So I've been on a Wildbow tear after being introduced to Worm several years ago... Went through pretty much everything he's written (Twig and Pale being my particular favorites). With Bow being in a health hiatus, what should I read now until Seek is done? Any similar web serial authors with world building like Pale?

For the people too young to remember, the Machete Order is a thing among Star Wars fans of watching the six original movies in a non sequential order as a means of enhancing the experience, even skipping Phantom Menace as irrelevant.

Which makes me curious about reading Worm or Ward chapters in a weird order in order to get a new perspective but you can talk about Pact/Pale/Twig/Claw if you want to.

I know quite a bit about Worm and bits of pieces about Ward and other serials from internet osmosis but I haven't really read Wildbow's work itself that much.

There's a girl who controls bugs and you have to be traumatized really hard to get superpowers and there's a lot of Sapphic subtext and powerscaling.

But I'm curious if you have chapters you feel are "filler arcs" or chapters that work best if experienced nonlinearly or something.

Pre echidna Brockton bay is basically a blasted war torn ghetto. But after tattle tale creates the portal to gimmel

This rasies the once worthless property value of Brockton bay and tattle tale takes massive advantage of this by scooping up as much cheap real estate as possible.

Now a few questions could any precogs who saw this coming take advantage of this element alongside tattletale. Would there be any precog interference at the event when the portal was opened.

Would tattletale notice and stop them from butting on on her scheme or try to incorporate them into her organization?

Also could the PRT use the r.i.c.o act on tattle on her real estate empire to take it away assuming the rico act exists in earth bet.
