Internal consistency is still a thing, though, and you should at least try to apply it. :P

That simply makes it sound like a rather poor attempt to shoehorn in crossovers with that trait.
Does it honestly matter that much?
Considering that void is a main part of the universe, yes. Because that raises the question of whether void created weapons also would shapeshift and whether by forcing it to adopt the form of an entity that would be Creation-linked, what would happen.

Don't expect Bethany and Keith to do anything anytime soon. They're going to have to wait it out seeing as NO ONE in the group has sufficient finances to pay for the cure. Short of Shys'm Caes taking pity and summoning a large quantity of antimatter, they won't be bale to afford the cure.

The issue is, there is no consistency to the Void, except that it's inconsistent. it is wholly defined by the expectations and point of view of those there, to the point that the very fabric of what is changes on a constant basis, only held in stasis by the expectations and viewpoints of beings inside it.

Quite simply, simply by being in Creation, any substance of Void must either conform to the expectations of Creation or be expelled, which is why they must fit into some sort of pattern, the easiest being the conceptual narrative of living beings.

Think of them like the classes in Fate/Stay Night.

They have certain characteristics that they MUST follow to fit the archetype.

yes, they can ignore some features, but only insofar as they do not flaw the validity of the persona they've taken up, or else they are summarily exiled to whence they came.

If the only consistency in the void is its inconsistency, then it should be consistently inconsistent, which it is not as certain factors within it are indeed consistent.

Did you two check with @Elf for who had the STD in the first place?

The fact that it is still a place where an external observer's perception distorts it which is perfectly consistent. If it were consistently inconsistent, wouldn't the influence of observers randomly vary? Or am I thinking about this the wrong way?

Also, what happens if that perception forces a void entity into the form of something tied to Creation?

No human market. Some other entities do.

((Up to @Kj to define the economics of those fear entities.))

That would require them to actually search up the lore. Otherwise, they wouldn't know.
Maybe they're fanabominations?
Iunno.

If the only consistency in the void is its inconsistency, then it should be consistently inconsistent, which it is not as certain factors within it are indeed consistent.
But that would require it to be inconsistently consistent, since even consistent inconsistency is a consistency.

...Um, is it strictly sexually transmitted? Or is this our cue to quarantine the party?

It was stated to be an STD. Keep Kyle away from both of them and we'll be good.

Usually? They roll with it, I mean they're constantly changing normally, not like the form's anything odd for them. And naturally, the Void has no consistent rules, eternally existing in all possible states at once, but the simple act of a being observing it causes those myriad possibilities to collapse into a single one that fits the intent and perception they bring with them.

Yeah, but STD's aren't necessarily only transmitted that way. Often they may be transmitted various other bodily fluids.

...Is that basically quantum mechanics with extra solipsism?
