I'm largely caught up. Seems like it's not impossible for someone to have a "tier" of item in this game, as Mikal put it. I doubt Resurget (been meaning to mention that I love the Mushishi pfp, great show) would choose to present that as scum after all the sus that has been thrown at Luna for his specification that he has a tier. I didn't know if Mikal was just going down a rabbit hole or not with this, but this clearly throws a wrench into his view that specifying the type of item/critter is inherently scummy.
I also can't say I read Luna's frustration as scummy - I think it's NAI since he's bound to be frustrated whether he's scum or town based on this fixation - but the claim sets me off a bit. Not so much for the existence of a loom in game (again, I don't know enough about Terraria to speak on that), but on the Strengthener claim, specifically. Since similarity to the Wiki has been mentioned, I'll say straight up that there's not a lot on the Wiki about my character, so there's not much to copy. The details of my justification aren't obvious from reading it, so Mikal may be onto something there.
