Null Distance
A new cape shows up in Brockton Bay.
His power set looks suspiciously like Satoru Gojo’s.
Six Eyes. Infinity. Control over space.
This is going to cause problems.
----------------------------------------------------
This story takes place in the setting of Worm, a dark superhero web serial by Wildbow. If you haven’t read it before, that’s completely fine—you don’t need to know the story going in.
In this world, some people develop powers after extremely stressful or traumatic moments. These people are called parahumans, and their abilities can range from subtle tricks to things that can level buildings or warp reality. Because of that, society has had to adapt around them. There are government hero teams, villain groups, independent capes, and a lot of gray areas in between.
The story mostly takes place in Brockton Bay, a struggling coastal city where superpowered conflict is basically part of everyday life. Powers exist everywhere, and people are used to thinking about them in terms of limits, counters, and strategies.
This fic drops someone with the full power set associated with Satoru Gojo into that world—Six Eyes, Infinity, and control over space.
The idea isn’t just “strong character beats everyone.” The fun part is seeing how abilities like that interact with a setting where powers usually follow certain patterns and expectations.
If you’re familiar with Worm, you’ll probably recognize a lot of the world and characters. If you’re not, the story will explain what matters as it goes.
Either way, welcome to Brockton Bay.
