i don’t understand why anyone would ever want to play an Exalted/WoD crossover
Some people enjoy the continuity references, or the idea of being able to fix things in the World of Darkness, others the chance to roflstomp certain NPCs or have a world where they themselves are one of the most powerful beings there, even compared to the elders within that world.

On naming.
prokopetz:
I’ve been reading Homer lately, and a thought just occurred to me.
One of the major characteristics of epic poetry - both in ancient Greece and elsewhere - is the use of epithets. These short descriptive phrases are employed whenever an important character is mentioned, and may or may not incorporate that character’s name.
For example, if you need to mention Agamemnon, you’d never...

astrakiseki reblogged your post: So I watched Goldeneye again (turns out I’ve been getting spoilt since Craig)
I have to ask, who the heck searches pairing tags with 00Q when there’s a whole tag system devoted to pairings?
I track the 00q tag on tumblr, and I get the new Ao3 fic in my google reader if it’s tagged “James Bond/Q”.
Does that answer your question?

Okay, that’s the fifth application I’ve sent this month. I know it’s not a lot, but it’s the most I’ve ever done. Three to Synthetic Genomics (though one was declined already; it’s been a few days) and two just now to Salk Institute. I’ll try to do Scripps Research and Theranos later, and maybe Quest Diagnostics…

Perry's Adventures Part 1
So right now, Perry has gotten to Petalburg and just helped Wally get his first pokemon. On the way, he acquired Sage the Modest Treeko, Irene the Docile Poochyena, Davy the Hasty Wingull, and shockingly, after fighting a poochyena on route 102 (and losing Irene due to being out of a potion), encountered a Docile Ralts for his first new pokemon, who was promptly caught and named Merlin. Only way...

New Timey-Wimey Nuzlocke Emerald run
I beat Wallace as Autumn, looking Kage-kun the Sableye during one of the Elite Four fights, and Julia the Tropius against his Wailord (damn Blizzard). I didn’t have the heart to continue, though I did win, as I had way too many deaths for my liking, even with the timey-wimey clause (three rows in my Graves box full) so I’ve started a new game of it as a boy named Perry.
The rules for...

On the matter of Prince Diamond

astrakiseki:
Is it really that hard to remember he’s a guy?
I mean, sure, if you aren’t used to the Delzhan, it’s one thing. But seriously, once it’s explained, is it that hard?
I’ll call him whatever he wants if he tells me where he got those boots.
Personally, I’d throw in just honorifics if he told me where he got the boots.

After last game, we ended up discussing the possibility of the Midnight Krewe having an orgy. The conclusion was based on the synergy of the group, it was very likely.
I sort of want to write it, but it’d be best done as a noodle incident, with everyone waking up the day after and their Geists all facepalming.
Except Zee, the damn lech. He’d call it a perfect Tuesday and Justin...

I’ve been at my school’s library for most of the day since 10am, so I guess aside from working on this game, I’m taking this summer break from school by going to school
And forgetting to eat and sleep a lot, but when has that not been a thing
Wow, seriously, everything is moving so fast. Okay, I need to eat because all I’ve consumed in the past 24 hours has been a two...

i think there should be AU’s and then there should be UA’s
because Universe Alterations would be a good name for when your characters are in the exact same universe but you’re altering just a couple of plot points or a few character traits

So I'm playing a Fairest.
I know she is a dual-kithed Flowering/Treasured; her Keeper turned her into a fashion accessory for his precious courtiers and she spent years like that. I know her flower is the rose, and that her Keeper was a Handsome Devil who had whisked her away into a cutthroat political domain where only the lovely survived and no darkness fell.
But… the thing is, I don’t want her to have...

Enter the hero, full of someone’s interpretation of masculine charm. (Read: A complete, overbearing dick.)
Enter the heroine, who takes one look at the hero (asshole) and says, “No.”
The hero responds, “You’re wrong. You mean yes.”
The heroine tells him, “Get the fuck out.”
I don’t like the way the standard romance novel does dubcon, because they...

Buh I want to do another Nuzlocke, this time for Pearl, but I don’t want to delete my old game. :< I have over 200 hours on it…
But it’d be nice to play a game of it on something that isn’t Emerald with a dead battery…
