Meh, you can hunt and peck. I don't quite do that but it is close. Use about four fingers generally. Though I can, somewhat, touch type...Kettlekorn wrote: Makes sense. Longhand is a lot simpler than typing since it only requires simple movements from a few fingers and your arm, mostly all working together. Typing is more like playing a piano since all eight fingers and both thumbs are involved independently, and with relatively tight timing. It's pretty impressive for something that we basically treat as a mundane skill that everybody is expected to do.

What is interesting is that if you look at TK they are a team of heavy hitters, none of them is particularly weak. Indeed, there is Hank who is a tank or brick, and Ayla another brick, then Chaka, who while she isn't a brick she is probably the best martial artist on campus, indeed if I were to make a guess if Ares would get over himself he'd know he was either there to teach her of learn from her, probably a little of both. Then there is Billy, another flying brick and probably some fragment of the Star Stalker, who knows just what she can do, but she may well be the most dangerous member of the team, though that is questionable. After Billy you have Jade, now to the outsider Jade seems to be the odd girl out among all the bricks on the team, but really she is possibly more dangerous than Billy as far as the amount of damage she can inflict and take. Then you have the premier spell slinger possibly the most powerful of wizards or sorceresses born in the last thousand years. Now Circe is older, and has had time to learn the absolute limits of her power and gain all sorts of dirty tricks she knows how to do... but for sheer access to power Niki is probably the more powerful, and when she was channeling Aung, she was unbelievably like a force of nature...
So a team featuring Jade and team Awesome? Scary scary stuff!!

On TK there is also the fact that Ayla is a brick that uses lots of high end holdouts

This is why the hamster cage and the Illudium PU-36 Explosive Space Demodulator should be clearly and obviously labelled when working in the teleportation laboratory.
How the hamster mind is coping with toggling between the kid bodies as the kids take turns driving the hamster body could make for some interesting reading.

Try a Star Trek type transporter accident. I'm doing something with it, but I'm taking it in a completely different direction.
And when you think about it, transporting people by disassembling them and reassembling them AT DISTANCE, is one of the DUMBEST ideas I've ever heard!

Attempting to recreate the fury twins ability's might also be a possibility. I don't know what good doing something like that would be or what anyone would be trying to blend together but it would be interesting. Maybe trying to make a cyborg hamster. Or a Eggman bot.

Better idea might be to unlock the essence of the alcohol letting it fully work even on regens and the like. Magic booze for the win.

2. It was also played just after the fight when they had the team reunion, and that scene focused a bit more on Blake and Yang, my personal rule with RWBY music, is to not use it for direct theory crafting unless its actually used in the show. though the intrumental for the second 2 lyrics of RLR1 was in "True Colors" said lyrics are the original BB support.

Ah. It might run into the "Why are you at Whateley" issue. What can a Mermaid be offered at Whateley, that can't be anywhere else, or preferred over anywhere else?
Thank you. I wasn't aware of her. I recognize the name Jana from Jade's stories, but didn't look into her more.
[EDIT] There is canonically the Court of the East which supposedly includes merfolk, it's just that we haven't met anyone connected to it yet. So far, we've mostly met the Sidhe of the west, and Anomaly who's tied to the center court.
I think there was a microscene at one point with a mermaid, but I don't know what became of it.

Insane Hiker's Faolan-verse stories have Bea Carson, Rose of the East. They have an interesting take on why one doesn't see many reps from the Eastern Court: Father Dagon and Mother Hydra corrupted them.
This microscene is explicitly based on the Eastern Court and end-of-days Atlantis, but the character isn't/wasn't a merman in the usual sense. Picture something more like one of the merrow-born than these people:
Or, not. The element of Water traditionally lends itself to illusions and hallucinations.

As for Jana, yeah, her original non-human form was a mermaid, and she still can change into one if she wants to... but the situations where it becomes a favourable form are far from common in Whateley. (I should have another chapter of her origin story out Any Century Now). I suppose that she used it to get out of the swimming requirement (not that she couldn't swim like nobody's business before, being an avid surfer and all -- but centaurs are not built for swimming). And she might use it for body-surfing and stuff while on vacations, since the options for balancing on a surfboard aren't very good either.

They are wonderfully friendly creatures.

One method would be for Imp to organise this, or Shine could act as a back-door supplier to the Blue Squirrel, with Imp acting as broker.
Alternatively, Shine could have a "Testing Lounge", where he gets exemplars to try out different new recipes. Charge for membership of the testing crew, and the drinks are free.
This would also allow him to classify the drinks as "Experimental prototypes", in the same way that Mal, and the Workshop Crew are able to carry the weapons that they do.
(Mal would have shared that legal loophole with ALL of the workshop, as part of the mutual self-defence pact that they have, like the Worn Wrench.)
As the drinks that are served in the Testing Lounge are "prototypes" undergoing "testing", they would not be covered by the BATC regulations, as they aren't officially on sale.
Taking some of them on to full sales, would only confirm this, so there would be incentive for the testers to give comprehensive feedback, which in turn, would extensive testing...

