Sᴇᴇʀ
edited to add his entry post! here!
Sᴇᴇʀ
which is a log. because he's barely literate and communication devices are kind of a Big Honking Deal so he can't work himself up to actually using it for something small like 'where am I, what's going on, why am I here, why is everything stars'
Ptriciadactyl
how dare someone knock Taura and Jasper out of "tallest person on the Barge"
Sᴇᴇʀ
maybe they can all collectively work on clothing together!
Ptriciadactyl
Misty is trying to give Taura a makeover
Ptriciadactyl
...I have to throw Taura at him for the sheer reason of height because she's never met people taller than her.
Ptriciadactyl
like, her fellow prototypes might have been around her height, but definitely no one else.
Sᴇᴇʀ
he's had other people around his height, the rest of his unit, but he hasn't had that for years.
Ptriciadactyl
her either. the other prototypes all died more than 3 years ago.
Sᴇᴇʀ
...that's his commanding officer next to him
...that's his commanding officer next to him
Sᴇᴇʀ
honestly, Alice (said commanding officer) would make an absolutely FABULOUS warden
Sᴇᴇʀ
hah
Sᴇᴇʀ
see
Sᴇᴇʀ
you gotta skip the line
Sᴇᴇʀ
and just app Dream
Sᴇᴇʀ
Dream is always at least an inch taller than anyone else around
Sᴇᴇʀ
that would be SO WEIRD
Sᴇᴇʀ
LORD he is
Sᴇᴇʀ
Pumpkin Scissors, a manga about post-war damages, the impact on scientific discovery on society, the difficulties of socioeconomic justice, international politics and the fuckery therein, and how very very political science and innovation can be.
Sᴇᴇʀ
also occasionally fanfiction, cats, giant dick jokes, and an eight foot dude who fights tanks melee style
Sᴇᴇʀ
It got an anime in the VERY early 2000s but it's been a slow backburner title for a long time
Sᴇᴇʀ
which you can watch on Funimation's site for free!
Sᴇᴇʀ
but I like the manga because it goes on longer and gets MUCH more indepth.
Sᴇᴇʀ
also scenes like this 
Sᴇᴇʀ
I'm a sucker for beautifully done black and white
Sᴇᴇʀ
stuff like this
stuff like this
Sᴇᴇʀ
I really love some of the art
Sᴇᴇʀ
and if anyone wanted to get a feel for Randel, these are some good pages for it

Sᴇᴇʀ
unfortunately, gotta read each individual page right to left
bluecanary
oh no hes so sweet
bluecanary
also.please put him on the height chart spreadsheet so I can laugh at the range between tallest and shortest barge resident again
Ptriciadactyl
TLV Height Chart
Sᴇᴇʀ
added! I wasn't sure how to put warren in other than just add him to the end
Sᴇᴇʀ
don't want to muck up your chart
Sᴇᴇʀ
bluecanary
: he's a BIG MARSHMALLOW.
Sᴇᴇʀ
...most of the time
poliorketes
omg I had NO idea this existed
poliorketes
ray is actually 5'10.5" canonically lmao but I rounded up
bluecanary
this was spawned out of a meme months ago iirc
bluecanary
I just remember because I love seeing how tiny bill is compared to whoever is tallest. look at that itty bitty douchebag
poliorketes
(also me: pretends to fully know feet and inches, definitely never have to Google :x )
poliorketes
hahaha it's great
anstaar
i'm not saying it was my obsessive search for heights prompted by meme, but there was a slight element of that
Sᴇᴇʀ
this is accurate to sizes
this is accurate to sizes
Ptriciadactyl
I messaged the person who made it for a previous game I was in and then snagged her formatting
bluecanary
the kitten ....
Ptriciadactyl
I like height charts!
Sᴇᴇʀ
it is also accurate to Randel with cats
Ptriciadactyl
it's useful to know
poliorketes
I love character heights!!! I honestly hadn't realized Elizabeth is Short, she gives off a 175cm vibe whole being 163cm
Sᴇᴇʀ
small things hang on him
small things hang on him
Sᴇᴇʀ
especially cats
especially cats
bluecanary
ow
Sᴇᴇʀ
...honestly he probably doesn't feel it.
poliorketes
oh pal
Sᴇᴇʀ
Don't worry, Ray. You could beat him up.
poliorketes
yeah but he really shouldn't
poliorketes
he immediately wanted to fight jasper lmao
Sᴇᴇʀ
I doubt he ever would. Randel's kind of a pushover
poliorketes
yeah, exactly. he wouldn't try to fight a cow either. big and friendly.
poliorketes
ah.... oh no Elizabeth is fully ready to be a terrible influence on him
Sᴇᴇʀ
one of the main characters almost immediately was like '...you remind me of my horse'
Sᴇᴇʀ
THIS should be interesting
poliorketes
hahaha oh man
Sᴇᴇʀ
it says sad sad things that RAndel's like 'The Admiral is kind and noble.'
Sᴇᴇʀ
'I mean yeah, we're trapped but food and water and shelter and wonders like this. Clearly a very kind man."
anstaar
fitz's approach to breaking information: bet you a dollar i'm standing next to a dead person
Mad Larkin
Marty's just going "about that..."
anstaar
"and it's you" / truly the most sensitive
Sᴇᴇʀ
yeah, Randel's ideas of 'fair' and 'kind' are... like
Sᴇᴇʀ
REALLY REALLY WARPED ngl
anstaar
fitz once got thrown in a prison where he had to mine on the moon because he helped a woman leave her boyfriend, who happened to be the president of the planet. he'd agree there are a lot of problems with the barge and so on, but he does privately feel it's a lot fairer and nicer than some prisons
Sᴇᴇʀ
yeah, Randel's just like '...so you... have a trippy dream every few months, and for that you get food and water and shelter for free??"
fiercebadrabbit
I just pulled up the Pumpkin Scissors anime and it's your fault
Sᴇᴇʀ
YES!
Sᴇᴇʀ
https://www.funimation.com/shows/pumpkin-scissors/ it's all watchable heeeere for anyone
Sᴇᴇʀ
and Oreldo is voiced by one of the RvB guys
Sᴇᴇʀ
in the English, anyway
fiercebadrabbit
I watched it years ago but I still apparently know the theme song
Sᴇᴇʀ
I actually really like the theme song
Sᴇᴇʀ
GOD I FORGOT HOW FUCKED UP THE 908 were!
Sᴇᴇʀ
all the Invisible 9s are so awful
Sᴇᴇʀ
poliorketes
: I'm sorry he's so depressing!!
poliorketes
noooo no worries! she can handle that
poliorketes
what she doesn't get is a lack of self esteem. meaning: theoretically she knows it exists and how to abuse it in others but she had not felt that, ever
Sᴇᴇʀ
god just rereading this arc since this is just before he gets there
