  2. Full Feruchemist! WAHOOOOO Now it's time to abuse the system with theorycrafting
  3. Happy birthday Szeth! I always smile when I see your cute pfp, and you're a pleasure to interact with on the shard.

    I hope you've had a wonderful day- wishing you all the best!

  4. So I saw Hadestown last night.

    I think it might be my new favorite broadway musical (and I'm no theatre slouch)

    It was beautiful yet tragic, sensitive yet rugged, joyful yet melancholy.

    It struck some deep chords in me- I teared up several times during the show. I still feel the raw emotion that stirred in my soul. Feelings like this are what make life worth living, I think.

    Themes of doubt and human failure were threaded throughout the show, but I loved the way it closed- hopeful, thoughtful, and reflective, with a focus on redemption and learning from the past.

    Here're some lyrics from one of the ending numbers

    Quote


    It's a sad tale
    It's a tragedy
    It's a sad song
    But we sing it anyway

    'Cause here’s the thing
    To know how it ends
    And still begin to sing it again
    As if it might turn out this time
    I learned that from a friend of mine

     

    Funnily enough, the whole show, my grandma kept talking about how Hades (Patrick Page) looked familiar, and then after the show, she realized that she was remembering him from a Shakespeare production she saw over forty years ago (my grandma's memory is incredible). Apparently his spectacular performance left a mark on her. :P

      I am extremely jealous. I had no idea he was still in it!

      He's also in a production of Hunchback of Notre Dame, if you're interested. He's also amazing in that.

      Well, not currently. He was in the original cast of that though. (I think he was in it in 2017 or something?) 

      Sorry, my wording was kinda funky.

      But the album is definitely worth listening to. 

  5. Imagine being a part of the "people with cool abilities" chat lol /sarc Edit: I'm all for it
  6. Did Cin shoot Dan? Or was that you? So it's just TUN or Whysper I think For now I'll place my vote on TUN @Illwei, you think that Whysper is cleared for smoking Cin earlier? How confident are you about that read?
  7. <Whysper, Dan> is my best guess for the remaining elims currently
  8. Yes I know it's the same thing basically My stake never did it and this year I'm a senior so I won't be able to do FSY It was cool to meet some people from other places (One girl in my company was from the Philippines)
  9. Can verify that Mat claimed that Illwei was a village mistborn to me earlier this cycle after PMs opened. This progression makes no sense. If you're not evil, then where are the elims? :P. Illwei mentioned that there's probably a dichotomy between you and Cin- it'd be too powerful for one side to have both. If I really have been pocketed by Illwei, I'm sorry, but too many things don't make sense here for me. Yeah, I agree 100% Mat
  10. Less go first application officially submitted
  11. Cause I helped vote off an elim in a cycle when we would have lost unless we got one.
  12. Was that in the cards? Lol
  13. Cause I've been pushing E!Danex?
  14. @Just a Silvereye and @Cinnamon, how do you feel about switching to Dannex? Edit: Ditto
  15. TUN (4): Illwei, Mat, Silver, Archer Danex (2): Shining, Whysper @The Unknown Novel do you have anything meaningful to contribute? How do you feel about your exe?
  16. As Silhouette walked down the corridors of his imagination, he saw Bookwyrm's poster. Seems interesting, he thought, then asked his agent to contact Bookwyrm.
  17. Oh yeah, I've seen some of @Spock's work! No argument from me :P. Did you just lose confidence in real time? My experience: moderate Sight reading: those notes are suggestions anyway, right? Improv: high, expect some spicy chords Rhythm: have a tendency to overcomplicate things and get confused Groove: weakest part- friends say I gotta work on my "stank" face XD Currently: working on my BASS lines
  18. It's currently fantastically spectacular :D. Probably SA, Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn, and the Abhorsen series Terces?? I think it was called "the banana cream pie convention" or something, and I went in as a banana. So, we were all in these bananas suits, and they had this big banana split contest with lots of different toppings on it. They gave me the prize because I was the only one who actually tried to get their attention. There were so many other people, and everyone else just sat there eating their bananas without even trying. SMH my head, right? To get noticed, I jumped up onto this huge ice cream sundae and started yelling about how my banana wasn't getting any love. I won unopposed. How doth the little busy bee Improve each shining hour, And gather honey all the day From every shining flower! How skilfully she builds her cell! How neat she spreads the wax! And labours hard to store it well With the sweet food she makes. —Isaac Watts My friend got stung in the eye once.
