Context: "A Bad Name" is a Gamer-style story in the Worm Universe, with an Original Character as the Gamer. It is written by Potato Nose, and I've only ever read it on Spacebattles - I don't know if its posted elsewhere. Highly recommend it, its worth the read. My handle on that forum is Ike. This Omake deals with how I think people really would react if they had a power like what the Gamer gives, without the context of being an SI knowing the story in advance. And especially how Taylor could reasonably react, given the shit she's gone through.
I Have WHAT Stats?
"What the fuck."
"What on earth happened to Hebert?"
"When did she become so... hot?"
"I dunno, but I'm definitely gonna ask her out!"
"No me, asshole! You laughed at her in the locker 2 weeks ago anyway, she probably hates you!"
"You did too! That means she hates you too!"
"Fuck you!" And that was when the first punch was thrown.
Taylor smiled a little smile as she walked past the group of gangbanger-lite that were now brawling over her - Her, ugly little Taylor Hebert! - out in front of her school today. Sure, it may not make her a superhero, but she was very glad she went with her gut reaction when she awoke after... the locker.
~Flashback~
"Wait, what? I have... a Charisma stat? I wonder what that does, and why its so low..."
AN: Because maybe sometimes Taylor wants to just be a pretty teenage girl, too.
