Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.
Well, Tyrion can now prove everyone wrong and save his family (and himself)!
Tywin's greatest weakness was his pride. He could never let any slight, no matter how small, go. And he couldn't admit having made a mistake, either, imho.
Drowning, or other ways.
Chapter 48: The Kinslayer
‘For a scholar, it's often very discouraging to see how many laypeople have romanticised or even utterly wrong notions about the past based on myth and mummers’ tales. While they are perfectly aware that their own customs are not as binding as some might claim, and...
Chapter 214: A Brand New Year Part 4
Alliance Headquarters, Brussels, Belgium, Earth, January 1st, 2002
“I am still surprised you two finally admitted your feelings.”
Daniel was her friend, Samantha Carter reminded herself. She wouldn’t snap at her friends even though their - well-meaning, to...
People with such powers as they have tend to split up some religious communities.
Yeah. They haven't gone on a killing spree.
Yeah. If the Westerosi nobles were more reckless/cruel/stupid, that could have happened.
Chapter 47: Lines Crossed
‘Some scholars attribute the impact the Succession left on the realm to the Ruby Order, and one cannot ignore the fact that their presence shaped the Seven Kingdoms for decades to come, politically as well as culturally. However, one also must not underestimate the...
Catra would, of course, insist that Adora was perfect and no one would go for herself instead - she's got it bad (and has some self-esteem issues)
Catra: How did we let one of those people into the Alliance?
Glimmer: How do you think we could deny them if we let you and Hordak in?
Chapter 213: A Brand New Year Part 3
Alliance Headquarters, Brussels, Belgium, Earth, December 31st, 2001
"You can't duel him, Sea Hawk. Duels are illegal on Earth."
"We could go to space! Adventure!"
"No, we can't - duels are illegal across the Alliance."
"What? Since when?"
"Since the...
I do not like the whole Lovecraft stuff. No, the danger is not to their sanity, but to their morals. To not turn into a monster faced with Westeris being Westeros.
Tyrion is well aware of the danger the team represents.
Yeah. Especially if you also have to remind them far too often that you have modern morals.
Nothing poses a physical threat to them.
As today's chapter hows, it's a bit more complicated.
It's a bit complicated.
Chapter 46: Lessons
'Another theory popular amongst those who do not pursue a career in academia is that the Ruby Order was originally from Braavos. Anyone looking at the sources, or applying the slightest shred of critical thinking, will immediately perceive the lack of any sources supporting...
Chapter 212: A Brand New Year Part 2
Alliance Headquarters, Brussels, Belgium, Earth, December 31st, 2001
“Oh, look - Jack’s jealous!”
“What?” Adora turned towards Catra, making sure her drink didn’t spill. “Jealous?”
“Look at Sam dancing.”
Oh. Their friend was dancing with a French officer...
Chapter 45: Knives Out
‘Another popular misconception that has spread folk tales into the academic discourse is focused on the relationship between the Ruby Order and the Faceless Men. Once again, examining the sources quickly disproves the idea that thanks to the Blessings of the Seven, the...
Chapter 211: A Brand New Year Part 1
Alliance Headquarters, Brussels, Belgium, Earth, December 31st, 2001
Catra studied her reflection in their quarters’ mirror, turning her head slightly to check how she could present her best side without looking as if she were posing. They had barely made...
Chapter 44: Hidden Blades
‘Contrary to the beliefs of some people, both those in favour and those opposed to the notion, the Ruby Order, even though founded and led by four women, wasn’t a bastion of equality between the sexes. As the founding charter makes it clear, the Ruby Order had a strict...
