    "Hey! This is the Battle for the Sandwich, not the Burrito! Get your own thread!" I'm about to take a bite out of the sandwich, when...

    *steals the sandwich to end this gag of posting things in between asterisks*

    So. I just did some rereading of The Lost Metal, and I came across an interesting quote from Marsh. When meeting the group while they're being held in captivity by Entrone. Marsh says that the Set can't compound using Hemalurgy because "Identity contamination prevents it." This implies that Hemalurgic spikes contain a bit of the Identity from the person they stabbed, preventing compounding. If only there were some way to get rid of someone's identity... *Malwish airship crashes through window* Yep, that's right. If you want to Compound with Hemalurgy, all you'll need to do is get a ferring or a misting to store their identity in an unkeyed metalmind and spike them. Spike yourself, and now you've got a spike without identity contamination. Do this for the corresponding metal, and you'll have access to compounding. Nice. So let's say you want to use this to become the second Lord Ruler (as one does). I'd recommend you start by spiking a Duralumin ferring. This allows you to store Connection, and by tapping connection, you become more able to form relationships with others, or, you know, persuade them to ignore the spike in your hand. Then go for a Duralimin misting to Compound Connection, and now you can convince anyone to do anything you want. Use this to spike one of every other type of ferring and misting while having them store Identity, and you can acquire the powers of the Lord Ruler. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

    Is this still happening?

    I remember the books saying 200, but evidently it only has 180 floors.

    While Vin commits homicidal hat tricks, Wayne commits normal hat tricks.

    Huh.

      It's too early for me to laugh this hard

      I think I got a lemonade hangover.

      The best kind of hangover.

    I invoke the sacred power of the Nerdy and Platypus lunch date gag (It's been around since pretty early in the thread) to return the sandwich to the SandwichSafe. I then order the falafel pita and a glass of tea.

    Plus, they always litter.
  14. NerdyAarakocra
    "Ah, good. What are you getting?"
  15. NerdyAarakocra
    "Oh, come on! Why do these lunch dates never work?" I say, reading the menu. "Ooh, falafels! Those seem nice."

    I just missed my second Shardiversary in a row.

    Just 15 more to go, I guess.

    That's an interesting question and depends on your PoV. What happened to the single artifact that keeps the realm from exploding?

    Lego® sets grant powers based on their complexity. Basic Duplo® sets barely restore any magical powers to their builder, while epic 50lb cities can give their builders the power to move mountains (the amount of power required to do something is relative to the amount of force required times the task's complexity). This also works for other crafty build kits, like ships in bottles. As such, the Lego® Group and other build kit people have control over all magic. A lone group of rebels, however, has started building their own craft sets. As tensions escalate, the two sides inch closer to war... Reaction Images

    I correct you, noting that I'm nonbinary and use they/them pronouns. I then invite Edma Rue and @Immortal Platypus to lunch at that new restaurant downtown.

    My senior prank is probably related to modifying a water bottle. Either that or planting mushrooms in the gym. I haven't decided, but it's ok. I have a few years.

    I rename Timothy the space octopus back to Jerome and convince it to give me the sandwich instead.
  23. NerdyAarakocra
    I ride Jerome, my space shark, into battle. I then attack Unintelligenius with a sword several times longer than my body length, which is incredibly ineffective. Realizing this, I grab a grappling hook, grapple the sandwich over to me, and leave riding my space octopus, Jerome.

    I use Dr. Doof's Dimensionator to escape the second dimension, appearing right on top of Mt. Everest. I then sit down and prepare for a picnic.

    An instant replay appears. While everyone is distracted by it, I yoink the sandwich and carry it off to the 2nd dimension.
