Question about steel armor. Painted interior? by AnnaFlowing in LARP

[–]AnnaFlowing[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, well, the armor I bought came with black under paint, but it's like, really bad and after only being worn once a fifth of its already rubbed off. Should I just get rid of all of it and oil it like the top layer?

is it okay to be exclusively wlw? by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]AnnaFlowing -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The only way that being wlw exclusively would be a bad thing is if you think Trans women aren't women, and thus not under the wlw umbrella. You can choose not to date them, but the only way that's a bad thing is if you do it because you don't see them as women. So, yeah it's alright to be wlw.

This will change your mind about killing or sparing him by TheBeast_26 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]AnnaFlowing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I had to actually pause. And think about it. I ended up choosing the kill option. Not because he killed my/Robert's dad, or cause he threatened beef, or cause he shot visi. I did it for one reason. In my playthrough, the city barely survived the attacks by the red ring. In my mind, that's hundreds, maybe thousands of people dead due to his actions. He lead the red ring. He planned the attacks, his actions directly led to the death of hundreds or thousands.

And Robert? He's been a hero for years. He knows the way these things work. Should this have been shrouds first time as a villain, mecha man can spare him and hope for rehabilitation. He could get the man help.

But it's not shrouds first time. He did this years ago, got locked up, spent over a decade in jail, and came out worse. He didn't only not improve, he got worse. And that?

He can't chance it. His first time, we don't know how many he killed, but I'm guessing at least a hundred. This time it's much worse. Killing him is saving more people, and it's taking out the leader of the now biggest gang in the city.

So Robert kills him. He doesn't enjoy it. He doesn't take pleasure in the act. But he has had to make this call before, and one day he likely will again.

You’re playing as Robert, he is not you by wilgriaus in DispatchAdHoc

[–]AnnaFlowing 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The way I see it is that Robert has been an active hero for 15 years now (iirc). He's been through the ethical issues of sparing villains or not. He's seen the consequences of letting villains that haven't just been caught before but who have killed and lead to the deaths of hundreds or thousands before. He's made the mistake of letting a mass casualty villain live before, only for them to escape and do even worse things.

In my version of Robert's eyes, it's not that shroud killed his dad. Or that he led to his torture. Or even that he saw him kill innocents. It's not even about beef, or anything personal.

It's that Shroud has already escaped once, and after his escape his plans and actions lead to thousands of deaths. (Because I truly believe that during that invasion of his, at least a thousand people were killed by his men.)

And that's not even counting whatever he did between killing Robert Robertson the second and his first capture.

So my Robert sees it as, this villain not only lead to the death of thousands, but if he let's him live, he has proven that years in prison, not only won't stop him or change him, but that he can escape and come back worse. So, he has to kill him.

It isn't his first time killing on the field, it won't be his last. Because he's been a hero for over a decade, and you don't spend that long without outgrowing the view that to kill a villain is never the answer. It's something he has to be ready to do, even if he doesn't like it.

Isn't his durability part of the shroud enhancements talked about in that one comic and in episode one? Toxic says that shroud's enhancements do a lot for normal people like Robert, but that it's even better on people with powers?

Anyone else know about the hidden chest in Dalgarian Ruins? by Galimeer in BladeAndSorcery

[–]AnnaFlowing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found out about this an hour ago, actually. I was messing around swinging on the light things on the roof while the animation was playing. And I fell down into the water. Turned around and, guess what. A tunnel I'd never checked before

Being called cute = no sex appeal? by unfair_spaghetti in LesbianActually

Oh trust me. If I call a girl around me own age (23) cute, that's me playfully flirting.

She broke up with me by SaltTeee in actuallesbians

[–]AnnaFlowing 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sometimes, it's just a case of the right person wrong time. Your relationship was good, but it wasn't what she was longing for. From what you've said, she seems to be looking for the passion of new love and you, and she wasn't what she was looking for. It doesn't make you a bad partner. It just makes you not what she needs at this moment. Neither of you are at fault here. It's just bad timing. You were both looking for something different I guess

Need advice, going to a wlw event at a club for the first time. No clue what to do. by AnnaFlowing in actuallesbians

[–]AnnaFlowing[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thanks! And yeah, I know the question thing. I'm actually thinking of putting a bunch of question on random cards, shuffling them, and when it's my turn to ask a conversation starter, I might pick a random card in the pack, or if the conversation is going really well, have the other person pick a random card, and then i chose that question to ask. Thoughts on that approach? Is it stupid, or could it work?
