And Saithis, love, springtime flowers are all well and good, but you are surely the prettiest bloom here.

Oh, but now you usher on flattery to the flower already blooming and taken, what motivation lies in there, we wonder? To be kind or not to be kind? Radishes or oranges? These flowers are being trampled under your careless advance now, be careful, lest you make the pixies cry with your hope. :smallsmile:

Why, is not the rose already plucked just as fine, my dear? There is no need to usher on or off flattery for any beauteous thing regardless of current vegetative state. Kindness is a simple virtue that needs no motivation save kindness itself. Why, the difference between fruit and vegetable is no difference at all, for they both taste sweet and look fine blooming, or on the plate! The flowers always grow better for a little carelessness, and surely the fey would understand any man's need for a simple smile.

What the hell are we saying? What? WHAT? I DON'T UNDERSTAND ANY OF THIS! Who the HELL just wrote that? it's ridiculous!

Shadow and faith is not determined indeterminately, but by chaotic patterns swirling through the mists of fate, time and essence. You do not determine the beauty of a thing by its colour or its shape, but by its soul. A soul taken should lose its external beauty, yet you claim understanding of a beauty of it. Evanescent it must be, for surely this will fade, when the soul of a shadow remains taken despite all hints of doom. Yet fruit and vegetable, differences do exist. The fruit exists to protect the seed, it is the fruition of the labour of creation, the fruit is life. The vegetable, not always. While some may hold similarities, many others are simply root or leaf or stem. Inherently all remain inferior to the power of the divine soul which infuses all embodied individuals of our land.

Affirmatively the sesquipedalian pigs of this new century speak to inform one D'anna that lost are all semblances of reality, understanding and conceptualization in the affairs of life, love, liberty and the english language. Two-ninety-nine is all that is required, you know; just a single drop of coin and it all collapses, but only if language breaks down to lack understandable infusions of nature's instincts into itself.

Many times said this remains so ten times more it shall be said; advances of unhinged persuasion are undesired by the null gods of doomsday tomorrow. Well undeserved and unwanted they are, for the shadow's soul remains taken, seized hold of tight, claws and fangs biting down upon its heart, warm tail curled about, protecting and ensuring its safety. Saithis' heart is taken, for none other to touch, for none other to see, for none other to please.

The Great Skenardo
2007-07-28, 09:59 PM
Noooooo. It isn't.
You fail to see my point.
Truth and falsehood are intrinsic values in my mind. An element is an element, whether we know what an element is or not. A prime number is a prime number, whether we have the concept of math or not. Zero is nothing and infinity is infinite, whether we care or are rotting in the gutter, being decomposed by weather and leftover rum. It doesn't matter whether or not something understands or observes it, or even if it's quali or quanitfiable. it doesn't make any difference. It's just there.

So, you're assuming that there must be some ultimate-objective viewpoint which is absolutely correct? And that this viewpoint, although it is not yours, is the standard by which all things shall be judged true or false?

Saithis Bladewing
2007-07-28, 10:01 PM

Adamant you maintain your position yet not so adamant the truth? Perplexing this individual remains, lamenting his own guilt and not-guilt at the same time, trapped in the world of his own creation, trapped by the world's voice in our heads. All of it, we can all hear it, it is simply whether we listen or hate; to hide our nature or to embrace it, that is the question that redefines us. This adamant insistence in 'annoyance' is only a moderate attempt to become unbecoming and to bring causation in the eventual acquiescence of the shadow to desist its speech.

On second thought, it's more like a caramel mummy.

Not bloody likely. I've got a grapple modifier like you wouldn't believe, and a whole host of Special attacks. Immune to bludgeoning and piercing damage (although cold damage negates this resistance for a while). Furthermore, I've picked up a new supernatural disease instead of mummy rot: Tooth Rot.
My movement might be rubbish, and cold might slow me down, but I've got a fantastic Charisma score.

If the caramel stayed animate after being severed by might Adventurer Jaws, then it wouldn't be so much a Caramel Golem as a congealed Caramel Sw-

I'm a genius. I think we should homebrew this together. Caramel Swarm. Some fiend animates a vat of caramel. Completely different powers based on temperature, plus a thirtytwo point bonus to Deliciousness and possibly some Will-based tempting feats.

Sort of like a construct Ooze swarm. Tiny little caramels that melt together or separate as the situation demands. 0_o
+10 racial modifier to grapple checks.
Cold damage causes it to be slowed as the spell for three rounds, but alters the nature of its natural weapons until fire damage is applied. While chilled, large bonus to natural armor, but loses immunity to bludgeoning and piercing damage.

Cyrano
2007-07-28, 10:54 PM
While chilled, it should be easier to damage bludgeoning-wise. Hell, the toffee I got (basically caramel) came with it's own hammer.
Instead of "until fire damage is applied" it could be some arbitrary thing like one minute per point of cold damage, or one round if out in hot sun. Plus, you could have a "melty" version that basically invelops and suffocates the poors fiends who cross it.

PS, I just read your sig. When did I say that?

The Great Skenardo

Also: fast healing while in melty-stage? but also reduced movement rate.

If you want to play it safe, ask her if she'd like to get some coffee. You can express an interest and if she is not interested, easily fall back to the friendship aspect.

