Thaidakar the Ghostblood

The antithesis of this thread. I love it. 10/10

Glasses. Short hair. A fondness for turtle necks. Nuff said.

Oh my gosh. I didn't mention it here. I've seen the first four and... I have thoughts. For one thing, I think that they need to have more book moments that are true to what the book had happen. I want there to be changes, yes, but I also think that key moments need to remain untouched. My friend said the same thing at episode two, but I was willing to let it slip by then because I thought it would be closer to the book throughout. It feels less so... but also more like how it could have been if they'd thought about things a little bit more. Annabeth feels very different from the Annabeth I know and love, but she always seems a bit different at different reads. Grover is probably the biggest improvement from the movies. I loved Grover in the movies, but HE WAS NOT GROVER. He was turned into a wacky sidekick like Ron and that is not who Grover is *breathes in, breathes out.* Now, this Grover is actually really good and I love him. I think he needs to be a slight bit more timid, but overall I love him. One thing I want to mention that I did not like is... Medusa. That sequence, isolated from the entire Percy Jackson series, is a good scene. Brought to bear with the entire series... Idk, man, idk. I feel like they need to be really careful here. I want them to show that the gods have reasons for what they do and give an actual reason why Percy and co. are fighting for the gods. Ares, I think, did the best job at this in the books, showing off how terrible the gods are while also showing that they are not all bad. Hades also does a wonderful job at this, but I haven't seen him yet. Medusa's whole thing was entirely unnecessary. And it would've been entirely good IF THEY HAD ACTUALLY STATED THE WHOLE STORY LIKE THEY NEEDED TO SO THAT PEOPLE AREN'T CONFUSED. YA KNOW? But that's just me... Lin was awesome, nuff said.

Y'all, if you do a Wingfeather, Dune or Alcatraz hunger games, I will drop everything and join. That's all I'm saying. Also, I really do want to join these. I really do. I just have a looaaad of stuff I really need to do. And, before I participate in anything more than TLT, I've told myself that I am going to get on top of school and getting working out and hanging out with friends more into my day to day schedule. I really need a life, guys. Sitting on here with y'all and giggling over traumatized monsters won't help me in that. Someday, Taxlin will return. And, when he does... he'll be........ Well, I mean, cognitive shadows are on the table, as are slugs. So I mean.............. So what about popsicles?

lol. Seems to be an easy mistake to make. From an ordinary cover perspective, I think it's the best looking Dune cover. From a Dune cover perspective, those short stocky dune covers with the more symbolic covers- those ones are the best imo. The ones I saw first and the ones I will forever adore. (skip me)

Bahahaha

I should be. I’m trying to. TPBM is waiting to eat a chicken sandwich like me.

@The Paradoxical Phenomenon

Fear is the little death that leads to total obliteration. Cheese-ius Caesar. 10/10

Ooooooooh, I really like that. 8.9/10.115

Oh I love that verse so much. I also love "Little children, stay away from idols. Amen." Scriptures/10 (otherwise known as 1000000/10)

"Ahh, a different place... what is a place?" Thaidakar mused. "The reality of 'place' does not exist here as it does in TLT, and even then that concept is much different than what it is in reality. In a way, yes, but in another way: no."

“There is Balance in all things,” Thaidakar replied. “Ask and I shall answer, but this is one I cannot answer.”

"Balance was talking to you," not-Thaidakar said evenly, "He will reveal himself if you pass the test. Balance is Balance, but you must not ask him about who he was before he was Balance. That person is not Balance. Those answers will come in time, but only when it comes forth naturally, Platypus."

True. I hope he's doing well, Nameless was the best.

And who do you think started that? XDDDDD

A. Random Person saw this and said, “You need a cardiovascular surgeon or something?”

Sorry, I've just needed some stuff off my plate for awhile. I feel we need a change of scenery, this scenario will go absolutely nowhere. I have a better idea. Just let it happen, it'll be frickin' awesome when it comes to fruition. Good The voice rippled through the room. Darkness was frozen, as was everything else in the room, including. Only Platypus's mind and fluids could work, to Platypus's knowledge, but he was frozen in place. There was.... a presence inside the room, one that felt comfortable to both Platypus and Darkness. Yes, Darkness was conscious too, but it was not made aware to Platypus, nor was it made aware to Darkness that Platypus was conscious. You are a form of balance, young one. The voice spoke as if to one, but it spoke to both. Balance is critical to TLT. It is something that inhabits every form of existence here. You have mastered this sort of Balance's abilities to some degree. However, if things are to work, then you must become a master of the forces of Balance. For if you do not learn, it will mean your instant destruction. Your Balance will be tried thrice and you must succeed. If not, then the eternal design shall be frustrated. And you will perish. Something about the voice froze Darkness to his core; emotionally, he was frozen to the core emotionally, but yes, also physically, but that had already happened. Darkness extended his soul to the presence and said telepathically: Who are you? I am the Future, Darkness. It said, as if talking to a child. However, I am also the past and the present. You must remember that. I've known you for a long time. Endure the tests, learn, and you will become a master of the forces of Balance. If not, you will fail. I understand, Darkness said as he retreated. How interesting. Darkness's eyes appeared to him as if to close for a moment, yet they never truly did that. It was a trick Balance had learned long ago from his father. Open. Darkness opened his eyes and was met by.. A waterfall? Platypus, however, when his own eyes were closed and opened found himself in a far different place. A place that one might call the end of the world. Oh, it was the end of the world. Dark clouds crawled across a barren sky, weeping acid trails across a moody brown landscape. Crags jutted up haphazardly throughout the region, beckoning newcomers to their dooms. There was no flap of a wing, there was no rustle of brush, there was no stir of air besides what came from Platypus himself. All that was there was the landscape and Platypus. And the hooded figure, looming in the background, hands like a rag doll's at its side. Inside of its hood, barely visible, was the ashen face of Thaidakar Von Kelsier. "Hello," Thaidakar said, his voice sounding... dreamily? It was an odd tone indeed, one that Platypus had never heard from Thaidakar's mouth, but it was his voice, no mistaking of it. "Platypus, welcome to the first trial. I am not Thaidakar, don't worry, but I also am him. Reality in this plane is not what it is on the others. I have never been anyone but Thaidakar, but I am not him." The figure floated towards Platypus, didn't walk as it did not have legs. Apparently shadowy beings that are reminiscent of old friends didn't need such things, but we digress. "Before we begin, you must know that what you see is not real. However, any wounds you receive will be, unfortunately, real. You will not be able to use your abilities on anything that you see or touch here, what you will receive will be good enough." The figure flashed a brief red and in Platypus' hand appeared a long knife made of a bright silvery metal. "With this you can fight, if you feel the need to. Any questions?"

Sorry for taking months to respond, I haven't checked threads I've started in a long time. My only problem with the orders you have presented is that you have Era 2 after Stormlight books three and four, those have some things that you can only catch after around Shadows of Self, if not Bands of Mourning. Namely in the epigraphs, which I find important and always tell new readers to check out. But that's basically it.

It does. I love being a part of it.

Sure, Platypus, sure. There are many things I could say to this. For example: Xino. For another example: me. Xino for actual plot and me for the fact that I brought in Plot.
