I am beyond greatful for all of you guys, you have seriously improved my hope for humanities survival and future. Before I met you guys, I was starting to think that the world was hopeless. Now though... well, I made a short story that I think explains how you've changed my perspective. ^_^

The stars watched humanity struggle, writhe, and moan at the ripples coming from their own choices. "Didn't they realize what would come?" Thought the stars, "Didn't they pay attention? How can they be sad at their own choice? Don't they know that they will be gone in the blink of an eye? If any one of us was to go out, they would be worried! But, if their own star died, they would just disappear! And yet... for having lives that are so short, they accomplish so much..." Then the stars realized something about humanity, something they hadn't considered before. Humanity, with its destruction and creation, beauty and death, horror and kindness; humanity has survived several of their eye-blinks. "Ten thousand years or more pass each time we blink, yet now we see Obama, now we blink, now we see trump! What has happened? What has caused this change?" They whisper. And then they discovered a beautiful, terrible, frighteningly amazing truth. The change was humanity. They that seemed so insignificant, so worthless, so meaningless compared to the infinite of the universe; they had, by their very nature, changed the way that the stars perceive time. An infinite of watching and the first thing that any of them truly saw... was humanity on its small blue sphere. "How?!?" They cried, their despairing confusion evident, "How could such small creatures be so impossibly vibrant that they change time itself? How can they make it obey them as they do?" And then a whisper came, a whisper from beyond reality. A whisper from a dying god. "They are because they must be. They are capable of impossible things, they can harness and control light and life and even time itself! All because they are capable of belief. And when one believes, and can harness that belief as mankind does... then one can do anything." And the stars stared in horrified wonder at the tiny, self-destructive race that would rule their future. And they hoped and despaired... and they admired.

Thanks to you, THIS is how I now view the world. Thank you all. :)

You have scared me. Now when I look up at the night sky, I will say sorry a hundred times.

Oh god. Goh od.

Twi has changed her username. Thanks Ookla (the dogged, not the pug whisperer although that's not bad. It's just confusing.)

What the abbreviation? What am I thinking? Now there are X Ookla (how to say more than one name, like Sally plural or James plural?)s

I was wondering how many servants my epic would have.

 

Argon had somewhere around a dozen (6 was half), but he also lied about his powers and to seem weaker. So, since he acted less important, I assume he got less servants, but I'm not sure.

 

So how many would he have?

Edit: Forgot to say who my epic was.

For those who want to figure it out, it's wordplay about "the Demon that rises from the Bottomless Void".

For those who just want to know:

 

 I'm Chasmfiend

Oh hey, it's the Question thread! I haven't been on one of these in a while . . . I think I'd like to come back into the rp (if my 2 posts count as being in it in the first place). It's approaching the holidays, so I'll have more time. But I think I'd need a different character. Magnolia was meh. I have an epic named Lightweaver (guess what her powers are, I'm so original) could I use her? And maybe a different thread besides Astoria too . . . 

Sorry, I'm rambling. :)

It is very strange suddenly being in here.  I feel like I just fell through a trap door in the Shard and into the scary basement.

Now I'm reminded of a joke a while back about Shiny Sparkle and her "therapy basement." :ph34r::P 

Though that description is highly accurate.

So, maybe I should honor the Ookla spirit more but, without wanting to be rude, who are you?

Uhm Twi, just what are you planning to do with Kaymith and should we be worried or jealous? :P

Just remember - if you damage me permanently, I'll never get to finish that fanfic that everybody has totally forgotten about because I'm a slacker.

I actually remember that fanfic. 

Also, I don't think pain or injury would be the problem. :mellow:

I'm using NaNo to start the rough draft of the next book (maybe further) so that I can pick my momentum back up enough to finish the final revisions of book one.  There's some timeline stuff that I really need to hash out to make it all work together, and to do that I need to know where I'm going.

Well, not everybody. ;) 

Oh, my loyal beta readers.  Where would I be without you?

May I read?

As things are completed, I plan on putting them up on the Cosmere Fanfic board.  Swift as Steel just needs some final revising before it's ready for primetime.  The rest is going to get done as it gets done, but I definitely have to get through it all.  I need to finish shaking out my rookie writer mistakes on this stuff before I can really start working on original fiction.
