Voidus Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 The first time in fictional history that such an ending has been celebrated by characters and readers alike. Luckily Metronome was around or there would have been more casualties. He used his tremendous power to... Call the far more useful Epic named Anti-Metoria who showed up to protect the rest of the city from the impact. 1

Call the far more useful Epic named Anti-Metoria who showed up to protect the rest of the city from the impact. Turning the ending to the far less catchy "Rocks fall, Nighthound and company die but everyone else survives." 2
Blackhoof Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 If Winter is going away for a month, I think we are still waiting on Chase in Corvallis to out Iconoclast as an Epic in that van. Should we skip that, and Rainmaker just blast it anyway? Or just assume Chase identified him as an Epic off-screen, and Winter can recount it in detail in her next Chase post?
Blackhoof Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Jumpdrive's mobile buzzed as he steered his toy helicopters into place. One watched the mass of once-Gunsmoke, the other watching the fields and the demons there. Why do my cameras keep getting busted? he asked, watching as one of the ground cameras in the field was smashed by a crazed worker. Jumpdrive glanced down at the text - "Thank you for the information Jumpdrive. This is Queen Blossom. Are our surveillance cameras set up with thermal imaging?" - from Queen Blossom. Texting back a quick, "Not yet, excepting a few in key locations - Rainmaker's office, my office, and a few particular cells, and one I set up watching that energy Epic," Jumpdrive smiled as he thought of the nice new cameras with thermal and ultrasonic lenses he'd be getting from Knighthawk soon. He began tinkering with a few data tables, trying to identify where the Epic who'd caused this came from. The cameras had seen workers, mutated ones, charge from the van, one in particular who could change the vanillas to beasts, but there didn't seem to be any faces his recognition software identified. Downloading the owner's manual for some new camera mounts and a cool new helicopter, Jumpdrive look for a DVD to insert into one of the computers. How about, um, the second Avengers movie? It's got so many awesome things. He sat down and began to play the video, barely paying attention to the ensuing chaos. haha just saw this Supervillains tearing apart the world, and you release a SUPERHERO movie? Just insensitive, Marvel. Tasteless, even 3

Tasteless, even That reminds me in a few days according to our timeline Steelheart will seize Chicago, shortly afterwards the capitulation act will be passed. Time to get our Reckoners cell active. 1
Edgedancer he/him Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 That reminds me in a few days according to our timeline Steelheart will seize Chicago, shortly afterwards the capitulation act will be passed. Time to get our Reckoners cell active. The truth behind the Reckoner books is that Brandon wrote them to scare of the Epics, by showcasing that he knew how to kill them. Oh and Twi, how are we going to do the Autumn and Jack situtaion? I mean with time currently not passing around Vondra they'd probably have to run into Shiny first. Is that meeting going to happen or will we add them to the que?

Oh and Twi, how are we going to do the Autumn and Jack situtaion? I mean with time currently not passing around Vondra they'd probably have to run into Shiny first. Is that meeting going to happen or will we add them to the que? I say add them to the queue. I can't imagine Vondra wanting that meeting to happen, so I'd imagine that if she and Jack did get there when Shiny was still waiting, they'd be told to wait elsewhere or something like that.
Voidus Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Lucy is totally not Nevertheres BFF anymore. She's not inviting her to any of the torture parties she throws with Mary from now on. 3

I can't imagine Vondra wanting that meeting to happen, so I'd imagine that if she and Jack did get there when Shiny was still waiting, they'd be told to wait elsewhere or something like that. Alright then, will we let the new Epics start their interview with Reader then? I'd hate for them having to wait another month upwards. Lucy is totally not Nevertheres BFF anymore. She's not inviting her to any of the torture parties she throws with Mary from now on. Good, she'd only complain about the mess they'd make anyway... not that that will stop her complaining about the lack of invitation.

Those poor Epics, though. Shel Silverstein wrote about Lucentia once. Sour-Faced Ann, with your chin in your hand Won't you ever be pleased? You used to complain that you had no fur coat And now you complain of the fleas. 1

Luckily Neverthere is immune to all of Lucentias powers, even her almighty power of complaining. She can just switch her attention back to her body and pretend to be chastised for a while.
Edgedancer he/him Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 (edited) Probably. Those poor Epics, though. Shel Silverstein wrote about Lucentia once. Sour-Faced Ann, with your chin in your hand Won't you ever be pleased? You used to complain that you had no fur coat And now you complain of the fleas. Alright then, which of the "new guys" wants to go first or should we get all of them in a pm to make sure they catch this? We'd probably also could use another set of Reader posts, where he arrives at the church and gets his nose looked at by Baxter. Mail-mi? Oh and while I'm on it. Maiiliw, any chance for an Altermind post or do we want Funtimes to just interrupt the conversation at hand? Luckily Neverthere is immune to all of Lucentias powers, even her almighty power of complaining. She can just switch her attention back to her body and pretend to be chastised for a while. No one is immune to her complaining! Her complaining is the complaining that will pierce the Heavens! Edited September 21, 2015 by Edgedancer
Mailliw73 he/him Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Either option works for me. I forgot that you were waiting on me. Twi?
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 21, 2015 Author Posted September 21, 2015 Oh and while I'm on it. Maiiliw, any chance for an Altermind post or do we want Funtimes to just interrupt the conversation at hand? No one is immune to her complaining! Her complaining is the complaining that will pierce the Heavens! Whatever the case, I know how she'll make her entrance, so it's just a matter of whether Altermind wants to say anything and/or dismiss Voidgaze first. Creating a hole through which an Eldritch abomination can smite her?
Mailliw73 he/him Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 How about Funtimes shows up, cutting Altermind short? That way, I can give him a short response to Voidgaze, but it won't be a waste of a post.
Edgedancer he/him Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Creating a hole through which an Eldritch abomination can smite her? Tecnically yes but no one would move close to her complaining if they can avoid it. How about Funtimes shows up, cutting Altermind short? That way, I can give him a short response to Voidgaze, but it won't be a waste of a post. Work effiency, I see.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 21, 2015 Author Posted September 21, 2015 How about Funtimes shows up, cutting Altermind short? That way, I can give him a short response to Voidgaze, but it won't be a waste of a post. Sounds good. I won't be able to get it written until this afternoon, so if you wanted to do a post, go ahead.

That way, I can give him a short response to Voidgaze, but it won't be a waste of a post. Or Funtimes shows up, cutting Altermind in half. Then Takes Voidgaze to cut Nighthound, Neverthere and Lucentia in half while they're all nice and gathered together? 2

Then Takes Voidgaze to cut Nighthound, Neverthere and Lucentia in half while they're all nice and gathered together? Somehow, I get the feeling Voidgaze wouldn't be enthusiastic about this.
Mailliw73 he/him Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Twi, you go first. Voidus, I like how you think.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 21, 2015 Author Posted September 21, 2015 Twi, you go first. Voidus, I like how you think. All right. Could she just port into town, with the guards already expecting her, or would she need to stop at the border?
Edgedancer he/him Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 All right. Could she just port into town, with the guards already expecting her, or would she need to stop at the border? Counter question, would Funtimes even think about that she maybe should wait at the borders?
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 21, 2015 Author Posted September 21, 2015 Counter question, would Funtimes even think about that she maybe should wait at the borders? No, which is why I wanted to know if she could just waltz into Altermind's HQ, or if she'd be followed by irritated and panicked guards.
Mailliw73 he/him Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 She'd be followed by guards, for sure, but they'd know she was coming. They just don't expect people to waltz through Thoughttown. But they won't impede her, knowing how powerful she is.
