I see your hilariously random comic and raise you... something.

What would Neverthere do, theoretically, if Sam and Revolution stumbled across her secret hiding place and bugged her all day?
-
Oh Allison. What has the mean glowing red object in the sky done to you?

I don't know who Radriar is, but I can tell you with 95% certainty that's he's not from the Cosmere. In any case, I'm pretty sure that this is Wild Mass Guessing. So stop dragging your nammy pammy logic into this thread.

That's a pretty good idea. Apart from the aforementioned slowness that plagues my RP posts. Am I the only one concerned that Brandon Sanderson's going to a party tonight instead of answering our AMA questions? I mean, he's an adult who's allowed to do anything he wants, but my inner Selfishness Alarm went off as soon as I read about the party.

You Know You're a Sanderfan When...

When you think naming a dog "Sparky" is downright obscene. -
...If I weren't so slow with my RP posts as it is, I'd ask to adopt him. For some reason I find him really intriguing.

While all other Epics barricade themselves in their quarters and refuse to walk at all.

Huh. It seems like, once again, I've failed to understand Funtimes' unique perspective on life.
-
Both insults are accurate, for once. I've been thinking, by the way, and what I think we need is a duel between Funtimes and the Hated One. Could Funtimes transform his despicable Legos? How long before she would realize that her attempts at creating new shoes for herself are futile? And how far can the Hated One run before glittery justice catches up to him?

If I can find the vectors I'd need.

I have a new favorite Quota scene.
-
Ouch. Sorry to hear that. Well, not sorry that the rewrite will be more humiliating.

Being compared to a panther is undoubtedly a favorable description. The name evokes a series of thoughts and adjectives, all of which lend themselves towards visualizing a swift, powerful, exotic, and cunning creature. Who wouldn’t want to be compared to such a beast? But while the word “panther” is useful in simile, it’s a tad more complicated when used for zoology. The word “panther” can refer to several large cats in the world. The leopard of Africa and Asia is often called by this name, as is the cougar of North America. The jaguar of South America usually isn’t, but when all-black jaguars are born they are called “black panthers” along with leopards born with the same genetic trait. While these three cats are the only ones commonly called panthers, any member of the subfamily Pantherinae can technically be called such; this group encompasses most big cats except for cheetahs and cougars. In this respect, then, the word “panther” can refer to any of the feline apex predators of the world. Are you beginning to find this definition confusing? You’ve seen nothing yet; artists and scholars in Europe’s Middle Ages had often never seen a big cat in person, and thus began using the word “panther” to describe all number of strange mythical beasts. One account describing a beast called a panther describes the animal as a large predator that sleeps in caves. Every three days the so-called “panther” will wake up and breathe out a sweet smell that lures prey animals to their doom. No such animal exists, let alone in the cat family--but even that mythical panther is closer to reality than the horned and hooved dragons inexplicably called “panthers” in some medieval heraldry. All things considered, the word “panther” is best used for similes--the word should probably be avoided in zoology unless you make it perfectly clear what animal you’re talking about.

He'd probably be too busy complaining about how he couldn't find any fruits to stir into the yogurt to notice. How silly of me for bringing it up.
-
Thinking through the implications of this reminds me that Lightwards and Timeport both should eat abundant quantities of yogurt after every resurrection to replenish the benign digestive bacteria that live in human bodies. Is this a problem?
-
At least, in Heaven, they're given front-row cloud seats to watch Numnums eating Timeport. So Timeport's corpses disappear when he resurrects?
-
I suppose hoping for the girls to have a chance to sneak away during the trifecta's terror was an unrealistic hope anyway. But on the bright side, Numnums is now a hero of the RP. Even if eating such a vile creature as Timeport will probably make him sick.
-
Do we know if this is still going on? Has the AMA concluded, or am I overreacting to the wait between now and the last question answered for even thinking so?
-
The worst part is that he could turn the toilet paper into steel when he's finished. More seriously, my mother suggested that Steelheart's Rending was conquering Chicago. He killed thousands of people that day, and turned the entire city into steel. Maybe some Epics are more controlled and rational in their Rendings than others.
-
He toilet-papered Jonathan Phaedrus' house. That's why Prof hates him so much.
-
An Epic of Steelheart's level--especially if his Rending took place in the blackest part of the night--could quite easily have destroyed a small town so quickly that no one could get any pictures clear enough to identify him from.
-
If he killed enough people--everyone within an entire small town--is it possible that it might have been known that an Epic destroyed a town, without anyone knowing who the responsible Epic was?
-
Yes, but stranger things than camera evidence being faked have happened in the setting. For all we know there's an Epic whose primary ability is altering film.