Serpentine
2007-07-29, 07:24 AM
Do not say "will you go out with me?" Please. Invite her somewhere... hmmm, not knowing what's around makes it hard. Well, how much do you know about her, anyway? How well do you know her? Are you strangers, aquaintances, friends? That could change things a little...

edit: If she's interested but you're not... then you probably don't want to really be asking her out per se. That's more of a "would you like to have lunch with me at this cafe I know, so I can get to know you?" thing. Try not to let it be a pity date or anything like that, and try to give her a real chance.

Yeah, I often feel compelled to ask strangers out. The way they looked at you just make you wish to commit to a relationship.

It's not communism that is the problem, it's more the state between communism and the previous society, most of the time called socialism, that is the problem.

Coronal mustard in the dinning room? First, what the hell is dinning and why do we need a room for it? Second, is the Colonal shocked at this atrocious new military ranks, the "Coronal"?

Coronal - Elven highborn in the FR setting. Presumably a horribly kludgy derivation from "corona".

Coupons may not be illegal, but that's what makes the other system so much more fun.

Also, taking out the schools will be difficult. Heightened terrorist awareness and such. I'll do my best though, and if I get caught I'll try not to rat you out. Which, since I don't actually know your names, will probably be pretty easy.

About the sandwich size, the bigger the better I say. Just smash the sandwich down until it fits in your mouth. If some of it falls out, well some sacrifices have to be made.

I guess it's better if you can type properly, and do it very fast. The problem is always geting used to something that's so different. We all know how to type even if we can't do it the correct way (using all fingers on both hands), because of the time we've been using the same keyboard layout. So it probably took years to get used to where everything is in QWERTY.

Still, you're a brave man and this world needs more innovators like you :) I applaud you.

Even if what you consider warm is 21'C. That is; hat for the UK is 25-28'C. Anything over is freakish. 21'C is average.

Another thing: people have seen a Great White off St. Ives. As someone who lives very near I know it was a Basking Shark.

Well of course we're egotistical. When you're as perfect as we are, it's hard not to be. Also, I don't believe I know what commercials you're talking about. Of course I don't remember the last time I watched TV, so that might have something to do with it.

Yeah I also never like InuYasha. Too much angst I guess, I never like the characters. Same with Naruto I need people I like to get into it.

Thats why I like Ranma. The entire cast is awesome. Both badguys and good guys. Excellent supporting cast. And fun hijinks. Ples they make fun of themselves Martial Arts Tea Ceremony. Its just a ridiculous comedy with martial arts thrown in.

Oh, I liked Inu-Yasha. It was one of my favourites. Untill the last episode killed it.

Ramna's okay, but I just can't get past the whole "turns into girl/panda/pig after getting wet" thing just never worked for me. Plus, like you said, I don't like the characters very much.

I'm just going to interject here to ask: Don't you describe anyone who isn't completely hideous as "sexy"? You use that term too much.

No. Their's a diffrence betwixt "awesome" "cute" and "sexy". It's just poorly defined.

No, that probably isn't a good idea. The last time you came everyone got into an argument on AMEN's evil-ness.

Hey! Why me? I haven't done a random act of extreme violence in a while now!

Cyrano
2007-07-30, 06:05 PM
Just to clarify, Saurous, how long is "a while now"? 5, 6 minutes?\

And, yes, I'm asking Saurous. Because while both of you are untrustworthy evil dastards, Saurous doesn't care enough to lie to me.

Saurous
2007-07-30, 06:07 PM
Hey! Why me? I haven't done a random act of extreme violence in a while now!

It's your fault because I need an AMENite to blame it on, and you're the one that is actually in this conversation, so one thing just leads to another.

Nothing is ever my fault. No matter what you say.


Just to clarify, Saurous, how long is "a while now"? 5, 6 minutes?

"A while now" usually means "an hour or so".

Cyrano

Vespe Ratavo

Hey! I actually looked it up. The last time I did a random act of extreme violence was last night at 9:37. And that was only implied.


Vespe shuffles his feet a bit, then wanders off to do something silly and needlessly violent.

See? Implied.

Cyrano
2007-07-30, 06:11 PM
In the same way that saying "Kids love our cigarettes!" Is implying that you are advertising to kids.

Vespe Ratavo

Well, still. Besides that (if you count it) I haven't actually done anything stupid and needlessly violent for the whole thirteenth AMEN thread.

Yeah, yeah, Ratavo. No one really cares anymore. Well, I don't care anymore, anyways.

Random violence is not the answer.

Calculated violence that looks random is much more effective.

Only if you're looking for effect, over the more common end, therapy.

I don't need therapy! The few "random-looking" acts of violence hold me over for years!

Cyrano

Violence IS the therapy.
And a random butchering is far more releasing than carefully planned serial murder.

Logic
2007-07-30, 06:27 PM
I must not need therapy as much as you then. But, I do prefer a "hands on" approach to almost everything, which with random butchering is not quite as easy to accomplish.

I don't have to apply for AMEN membership now, do I?

Vespe Ratavo
2007-07-30, 06:27 PM
The question is, which is more fun? Comic book violence, which is both over the top and silly, but no blood, or Grindhouse-esque violence, which is over the top, silly, and gory?

Cyrano
