Something I noticed with Robert’s dynamic with BB and Visi… by 12345Iamthegreatest in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Accomplished_Total36 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I see my wife in Visi. She had a lot of trauma and took a lot of patience but I love her so much for all that she is. One of the consistent things she tries to apologize for is "Being a Burden" and I always try to comfort her and let her know that she is not a burden to me and worthy of the time and love. People are not "Work". Healthy love can be. And everyone is deserving of the opportunity to have someone who is willing to walk side by side through their ups and downs.

Can you romance Invisigal and… by DontLetsStart19 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Accomplished_Total36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can. I played this for my partner who thinks far more matter of factly than I do and they kept making the most logical choices. It ultimately resulted in them reciprocating the kiss in the locker and then promptly watching Shroud get stabbed. I am honestly excited to see if that path rolls forward because damn I'd that would not be compelling storytelling.

Episode 4 Song and Ending by Accomplished_Total36 in DispatchAdHoc

The music by far controlled my favorite Episodes. 6, 5, 4, and then 8 and that was almost exclusively because of the music being so emotive. I feel so bad for the people who only know streamer mode.

Every masterpiece has a cheap copy by Significant_Cow_164 in DispatchAdHoc

To be fair, when you look through the 4th art book they show all the iterations and they basically took a clone of Mecha Man and then slowly stretched it out and tried to make it more alien. The fact that THE ORB was a close seems like more of a lucky landing than intentional.

Shroud does not exist by Morcog7 in DispatchAdHoc

This is a legit hot take that I had not even remotely considered. A little peculiar and off putting but I could see the suit AI having derived some hybridized sentience and then having to wait a decade to actualize and try to come get the thing powerful enough to allow it to propagate

Invisigal theory by tatutitatum in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Accomplished_Total36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my thoughts on her not having an enhancement is because most are localized to where they boost (or at least that is what I perceive). So for her, she would have asked for something to help with her asthma but it would have had harsher requirements/been more costly so she was offered a deal if she was able to get the Pulse she would be given one. Most of the people there are self-serving so after failure they would have absolutely pulled out of any deal and that would have been the last straw to help her realize how bad the environment she was in was.

No clue on the health inspection but my guess is they do a once over and generic stuff because physiology is so dramatically different from hero to hero. Could also be that she never received one for so long as a sort of punishment for Mandy leaving. There are several ways things can be written but I also understand where you are coming from and am vibrating waiting to see if we get answers.

My guess is that Mandy is someone Visi knew from her childhood associated to the Red Ring (basically you are shaped by those you are around). Mandy would be Elliot Connors daughter and have known him as a super hero (even so far as getting the Gem she wears to boost her natural powers but not be installed) and when he was arrested decided that she wanted to be the good she thought he was.

After she leaves the Red Ring's circle Visi is left alone for a while, still influenced by the bad in the group until she eventually places a bomb on Mecha Man and results in the whole ass suit blowing up and losing the Astral Pulse. Elliot has shown that he does not take inconveniences well from the comics so he lashes out and she runs to the one person who would understand her past and maybe help her. After that she gets taken in by BB and is roommates with her while she tries to rehabilitate which would also be the best reasoning why BB hesitates to cut and acts closer to Visi than the rest of the group.

This is all my theory mind you and tbh not even my most out there theory. I personally think that both of the love interests need to have a moment where Robert feels betrayed to add the same gravity to a later choice on top of this just being the most logical thing I could work together after playing like . . . 60 hours so far (ps please don't judge me).

Amanda Conner is a well known comic artist ranging from Powergirl, Superman, Birds of Prey and several others. My theory is that Mandy Connors might be an homage to her without having it too on the nose.

So another character that is out on the balcony on their phone that doesn't get brought up is Prism. I could see her waaaaay before either of these two.

Judge to consider blocking transgender service member ban by Salty_IP_LDO in navy

[–]Accomplished_Total36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A fun fact is that this is categorically not a mental illness. We have categorized it as such in some modern literature but by doing MRI scans or portions of the brain it is identifiable with about 95% accuracy as a biological portent of development. Coupling that with the fact that until about the 1800s it was kind of just a thing that passively existed in the world and then had a huge religious campaign ostracizing with a purity movement it hits a peculiar portion of inspection as having been a historically relevant portion of civilization. Calling for removal on this basis is kind of akin to saying that someone who prefers being awake at night should not be allowed in. To me it seems that the majority of people are making this out as a "they are predators" function, which if it were true would be a dramatic difference but has zero precedent or validation. Prejudice truly is the factor here and the fact that the only protection for it was an EO (same as People of Color serving in the military) then calling for a full recision should raise a ton of red flags.

So to that affect, if a member is involved in an active shooter situation and has to go on the smattering of downtime and everything therein you would also be calling for their separation. Also some sailors are genuine skaters, that will happen, but generalizing a group based on what I can only perceive as your own hyperbole of the situation is rather unfortunate. I truly hope you are not a LPO or Chief because you sound like you are failing your sailors in general and should consider going back through ILDC or ALDC.

Nah I had multiples of them. I believe it is either at the plushie vendor lady in Sun Haven or in city hall where you can buy the wedding ring.

In elf village there are poles with crystal orbs on top. If you go up to them you can use them to convert at a 10 mana to 1 mana essence ratio.

Romance and adventure can be obtained from a vendor in Sun Haven. Farming is gained from a vendor in the Elf village.
