me realizing i can post this now that act 8 finally updated: :O
I touched on this in today’s update to the Jade post, but I think the joke here is that ‘pink wigglers’ and ‘human grubs’ are ambiguous on whether someone is filled with babies or worms/maggots. It’s an image of morbid fecundity; ‘mummies’ are filled with scarabs.
Here's a take I saw on twitter which I really like: 1.) Adult cherubs are driven to find a mate with a similar disposition to the sibling they devoured in their youth 2.) Calliope repeatedly tells Dirk by way of insult that he reminds her of Caliborn ==> 3.) Their entire struggle for narrative control is a convoluted form of pitch flirting
“I don’t have the slightest idea what it means that you’ve been dreaming in anime, John.”
