Edgedancer, I'm pretty sure MV didn't grab Reader.
-
Am I gonna get another bad meme if I say Roosevelt?
-
How about "Nathsha"? Is that one okay?
-
Can I change my name to "Jäger"? *ducks*
-
I like this plan. I like this plan a lot.
-
None so far. I just wanted to take the perspective of a Vanilla who's off the happiness level. OOOOOOOHHHH maybe my character could be a leader of the riots! That would be interesting to write. Nevermind, voidus, you can kill the messenger all you want.
-
I'd recommend not using the horn. That way his hair looks more like it was slicked back with an entire bottle of goop.
-
Voidus, I'm thinking of taking on that messenger you just shot as my (currently) only character in Corvallis. Any objections?
-
Well, it is her turn.

So I've talked about this elsewhere, but I think that it would be cool to talk about it here: So, one of the worlds that my friends and I are building (it's actually had a few chapters posted here, under Our Vocab English Assignment (I promise you, it's better than it sounds) ) has two suns. But not in the way that say Tatooine has two suns. The suns are positioned on exact opposite sides of the planet. Basically, the two stars rotate around each other, and the planet just happens to sit exactly in between them. It's just outside both of the star's habitable zones, but because it gets heat from both stars, it still can support life. It takes a total of 42 hours to spin completely around its axis, and so there are 2 18 hour days and 2 3 hour "nights" (they're about as dark as twilights on Earth) per rotation. It's still the pre-technology typical fantasy era, but scientists have discovered enough to know that it's not just one sun, it's two. One of the suns has a more reddish tint, and mythology has evolved around that. Basically, First Sun (the yellower one) is heaven, and Second Sun is hell. It's been interesting to write. And yes, I am using this as a shameless plug to get you guys to read it : http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/20613-our-vocab-english-assignment-i-promise-you-its-better-than-it-sounds/

You're not going to do an Oregon parody of it?
-
I GOT TO GO HEAR THE BRANDERSNATCH SPEAK ON SATURDAY AND HAVE HIM SIGN BOOKS AND ANSWER QUESTIONS AND SIT NEXT TO HIM AND TALK ABOUT MY NOVELS WITH HIM AND AAAAAAHHHHHHH!
-
I hope not, but it's possible.
-
Actually, he said that Night's Whisper is only mentioned once in Steelheart--and Night's Whisper isn't mentioned at all, but Night's Sorrow is. So he might have just said the wrong name, actually.
-
Am I the only one who's slightly disappointed that Backtrack didn't get out in time to hear Reader's rant about Koschei?
-
(Put here to stop derailing the Obliteration thread)
-
Timeport's God? Because, I don't think you want to experience his mercy.
-
I approve. Nighthound went timeporting downtown. It so works.
-
I think the major difference is Timeport thinks Calamity is God. He doesn't believe in anything the bible says: god didn't appear in the sky and start giving people super powers after all. Actually, now that I think about it...on the surface they'd love to work together, but deeper down (obliteration's MO vs. Timeport's mission) they'd be absolutely working against each other
-
Oh dear Timeport is going to be happy to work with obliteration.
-
I asked two questions. (All is paraphrased, btw.) One about the Reckonersverse that I reported in the questions thread (Night's whisper is a super powerful Epic on the west coast, and Obliteration could definitely be there for Oregon's destruction), and I asked him to put a clue about Shadesmar on my shirt. He put: "Shadesmar has much investiture in some places." He explained: some places in Shadesmar have a lot more investiture than others. Make of that what you will.
-
Is that a new epic, that takes water from aquifers and freezes it?
-
I told him that the RP existed, and he said that obliteration definitely could have been there, because he gets around.
-
I asked about the west coast in general.
-
It would be my pleasure. Those are both awesome!
