BECAUSE THE DARK SIDE IS TAKING OVER.

LET THE HATE FLOW THROUGH YOU.

Because you didn't pay attention to the post count?

Between my ancient laptop and my Wii U, my devices don't like me. The former is really slow, the latter eats my posts sometimes.

I'm going to make a post for Frontier soon.

Oh, I didn't think you wanted Ethoya to keep interacting with him. Well... Discoverer is gonna literally open a door to where Ora and Ira are to try letting them out. So if you still want to react to Discoverer I could post today.

Currently though, I just started episode one of My Hero Academia on VRV so... Don't be surprised if it takes me a few hours. I'm also planning on introducing Reily in Club Bizarre and Conrad before Ryya & Kokoro. As for Graveyard... If I don't end up tired first, I'll probably post later or after 12.

She is planning to leave, aye. I just wanted to know if you had anything for the Discoverer to say to her first. If nothing, that's quite understandable.

Okay, I edited in a segment for Discoverer. Regarding other characters, I'm still currently engrossed in watching Hero Academia.

Okaaay I'm gonna work on a post for Dream. Probably just going to respond to Vince's question.

Writing that post took way longer than it needed to and I also have a raging headache.

I keep going back and forth on the character(s) I want to use for Space Liner. I think part of the problem is that since I'm writing space opera, basically anybody could fit into the thread in a way that isn't usually true.

I think I'm gonna move John and Akira somewhere else in Space Liner eventually.

So I finally posted for Golden Being, with him basically admitting utter defeat and waiting in silence for a Fate Worse than Death to be inflicted on him. Regarding Heart Forge and Cerebral Dungeon, I can't really make an estimate.

When it comes to Space Liner, there's a high probability I'll introduce Conrad & Mancipium today. Their introduction? Conrad getting thrown out of a portal by a god and nonchalantly getting caught by Mancipium.

@Kkutwar, why is the Golden Being making so many assumptions on what Sentinel will try to do, and why do so many sound like a complete misinterpretation of what I answered when you asked what Sentinel would do to heal Armory Knight? Specially considering the Golden Being has absolutely no way of knowing enough of the information I gave you to be able to make a unfavourable misinterpratation of it, or any interpretation at all?

And why does he accuse her of not knowing about souls by using he supposed inability of making soul matter for him when he only told about needing soul matter after the vision he sent to her traumatized her and drove her to the edge of death?

PS: anyway, I am glad this mess is ending. I may have to discuss in PMs before making my post when my turn does come however.

PSS: and I already clarified Sentinel does not plan to impose a Fate Worse than Death on the Golden Being, and that said impression you had comes from a piece of incomplete and exagerated information in one of my posts in this thread.

So I must ask: WHY THE HELL the Golden Being expects an horrible fate and where did he get his misconceptions on what Sentinel may try to do from?

EDIT2: sorry for sounding angry, it is just that this plotline wasn't what I wanted, even if I admit it was useful. And maybe seeing the Golden Being act like he is completely innocent and blame and accuse Sentinel time after time struck some wrong cords.

It really all comes down to the fact the guardian claimed no soul matter would be needed, the fact there's two soul manipulators plus a destroyer, and the fact he remembers how the others were so certain he's arrogant.

So overall: He knows soul matter is needed, and if he acts out then AK is the only one who could be destroyed. Regarding why he expects thing to go badly, there were several accusations he took over AK and really only Sinistrina managed to empathize with him.

That and Blue-and-Orange Morality: Only AK and to a lesser extent Patches matter to him. So it isn't too surprising he thinks everyone was being unreasonable selfishly hogging their soul stuff, when they'll be fine when reality reincarnates meaning to him- AK was the only one who genuinely needed their soul parts.

Oooh, now I'm really anticipating a Graveyard post... though I'll have to wait for Corvidae to post there first. Talking Sinistrina out of a Death by Despair optional, since the way I imagined it so far, Sentinel's spirit's vision should be enough to snap her out of it. (Hooray for more introspection!) And I also thought that the Golden Being would give the Sentinel a chance to repair Armory Knight... I mean, I could have Sinistrina make an attempt at repairing what's left of his soul, but I was kind of hoping that the Sentinel would simultaneously "reconstruct" him - especially the memories thing. (Basically I was going to have Sinistrina make some part of his body into something like a Heart Drive, which the fused memories would have greatly helped with.)

Speaking of Sinistrina, I'm kind of surprised... Out of all my characters, including several exotically-named ones from Orenya, it's Sinistrina whose name has gotten misspelled. And yet people have no problem with Nemaforte, Amiluet, and the like... Found that kind of funny - maybe we should even make it a Running Gag.

AK's entire body is pretty much already closely intertwined with his soul, though admittedly Helga didn't mean to do that. Still though, while one can magically patch up a soul in Vitality Underground, that's still rather different from restoring it. Overall, I'm banking on Weird Shenanigans between Sentinel's & Sinistrina's attempts clashing and interacting strangely with GB's Defiant nature.

So admittedly, I was planning on a Weird Explosion of Power, with AK being at the epicenter and in a new form. Ultimately his body isn't damaged, and more sentient putty.

Ladytanuki, I posted if you didn't notice.

So, the sickbay group people, Kkutwar gave me a hook, shall I barge in?

Oh. OH. I must go and fix that. Though, that means I've got less of a reason for Kokoro to accidentally call Sinistrina "Sinestro". Though I could have Kokoro mispronounce her name.

I'll admit that I've occasionally had to check the spelling on a few of my characters, and I generally use real names. I've lost count of the number of times I've forgotten a letter on Cynthia (and then promptly had spellcheck notify me it was misspelled. Does jack for Japanese names, though).

Sure, go for it.

I'm working on a post for Moreena, but I'll let Novis catch up first.

@Will: Oh, I actually have a lot of trouble trying to find out how to spell Japanese words. Though other than that, is it okay with you if I introduce a character of my own near Kokoro?

Sure.

I gradually pick up various names and terminology over time. Usually enough that I can do a search for the right term.

No post today. The day was a little too busy.

@Blackfire: Do you mind if I move John and Akira somewhere else?

Let's see... As a polite reminder(cause sometimes the character order can get disorganized), I'm waiting upon:

• Frontier: Blackfire (Rin)
• Dream II: Kkutwar (The Midnight Stitcher), and Yomegami (God-Empress of Childkind Maggie)
• Space Liner: Blackfire (Kiryu), Kkutwar (Loki & Natalie), and Brain Sewage (Tigris)

So it is. My bad.

Wasn't the post order Tagui-Ferisen-Ruka?
