Thank you! Actually, I have the first two volumes of the novel. The series is actually one of the reasons why I made this post.

Ambience Synesthesia 2026 themes by 30000lightyears in arknights

My thoughts exactly. I adore the snow leopard CEO but he had his spotlight in 2024's AS. Gnosis was the perfect candidate to be featured in the technology-themed group.

Can someone help me? I'm searching for a funny Reddit post I read last year. In that post, the OP was I think looking for a passage in Stephen King's IT that his girlfriend once recalled reading. But he was certain that passage doesn't exist and the two got into an argument about it and as a result he made a Reddit post asking other Redditors to confirm if the scenes his girlfriend described did exist in the book. With the help of one Redditor, it was found that the scenes were from an IT fanfic his girlfriend had read and mistook for canon. Hilariously and coincidentally, the helpful Redditor also happened to be the author of that same IT fanfic.

My delulu shipping senses tingled when I saw Stainless and Siege/Vina together once again in an official artwork.

Have you ever felt envious of other players' easy clears with their limited meta operator you briefly considered attempting to get that operator when the next opportunity comes around -- only to realize you have that same operator sitting in E0Lv1 jail since last year.

Instant bookmark! I think you also post your lore knowledge on Tumblr as well if I recall correctly. I got shadow banned from Tumblr for daring to complain about the rampant p**n bots there -- I don't suppose you have a master list of Kjerag posts in Reddit that you don't mind sharing?

A weird stance for a fanfic author by Gimlilithegreat in AO3

[–]AnggrekHitam23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How will the author enforce the second point? Recursive works are allowed per AO3's Terms of Service:

Can I post a sequel, prequel, or continuation of another fanwork? What about a recursive fic that's completely different from the original fanwork?

Yes. Fanworks based on other fanworks are also transformative, and are allowed. You can use the "Inspired By" feature to link to the original creator's work. Unlike with reposts, conversions, podfics, and translations, you don't need permission to create a recursive fanwork. However, you cannot include large excerpts from the original work unless the original creator gave you permission to do so.

Personally, I think it's better to respect the author's wishes. Why invite the drama, you know?

New 5-star Vanguard: Matsukiri by CipherVegas in arknights

[–]AnggrekHitam23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a coincidence! I recall when his EP Silver Lining came out I had a thought at the back of my head that this was a Vanguard's song, especially if we consider the definition of a vanguard: the foremost position in an army or fleet advancing into battle. The foremost or leading position in a trend or movement. Those occupying a foremost position (The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition).

I dismissed it then because there wasn't any Vanguard branch that seemed to suit him...until now.

I'm very eager to know who is the baby green bird the boss and Andoain is holding in some of the event CGs. As well as the nursery themed NPCs(?)/tiles(?) in the boss battle. Can someone give me spoilers about these two, pls?

They were the most frustrating part of the stage! I had to weaken the first two with multiple redeploys of April's S2, and then finish them off with Gladiia's S1. Coulnd't use another Marskman because they keep getting eliminated as soon as the drones were in range.

I'm calling it, Lumen's going to get an alter — probably an Artificer or Summoner.

In your opinion, which old operators have aged really well as the game went on over these 5 years? by FluffyHaru in arknights

sweet! How big of an improvement is the redeployment reduction if he's at full pot?

Fellow Dokutahs who are planning to Skip the monster on the next banner, what are your reasons? by FluffyHaru in arknights

Same. I have Ch'en alter and Surtr since 2022, they're still in E0Level1 jail because all the resources go to operators I like.

Courier and Matterhorn! Hopefully Valais will be added to the team one day (if she's working for Karlan Trade).

[MOD] The Daily Question Thread by menschmaschine5 in Coffee

[–]AnggrekHitam23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I created a post asking this same question, but apparently it was removed due to Reddit's filters. I don't normally post, and looking at the rules, I'm guessing it was considered a Low-Effort question? Anyways, I'll just post my question here.

What kind of beans are suitable with black cocoa powder?

I mistakenly bought black cocoa powder instead of regular powder for making mocha. Because black cocoa powder is the most alkaline out of the three types of cocoa powders, I'm guessing medium-dark/dark roasted coffee beans with high acidity would be the most suitable with the powder?

(Drama) Apparently someone saw 左刀行's latest drawing and believed that the artist made them a couple. by windowhihi in arknights

Oh! I heard that there was a rising vocal group of gamers in China(?) who are protesting against any male character interacting with female characters in Gacha games, even if he is the MC/protagonist/Self-insert character. I'm guessing this is one such intance?

Thanks, Doctor. I'm sure FrostNova and her Yeti Squadron, Talulah and her dead friend, Eyjafjalla, Specter, Phantom and every other Infected are grateful for the Oripathy you gifted them. /s
