The Vast - Tumblr Posts
I downloaded 3 Vast episodes to listen to on my flight. I got (51) High Pressure, (21) Freefall, (75) Long Way Down. I'll reblog the update after.
My friend @soapdi-spencer is doing it too wish us luck
Looking at Pinterest, I saw this comment
[ID: Pinterest comment from 14-Prickly-Sparrows saying "Simon Fairchild is on both sides. I'm imagining a 3 peice suit made of Hawaiian shirt fabric" End ID]
So I got inspired...
[ID: Digital art of Simon Fairchild, a white man with white hair, wearing a suit. The jacket has a green and pink Hawaiian shirt style pattern on it, the vest and pants are green, the tie is pink. He is also wearing a black top hat with a pink stripe and cloud shaped earrings. He carries a black cane with a gold top. End ID]
I also gave him socks and sandals because they fit his vibes
I still get pissy every time I see an illustration like
because THAT! IS NOT! PROPORTIONAL! That is not an accurate diagram!!!
Here! Here is an actual image captured by the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft. THIS is what the distance between the Earth and the Moon actually looks like:
You are Simon Fairchild
You’ve been sentenced to 400 years for multiple murders. It’s been 399 years and your jailers are starting to get nervous.

ALRIGHT, HEAR ME OUT:
Plus bonus Dipper and Wendy:
HEAR ME OUT:
HOW THE HELL DID HE SURVIVE THAT FALL??? (S1E11)
Sure: there was landing but he still fell to the equivelant of like, ninety miles off the ground. AND HE JUST SUSTAINS NO INJURY???? Idc if this is cartoon logic, soos now serves an eldritch fear god in my book.
Plus why he looks like Mike Crew in the drawing:
I have a feeling that he wouldn’t even realize he serves the vast and once he finds out he’s just be like: “oh, that’s pretty cool!” Thumbs up.
CMON GALS, YOU GET ME RIGHT?
(P.s all of my TMA x GF works will be under the tag ‘Spirit’s TMA x GF au’)
Do you guys think that the statements would taste different for whatever fear it is. I feel like they would, so I made a list of what I think they would taste like.
Spiral: sour rainbow belts
End: green grapes
Eye: mint
Lonely: tomato soup
Vast: cotton candy
Corruption: apple that’s slightly gone bad
Flesh: beef
Hunt: chicken
Slaughter: that one red sour jelly thingy that you put on sour candies frkm like juicy drops
Desolation: spicy chicken
Dark: dark chocolate
Burried: potatoes
Extinction: green apple
Web: purple grapes
Stranger: bubble gum
so imagine being jon after the coma and reading a statement and it’s like BAM!! BUBBLE GUM. !
Me and my friend made a horrid creation called a fear sandwich, each ingredient is based of a tma fear.
1. The end: the bread, specifically the butt end of the bread that had been slightly burnt by the manufacturer.
2. The fleash: some kind of mystery meat. A horrid combination of a bunch of different meats.
3. The slaughter: a nother meat, but it has metal shavings in it.
4. The hunt: a mixed greens but it's poison ivy and grass. (With a bit of blood on it)
5. The desolation: a REALLY hot sauce, like inhumanely spicy.
6. The buried: an entire truffle. Dirt and all.
7. The dark: just squid ink. Way more than is necessary.
8. The lonely: a single very sweet pickle that does not go well with the rest of the sandwich.
9. The vast: a thousand island dressing that is actually just salt water. It's also really cold.
10. The corruption: very moldy cheese, it's just all mold, with maggots in the senter, as a suprise.
11. The eye: one of those toothpicks that goes through the sandwich holding it together. It also has a little olive with the capsicum in the middle of it on top. (The olive is uncomfortably moist)
12. The spiral: a very strangely cut onion that doesn't even really taste like onion, but you can't tell exactly what it tastes like, so you just sit there in mild confusion and terror of what you just ate.
13. The stranger: a sausage that you think is normal meat but is actually a vegan sausage.
14. The extinction: a very rare very endangered animal filled with micro plastics.
15. The web: what looks to be sesame seeds on the bread, but are actually very small spider eggs. (It's a delicacy in some places, it would be rude not to have it)
A million notes and I will attempt to make it. (Please don't I don't want to make this. I don't even know where to get half of these ingredients)

I made a graph of my alignments based on a WHOLE bunch of quizzes I took, each “one” is a different quiz. This isn’t the most accurate as I tend to view myself as aligned to the Eye, the Spiral, and then Vast in third, but it was fun to take overall.
Do you guys think that vast avatars like having wet socks? I mean normally your socks get wet when your out in the rain soooooo.
Avatars of different tma fears reactions when being faced with the question “would you still love me if I was a worm?”:
The Eye: “I’d put you in a little enclosure for safe keeping. Probably take notes on you.”
The Lonely: “absolutely not.”
The Web: “why of course I would!.” [lying]
The Spiral: “but you are a worm? You always have been one. How could you have forgotten? You are so silly!”
The Spiral: “but you are a worm? You always have been one. How could you have forgotten? You are so silly! No I’m sure I haven’t said that before...”
The Corruption: “if you were a worm I would marry you on the spot!”
The Buried: “yes, but I’d probably put you back in the dirt where you belong.”
The Hunt: “no, I’d use you as bait.”
The Slaughter: “I’d put you in a blender just to watch as you get ripped into tiny worm shreds.”
The Flesh: “well with how ugly you are you might as well already be a worm.”
The Vast: “I’d probably step on you on by accident, woops lol.”
The Dark: “as long as I don’t have to look at you then sure.”
The Stranger: “why of course! You would be so much easier to dissect at that size!”
The Desolation: “nahhh I’d probably use a magnifying glass to set you on fire to be honest.”
The End: “sure why not, you’ll die eventually anyway. You being a worm would just hasten that fact.”
Boy I sure hope TMA doesn’t have any statements that make me afraid of the vastness of water. That sure would suck considering swimming is my primary hobby. (Foreshadowing)
oh to spend my days gallivanting across the globe on the fairchild dime, visiting all the top amusement parks, riding rollercoasters to my heart’s content, and feeding my fear god by meeting people in line, saying chaotically cryptic things, and then trapping them on a upside down loop that stretches into the sky far longer than it should and culminates in a longer than normal pause at the top where you can see EXACTLY how high you are before plunging back down to the ground at a 90 degree angle. maybe for a vacation i’ll have dinner at the top of the eiffel tower and then yeet someone out the window after i pay my check. simon pls lmk where i sign up

Since the recent Protocol episodes have made it topical, can we talk about how the ocean is like… the perfect blend of the Buried and the Vast?
So massive and omni-present when you’re within the waters, and full of countless unknowable creatures who outnumber you and dwarf you entirely—but also, so deep and dark and choking with the pressure of the water all around you and the complete lack of breathable air… I don’t know. The two are said to be complete opposites but they coexist so perfectly in the ocean
