Corrupt the adorableness of pugs with an Epic?

Is the password "PugHug25"?

I'd probably lurk just outside Twi's room so I can see what she's posting before she posts it. "Hey Twi! Posting something there? Bet I'm gonna upvote it when you're done! Ooh... is that a PM? Are you talking about weaknesses? Is it one I know? I promise I'll shut up if you tell me a weakness I don't know!" So no. It probably wouldn't affect my online activity.

Can... can I live in your backyard? I promise I'll only come out at night. You won't even know I'm there, unless you happen to be awake at 2:00 in the morning when I start howling at the moon. (Checks an entry off of the "Things About TwiLyght's Personal Life That Are None Of My Business But I'm Asking Anyway" list. )

I don't know if I want to sit on top of a patio shade all day in the Arizona sun. Especially not in leggings. (How do you wear those all the time without dissolving into a pile of sentient sweat, anyway? )
-
Can I come down the chimney in the middle of the night? Composition of the atmosphere: 75% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, 5% cat/dog hair.

Would announcing my plans to show up on your doorstep in a skirt, wig, and leggings freak your family out, or should I make it a surprise visit? Well that sucks. You probably wouldn't like our house right now, since it's summer and all of our exceptionally fluffy cats are shedding like crazy. You literally can't pet one of them without seeing a cloud of hair rising off of him and floating off into the air.

There's not a lot of things I won't do for MLP. Especially if you also happen to have brownies in the fridge at the current moment. Can you cuddle cats as effectively as you can cuddle pugs? Because I usually have a cat in my lap at any random time in the day.
-
Wait. There's a simple solution here... how quickly can we arrange a household swap, and do you think your family could tell the difference if I wore a wig and pretended to be you?
-
I've got to wait until this evening. My family got mad at me for watching all the new episodes alone as soon as they came out.

I'm imagining a torchlit daycare with the words "ABANDON HOPE, YE WHO ENTER HERE" written in a friendly multicolored font hanging above the entrance.

"Wow, Father. Those hellish sound effects are perfect for warning our congregation to live righteous lives." "...huh?" "The screams of the damned, fraying at our souls and clawing away at our sanity! You're responsible for that, right?" "Oh, no. That's just the nursery."

Am I alone in suspecting David will find something that is both horrifying and utterly gamechanging in the Knighthawk Foundry?

Having a Bad Day? Stop here for a Good Rant!
Kobold King replied to traceria's topic in General Discussion
Agreed. But you know what would be cool? If the character in Suicide Squad isn't the real Joker, and is actually just an insane prison inmate mimicking the real Clown Prince, who would then appear in person in a solo Batman movie. -
So you have... Old World Problems? ...I'll show myself out.

Or a bazooka. -
To be fair, the Avengers tried to minimize damage and casualties far more than Superman did. Megan is also described as extraordinarily attractive. Granted, we read the book through the viewpoint of a teenager with a crush, but Fortuity also seemed to agree that she was good-looking. I can't remember whether Regalia or Nightwielder were described as looking especially distinguished--if so, it might be an effect similar to the Returned from Warbreaker, in which Epics come to resemble their own ideal self-images.
-
Epics are hot. And this time, I don't just mean Obliteration. Here's a description of Deathpoint: And here's Big S himself: So that's at least two different instances of Epics being noticeably more fit than a normal human being. From an out-of-universe perspective, I feel that this detail is meant as a reference to a certain trope from comic books, in which male characters look like they should be lifting weights at a circus and female characters look like Barbie dolls that have undergone extensive plastic surgery. What I can't help but wonder is whether there's also an in-universe reason for this phenomenon. Does whatever DNA-voodoo that goes on in Epic mitochondria affect their appearances somehow? Do Epics feel an urge to hit the gym more often than a normal human? Was Calamity a fitness nut who only selects people who fits his high standards, with more muscular individuals like Steelheart receiving the best powers?

This is relevant: But yeah. This, to me, seems to indicate that they're going way overboard trying to recreate the Joker. I get that Heath Ledger left some pretty intimidating clown shoes to fill, but seriously? Tattoos? Metal teeth? -
Yeah. Only fifteen and she has one of the darkest backstories in the RP. ...How quickly can we get Protector Pug to The Dalles for some emergency cuddling?

So, they've released the first image of the Joker as he will appear in the DC Cinematic Universe film Suicide Squad. He will be played by Jared Leto, and will exist within the same continuity as Henry Cavill's Superman and Ben Affleck's Batman. Disclaimer: you may have guessed from my choice of thread that I'm not happy with this. I'm sure plenty of people will love this take on the character. But as for my thought on this image and this movie in general... Yeah... I'm not very happy with DC right now. -
I don't think there were ever "plans" to do that, per se. It was more of a "wouldn't it be terrifying if..." kind of thing. I still wouldn't mind finding some way to get that limit removed, though. I put it in to prevent him from being too powerful, unaware of just how obscenely overpowered later characters were going to be. Cool! Seeing an illusionist as the protagonist could be very neat, even if I liked Susan as a viewpoint character. That's still strange for me to wrap my mind around, since I had a cat named Neko who was essentially the feline version of Overly Manly Man.

Like Fortuity, would her precognition be frazzled by Funtimes' randomness? (How's that story going, by the way? I don't think I've heard anything about it in a while.)

I think when any of us are writing novels, every now and then we should think back to this RP and wonder how our characters would have reacted to the insanity of Oregon.
