Serpentine Squiggles

Corrupt Combustion is currently a series of lore post and story summaries, notes for an ambitious potential Murder Drones fanfic that takes serious inspiration from Jujutsu Kaisen.

How would I pitch it?

Sometimes, dead drones explode. The technical term is absolute combustion. Oil burns, light flares, heat spills out‍—but there’s more. It’s all wrong. Not tongues of flame, but holographic lines of aberrant code. The hands splay and the screen flashes, radiating an alien shape with three prongs. And the dead come burning back to life.

The gates of Cabin Fever are open, and the dead roam the frozen wastes. Above it all, Nori Doorman caries the whole world on her shoulders. Yeva and Alice are nothing but insects in her shadow.

But who is the sun? And what moon could eclipse it?
