albino worm is dead and gone. im so sorry

more rw scraps?! more likely than you think

had a silly thought/headcanon about rain world as implied by The Watcher (spoilers for the main ending!)

so we've seen that the ancients all had pretty long names (like Six Grains of Gravel, Mountains Abound), and while the iterators follow the same general naming scheme, they're much shorter (Five Pebbles/Unparalleled Innocence/etc)

assuming Spinning Top is her canon name and not just a nickname for the code, to me that implies the ancients' children were given shorter childhood names, and received a full name once they reached adulthood—especially since Spinning Top seems to be named after her favourite toy.

the name Spinning Top also lines up with the short naming scheme of the iterators. in vanilla, there's already reference to the fact that the ancients were the iterators' parents, even if only symbolically. based on these things, it can be assumed that the iterators were named as if they were ancient children!

i always adhered to the headcanon that the iterators' puppets were child/doll-sized and that slugcats were small, which is somewhat reinforced in the Watcher's main ending; i still interpret the room sizes as being exaggerated, and also that the shadows are being stretched by the direction of the lighting. i also uncharitably thought this was deliberate so that the ancients could feel powerful next to their creations, but now i think it's more likely it was done out of fondness.

it could also be symbolic, to show how the iterators don't age the same way fully organic beings do, and they've been stuck with their Big Task for all eternity... but that's reading into things.
