TwinStorm He/Him Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 10 hours ago, Ookla the Inconclusive said: Shoe threw his ax to the ground, where it hit in such a way that the hilt stuck almost completely upright in the dirt. What? he asked sharply. "Shoe, listen. You're the best of us. You've always been. Don't let that man destroy you. Don't go down my path." 52 minutes ago, Ookla the Bacon said: Bacon hummed to himself thoughtfully. "You're a tricky one, Subversion. Maybe one day I'll understand you." He turned to Lady Bug and sighed. "What do you think?" @oOklA thE shInyYyy "Excellent!" exclaimed Selppaenip. "We just show those things are true, and they let you go?" Bacon frowned. "It looks like a blade to me. Are you sure it's not?" The doctor informed me you were unable to tell her what these were, Charles said. Do think you will, with closer inspection? "Fun!" said Bacon. "Are you any good at crosswords?" "Hide what from me?" asked Bacon, curious. Trellin glanced at it. "Pineapple." he said. "Number 17 is pineapple." 1 hour ago, Ookla the Inquisitive said: Kion smiles. “Caring is important, and I hope you - and me, for that matter - stay that way. Speaking of which, we’re not going to create anyone who needs our help, so does that mean we’ll show up with by some other Thread focuses? By which I mean people the words seem to follow, even if they’re not Narrators.” Rebus, finishing his negotiation with the Antimatterlanders, concedes the point. “I wasn’t saying those things had no worth. At least until I stop being a complete Author expy, I love fantasy and play D&D. But I think the Thread is a bit oversaturated with pure fantasy, and mixing magic with technology is both cool and powerful.” He gestures around himself to the antimatter planet and the force fields he’d wrapped around himself, the antimatter utility fog he’d narrated, and the flying train, high above him. “None of this would have been possible without both magic and technology. And I’m going to make it even better in a few minutes, once I can hide this part from Bacon.” He snickers, imagining what is to come. As a consequence of Kion’s Narrator spell stunt (and of course, attempting and failing badly to fight Sequence), the Render is a bit Thread aware. “Where is the conductor, then? You will make one for me, or I will drive the train myself. Wait. You can just bring me to my quarry directly. The other Narrator did not wish to do that. There is probably a train station, can you put me there?” Trellin shrugged, and teleported him to a train station.

Well, you are the one who has no respect for my creations! The Scribe sent this in a note with a weight attached to it, falling slightly to the right. The squirrels returned. Asher shot some of fire at the strands. "The only one who is dying today is gonna be you" at this point asher didn't care who he was, he was gonna die. finally someone to kill!

"Hide what from me?" asked Bacon, curious. The Great Wizard shook his head. “Almost certainly not. I’ll likely get a prison sentence at best.” 1 hour ago, Ookla the Arbiter said: It was the same decoy, there again. If you knew what I knew, Unintelligible, you'd be impressed I let him live for that long. And Cricket was very close to killing him. After I killed Hidel, do you know what Cricket felt? Relief. Do you know what Hidel felt? Peace. It needed to be done. Unintelligible sighed. “Look, I’m not upset that you killed him. I was going to kill him too. After Shoe had finished interrogating him. Would it have been that bad to wait a few seconds?” 11 hours ago, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: Perseus followed, shouting his eyes tightly. "We can't do anything else here, Shoe. Let's go." Moni and Perseus tumbled through the air for what felt like an interminably long time, then smashed into the ground with enough force to crack the rocks at their feet. They were both completely unharmed. “Well, glad that worked.”

Eight hundred miles southeast of where we should be. If you see somebody, stay away until you know they're real. This is the Faceless' breeding grounds."

Through the Living Heir he/him Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 1 hour ago, Ookla the Bacon said: "Hide what from me?" asked Bacon, curious. When Bacon appears, Rebus begins to laugh harder and freezes time - or rather Narrates things into less time than they should take, so he can fit in his monologue. “My foreshadowing, of course! I was going to Bacon the Bard, Bacon the Bard, Bacon the Bard you once there were some things in the way, so you didn’t know what was going on here, but it worked anyway!” Rebus’s utility fog closes around the two scientists on the empty wasteland, for they are the only things in the place that need protecting from what is about to happen. “There was going to be a monster threatening Antimatterland, but you noticed me before I got around to it. Actually…” A very large but very slow monster appears close by, though it moves too slow to threaten them in a reasonable amount of time. “There we go! The scientists wanted our plastic so they could fight it. I hope the death a copy doesn’t harm you, because as you may know, Antimatterland is made from antimatter. Thus, here you behave like antimatter in a normal matter environment. Under you-don’t-fall-till-you-look-down logic, you should explode … now.” The utility fog around Rebus and the two scientists flips to mirrored to protect them from the blast. 46 minutes ago, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: Trellin shrugged, and teleported him to a train station. The Render goes to buy a ticket, or rather to intimidate and/or stow its way onto the correct train, for it does not have any money.

That's not the problem Unintelligible. I can be in any number of places at once. It's not that I'm too busy, it's something else. Shoe and Beotsa are distracted doing this. You and Cricket were there too. Which means that besides the people on the train, who already kicked me out (very rudely, I might add), most people were either here or at the trial. I can feel that something big is going to go down at the trial, and it will be important for all of you to be there. Just trust me, that action was critical.
NameIess Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 A traveler stands at the border of Onyx’s realm. At her side is a sword, on her back is a pack filled with supplies, and in her hands she holds a poorly-drawn map. Actually, I’d better rephrase that. A traveler stands on what might be the border of Onyx’s realm with a sword she has no clue how to use, a pack with only a day’s food left, and a map that looks like it was drawn by a blind man with hand tremors. ”Well,” she says, resisting the urge to crumple the map into a ball, toss it to the ground, and stomp on it. “This is going well.” Then she steps across the invisible line that may or may not have marked the boundary between Onyx’s realm and the rest of the thread. @Ookla the Bacon 5 minutes ago, Ookla the Arbiter said: That's not the problem Unintelligible.
