Voidus

Lucy Lockser looked at her side to her companions. They'd all discovered the secrets of Calamity, eventually breaking his dreadful hold over them, freeing their minds once more. Scribbler, Docter Funtimes, Edgerunner and Voidgaze along with Sunburst and Darkrose had all succeeded in becoming Redeemed Epics. They had been fighting a war against the other Epics, in both Portland and the Dalles and they had finally cornered the leader of the Empire of light. He had been killed many times in past skirmishes but now they had tracked him down to his headquarters. He would not run any more. A series of bright, sparkly explosions lit the room as a dozen statues were teleported in by their latest redeemed ally. "Thank you Shiny." Scribbler said as the Epic brought in the last of the new items she'd been working on with Funtimes. "I promise you we'll journey with you to rescue that cousin of yours as soon as we've cleaned up here. Corpsemaker is stuck in a giant living barbie castle, bereft of his powers, Altermind is being forced to enrol in a new Highschool where everyone knows his weakness, Deathwish is now being carefully monitored as he maintains a steady diet of coke and Arsenal has fled to Alaska. We're so close." She glared along with her companions at the last of the great despots who had plunged Portland into war. "Lightwards the Green." Scribbler started. "Leprechaun king we decided." Darkrose piped in, along with a nodding and smiling Sunburst. Scribbler added a smile of her own, still reveling in her ability to take joys out of jokes like that again. "Lightwards, king of the Leprechauns, you have wreaked untold horrors on this city. You unleashed Nighthound upon unsuspecting citizens, let your dinosaurs roam free, you hurt many of those assembled here personally. For these crimes you will pay. The good Doctor Funtimes and I whipped up something a little special for you, after some ideas brought up by the one you know as the Traveler. " The girl Epic strode up to one of the covered statues before whipping off the velvet cover, revealing a stone angel underneath, its eyes staring ominously ahead and somehow managing to look almost alive. The other Redeemed women each strode over to a statue, unveiling more angels. All of them looking directly at Lightwards. "Now I don't do particularly well with making living things that can obey orders. But my friend Doctor Funtimes it turns out can do some really amazing things with a circuit board and some programming." She strode around Lightwards as he knelt on the floor, casting frightened glances at the statues surrounding him. "Add a little piece of writing on each to allow them freedom of movement and greatly enhanced speed and we have a small army of these 'weeping Angels'. Now the interesting thing about them is they won't harm you at all while you're looking at them. They're... what was the term he used again?" She tapped her chin thoughtfully for a few seconds before Voidgaze chimed in. "Quantum-locked I think it was." "Ah yes, thanks, they're quantum locked. So as long as you watch them they can't move at all, they can't run towards you with their hands outstretched, reaching for you..." Lightwards quivered on the ground. "So that is your punishment for now, oh leprechaun king. We'll be leaving these beauties to watch you for now. Just remember... don't blink."

I had no idea how much I wanted to listen to this song again until just now. *Does embarrassing dancing/singing montage to song*

"Hippy-Anarchist!" If only everyone else could see it the same way.

Perhaps I shall. Also, I'm only counting two upvotes Seventeenth Shard.

It's the same with so many things these days. Abortion: "Child-eating murderers!" "Women-hating dictators!" Religion: "Amoral heathens!" "Unscientific morons!" Java/C++: "Inferior Object oriented language!" "Inferior object-oriented language!" That last one might just happen to me though.

If these don't gain 50 upvotes in the next 10 minutes I shall be extremely disappointed in the state of the Shard because these are all awesome. A Scribbler dream? That'd be horrible. Unless Epics can get normal dreams too, which I don't know if they can.

Well the best place to get shot is three feet to the left of your body If it has to hit you though yeah, butt-shot is a pretty safe one. Lower legs not too bad. Stomach's one of the worst, even if you don't bleed out there's just way too high a chance you get sepsis. Hands and feet are probably the best options though it'd hurt a lot.

So cute and fluffy. By the way you have incredibly neat nails. My fingernails look like they've gone through a shredder a few times.

Public shaming is always a stupid tactic no matter what it's used for. Scare tactics like that always are. Unfortunately they're effective so I doubt people will stop using them.

80. Granted I think that of all the people I like though.

Seconded Although sometimes the smell does suddenly make me sick. So maybe Lark is onto something.

Been nearly a week since my cluster started up again, still having to drug myself insensible every night. This time I haven't even been able to make use of that to make some hillariously random RP posts either since none of my characters are up. Does anyone have a hug? Or something fluffy?

Ookla the join us.

Although as a counterpoint plenty of shots that tv and movies assure you are completely harmless can still kill you. (Get shot in the leg or shoulder? Basically just stick a bandaid on it and you're fine. Never mind the massive veins in those areas that can easily cause you to bleed to death if they get hit.)

Well given the different hemispheres one would be freezing while the other melts your face off.

Have you seen how many of us there are in the RP? ... I mean, I don't know anyone in the Dark Alley. Not being associated with it myself.

I have now adopted a new Ookla mantle to commemorate my continued non-discovery.

An island, a state that takes up nearly half the country or... hmm... not sure how to describe Darwin. A third place.

Hobart and Perth. And kindof maybe Darwin, I'm not sure what Winter wanted to do with it.

Yup. It was mentioned in AoL at some point. But as soon as there was a scratch in the foil they'd be able to push/pull it again so way safer to just use Aluminium for the whole thing.

Dig as much as you will. I have hidden my identity behind an ironclad disguise.

You mean specifically for Inquisitors? Not really but I don't see why not since it blocks it for everyone else.

Yeah, it's also way cheaper that way Or something like Vin's trick of putting a piece of metal on it that when pushed just slides off, so they think they can use it and you can catch them by surprise.

If anyone wanted to join the Wastelands we have two cities free at the moment.

Well it'd block all the steel lines behind it so pretty sure they'd notice it.