Caveats:
- I'm from the UK, so i only know about the UK's approach towards this. Any errors are due to my lack of knowledge of the USA's laws'n'regs, Comment and clarification would be useful.
- The UK tends towards a more pragmatic approach towards alcohol, though nowhere near France's level. This might be because we exported all of the prohibitionist lunatics to the USA in the late 1600's.
Sorry, but we don;t want them back.

Well, if you do that, just remember to bring plenty of Slim Whitman recordings.

The Lightning pictured is most likely an F or G model. It does not have the dropped chins under the props for the turbocharger intercoolers. Before the J models, the intercoolers for the turbochargers were ducting inside the leading edges of the wings, which cause significant issues at combat power rating. This was rectified in the J and later models.

Hmmn, it occurs to me that I never considered having my micro-scenes character Learned (Nasir bin Abdullah, paladin of Thoth) look like an Ibisoid. Might not be a bad idea. I mean, the only things I mentioned about him (in passing, since he wasn't in the micro itself , and I mostly discussed him in the comments ) was that he was a) an annoying brat (according to the paladin of Saravati, anyway), and b) he had to flee to the US when he manifested, and is now living with a foster family in Cairo, Illinois (ooh, irony-not-irony...).
You do realize, that keeping with Illinois tradition. Cairo, IL is not pronounced the way Cairo Egypt is.
Oh, yes, I am familiar with that; if nothing else, American Gods points out the "Kay-Roh' pronunciation, but I had heard about it elsewhere as well, though I don't recall where - one of the Turtledove Worldwar or Timeline-191 books, perhaps?

I also liked how Eragon was far from infallible. Some parts were a little clunky but that speaks to the author's experience at the timeKettlekorn wrote: I also enjoyed the Inheritance Cycle. There were a lot of stupid or clumsy bits, but it was fun anyway, and I especially liked the occasional Saphira POV chapters.
But since this is the bad ideas thread: Magically giving yourself huge calluses on your knuckles in the belief that this will let you use your superhuman strength to punch through steel without mangling your hand like you did last time.

Or Jericho provided the costume.

Honestly very tempted, but my kids are not Kimbas. Havoc doesnt' have to follow them around. They can visit Philly without carnage.

It does follow the "No that would be too obvious" philosophy of hiding in plain sight

You would think that would be the case - right up to the point where you're ready to walk in and put some earnest money down, cash on the barrelhead so to speak, only to find out that their stock in trade is framing interpersonal narrative of the existential according to a dialectic approach.

It had to be a functioning enterprise in and of itself.
In order not to be suspicious, the front has to be an almost-completely above-board business.
(I say almost, so as to allow for the small understandable errors that stop the Tax Office Inspectors from being suspicious.)

One the food is always great and for the most part the mobsters treat the restaurants as neutral ground. Maybe its a hold over from Sicily?

Especially since a lot of their business is in cash. Of course we have large cash deposits to make, we're a very successful upscale restaurant!Sir Lee wrote: Also: they are places where it's entirely normal for pretty much anyone to visit occasionally, sit for long periods and talk among themselves and with the servers, they receive regular shipments from a variety of suppliers (opportunities for contraband), there's a tradition of hiring people who don't have their papers all in order (so a good place to stash people on the lam), and there used to be quite a lot of informality in bookkeeping, so opportunities for money laundering.

Bonus points for channeling it into a massive laser that she fires from her Raising Heart. Excelion... BUSTA!!!
More bonus points if her eyes change color to match her name (and Tennyo's eyes when at full power) and that it requires that she pray to her roomate to access.
I do just want to see Jade pray to Oneesama.

Today, my semi-conscious came up with the idea for someone whose body is largely composed of candy and is completely edible. Naturally she'd have a high level of regen and high pain tolerance to complement having limbs ripped off. She'd also have to be a wondercute member. She'd also probably have lower durability than a baseline due to having a far more brittle skeleton (if she even has one). My initial thought is that it would be a type of warper trait like Puppet, but I'm not entirely sure.
If anyone wants to try writing this bizarre character that borders on cannibalism, go right ahead.

They would also be vulnerable to water, as it would dissolve the long-chain sugars.
Also as a Regen, they would have to watch their diet...

And yes, I actually unlocked this particular Achievement this past week, entirely by accident. It was a weird experience; I'm still not sure why I suddenly decided to do some coding after a few beers, but somehow, it really worked. Mind you, I am pretty sure my BAC was well below 0.1337% - that's pretty seriously hammered - but I guess it was just enough to get relaxed and stop overthinking the problem... and no, I am not going to start experimenting with that, I have enough health problems already thank you very much.
