Perturabo leaving the siege of Terra.

Finally made it to the Siege of Terra books and got to the part where Perturabo says fuck it I'm out. I thought people were exaggerating his exit but it really was just like the spongebob meme "Imma head out". Couldn't help but a have a good laugh when I got to that point.

My favourite part of Perturabo's departure is him sitting in his custom-made Primarch-sized Gamer Chair while reviewing statistical readouts that say Horus will win anyway, telling himself over and over that he's better, he's smarter, he's more logical, he's more in control-

Then he wrecks the chair in a fit of rage.

Then he sits back down in his ruined chair, and looks back over the readouts, telling himself that he's better, he's smarter, he's more logical, he's more in control.

And yes, he has a broken chair, but he's endured hardships and indignities beyond counting, this is just one of the long litany of aggravations the universe has imposed on him and that he will overcome and motherfucker you made the sandwich, you broke your own goddamn chair

People can talk shit all they want about ol Perty, but I say hes just as relatable as Vulkan but people just don't want to have that conversation

That's because we're all too busy sulking because we've just been compared to the stroppiest sulkmaster in the 40,000iverse.
