Fic Discussion How do you believe Worm getting a comic adaptation might affect fics?

338 Upvotes

If you didn't know, Wildbow has confirmed that Worm is getting a comic adaptation by IDW. It will be released in May of next year. This will surely create an influx of new members of the Worm community and new fanfic authors as well. Wildbow mentioned that some designs may not be what people expect and will be different from what fan artists have made (he said Panacea and Regant came to mind), so I think it might be cool to have official designs. I personally can't wait to see it.

What do you guys think?

Fic Search - General Fanfics Like I Want To Help

61 Upvotes

For those who aren't aware I Want to Help is a post GM fic where Taylor is dropped into the MCU about a year or so before Banner became the Hulk and in a manner that got her immediately snapped up by S.H.I.E.L.D (Contessa threw her onto the windshield of a quinjet).

She joins S.H.I.E.L.D and begins helping out while keeping the full extent of her powers secret. What I really liked about this one was how well it did at integrating Taylor into this world in a way that allowed her to be influential without feeling like the plot was completely bending around her.

She missed things. She occasionally got outplayed or made a mistake, but she also showed just how dangerous an experienced superhuman could be in a world just barely starting out.

There are a couple of scenes with both sides reacting to high-level bullshit from each other's side and having a bit of a freakout.

I am hoping to find other fics like that. Escalation City (Yu-Gi-Oh crossover), A Hero's Retirement (Dispatch) and Exodus (Big Hero 6) are other ones I know of although they still have a sense of Taylor as an outsider, at least for much of the early fic, whereas I Want To Help pretty quickly gets to her being more grown up, mentally stable, and integrated into her new home. Which is really the vibe I am hoping to find, but I will take anything along the lines of any of those fics.

I guess Sect is also kinda like this albiet from a very different genre.

Fic Search - General Vista is immature

• Upvotes

Vista being a badass grizzled veteran child soldier at age 12, held back only because “she’s a little kid” is very popular, but I want some of the opposite.

Please share some fics where Vista is immature in spite of claiming she isn’t.

(I’m focusing less on something like squeeling in the face of something cute and more emotional immaturity and poor division making)

Fic Search - General Lisa's Revenge

22 Upvotes

As a reader of worm from Taylor's eyes we always see Lisa as a good friend and although she uses secrets to destroy people as Taylor we are made to believe that she's only doing to help or protect the undersides but we know Lisa can be a vicious Bitch and being friends with Taylor She had to want try and take care of Taylor

So is there any fic like that where Tattletale gets Revenge on her Behalf like knowing what the trio did but unlike Taylor who eventually Grows past them Lisa has no such problem and is actively trying to Riun them

Remember it being on Spacebattles; SI woke up as in the hospital as Taylor post locker. Shadow Stalker came to kill her before she could talk; dies in return and the MC makes it look like she triggered during the attack by putting knife in her own leg and nearly bleeds out because of it.

Fic Search - General Entity SI

8 Upvotes

Hi. Looking for an SI or other Entity story where the premise is that the Entity goes to a world and learns things. Maybe they do a cycle.

Preferably more slice-of-life, with a crossover. Please as little existence of Scean and Earth bet as possible.

Fic Search - Specific Looking for spicific Bonesaw fic

7 Upvotes

Ello. I am looking for this specific fic that's been on my mind, but I can't remember the name.

Okay, so in the fic, someone got SI(I think. Maybe just a few memories) into Bonesaw and killed the Nine, trapped Manton in a brain case so she could control The Siberian, sent the PRT a video saying Jack was a master, went to the Sommers Rock meeting to offer healing and to show she was there, and made friends with Aisha, who became a vigilante Cheshire... I think she put Murder Rat out of her misery after getting to Brockton?

That's all I can remember about the fic.

Fic Search - Specific looking for a fic where armsmaster becomes the butcher

7 Upvotes

i think this was only a side plot and the fic (to my knowledge) was never finished, i remember a main plot point being that armsmaster became a serial killer so that the butchers would let him keep tinkering
