O_O We must hurry with this trifling war so Big Al and Voidgaze can have their date!

It's not nearly as long as most bills passed by Congress, and it's a good deal more exciting. (Seriously. You won't see morally bankrupt magicians, Creeper Kings, cheerful Yanderes, or insane matter manipulators anywhere in a Congressional omnibus bill.)

what exactly is dawnslights powers
TwiLyghtSansSparkles replied to High prince of geeks's topic in The Reckoners
Dawnslight has some very strange nightmares. Nightmares that involve Evil Superman, a city made of steel, El Brass Bullish Dude, and a guy with unlimited ammo who is an extremely lousy shot. Then again, I get the feeling that the fortune cookie scene began with Dawnslight thinking, "I need to send a message. Do fortune cookies grow on trees? I'm thinking yes." And that if he were ever roused from his coma, you could never convince him fortune cookie trees don't grow in the wild, so... *puts on own tinfoil hat* -
Oh! You must've met some of the elderly Arizonans, especially the snowbirds. Their favorite activity: Blaming young people for all of America's problems. Second favorite: Driving very slowly and blocking the aisles in the grocery stores to chat with friends. Several times I have been unable to make it out of my street because two snowbirds will have been passing one another and stopped in the middle of the road to have a chat through their windows. Honk at them, and you're suddenly a horrible person who hates the elderly, not a member of the workforce worried that you'll be late for your job. Just tell him that the tax increase probably goes to pay for your local politician's dry cleaning, not anything you would have voted for. I'll try to get something for Quota written up.

As long as they're talking appearance and not "You look like the kind of guy who would drive around in a VW van with a talking dog who, like you, always has the munchies too bad to contribute to your friends' mystery solving business in any meaningful way," that's not so bad.

I can't speak for Edgedancer or Chaos (though I see no absurdity in those descriptions ) but I don't look a thing like Karen Gillian. I've been compared to Alexis Bledel and an actress from Bones, though.

So if someone were to, say, drop The Metal in a suitably large pool and freeze the water, would that work?

Funtimes' main advantage in that fight is their surroundings. Unless it takes place in the stomach of a whale (in which case she could simply teleport Lightwards out of the whale and finish the fight on solid ground proper) she could simply turn his shoes into literal concrete overshoes and drop him into a lake. If surrounded by zombies, she could always freeze them in tar and go after their master with a similar move. His resurrection would prolong the fight, but his increasing mental instability would make him more dangerously imaginative, leading to some pretty insane moves (like zombifying poisonous snakes or something similar). A Panda vs. Slaughterhouse fight would be awesome, though only slightly less so than Obliteration vs. Mobius. And that ninja smiley next to Slaughterhouse's name makes me very nervous. But…but…but…..*sigh* Okay.

Obliteration vs. Moral Guardian. The entire fight would consist of Guardian attempting to force Obliteration to put on a shirt.

The Mad Ballooner vs. Lord Snakehands. I don't think this would be a good fight, but it would be a hilarious one.

what do you think...Tia will be an epic in the next book
TwiLyghtSansSparkles replied to drew9777's topic in The Reckoners
She also knew enough about using the tensors to describe the sensation to David, so either she's lying or she's not an Epic. -
The most karmic death I can think of for Reader is an overdose of truth serum. Which actually doesn't exist, the way it's portrayed in movies and TV shows. Sodium pentothal decreases higher cortical brain functioning, making it more difficult for the subject to work through the complexities of a lie. Theoretically, a subject under the influence of sodium pentothal could simply choose not to speak. The drug does not actually compel them to tell the truth; it simply makes it more difficult for them to lie.

Go ahead. It makes sense for you to go next in that scene.

So Intervention gets people drunk with no side effects whatsoever? Why is he not invited to every party in the state?

And, as far as getting him out of that key closet, could he summon a dinosaur to claw through the door?

How exaggerated? I'm assuming she doesn't want a handle shaped like a kitten. No idea. I just wanted to know if she was needed there for the fight, though the Unicyclist should be getting his powers soon. Actually, if I just had her wander back and forth between the cottage and where she's going to meet Remington, that might be an even better and more plausible reason to get her within Quota's range.

Like a metal lance? I don't see why not. Also, should Funtimes go back to the Museum to close it down for the night so she's there when the attack starts?
