  1. Deception sees Star streaking through the air. "Be careful!", he says as he attempts to soulcast another prison around the Fused, who jumps out of it before it can form again. Then he sees the random singer and soulcasts a massive 3 foot tall brick in front of them to be used as cover. The Fused falls into a defensive stance and holds out his air-warping dagger towards Star, hoping to skewer her as she attacks.
  2. Well, yes. Clearly nobody should support the companies stealing copyrighted information and things like that, but that's true about any tool. It's a valid point that people need to learn perseverance. However, there is a delicate balance between "learning perseverance" and "slowly getting tortured into insanity".
  3. Then the moon fell out of the sky for no apparent reason and began to plummet towards Eia. The moon is a perfect sphere of stone 1000 miles wide.
  4. I think that the current way of gaining reputation (getting likes on posts) isn't quite enough. It would be great if you could get reputation points from engagement with your topics as well as likes. For example, if you got 1 reputation for every 5 replies on one of your topics, to a max of maybe 3-5 rep so things don't get out of control. Or what if you got rep when someone followed your topic? I have no idea if this is even possible (I know the framework the site uses is restrictive) but I think if it is, it would be a great addition to the Shard.
  5. Yes! My rep title thing is finally a living person!

  6. I like Jasnah and Dalinar the most. Jasnah because Elsecallers are cool and she is really good at her powers, and her philosophy of aspiration or whatever is interesting even if it may be immoral or she may be a hypocrite. Dalinar because Bondsmith and because he's just generally cool. SADEAS SUCKS.
  7. Welcome to the Shard! What Radiant order would you be, if you could choose?
  8. "Just distract him and I'll soulcast something", says Deception. The Fused quickly turns and hurls his dagger at Nox, drawing a new one from a crevice in his carapace.
  9. I would say this is a quite optimistic mentality compared to some people. I said that once things actually become problematic someone will actually use their brain and come up with a solution. That's just how humans work. Most people will ignore a threat until it is almost on top of them.
  10. "Emotions... just are?", whispers Crystal. "I will... consider that." "If she admits she's considering something it means she already made up her mind to believe it. Good job, Crystal."
  11. The Fused abandons his body and a red streak flies towards Star. "Wait, don't kill him. We need to get information. Keep him distracted and I will trap him", shouts Deception. Crystal slowly emerges from the shadows, finally having gotten over her fright at the anti-stormlight knife. "How can I help?" @GG0z @Through The Living Star
  12. "Star, why not?", yells Deception as he tries to soulcast a stone prison around the Fused. The Fused leaps out of the prison as it is forming. "Why are you still alive??? Sh- I mean the meteor - should have killed you all!!!" @GG0z @Through The Living Star
  13. But it's true. Do you really think that big companies are going to sacrifice their hard-earned money for something as trivial as the survival of humankind? No! Of course not! No, but really. Once things actually become problems for the companies, someone will think of a genius solution to end global warming. But until then we are stuck with "climate-friendly" laws that barely do anything, and companies dumping who-knows-what into the air and the ocean.
  14. Crystal collapses. "But I'm not supposed to make... mistakes..." @Through The Living Star @Through The Living Ketek
  15. "Why are you here?", yells the Fused. "The wrath of Val- I mean - the completely random meteor should have killed you all!". The Fused swings the knife at Deception, who quickly soulcasts a brick out of the air to block it, then jumps away. Crystal flinches. "I think that knife is anti-stormlight..." The Fused begins to chase Deception. @Ink and Embers @Through The Living Star @GG0z
  16. Deception swears the ancient words. "The purpose of an activity is to improve my skills, and results are secondary." He summons a Shardblade and swings, but misses the Husked one my a meter. "I haven't trained with shardblades!!!"
  17. Crystal seems relieved, but still argues. "But they aren't logical!"
  18. "Oh... It was, yes. I was... trying to make an elsegate. To go and watch. And then... I woke up with a broken leg", says Deception slowly. "Maybe we should get out of here". Suddenly, a Husked One materializes out of thin air and swings a strange knife towards Star. The knife seems to warp the air around it. Then he pauses, stumbling. "What? Wait. How am I still able to attack you? I thought the contract would enforce peace!", he exclaims. "Oh, well. All the better!". He regains his balance and swings again. @Through The Living Star @GG0z @Ink and Embers
  19. "Y-yes. But we don't need to focus on the past...", stutters Crystal. "Crystal. Please. You are a perfectly normal Inkspren, who has emotions, which are perfectly normal too", insists Deception. "Any help, anyone?" @Through The Living Star @Through The Living Ketek
  20. I mean yea that makes sense. You have to use AI as a tool to help you, not to replace you. If you use it to do half your work, but you spend 95% of your time on your half of the work, you won't be getting any dumber. If you want it to do the entire project and you spend your time mostly typing prompts and waiting for responses to generate, then you're kinda cooked.
  21. "Crystal! Stop it. Texture, you do have feelings. Crystal is just a bit confused.", says Deception. "Inkspren don't get confused!", insists Crystal. "I can't be confused! ...right?" "Crystal. Take a second to think about how you've been reacting and then tell us you don't have feelings". Crystal sags, then perks up again. "I value what is! I will not take a second to reflect on something like the past. That's for corrupted spren.", yells Crystal. "Ketek, any help?", grumbles Deception. @Through The Living Ketek
  22. "Crystal, you know that isn't true", interrupts Deception. "Feelings are illogical!", insists Crystal in a very emotional tone. "I don't have feelings! I'm a normal Inkspren. I'M A NORMAL INKSPREN! NO FEELINGS! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" @Through The Living Ketek
  23. I think it says there that the Skybreaker spren are the only spren to also swear oaths. Idk the exact quote, you can go find it if you want.
