I 'saw' the red creatures scuttle away and go... somewhere. This epic was good with tech. I filed the information away in my head for future reference should I need it. "I don't know... Greece sounds like an interesting place... And I've never been. It'd be fun, but it's up to sonny here." I motioned to the child in my arms. He'd wake up soon enough. He wanted to see the fights and, eventually, join them himself. I'd lost on that battle. My body was perfectly positioned to move if need be, and my mind was already creating a thousand different routes I could use to either escape or attack with, but the part of me that actually thought, that part was distracted, thinking about the day I'd met impersonation. Those were fond memories... I spoke. "What're your stories?"I was simply curious, though my mind justified it by saying there was value in knowing someone's history.

I am beyond greatful for all of you guys, you have seriously improved my hope for humanities survival and future. Before I met you guys, I was starting to think that the world was hopeless. Now though... well, I made a short story that I think explains how you've changed my perspective. Thanks to you, THIS is how I now view the world. Thank you all.

Granted, though you will not have any ability to avoid mistakes not yet made. Your bane is that every historian ever now wants you to answer all their questions. Add that to the natural envy all other nations on earth will feel towards you and you won't live very long. You are doomed to die from boredom. I wish to be a perfect healer. Every action I make, every part of my body, everything I am or do will heal the person I intend to heal.

WAHB-WAHB-WAHB-WAHB-WAHB!!!! (I really want this to happen.)

What is this? I've never heard of it. Please explain.

Wait! You're alive, but distracted, trying to guide, and protect, those chosen favorites who are less powerful than yourself from an outside danger?!?! I name thee HARMONY!(or Sazed. Either way.( the outside danger being reality(this is now like inception(Whaaaat!)))) Well... that happened. What about everyone else? What do all of you guys have planned for the game?

@Delightful, My mom likes to watch movies while folding laundry. If you have to adult, adult things to your advantage. Eat while watching a movie, vacuum while watching a movie, eat icecream while watching a movie, do jazzercise while watching a movie. You can adult any excuse you want, BECAUSE your an adult. Embrace your limitations and make them your strengths. And please tell us if it works.

Possibly.

As I have been trained by the most feared, most hated, most abhorred, and least known of all guilds(the league of brain-weasel-taming lawyers, or LBWTL), I have no fear of your attempts. After all, who gives you brain-weasels? People in the league of course. Anyways... breath can only be freely given... can't it? So how could I have messed with your breath? It's not like I'm a digital copy of the living Nightblood or anything, haha, that would be.... ridiculous.

Check out this amazing trick! I tried it, and it worked! I could barely see the color red for a few minutes! Temporary color-blindness trick. If you don't feel like watching that video, the basic gist is that you: completely close and scrunch up your eyes hold a flashlight over your, for example, closed right eye. Keep your eyes tightly scrunched while doing so. After 30-60 seconds, turn off and remove the flashlight, put one hand over your right eye, then open your eyes. Nothing should change. Then switch which eye is being covered. The color red should be severely dampened, like you've suddenly lost the first heightening. Keep switching back and forth, it's awesome!

I stare at the new-comer, my bronze-sense getting violently active pulses. The pulses felt unpredictable, beautiful, almost alive. I noticed that the colors around him were too deep, too alive, too perfect. He had an impressive aura. "What kind of magic does this place have?" I asked in a soft voice. It took me a moment to realize I had spoken in rosharan. Rusting storms, that was an unpleasant realization. I tapped awareness and flared my bronze, searching for anything and everything, only finding the same impossibly lively thrumming. It was beautiful. My gaze glazed over as I lost myself in the beautiful beat, it's enrapturing pulsing pulling at me... I shake myself, returning to reality.

Granted. She will die... when Brandon wants her to. Your bane is that you are now stuck in the same place for all of eternity, unable to move for any reason at all, and unable to die, until you witness the death of the nightwatcher. I wish for the ability to generate magic, even if i can't use it. I will become like a living sun, only instead of sunlight I give off magic, and instead of fire, I'm still me.

There once was a woman of light who claimed to have quite a plight she begged for some help and quickly was dealt The cognitive shadow of spite

Enjoy my take on that imaginary thing called: "real life".

Granted, along with the warning that the banes can get pretty harsh here. I'll go easy on you, though, because it's your first time. Your bane is that, for every problem you help solve, you feel the overpowering urge to fix another. Each time, the urge is stronger than before, so what happens when you fix everyone's problems? I wish for the ability to make everyone around me happy in some way, without it being at someone else's expense.

I walked over to the man who sported my coat, after noticing that he had found the forms needed to gain a fight. I gabbed one and looked to the bar keeper. " I do hope that you have a pen on you, it would be a great pity if you didn't at least know where one was." I kept my vouce smooth, almost like I was speaking to a lover in the dead of night. My eyes were leveled at him, however, with a deadly seriousness. "If you happen to know where one is, I would greatly appreciate it if you would go get it for me." My grin was confidante, almost cocky. I mentally dared him to deny me. Then I remembered my brother. I grimaced. "I'll be back in a moment, and nevermind about the pen. I have what I need." I manuvered some of my metal onto the page, filling it out with thin lines of dust which I promptly liquified and then solidified. My information was permanently bonded with the paper now, I would pay to see someone try to mess with it and succeed. then I handed the card to the bartender and walked out to the vanilla, standing outside the bar and looking impatient. " I'll take my brother... what was your name again?" he leveled his gaze at me. "My name is Ryan, and here he is." Ryan handed me my brother, gently, and stood there waiting. " I need a hotel room, but I'm not done here yet. Would you mind getting me a hotel room? I'd appreciate it ever so much." My smile was about as sincere as I'd ever managed to give to someone that wasnt an epic. Ryan nodded and started to walk away. "And Ryan?" he turned to look at me. "Come tell me when you finish getting me a room. Please?" He nodded and started walking away again. "Thank you, Ryan." I said. then I turned and walked back into the bar. I walked over to where CrankShaft was conversing with some strange technology epic. "Whats up, guys?" I said, my arms cradling a sleeping child.

