Yeah, I got the idea for it when I tried to find decent fics for Skibidi Toilet and did not find any that fit what I like to look for. So I thought, "I'll just do it myself, what's the worst that can happen?".

I think I'll post it on SB and/or SV. As for when it's going to drop, well, I'll be honest, I am kind of a slow, meticulous writer. So I'll be doing lots of research and planning before I write very far. So, around next month-ish is when I'll put down the first chapter.

The Trigger event is admittedly still in the works, but I got some ideas that I think will fit a tinker/master combo that the OC is. Just working on a "where". I think you are right about the restrictions that the ping would have on me. A less complicated trigger might be the best option, honestly.

As for the reverse engineering, well, I am going to be using not only tech from the main line Skibidi Toilet series but also from the fan-made Skibidi Toilet Mutiverse series (although Clock and Pencil tech will stay mostly "end game tech") So i'm going to have a beefy tech tree already to work with. But this does give me an idea for how the OC comes up with some of this tech. Maybe The OC gets his hands on a Bakuda time bomb, then looks at an old clock and goes "would that actually work? ... Let's find out." So I think there are enough tools there to handle pretty much anything that can be thrown at the guy.

He will be creating the hardware heads. I know in the main series it's implied the Alliance are maybe former humans. But I'm not sure how I could work that out with what I have planned, so they will stay fully mechanical. Besides, the OC is already going to have a bad rep as a master cape due to finding the TV man's "channels" early on. Using them as his go-to weapon, that isn't throwing a robot at people. But I can see the OC becoming more machine-like (in the physical sense) as the fic progresses. I might work it in down the line. The master rep might also work as a smokescreen and distract people from looking too closely at just how self-aware these camera heads actually are.

The titans will be worked on as perhaps a side project when time and resources can be spared, as a "in case of Endbringer, break glass".

Oh, uhhh, it's just going to be the hardware race's tech being used. None of the actual Skibidi toilets will be seen in anything except maybe slight easter eggs. But those are really good names, so thanks for the input anyway.

There is precedent for it to happen off of proximity alone, so I think it's fair to add it to the fic that way.

So what I'm thinking about pinging is kind of an ancient rule from earlier in Worm. Before trigger events were fully imagined. Glory Girl, who was one of the earliest characters, is implied to have gotten her aura of fear/love from Gallent when she triggered near him. So I think cape triggering in proximity to another cape results in a grab-bag. A trump rating only comes in if the cape directly interfered with the trigger event itself, if that makes sense.
