Quick update: The last few years I’ve been emerging from hibernation to do a big post dump in December, but as you can see that didn’t happen. I probably will post some of my backlog during January though. A little fic, mostly meta of things I’ve gotten annoyed about in the last year. Also, sorry to anyone who’s tried to talk to me since last summer–I pretty much fell off the internet for a couple months in there, moved a couple times (I now live in Seattle fyi), finished my degree, got a new job, got a new roommate, etc.

horus heresy AU where everything is the same but leman russ is exclusively in a husky fursuit

Wait you mean that wasn’t the case already ?

Toony or realistic?

Part of me wants to say realistic, but all I can picture is all of the other wolf stuff being realistic but his stuff being toony. Big blue googly eyes on a suit head on top of a suit of power armor with toon feet and hands.

Leman Russ, velcroing a different tongue into his fursuit’s mouth: this is the long floppy one for when I’m in a silly pup mood awoo :3

I will Kill you

when I made this post I didn’t stop to think if I should

thus I deserve this

How does Bile think of mortals who achieve daemonhood? if i’m not mistaken, he thinks of the gods as non-sentient natural phenomena, and daemons as mostly being a reflection of their beholders’ expectations. At the same time he still seems to think of Fulgrim and Melusine as being a continuation of the mortals they were before.

In my opinion, he likely thinks of it as being akin to someone suffering substance abuse problems – they’re beholden to an addiction that’s eating them alive, and will eventually consume them utterly. That Fulgrim, and to a lesser extent Melusine, are still around is due more to their enhanced physiology than anything else. 

Too, remember that a lot of his bravado regarding daemons and the warp is him rationalising like a motherfucker. Bile’s too smart to drink his own snake-oil. His disbelief is a form of armour, more than anything else – if he believes, then he has to admit that there are things science can’t account for, and that he’s just one more puppet on the strings of the gods…all his work, all his sacrifice will just be another game, decided on a whim. But if he can just deny them long enough to complete his work…then maybe it’ll be the truth, after all.

At his core, like Abaddon and Ahriman, Fabius is just a man, contesting with gods. The outcome of his struggle is not in doubt, only the manner in which the tragedy unfolds. 

“I am beginning to regret hiring such a perceptive remembrancer as my official biographer” 

Of course, once Bile acknowledges the Chaos gods as fully sapient beings, they’re no longer merely natural phenomena, but enemies. And that’s where the real fun begins. 

Why else would he start up a project to clone the Emperor, after all? Why else would he infiltrate the training camps of the Culexus temple, and begin a coordinated campaign of raids against the League of Blackships? Why would he interfere with the founding of later Space Marine chapters?

Why else, save that he had at last concluded that his failures were due to outside interference, and that there could be no true progress until these obstacles were dealt with, by any means possible?

Abaddon might try and play them against each other, and Ahriman might attempt to outwit them, but Bile? 

Bile will declare war.

At least, that’s my opinion…
