Question 5

[mail-mi he/him]

My favorites are Dakota Wheat and London Finch, though the name "Angel" is pretty good too. (Anyone who takes Timeport out of the world is an angel in my book.  )

 

I like Twi's suggestion too though. "Zoe Finch," perhaps?

 

"Angel Zoe Finch, though my friends call me AZ." 

 

I like it

[Jo and the Bush all/any]

Angel Zoe Finch, I like it.

It's so weird when people accidentally say my last name on these forums.

How exactly is she going to take out Timeport?

            RAAAAAAAAFFFFFFFOOOOOOOOO!!!

You're Joe Finch? Well, Zoe is only one letter different. New headcanon: AZ Finch is Joe's cousin who also lives in Portland.

Headcannon accepted

[Jo and the Bush all/any]

No, no guys, Finch is not my last name. I was referencing what Twi said. And that was supposed to be white, you stupid Laggy Internet.

Wait, what? And it was white.

[Mailliw73 he/him]

Any of you have name ideas for Dustmaker? I think I might change it. The only ideas I have so far are Annihilator and Desolation.

[Jo and the Bush all/any]

It wasn't when Mail-mi quoted it.

 

How about just Dust?

[TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her]

I dreamed Koschei and a few other Oregon characters were mentioned in Calamity.

I'm really hoping this is a sign or something.

[Kobold King he/him]

How about "Excidium"? It's a Latin word for utter destruction, especially deliberate destruction perpetrated by an army or a conqueror.

 

While personally I love the name "Desolation" best, here are a few more random destruction-y names:

 

• Ravager
• Baneful
• Baleful
• Duststorm
• Dustlord
• Ruin

Of course, you could always incorporate his search for an Epic name into his storyline, à la the Deathpoint thread.

We can hope so.

 

Imagine if he did reference Oregon, but only by briefly mentioning an Epic with the ability to generate infinite Sausage McMuffins.

"He had a girlfriend but I can't remember her name."

[Edgedancer he/him]

You're going next, Edge, right?

I´ll post something in a couple of hours, feel free to post something yourself until then, should you want to.

And if we are unlike he only canonizes the bad ones like Koschei and Nighthound. Maybe by someone arguing against David about how "normal" Epics are not redemable in the slightest.

Tenesy D Raptor.

 

For some reason I just had to think about magazines for Epics talking about the new boy/girlfriend of powerful High Epics ect and then all the Reckoners start reading gossip press in hope of finding something about their weaknesses.

"Well, what about Voidgaze? Sweetest Epic who ever lived. Used to make waffles for people--un-poisoned waffles, by the way."

"She's an urban legend."

"What about the waffles?"

"So are the waffles. Waffles have always been an urban legend."

"Oh yeah? What about this old restaurant called Waffle House? How do you explain THAT?"

[Kobold King he/him]

"Oh please. Next you'll be arguing for the existence of Doctor Funtimes."

"Actually, there's a substantial body of evidence--"

"There was no such thing as Doctor Funtimes!"

 

(True story: when I was a little boy, my father used to tell me that there was only one Waffle House in the whole world, and that it moved around from location to location appearing only to those who truly wanted waffles. I believed him at the time, which is why I'm so skeptical about everything he says today. )

"What else are you so pesimistic about? Next, you´re going to claim that the Uniyciclist isn´t real either!"

"Do you really belive in a man playing a flaming bagpipe, while riding a unicycle and wearing both a kilt and a Darth Vader mask?"

"I´m telling you, I have seen him! He took his girlfriend out to a double date with Voidgaze and big Al."

"Have you been close to Thoughttown, by any chance?"

"Yes, that´s exactly where I saw them!"

"You do know that place is ruled by an Illusionist, right?"

 

You guys know the best thing Firefight did for us?

The whole parallel Universe thing means that even if Brandon should give a canon re-telling of the events in Oregon, we can still be totally cannon in a parallel Universe.

A parallel universe accessible by a canon character. She just became my favorite.

My first thought upon reading that was that Milton Towren was actually knocked unconscious in the scene with the school bullies, and the entire RP has been his comatose dream. CorpseMaker represents the bullies who tormented him, Lightwards represents his cruel and apathetic teachers, while Funtimes represents his inner child. The various Thoughttown Epics represent what different parts of Milton aspire to be.

 

Flashpoint, simple but kind and well-loved, is what Milton's more emotional side wishes for himself. Sightline, the mysterious badchull with a tragic past capable of taking on any bully, is what Milton fantasizes himself being. Intervention represents a darker part of himself that might turn to delinquency to avoid his troubles, either by participating in gang violence or by engaging in underage drinking. Scorch represents the part of Milton that wishes to be loved and accepted by his bullies--a part of him that died when they knocked him out.

Sam, in that same vein, is the cute goth girl he admired from afar but never spoke to for fear of rejection. Revolution is his sister, a girl at the bottom of the social totem pole but strangely content and even somewhat cool in her position. Nighthound is his Id, the darkest, least restrained part of his personality that he both fears and views as useful in his current plight.

What´s timeport then? His fear of having to hand in assignments at their due dates?

Interesting question. You see, one of his teachers was a student teacher that year. Far from being the bright-eyed idealistic sort most associate with a molder of young minds fresh out of university, this student teacher had a fondness for mind games and a somewhat twisted sense of humor. He liked to change the deadline for an assignment at the last minute, joking that if his students didn't have the assignment on his desk by the due date, he'd "break out the battleaxe." Milton knew he was joking, but the twisted, gleeful grin this teacher wore when he joked like that made Milton wonder if he might indeed show up with a battleaxe one day.

Fortunately, this student teacher was given a failing grade for his practicum when a little girl named Angel Zoe Finch showed up in her next class crying. This teacher took her tale to the principal, who reported the teacher and had him banished from the premises. Angel later reported this student teacher for stalking her with a battleaxe that turned out to be fake.

Rumors flew that Mr. Springfield, the US History teacher she cried to, offered to teach little Angel to shoot. True of not, she did to on to become quite the shot with a rifle.

Hmm, I think I'll go with Desolation.

Ooh, I like that idea. I'm going to use that.

We can't forget Mr. Nathsha's TA, a student in the grade above Milton's that was known only as Quota. Milton once went to him for help on a problem, but he left feeling shaken and that he couldn't even start the problem. He was turned in to the principal, however, by the freshman who was known for her childlike vocabulary and her obsession with glitter.
