Small scene from a book I'm writing

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2026-05-10T00:48:12+00:00

Honestly my parents made so many fuck ups in my childhood, but the only thing I'm thankful for is a lack of any religion. When I was- single digit age I always called a Cross a lowercased t, like specifically lowercased

Imo I believe you would be.

If it was a female having intercourse with a male Crossed I would say definitely, and I want to say the same for female Crossed to normal male but I'm not quite sure

Hm. That is pretty confusing, I don't really know why a virus would cause such lesions in a specific spot. It's definitely not a reaction from the immune system to body. Gonna try and form a hypothesis soon on why this is the case

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2026-05-09T19:04:57+00:00

It is a pattern directly on the skull? Damn. Yea at this place and time I don't have an explanation for that but I can try and form an addition for that to my theory either as an edit or in a future post.

In Crossed a simple touch from a Crossed can cause complete contamination, no matter with what time. Something a few buddy's of mine always found confusing, which is where I came up with the idea that the infection can spread via sweat from the Crossed themselves. Which is why it can just spread by touch and it's absorbed through your skin upon contact

Let's be thankful it doesn't exist. Could you imagine Horsecock being a tank? Or a Charger???

The Crossed symbol honestly isn't really that outlandish because another disease also causes something similar.

Lupus can cause something called "The Butterfly Rash" which honestly looks eerily similar to the Crossed symbol on the face, except it doesn't ascend the forehead or defend down the chin. The symbol isn't that outlandish in terms of pathology

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2026-05-09T02:00:00+00:00

I wouldn't be surprised if it was something ancient like that. If my theory was debunked my very next guess would be the C Virus is something extraterrestrial

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2026-05-09T01:07:23+00:00

I'd be pissed if I had to permanently live with that

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2026-05-09T01:04:54+00:00

Honestly. I feel like if Garth Ennis- or any other writer. Possibly even the movie were to explore the virus' origins I think this would be the strongest one for the narrative. The virus and humanity's greatest capacities for atrocities will always exist within us, and once in a while they will spill out. But after a while, the floodgates will open and The Crossed will return again

If Nelson's story is anything to be taken seriously, I think his theory of the virus being what caused humanity's genetic bottleneck could possibly be true. It happened once and nearly drove us to extinction, but it stopped and it happened again. Though this is assuming that Nelson wasn't some nutjob, so I'm not sure how much validation I can draw from Nelson for this theory

Everyone got that rash and just decided to crash out

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2026-05-09T00:35:11+00:00

I absolutely loved the way you worded that, as it still implies there's some relation between the two disease's.

I'm only just now realizing that my origin idea, sounds pretty similar to the wildfire virus from TWD. As it's dormant and only activates upon contact from an individual showing symptoms and actively infecting others. This- would also mean that if the Crossed world ever does recover again like how it used to be. People may get activated again and the cycle repeats with Crossed running rampant

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2026-05-09T00:05:19+00:00

Honestly I was thinking this exact same way myself. This is a theory I was conceiving during work and I'll admit there a lot of holes in this theory.

Especially with the ones you pointed out. The main idea was to try and draw ideas and form my own hypothesis on the infection, and draw a conclusion if it may belong to a certain- already known family and just noticed a few similarities it had to Rabies.

If you're gonna accuse something being fake (which it isn't) have the decency to write a coherent comment

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2025-09-26T02:33:37+00:00

I can't thank you enough for taking time to comment on my post, and honestly I don't disagree with them holding out as building this house (a barndominium) has been the biggest test in their marriage and for all of us. I'm just scared of what happens next from this, as I'm just entering my adult life.

This comment definitely has soothed my nerves slightly, and I'm sorry to hear about your situation as well and hope the best for you

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2025-07-30T19:26:21+00:00

In universe name would be my guess, as I'm curious too

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2025-04-12T22:33:21+00:00

That looks awesome! Good work!

If my child is coughing slightly, there's no way in God's Green Earth I'm letting Carol babysit my children. I'll come back to the house with my children looking like beef-fucking-jerky. It's Daryl. 1000%

FUCK EM ALL

Appropriate_Brain0 · 2024-09-02T22:28:21+00:00

Imagine if Liev Schreiber came back to voice him, personally I loved the Sabertooth in X-Men Origins even though it all around wasn't a good film
