  1. I would like to announce that the Root Corporation would like to set up a permanent headquarters in the shard. *begins hiring penguins to build a root factory in every thread* 1461
  2. Why not? You guys can have that tiny corner of there, that's practically luxurious!
  3. Dreamscape: Sixth Archive The archive was a large cavern Tall bookshelves lined the walls in places and went all through out the cavern in tall neat rows. Suits of armor and other random artifacts lined the walls and went infront a few of the books. Maps of foreign places and tapestries with alien writing giving context to the scenes depicted on them covered most of the uneven walls next to the shelves. Snake-like birds flew around the roof, squawking and cawing. Crystalline torches were lit with rainbow-like white fire. The roof was made of reflective black metal in the shape of a cavern roof. The walls had various veins of the black metal, normal stone and some sort of white stone. In the long rows of books, glow globes hovered around, casting shadows as they passed. At the walls, there would occasionally be a door (most were locked). There was one part where you couldn't tell there was a a boxlike room carved into the side of it unless you were directly looking at it. Gloppy led them down the long side towards a figure cast in shadows. The figure was looking at a map, absorbed in thought. @CalanoCorvus@Shadowed@The Bookwyrm
  4. Hmm.. Do Brandon Sanderson books count? TPBM has a mouth.
  5. "No mourners, no goats."
  6. Vocal cords are tasty. Granted, you have no legs. Your feet are attached to your torso. I wish for a chicken sandwich.
  7. The Infinity Machine had overlooked something. Something important. Something... Plot relevant. Plot's sword stabbed the machine, making the machine begin to dissolve into pure energy; the sword started eating the energy at the same time.
  8. Shadow, who'd been disguised as one of the shadows, replaces the sandwich with a fake and takes it to a lab for examination.
  9. OOOOOH, I'll give you a moldy sock for it. I have this crown I stole from Elhokar...
  10. Dreamscape: Sixth Archive "The Friend said to tell him when someone came... come with me!" A long thin slit appeared just below the eyes, a smile. Gloppy started walking into the archive in the direction his new friend had gone.
  11. Dreamscape: Sixth Archive The door opened from the inside, revealing Gloppy walking over. He was made of a pile of black goo. Where eyes should be, there were two slits that glowed a deep red. "The Friend was right... Welcome to the archive!" He turned and saw Bookwyrm, he tilted his head, "something bad about you... Worldseer maybe..." Gloppy's thoughts sped up for a few moments, then slowed back into their regular slowness. "hmm... the Friend was expecting you." he stepped aside, letting the three pass into the archive.
  12. Alright, a few weeks ago I tried to show y'all my favorite bookshelves.

    I've finally figured out how.

    And now I present my fanciest looking shelves.

    most of my Brandon Sanderson books are on other shelves where other people can see them.

      I don't remember a lot of it :lol: I think Dannnex did a update that was an extension of a previous one about ideas and technological advancement. I went through all 79 of my notifs earlier today so it all kinda blurs together lol

  15. sock. It was Nameless' old sock that had become sentient.
  16. *grins while offering spiked cookie.*
  17. Firstly, I love C.S. Lewis's books. Secondly, I think Brandon might have taken some inspiration from Lewis, but not as a primary influence. In the postscript, he talks about how The Princess Bride was a big influence. While Goldman's book is where the story started, I do think he incorporated things he liked from Lewis's works. Thirdly, "a fairytale for grownups" is a phrase I love, and I will end up using it as often as I can. (p.s. FOR NARNIA!)