I looked at the man, my excitment dimming. I could sense his allomancy, and I was still practiced enough to tell what emotion he was pushing. I palmed his knife, blade resting against my forearm, and gripped his hand, forcing him to take hold of the weapon. then i grabbed his wrist and pulled the knife dangerously close to my face, a mere inch from my eye. "The names Naan, and if you dont trust me, get it over with. We're hunting hoid now, and we dont have time for mistrust in our little hunting party." I smiled, an unerving smile I'd learned from the kings wit. My that fellow had been a nightmare. I was slightly surprised by my rashness. If this man chose to distrust me, he would be in th perfect position to end me. I tapped awareness, making me more alert, more... aware of my surroundings. Hand in his pocket, a weapon. Gun? Possibly. I noticed other things about the man: his hair length, his stance, his handedness, even his confidence. I did not want to cross this man. I stopped tapping bronze. I could take him down five different ways if I had too. Though by the looks of it, he might be prepared to beat any of them. I had probably just killed myself, stupid bravado. I kept smiling.

Where did you find this!?!?!? also: Magnus Chase-"I know, your going to read about how I died in agony and your going to say: "wow! Cool, Magnus, can I die in agony too?"

Might I suggest: BEHOLD! THOU HAD THOUGHT THAT I HAD NAUGHT BUT GLORIOUS, BEAUTIFUL MAJESTY! BEHOLD HOW MY WRATH CANST BE BAUTIFUL AS MINE GLORIOUS JOY! ALL SHALL BOW BEFORE MY CREATIONS AND GLORY IN THEIR SORROW! I do hope that it suited your needs. now for the rant. ... Okay I'm back. I'm very... excited... about your story. Please continue soon.

My mom and my aunt started a company recently, they called it CSB innovations. Its a publishing company and my mom and aunt are the companies first published authors/co-authors. They started about a month or so before school started down here. Not too long ago they sold between their 7,000th and 9,000 book! I am so happy right now! I almost want to cry. They wanted this so badly, and their hopes and dreams are coming true. I'm glad that all their hard work paid off. XD XD XD

Bacaue the planet doesnt change revolution around the sun, only rotational direction, there would be a period when the axis that the planet rotates on is directly facing the sun leaving the other half in total darkness. It would happen twice a year, though the rest of the year would be slightly different from earths. It would, however, explain that period leading up to the winter season. Sorry if it doesn't make any actual sense, I just saw this thread a while ago and popped in with an idea. I suppose I'm not really qualified as an astrophysicist. Maybe the real astrophysicists can take a look at my idea and see if it will work.

That's why she was crying as she granted your wish. She basically just destroyed a few thousand universes, most of them unknown or currently being written. Anyway, granted, though its effect is planetary for you and it doesn't come with an automatic brain enhancer, so you basically are adding like seven senses to your current, human brain. Your mind becomes overwhelmed with the sheer impossible amount of information that it's receiving and you are stuck frozen in place due to constant overload of your sense of sight. As all of the things your ability would let you see try to cram their way in through your eyes, you fail to actually be capable of making use of this ability. The worst bit, your range is constantly growing so you can't get used to the information being crammed through your eyes. It's like being stuck watching a movie that's getting smaller all the time and playing right on you eyeballs, you can't even see the real world after this goes on for a few months. Thats pretty much a boon/bane in one. I like those. I wish for THE punniest bane someone can come up with related to the words: super, pink, flamingo, or rabies. Take your pick.

What if the planet had a different rotation? If the sun rose in the north and set in the south, for example. During two quarters of the year, things would be normal, however during the other two quarters, whichever side the sun is on would determine where the cold/hot seasons were. It might also be interesting for a planet to have a different rotation than earths for a change. Opinions?

I can post the first two chapters of the worst book I ever tried to write. The premise of the book being that a war in the 'christian' 'heaven' allowed the 'devil' to reach the source of power that keeps the universe running: The Word of God. As the devil grasps the enchanted gem (I implied that it wasnt really what it sounded like) the greater portion of it violently rejects him, splitting itself in half to get away. Then the gem gains sentience and ends up meeting Mother-Earth Gaea, shortly followed by Sky-Father Ouranos. he then leaves them alone only to be completely swallowed by the earth and turned back into a crystal. After that it changes completely and becomes a time travel novel. Not my best work.

I went through this every time I moved. I know it's hard, and you don't know why it's happening, but as long as you don't give in, you'll be fine. It may sound cliche, but, you have the support of everyone who knows you; myself, your parents, the rest of your family, your friends, your teachers, your acquaintances, every person whose life you've ever touched, and everyone on the shard. If your stuck, try doing as Delightful and Mestiv have already suggested. If life seems to have abandoned you, make it come back. Who knows? That feeling of missing something could be you becoming overwhelmed. If so, maybe try finding little moments throughout your day to do nothing but remember the good times. Spend a few moments reminiscing about your youth. When your ready, take a breath, and push on with your life. Talking to your friends could also help if nothing else does. Good luck, and enjoy your days of the dead!
