Blizzard reps wanted to call patch 7.3 'Illidan Fucks Up More Shit Backwards' but it wasn't as catchy, so they went with 'Shadows of Argus' instead, so as to not be too on the nose with what was going on. |

WELL THAT HAPPENED Apparently a shed only a few streets over caught fire. And then there was a propane tank inside... Firetrucks were on the scene relatively quickly, but holy fuck that was a lot of smoke |

Random aside, as I have some thoughts on Fire Emblem Warriors. I love the companion AI, and I also hate the companion AI. You can rely on them pretty well to take care of and capture points on the map and not be killed in the process But apparently their orders get wiped when you take control of them and then switch away. Meaning when you are fighting the giant fuckoff dragon and need everyone present, they will wander off away from the giant fuckoff dragon and go 'i need to cap this fort' YOU DON'T NEED TO CAP THE POINT. KILL THE GIANT FUCKOFF DRAGON. THE FORT IS GUARDED. THE DRAGON IS NOT |

Another random aside I've been, bit by bit, fooling around with the site Duolingo off and on for a little bit. Specifically because their (beta) launch for learning Japanese was released. I've been interested in it, and have been progressing bit by bit through it. Mostly, currently, I've been just doingt he starting Hiragana, to learn the characters, and what sound they represent (To, Shi, Chi, Mu, etc) After a bit, and reading some of the little notes one section provided (the lesson was on modifiers) I decided to try my brain logic, and figure out how to write 'Yatta' (a common japanese victory shout) With only doublechecking (As I do not have them memorized) the appearance of 'Ya' and 'Ta' and reading a bit of that lesson, I scribbled out this before going to correct myself with google. Google Validated me me am learning ... Yatta!~ |

It probably says something weird about me that, when running a 1:1 CoD scenario, when my brain is constantly asked 'Should I reel this character back a bit?' my response is 'Nah, ramp up her intensity, go full Heath Ledger' |

Only a little bit. Original idea was 'Well, Veronica (The would-be Heath Ledger) here is going to grab up four girls, conduct an interview, and see which one is more suited for being Kindred. Then realized 'That's not super interesting... what should we do instead... well, I did establish a duffel bag' So, intensity ramp 1: Upgrade the Mesperized condition to Dominated on each girl, give them all a metal implement and tell them 'One swing, cause damage' Zoe (Our PC) decides when her turn comes up to take her free swing at Veronica. Good. Excellent. Intensity ramp 2: Rather than wipe their memories, she decides that two of the girls are going to be her dinner, in plain view. Zoe fails her integrity check, takes the Madness condition, and, amidst a giggling fit, starts filming the scene with her phone, watching with the mentality one watches train wrecks. Intensity ramp 3, and you guys get a writing sample (Bolded statements are 'She backed these with the dominate condition'): There's a long pause, as [Veronica] finishes... well, her second drink. She catches your mad giggling, and stares directly into the camera of your phone. "You think this is funny? You think this is a fucking game? You think that this is all just some sick fucking joke being played on you?!" she says, and in a moment, she's in front of you, hand slammed into the wall next to you... did that tile crack? She takes a long breath, gently taking your phone-holding hand, adjusting it gingerly, and staring into it. "Cause it's about to get a whole lot fucking funnier!" she exclaims, and steps back, the moment of... panic of her gap closure passing. "Keep recording." she says calmly, rolling her neck around a moment, and fishing in her duffle bag one last time, before pulling out a knife. A plain old kitchen knife. "Keep the camera on me." she adds, before starting to... rather viscerally, start making some rather quick stabs with the knife into the other two women, an almost practiced hand causing splatters in just the right way to avoid getting directly sprayed, while also distorting and destroying the... rather unique signature of leaving behind some bite marks. She nodded at her handiwork, before approaching the third girl, who, by this point, was still scared, and trembling... not even sure anymore of what was going on. She could hear words, she heard something about a camera... But knew nothing else. Snake pressed the handle of the knife into her hand, adjusting her grip, until there was a firm grasp on it. "Alright, mirror girl, you lost. So, Two things. One: You killed those girls. Second: We were never here." she comments, walking back towards you, gathering up her various other implements from around the room, shoving them into her dufflebag. She smiled. "You can put the camera away now, that's enough video fun times for now... Let's get going cutie." |

More WoD stuff, so feel free to tune me out Writing a Shadowplay scenario (the stages someone faces before they Awaken and become a mage) and realize 'I need a theme' The character's an EMT, and they're going to awaken as a Moros mage (Basically, Death/Matter). Shadowplay is not always immediately apparent, and some people may not even realize that all of these signs around them are happening. Vicki (A mage I ran very briefly) had, because of her Acanthus awakening, a Shadowplay full of Tarot symbols appearing everywhere around her - Neighbour with a pocketknife and pepperspray can on her keychain (Two of Swords) a club called Seven Pieces (7 of Coins) a dean with a fancy walking stick (Knight of STaves) etc. So, our Shadowplay for this character as an EMT is four specific cases of people dying, and a weird dream: Case 1: A woman is being accused of the murder of two women in a bar, despite her claims that she didn't do it, despite having the knife in her hands. Case 2: A Breaking and entering gone horribly wrong, with the homeowner being brutally murdered, the entire house ransacked, and looking like a tornado went through there Case 3: Someone OD'd, plain and simple Case 4: Someone is found in their own living room, gun in hand, and the obvious signs of a suicide And then, in his dreams, he's joining a procession of ghosts, all of which are marching towards the gates of the underworld. So, when presented at face value: Case 1: 'I didn't kill those women' - Denial Case 2: Rampage through a home, brutal murder - Anger Case 3: Body can take one more hit, right? - Bargaining Case 4: ... Suicide - Depression CAse 5: Ghosts moving on with their life - Acceptance BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE Case 1, the woman was framed, because... well, the two women were killed by a vampire, and had her framed. (Wait, that sounds familiar...) Case 2: The man being accused of murder is an excorcist, and he was taking care of a poltergeist Case 3: The man who OD'd was being fed upon by an Addiction spirit, who just pushed him to go one step further Case 4: Looks like a suicide, one set of fingerprints... Changeling killing their Fetch. Dream: A Guilt spirit is feeding on these ghosts, forcing them to go through. In other words, at face value, these look like the five stages of grief, but only to people that can't see the Truth. And to add to it, some names: The woman who was framed for the murders I'm making her name Danielle. Poltergeist ghost victim is named Rachel (Rache is the german word for revenge) OD guy is named Chip Depression victim is named Morty Danielle - close to Denial Revenge -> Anger (Barganing/Poker) Chip Mort(ification) is a synonym for depresison You may commence your revelling in my brilliance |

I don't know if it'sa good thing or a bad thing that in the now-started Mage thing, my brain is constantly doublechecking and asking 'Alright,w hat happened aroudn this time... would David run into Zoe or Rosalia? No? Alright, proceed' Doesn't help that he;s zeroing in on the Tonic East murders, and is trying to find 'the mystery ladies' that Danielle is claiming not to have seen. DO YOU WANT HUNTERS. CAUSE THIS IS HOW WE GET HUNTERS |
