    ...Spheres are that small? How do they not always roll away?

    Mercy withdrew her attention from the broader cosmere, turning her focus back to her system. The supernova was bearing down, and she had to be ready. She started to act, but something nagged for her attention. Frowning, she concentrated her presence on the populated planet. Horror. How could this have happened? She had only been away for a short time... While she had been gone, a disease had started. It spread like wildfire through the people with shocking lethality, lining the ground with corpses. Few had survived. The people, accustomed to her removing their suffering, were left entirely susceptible to disaster. In a short period of time, the entire planet was desolated. Anibelmeth steeled herself. She could eliminate the disease. She could restore civilization. She could- She- She had allowed this to happen. No, not allowed. She had caused it. It was only due to her negligence that the catastrophe was able to become so great. On the surface of the planet, Anibelmeth formed a body. She knelt, the snow crunching as she stared down at the lifeless face of a young boy who had been taken. A single tear dropped from her eye, crystalizing before it hit the ground. No. She could not let this happen again. Never. She could not afford them her grief, as she was far too critical. She would do what needed to be done. Anibelmeth grasped the strands of time, searching, but she already knew. Her plan could no longer work. She doubted it ever would have, but she had wanted it to so badly, to find a different way. A better way. But now... now Anibelmeth saw. As the blast of the supernova raced ever closer, she saw. She could not save them now. But she could do them one final act of service. One last mercy. She killed them. All of them. All the ones who had survived the disease, killed in a single painless instant. Far better this way than the suffering that they would experience as the supernova tore them apart. The light from the supernova finally reached the system, blasting the outermost planet to bits. She grabbed the two seeds it brought with it and tore them away, ignoring the ensuing screams that rippled through the Spiritual Realm as the system's soul was sundered. This way, she would be free of her self-imposed cage, free of what had been stopping her from fully committing to her goal. She strode from the system, leaving behind all her previous efforts. In her wake, destruction followed as it was set ablaze, entire planets crumbling to bits. She did not mourn. She did not look back.

    No. The sandwich is life. The sandwich is everything. Without the sandwich, there is only despair and torment. The pigeon is a mildly entertaining bird.

    Sounds like something either a really good or really terrible teacher would do.

    Agony could feel the pain: resentment, suffering, defeat, impotence, roiling anger, all stewed for years. And all directed at one person. How ought I to say this?
  10. Through The Living Ash
    Yeah the beat it just got stuck in my head, but also very satisfying plot-wise.
  11. Through The Living Ash
    "Do what you will."
  12. Through The Living Ash
    Also true. I didn't memorize them on purpose; my sisters are obsessed with the song and so it kinda happened on accident from just getting it stuck in my head too much.

    The figure steps forward into the light, revealing a shorter, unassuming woman with long black hair. "Then to answer your question, Agony, I do have pain." She smiles. "A great deal of it."
  14. Through The Living Ash
    ... you didn't notice when you were posting on her talk thread? Nice!
  15. Through The Living Ash
    "Pray tell me, what is your name?"
  16. Through The Living Ash
    "And you do so by removing the source of the pain." It was stated as a fact, not a question.

    Gakk I ran out of rep And then I checked this thread And now I'm sad because there are a whole buncha posts where I keep futilely clicking the button, knowing that it's going to say no every time.

    No, I find myself using pi way more than I ever use root 2. Root 2 usually only shows up for actual square root things and some trig things, but pi is there for everything with a curve.

    I just discovered EPIC in the past week, and now I am completely obsessed. Who gave people the right to make a musical this good? Should be illegal for what is has done to my brain. Ummm favorite song is probably Different Beast

    Over the 2.5 weeks I was gone, I got 280 notifs, which is about 15 notifs a day. Today was the first day that I actually started being active again, and I have accrued 80 notifs. I hadn't noticed before, but I think me being active makes the people who follow me be more active as well, which in turn makes me even more active.

      It's a viscous cycle! Or a positive one. Depends on your view!
