  1. When you start making a D&D character based on Earthbending and end up making a Mistborn
  2. Cep blinks. "Oh. Ah think ah see what's goin' on. We've been talkin' 'bout me. We're tryin' ta figure out who might know how ah wound up here."
  3. *hugs* I second this *more hugs* I have contacts...they make my eyes really dry though so I just wear my glasses and accept the risk that they will break (which my last pair did a month ago. Admittedly I was wearing them while stickfighting so...not unexpected) Existential dread: check Replay every mistake: check check Plan out an entire D&D character, complete with novel-length backstory and Heroforge design, all of which I will forget by morning: check check check
  4. Absolutely Best combination, if we're being honest
  5. I really like this explanation, that's a good way of phrasing and connecting it I think I tend to follow science on this and accept that the world came from condensed energy; that, of course, gets to the question of "where does that energy come from," which I think at this point is where most religions that accept science have begun to stem from; the belief that this energy is God (oversimplification of a really abstract concept; I'm sorry if that is insulting or otherwise off-mark, it was not intended to be, but I'm struggling with how to word it and that's the best I could come up with). Whatever you think of that source energy, though, the question is "where did that energy come from," which kinda leaves us with...it was always there, and unless the laws of physics break down when we get that far back (which we think they might, so this isn't foolproof), that energy literally always existed. Like forever. Which is a long way to say, I don't really think we are really capable of finding a good answer to that unfortunately This makes a lot of sense to me. As an atheist/agnostic/it's complicated, I still have a belief system, it just doesn't center around a God or gods (unless we're joking around). For me, my belief system is my martial art, which provides me with a community, a set of morals, and a kind of structure to my path, which—as an outsider looking in—seems to be what many religions (in the traditional sense, not the sense argued for here) provide at their most basic level. I'm honestly not sure how we got to the point where it has to be based on a God or gods or powerful spirits to be a religion, and it makes me wonder if we're misinterpreting ancient "religions" like the Egyptians because we're trying to align them with our traditional views of how religions should be.
  6. Cep turns to find Utility standing next to him. "Aaagh!" He screams before composing himself. "Yeh were there, too," he says. He continues looking around. "And ah ran into Kiri not too long after that...ah think they're around here somewhere." Kiri was there the second time Cep appeared, the first was Utility and Rebus talking on a beach.
  7. "Ummm..." Cep searches around. He points at Rebus (@Dragonheir). "He was nearby, and..." He continues searching. @Through The Living Glass where's Utility?
  8. "That would be appreciated. Maybe yer knowledge o' this Thread can help. Yeh seem to have a fairly good grasp o' it all."
  9. The rebellion is put down by the rock soldiers
  10. Average kindergartener experience Also: jeez. The last time it got that windy here was in the tornado two years back.
  11. Old-school movie method The nuke goes off inside the world and explodes it outward
  12. You clipped the wrong wire
  13. "Ah guess so...but ah don' remember what exactly. Ah guess this is a start, though. Maybe ah can somehow get the rest o' my memories back somehow. At least ah hope. Ah'm not sure how, though." Cep shakes his head and frowns at the floor, thinking.
  14. It's pretty common to use "gay" for "queer" where I'm from, idk if it's regional
  15. Yeah that makes sense. That's good though! From what I understand at least. But yeah, that's tough.
