  1. I’ll play! I don’t know Zelda at all so I’m not going to be able to roleplay but I am very familiar with social deduction games so it’ll be fun!
  2. Night is watching the newcomers from the sky. Another conflicted one. She hadn’t seen a problem like this since the one with the mask. A sparrow made of stardust swoops down and sits on a branch, singing in an eerily human voice. “You were laid in verse, living on a promised word, I am the rose you relinquished again.”
  3. It’s a joke. I’m trying to be friendly. Sorry
  4. “Mhm. Why? Do you play the flute and spend your days pretending to be a coat hang-“ It was around this time that the shockwave of a fundamental metal explosion reached Eden, giving her a feeling of dread. ”Um, being magic and all, would you know what the heck just happened?” Oh no, a narrative parallel! Quick, 9/10 needs to leave Inkwells brain before I have something in common with someone!
  5. The idea was more to stabilize it or keep it from being able to reach 100% mordite purity, at which point Inkwell would lose mental control over it and it would be able to damage him, being at least an effective weapon against lesser withergeists. I have subtly tried to make it so there is a bit of a personality effect. “I think there’s some irony in the name. What would you suggest, and what do you mean about my soul?” —— It was settled then. The weak one had defected. After all this time, the Author had grown strong enough to put it on his leash. It was time to send in a real Flaw to end this world. At the very edge of reality, the farthest point in any world from anything considered worth traveling to, where the universe itself expanded faster than the speed of light, a jagged red spike stabbed through the border between TLT and all other stories. The blade retracted, the Longest Thread inexplicably bleeding like a human being. The blood of a thousand worlds pooled on a surface that wasn’t there, in deep space, ignoring all natural laws of physics as a figure grew out of it. Sanguine sniffed. This place smelled more of author than any other world he had visited. He floated in deep space, relishing the prospect of a thousand characters’ pain. No, focus. He was here for 9/10mmHB#2. That one would pay for his betrayal.
  6. Well, if the Dreamsmith couldn't provide 9/10 a body, it wasn't Inkwell's fault. He could probably figure it out himself, given a little inspiration. "Um. I had a friend who lended it to me before I came here. She... died. I think she must have been a Narrator, or some equivalent from my world. I might have broken a piece off of it by accident. Before that it couldn't create anything within a narrative magic system, like a lightsaber or a god metal." He pondered the pen for a while. "The Lost Pages have been stolen. Maybe what the Thread needs is something that can fight withergeists." He thinks of Futility, which has mysteriously returned to his belt in its improved form. He remembers how it reacted to Fog when she touched it- drawing mordite from her mist, the inksteel trying to absorb as much mordite as possible to improve the copy. "The sword. You're familiar with mordite weapons?" im going to guess, is "ambient C. L." Creative Light? Inkwell notices a guarded expression on the Dreamsmith's face at the mention of a mordite weapon. "I have one, my own creation. Or partially mine, partially 9/10's. It... reacted curiously to a withergeist's touch. I have the feeling that it could become a powerful tool in the coming days, but it's still dangerous. Volatile. When it touched the withergeist, I could feel the mordite in the weapon reacting, feeding. I don't want it damaging my soul. Luxite is lost, and would paint a target on my back, but... what would happen if it was alloyed with... Nullite perhaps?"
  7. Opinions, valid enough
  8. No it’s funny and this is TLT would you prefer Thrift Store Sauron?
  9. No I didnt i grew up with a PlayStation, which means Horizon: Zero Dawn, the best game you have never heard of (first game came out like two weeks after Fortnite got popular, the second game out after a Legend of Zelda title. But I think its better than both)
  10. I have never owned anything from Nintendo and I know what a Yoshi is. Like, were you locked inside your house your entire childhood
  11. “Do you mind if I wait for it to finish? If 9/10mmHB#2 fails, I’m going to have to ask for a body for it. And if it succeeds…” He held out the arcadian pen to the Dreamsmith. “I’d need this… improved. It’s similar to Narration but on a leash, so to say. I think it could be more powerful than your average Narrator, with your help. I’m not even sure how it works, though from what I know about this world it’s bound to contain at least a little prismite. You might be able to understand what it is better than I.”
  12. Sorry, I meant like the titles. As far as I can tell the last one is 10k? It’s impressive
  13. Glass how the heck have you been here for two years and are just about to max out on reputation there are people here for like ten years that don’t have half that
  14. Still waiting for my physics class to teach me something useful like the formula for social expertise. all I learned is that if you mow the lawn and put the lawnmower back where you found it you haven’t done any work
  15. It’s Nameless whole thing, I can’t tell if he’s seriously going to try and destroy the Thread, in which case I will have to start abusing Undertale and Wheel of Time references
  16. Well, you see, hamsters all over the Cosmere have continued to thrive, but then evil intern bound his soul to an evil axe, failed to steal a magic sword, and successfully stole a piece of paper that lets him summon Bargain Mart Voldemort and is about to destroy all hamsters (and everything else) so that’s happening
  17. “Don’t give 9/10 the credit. I think something terrible just happened at the vault, and it will be preoccupied at worst, at best we’ll have a tenuous alliance. I think when I was in its head, I got some idea of what it is. It’s not a character in the usual sense- and it came here with me, so if I hadn’t been so curious to come here, it wouldn’t exist in TLT in the first place. It is here because of me, has the sword because of me, and it’s already my responsibility. At this point I just have to hope we all survive long enough to have to worry about it.” He realized he was rambling. The experience had rattled him, certainly. “All this to say. Yes. I swear it. I will oppose 9/10mmHB#2.”
  18. “Well that’s just great. But at least there’s continuity.” Inkwell pulled out the pen, which was full of opaline ink. “I’m sorry for this. It’s a bit of my fault. I’ll see what I can do, bring Larid and the others justice.” The realm that Inkwell occupied suddenly rippled, the boundary between reality, perception, and the mind warping and twisting under the weight of an invisible force. For a few moments Inkwell occupied Omen’s clearing, a grassy field with an entity of fire and light, and the desert outside the vault, which had broken open in several places by what looked like some sort of an explosion. He could feel Futility vibrating along with the wave, drawing him somewhere else. Then he snapped back to the clearing, all other sensation lost to him. I mean I guess in that case you could exploit that loophole, but it would be better if you looked into the characters secrets not their plans, that way the reactions are better. Well then someone better go on a character arc.
  19. You know what? I have a plan. Don’t look into these spoilers if you’re Nameless. I’m not saying their all good ideas but their ideas
  20. Well this is fine We need a gosh darn protagonist, but none of my characters are relevant enough. Also I would suck at writing a main protagonist Someone cool should make a bid for Protagonist.
  21. yall are awesome, i really appreciate how friendly you guys have been. its like 12:26 and i should be sleeping cause i get up at 6 tmrw to go to school and have a whole freaking presentation and quizes and crem to do but uh, fun fact my name comes from a bible character whose name means respite or peace so i wish you all respite or peace, you especially Glass and imma get some sleep
  22. I don’t like violence? I’ve experienced it and it’s a stupid thing when that becomes a part of someone you love, but I don’t think it’s really funny to joke about flying to a real persons house to “mutilate” them. I don’t know, im interjecting where I don’t really belong because this is Glass’s problem its really a not great situation though and I sympathize
