  1. What else do you do with a motivator?
  2. Seriously? I must see this.
  3. (20 kinda makes sense, though, since they're all OP )
  4. Thanks. I'm lined up now--by degree, not college, so I know I'm not in the wrong place. Now I wait. And wait.
  5. About to go to my graduation ceremony. What if I go to the wrong place? What if no one else from my college is there? What if I wear my regalia wrong? Aaarrrrghhhhh I read everything in the emails and I'm still confused!
  6. Ah, his unknown secondary. Will he ever use it against Steelheart, I wonder.
  7. You have good ideas. Sounds like a hilarious and in-character waste of a perfectly good plot development. Um….yes, probably. But…cheerier. Like a cross between Fortuity and Heath Ledger's Joker. ….I….I'm going to go scrub that image from my mind now.
  8. The slowness of this game might actually be an advantage in this case. Firefight came out just in time to change Funtimes' backstory and character arc, and I think it was an improvement. Once we get deep enough into the plot and characterization to write fear-facing scenes, Calamity will either be released or close to its release date. So I don't think we shouldn't plan that sort of thing where it fits, but if those scenes don't wind up happening until after Calamity is out, then I don't think it'll be a bad thing at all. Instrumentals, then? Unless she really is a fan of Tuvan throat singing for reasons that don't involve Arsenal.
  9. That could be it, though from the way he Discorded the Main 6, I assumed that he intentionally changed them in ways most likely to cause chaos, while still maintaining key aspects of their personalities—where it fit. Fluttershy became an intentionally cruel and self-centered prankster, apparently losing her interest in working with woodland creatures, whereas Rarity retained her love of beauty but in a greedier context. Rainbow Dash exhibited perhaps the most profound change, changing from spunky and loyal to completely apathetic. Pinkie Pie's natural opposite would've been depressive, but he made her a grouch instead. I think he did this specifically because those changes would cause the most relational chaos. For instance, if Pinkie Pie became depressed, it could lead her friends to abandon their differences and comfort her. Having been imprisoned for millennia, Discord's goal seemed to have been destroying the Elements of Harmony so he could roam free, and his Discording with the Mane 6 seems to reflect that. With that in mind, I think depressed!Quota would be most likely to cause chaos, as seeing him in such a state would be too strong a temptation for his former victims. A saccharine parody of himself would make others laugh, and would certainly be disastrous for him, but should he ever break free of that, he could simply wreak vengeance on anyone who laughed. Which….would be something in character for a spirit of chaos, but if he had chosen Quota as a target, I think he'd go for something a bit more drastic.
  10. Doesn't he, though? No, since evil!Discord's "Discording" not only turns people into their own antithesis, but their worst possible antithesis, I think Quota would have his favorite weapon—depression—turned on him. He'd sink into a deep, dark, fear-filled depression from which he thought there was no escape. If Discord was feeling especially vindictive, he might lock Discorded!Quota in a padded room with smily faces on the walls to make it extra torturous. Or, in the interest of spreading chaos and hatred, he'd allow some of Quota's victims to see him in that state and, with said victims having been similarly Discorded, they would not feel sorry for him. Not one whit. ….and I'm finding it hard to feel sorry for him, too.
  11. Don't worry. I know a guy.
  12. I'd say I wish I could've seen that, but as it also sounds like something that could give you whiplash, I'll just take your word for it.
  13. MLP: FIM spoilers:
  14. Backtrack could. I like both of those. Any particular ideas for where and how they'd fit into a story?
  15. Named? Nothing, I'm fine with the name I have. As for what I'd rather be called? "Hi, Danielle, I have a position as a teen librarian that pays an excellent starting salary in a city with a low cost of living where you'll be able to find a pet-friendly apartment easily. No need to interview; your face says it all. You have the perfect 'teen librarian' face. Anyway, when can you start?"
