Go To

Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.

And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.

In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

Are you sure, John? Whatever those "Abyss Mages" are, they're nothing compared to Viltrumites.

Just because we can kill doesn't give us the right, Nolan.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/role_model.jpg Indeed, killing them shouldn't be the immediate option to take from my perspective.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/spirit_animal.jpg Yeah, that probably should be the last resort if there's no other way to deal with them.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/canine_cutie.jpg   I guess underneath all that deep frosting, he looks similar to that wolf from a rather obscure classic game.   

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hapihapitchi_fly.jpg   You sure he'll be okay after thawing out? Even a living machine might take time to recover after that. aroo.   

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kiddie_chick.png   That certainly will be a really odd feeling, waking up from a state of being both frozen and unconsciousness.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/melodytchi_good.png Stolen? Don't you think you should try to return it if that's the case? Then again, if the owner isn't around it wouldn't hurt to keep him.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lovelitchi_pink_flowers.png Best to give him a home since he seemed likely that he was abandoned from that state he's in. Our day has been lovely btw.

they clearly neglected Amaterasu (even gave him the name NBE-01, which means they see him as a "it") so i decided to give him a home at my garage

Guys, i checked my Garage, He is gone, what happened

The thing looks like some kind of salt-encrusted plastic toy, judging from the images you've sent and by the fact that you found it near the Hoover Dam - although idk much about the water quality at the dam. Maybe someone stole it.

[1] Technology can be anything manmade that exploits the laws of physics to accomplish a particular task. A liquid nitrogen cooled freezer can be technology, even if the only moving parts involved are the fluid pump, the fluid itself and maybe the door hinge, but there's also this:

robotarm.mp4 Shows a manufacturing robot arm inside one of EV's many universal assemblers, cutting out shapes from a metal plate using a voiding ray.

To make stuff like this, all you need is a solid grasp on the laws of your reality and some ingenuity.
