice themselves? yeah" i'm now imagining a xephna recreation of that scene in wrath of khan (the literal only star trek thing i've ever watched) where spock has to enter the reactor to save the ship and dies against the glass as kirk watches.

they are both so silly goofy with their insults. idiot hole is not a normal thing to call someone. lalna and xeph bad at being mean canon.

xeph and lalna on a sipsco heist, what will they steal? (leather, primarily)

ridge has started building his base, xeph has noticed him - its an actually subtle base vs the big bunker or the house in the mountain.

i forgot how blatantly they cheated in this series - do we have a bit of fanon explaining this away or are we simply pretending we do not see it.

"i kind of like dying, its a refreshing experience." lalna this is why xeph makes so many clones of you, hes concerned!!

one of the boys gets radiation poisoning counter: 1 "Why do you always do this!" "I'm a scientist! I like to test things!" "But - that's not smart!" <- the early xephna dynamic, to me

and now the reactor has exploded! well done everyone

i don't think xeph's managed to get radiation sickness yet, so i've decided this is evidence for my 'xeph just is naturally radioactive' headcanon

episode 10 and we get honeydew! i like how he just kind of noticed xeph was missing and went looking for him and, somehow, found him in a concrete bunker. honeyphos real forever.

"you look almost dangerously unprepared for nuclear radiation" "well, yeah, i'm half naked -" honeydew should not be allowed in the lab, he is not wearing the correct PPE

"why are you [working on stuff] without me!" honeydew has separation anxiety for realsies. considering the shit xeph gets up to, its probably justified.

lalna is the bloodthirsty one here, trying to justify the whole nuclear war thing while xeph starts off recommending a nuclear deterrent instead -> surely looking back at this interaction from the future will not feel like a gut punch. surely.

xeph saying: "don't worry about it" counter: 1 2

i like the idea of honeydew being a lot better at maths than xeph - at least mental maths. this isn't lore its just the vibes.
