  1. I only know what Girls' Generation is because of Dead Fantasy, which is awesome. Windmill Hut from the Reorchestrated Soundtrack for Ocarina of Time
  2. Some of it anyway, most of it can stay right here.
  3. Thank you. #harightlikeI'mthatawesome #hashtaggingforumpostsFTW
  4. AAAH! I'M SO EXCITED! THE THIRD BOOK IS OUT THE THIRD BOOK IS OUT!
  5. I'd like to announce that I went to my driving class today despite being sick! Yeah!
  6. that disappeared immediately What a twist!
  7. Alright, we've got a post from Eero. I'll be adding a couple of Forms to the Data Topic once I write them out. One you've seen, the others you will recognize. Hee hee.
  8. WHOA. Good eye! Did you come up with most of this on your own or are you just bringing together the stuff we already know?
  9. GREATEST. CROSSOVER. EVER. You guys get 5 AWESOME POINTS each.
  10. "Brick by Boring Brick" by Paramore. This is my favorite song from the album. The melody is just so GOOD.
  11. But there's the whole, "donate yourself to hemalurgy on your deathbed" option, which is also an option for giving breath.
  12. Second day of being sick. My body has decided to turn against me the week I start having THINGS TO DO. Grrrr...

  13. He could keep Atium around for the awesome of it. Or to give to those who need it, like Atium mistings.
  14. I am announcing that I hate being sick. And as soon as I start having things to do! ARRGH!
  15. I gotta say, Copper would be great for theorizing, grabbing quotes, and other things related to foruming.
  16. Make you smile again? Sounds like Rioting to me. If you can pull this off, you got 5 AWESOME POINTS.
  17. I love the Seventh Tower. It's by Garth Nix, who's got some other stuff that I really like. It's the worldbuilding that reels me in. It's definitely written to a younger audience, think the younger end of middle grade, but I still like it. The plot and characters are pretty standard, but become interesting when it's affected by the worldbuilding. The worldbuilding is based around different applications of light and shadow. Interplay between light magic cast from sunstones and living shadows. It's nothing terribly deep, leaving a lot of how it's applied to the imagination, but that's the way I like it for the most part. The setting is the Dark World, where a massive Veil lays over the sky, blocking out the sun, leaving the world in ice and snow. But there's the Castle, an enormous, seven towered building where the Chosen live, users of light magic who live not really knowing or caring what is outside of their self sufficient society. Then the main character, a Chosen boy named Tal, after running into a bunch of problems, tries to scale one of the towers and falls off. He thus discovers not only the people that live out on the Ice, but facts that shake his belief in some of the key facts that his worldview is based on.
  18. They keep messing up with the Allomancy in these write ups. You don't use Duralumin like that! But yeah, that vamp is going DOWN.
  19. I have set a crazy goal. I am going to read every book I own and then some before my birthday on the nineteenth of June. To accomplish this, I have set myself a daily page goal. I need to read 300 pages every day. It's actually been going pretty well. I'm still reading the books I was before, but in conjunction with other things because trying to read 300 pages of LotR in a day is complete lunacy. So far I have finished these books: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone The Seventh Tower: The Fall The Seventh Tower: Castle The Seventh Tower: Aenir The Seventh Tower: Above the Veil These are short books with short pages, which make great fodder for meeting that page goal. I'm a little scared of what's going to happen when these start to go away, though. I'll put up my full list of books later.
  20. The synopsis says 300 years. How would Snapping typically happen in this new, presumably-doesn't-beat-their-children-for-Allomancy society?
  21. I got into Brandon after Warbreaker was released, so I'm not sure if it was good the first time around. That said, I'd love to see him do it again so I can see the process unfolding. It would make the most sense to do this with Nightblood, since he's already established the series that way, but I'd like to see him do something new.
