  1. This wasn't monsoon. Just a really big storm. I couldn't find about any casualty. Nope. But I soon will. TPBM has a messy desk.
  2. Voted for Thaylen Field (not surprised to see that first). Reread that recently, "You cannot have my pain" hits in the guts every time. Battle of Luthadel in WoA might have been a contender but wasn't in the list If we're talking close-quarter fights, the Duel is certainly up there with both Kal vs Szeth fights, Kelsier on the fountain square, Wax vs Bleeder, and everything else I've forgotten.
  3. This was in my country 2 weeks ago. We don't really need more rain here now. (But I bet you we'll be desperate for it in a couple months). TPBM doesn't drink enough.
  4. Granted. You sprout. I wish for nothing.
  5. Really good indeed! I quite like the way you introduced the violet guard: they don't even need to do anything special to be just terrifying Waiting eagerly for the rest
  6. *more hugs* I'm sorry you have to go through all that and to deal with people like this. But as Lightweaver said, you can get through it. Just keep going, I know you can do it.
  7. If you're the doctor: "Oopsie, I just cut an artery." If you're the patient: "I was led to think the anesthesia started before the operation. Must have been wrong." If you're someone else: "Doctor, you're opening the wrong person, that guy was set to be put a knee prothesis!" WTWTTS in a cinema ?
  8. This is definitely your best Liz scene yet. And that's not a low bar.
  9. I am not lds. As to whether I'm christian... it's complicated. I don't believe in God, but I feel generally close to christian values. (Meaning in very short: consider everyone as your family, do good around you, be ready to forgive people. I feel obligated to clarify, because sadly over the centuries people have put lots of things I completely disagree with under the "christian values" umbrella.) And some of my happiest memories are from my time in a church group a couple years ago. So I would sum myself up as "agnostic but close to the line with christian". Wow, this took way more time to explain than I thought it would.
  10. Spoilered for length. But it needed to get out in some way.
  11. Yeah absolutely! What was on my mind was more about his hatred for nobles being turned up to an 11, and him being painted as 100% evil because of that. Maybe even trying to kill all nobles through some cartoonishly evil Hemalurgic ritual, with black smoke and all. (He knows about Hemalurgy because... we said so?) Completely missing the point of how the same person can be a hero in some circumstances and a villain in others. But your suggestion is even better. Well, worse. Ah, you know what I mean.
  12. Kelsier would be now much nicer in TFE, because Hollywood would be scared to have someone line him as one of the heroes of the movie. Then when we get to Ghostbloods stuff, either he is an hypervillain all of a sudden or he is still completely nice. Alternatively, he is just straight up evil from the get-go.
  13. This made me feel strange emotions I don't know the words for. Keep up the great work you're awesome
  14. So uh Remember this? Well, guess what happened these last couple days. Back to the start, everyone. Again. I hate myself so much.
  15. Really cool list of hobbies! Even though I have no idea what is NHD. Also, link to your really cool writing thread (everyone, go check it out if you haven't) 9/10 (one point off for misnaming football )
  16. Love your new profile pic!

    Also unrelated, but can we be Shardbuddies?

  17. Love the contrast between the two halves! 10/01 Also, I don't think we've interacted before, so welcome to the Shard!
  18. I am catching up only now after my break, but this is incredible! Liz is really terrifying right now. And the short scenes are so good. Especially "Young". *hugs* Also, completely off-topic, but can we be Shardbuddies?
  19. Happy new year, everyone! 🥳

    For those wondering, I wasn't here for the last few days because I've been vacationing, with my grandparents and then my parents and siblings. For the first time since maybe years, I managed to take a clean break without something from work turning in my head. And it felt wonderful.

    General update (State of the Silvereye, if you can call it that) for those interested in my nighttime ramblings : 

    Spoiler

    And so, 2023 comes to an end. The most confusing year in my life. The year that should have been a fresh start after the brutal mess that was 2022. 

    A fresh start right into the ground, that was.

    It was the year where I spent months stuck in place, battling with myself over one of the worst coping mechanisms I could imagine. 

    But it was also the year where I learned the most about myself, even if there was things I would have preferred not to learn. It was the year where I started reconquering my mind. Hopefully, with success this time.

    And now, I feel more than ready to start anew in 2024. And I am also scared, for this is the fourth new start in a brief time, and guess how the previous ones went. I had my plans to take back control over myself, and first point was getting to bed earlier, for I was really sleep deprived those last months. It is nearly midnight as I write this. Ah, well.

    Do I even belong anywhere now? After all the rumbling of those past two years, always jumping from place to place, is there anywhere who knows me anymore? Am I even able to talk to someone anymore?

    Who am I by now, in fact? I know I changed, but how much? Are those things I used to define me still defining me? Is what I thought true about me not true anymore? Or did I went back in time?

    Pics from holidays below. Im not the best photographer out there, please dont be too harsh:

      Ooh, that looks so beautiful!!

      *hugs hugs hugs* Belonging is so hard. I wish I knew how to help, but...it's hard. It's so scudding hard, even when you aren't moving around. I hope you can find a place someday, and for now...you'll always belong here ❤️

      Thank for the hugs! ❤️

      Yeah it was a really beautiful place. It was great.

      And yeah, I am grateful the Shard exists. You all have been really awesome all this time, and you were one of the few constants in otherwise very unstable, weird, and confusing years.

      Keep being great, y'all. You are making such a difference sometimes.

  20. 645. If you build a defense that can resist an assault by X enemy soldiers, then the bad guy will show up with 2X soldiers at least. Or a new weapon that makes your defense useless.
  21. To let me sum it up: your parents make you trouble because you have trouble going to sleep at a decent hour. And then, when you need them to solve it, they tell you no because apparently never sleeping a full night is not a big problem? The only suggestion I have here would be to try to go through your school doctor if you have one. Your parents might listen more to a trained professional.
  22. *prepares for storm* I (slightly) preferred Metro 2034 to Metro 2033.
  23. Indeed, that's actually how I saw mine.
