    Wyvern - Worm AU fanfic

    Yeah. Especially since he'd been in a cell for most of the story, and probably didn't know much of anything about what Wyvern has been doing. He missed her annihilating the S9, including eating Crawler alive. He missed her obliterating the Machine Army and Nilbog. He even missed her showing off...

    Wyvern - Worm AU fanfic

    Some posters on SB have been arguing that's why he was so paranoid and aggressive on the issue; he didn't really have the same conviction of his own power that Lung did. So Lung would have been arrogantly confident and not jumped immediately to assuming that his minion was trying to betray or...

    Video Games General

    A heads-up: Square Enix is releasing a "new version" of Final Fantasy VII on Steam (no details on what the difference is). The present version will be re-named to "Final Fantasy VII – 2013 Edition" and no longer available for purchase, but still available to those who already own it. Anyone who...

    Everyone from QQ wake up as their Avatar, what's the first thing we do in real life?

    Float in the intergalactic void. My avatar is an old picture titled Total Outcast, it's a planet orbiting a red star in intergalactic space. The white background blobs are galaxies.

    All Alone [Worm AU]

    Ahhh. So the Animated do count as "unliving" matter to his ghosts. I wonder if they always count as unliving to powers, or if it's like Weld and they basically get a "treated as not alive when it's beneficial, treated as alive instead when that is beneficial" best of both worlds thing.

    Alea Iacta Est - a Worm AU Fanfic

    It does occur to me that since Leet's generally been relatively restrained in terms of the levels of violence he uses, he's probably got a ton of never-used designs for really nasty devices that he's never built that Butcher!Leet can make.

    Concerning Numbers of Guests

    According to the Spacebattles Rant Thread the number of Guests did spike there on Monday.

    Ever heard of the Gordian Knot? Solving a complex problem with a sword is as "brawn over brains" as it gets.

    General chat thread

    "Warriors and scholars" would likely be a historical equivalent. Probably because in most historical societies sports wasn't big enough of a deal to have a noticeable amount of "jocks" in the first place.

    The Slippery Slope [Worm AU]

    Coil's a sadist who makes excuses for his sadism, thus his fondness for torture. He's thinking about torturing her in a disposable timeline as he does regularly, which by definition has nothing to do with keeping her from "getting above" herself since it'll never actually happen. And of course...

    The Slippery Slope [Worm AU]

    I was re-reading this story thread, and wanted to respond to this. Consider this quote from the latest update: Here's the thing. Thanks to his injury Kaiser's position in the E88 is weakened. But, he knows Taylor's background and psychological profile, and that ambition or "strength" aren't...

    The Slippery Slope [Worm AU]

    And highly deniable. There's no physical evidence that the rifle was made to fire, and Coil being released like that gives the trooper a plausible reason to have fired. Oh, they'll no doubt be pretty sure it was her, but no way would they be able to prove it in court. Also, while Taylor had no...

    The Slippery Slope [Worm AU]

    Ha! Now this part made me genuinely laugh out loud.

    Balancing Like with Dislike

    Correct. I recall how the old City of Heroes forums (which were in a similar style as this one, if a much different subject matter) allowed downvotes, and yes; what you got was unpopular people getting mass-downvoted by other people with a personal grudge against them. So I have to agree with...
