  1. What's this from?
  2. Deteca stopped walking as the Stranger teleported in front of her. Why the dramatics? "Thank you?"
  3. Deteca watched Voidus leave before she could retaliate. Things that helped were different, things that didn’t first murder someone. Even Hemalurgy could help if used right - she wasn’t condemning what they used so much as how they used it. Clearly she hadn’t done a good job of expressing that. You let yourself get too worked up, she accused herself. And I wasn’t even here when the other guilds did all that. Even when it was TUBA, my input was minor, if I knew what was happening at all. And then the Stranger starting speaking, and he took an entirely different tactic, building the Dark Alley up with his words and not tearing the other guilds down but rather showing them as constructs that were nothing in the first place. Deteca decided not to argue. Now wasn’t the time for debates, and these weren’t the people. Not to mention that he’d finished with something that was far too close to a threat for her liking. Next time, talk philosophy with another unInvested person, not the highly powerful people who hate you. Deal? Deal. “Well,” she said finally. “You were correct, she - Lita, right? - is okay. And my original purpose for being here no longer exists, so I’ll be going now. To help defend the city.” Guilt-tripping them wasn’t likely to work, but she couldn’t say much else without feeling like someone harping on on a topic left long dead by everyone else. “My apologies again for Alleytraveling and interfering in your...business.” Deteca nodded at the four and turned around, then began walking quickly toward where she knew a tunnel entrance to be.
  4. Honestly I think everything he writes is great, and I mean, Skyward! Besides, the guy deserves to write what he wants to write. That said, sure, I’d like more cosmere too. But I’m not gonna fault Brandon for taking a break; if that’s how his writing style works, then that’s how we’ll be getting books faster anyway. It’s this or long stretches of nothing in between. I prefer this. Maybe it’s been a little bit drier for cosmere fans, but not Sanderfans in general because he’s still putting content out.
  5. I explore the bottom of the now deep underwater floor.
  6. Deteca heard the Stranger speak and turned to face him, but he wasn’t talking to her. First he explained to the other Denizen that the spiked one had been flaring tin at the time when she’d been stabbed, and during the Alleystorm it would’ve been even worse. Deteca relaxed...slightly. "It's just a wee spike,” he continued, kneeling at her side, “and it wasn't even one of the more dangerous bindpoints, though our friend from TUBA here likely couldn't tell the difference. Rise and face your new reality, Little Lita." Oh, Lita’s a nice name, a piece of Deteca’s brain the size of one of those tiny chocolate chips she hated using in cookies thought. The rest of her was far too busy being set off again, ignoring the status of this man - if that was indeed the right term, she wasn’t sure if he was exactly human - as the person to have most recently physically attacked someone in the vicinity and verbally attacking him herself. “No. No, I couldn’t tell the difference,” she agreed with him, voice light but biting. “Because I am not someone who spends her time hurting other people in the name of science. I don’t know bindpoints because I haven’t ever stabbed someone with the intention of either stealing what isn’t mine from them or giving them something that they shouldn’t have, something unnatural -“ She cut herself off, then took a breath and started again, quieter. “I don’t understand Hemalurgy, and I don’t understand how anyone could be so callous as to perform it in the way that you just did. I don’t understand what it is about science and power and knowledge that makes you and so many others harm and kill others to get it, when there must be better ways. I don’t understand why you feel the need to create the abominations you do, since I have never known them to serve a purpose besides sowing fear, and I don’t understand why you won’t help the city in a way that won’t destroy half of it.” Deteca realized Lita was waking up and muttered, “Well, anyway. You’re right. I couldn’t tell the difference.”
  7. I join the fray, then, after correcting a typo, decide to see what awesome battle moves l can do by being completely random. I don’t want anything that happens in the Alleyverse to be permanent but I cannot be the first one to get the chance. So I don’t murder anyone with lightsabers unless fuchsia lightsabers are available.
  8. Copy pasting is annoying for me right now so I won’t be taking a turn this time, but I do want to say...AHA! We’ve discovered Ap’s murderer! It was Truthless all along, and right before the wedding too! I thought you were my friend...
  9. You know what you two need? The Superfight, where you can throw overpowered characters at each other to your heart’s content.
  10. WELL WHY D’YOU THINK MR. SNARKYPANTS AHHHHHHH
  11. Ark why do you want me to kill you
  12. Well RIP End, whoever that poor soul is. Remind me to quote this...
  13. Hurt Ap because he’s not here to get mad at me, heal myself.
  14. “Ah yes,” I whisper, “by becoming the disruption we shall yet save the party from said disruption...yeeesssssss...” Holding my gun, l ready my metals inside me.
  15. That’s part of grammar!
  16. “Okay,” I whisper back.
  17. I never said I would though
  18. He says without end punctuation
