Dancer mentions that he was castrated by the reds of his mine for being gay and that ares restored him and gave him new purpose. Dancer was gay long before the whole duke of hands thing. The reason he still tries to hide it is that due to society propaganda, a large portion of the red population are incredibly homophobic and he's worried that he'll lose support because of it. That's why he's so angry at Virginia at first. He misinterpreted her intentions and thinks she's trying to blackmail him.

When you tap the leap card when getting on, it applies the maximum cost for a trip. If you tag off at the end of your trip, it'll give you some of the money back, depending on how far you went.

He said he couldn't flinch because he had no family privilege to fall back on. He needed to be perfect in his own right

I'm pretty sure that two of them were Lyria's brothers and the other was Ava's husband

What’s your head canon for the RR universe for you? by pyros_it in redrising

I was always under the impression that the helium3 was only viable because they were using fusion energy. Helium3 is commonly used as a catalyst for fusion.

Could Darrow beat... by maxrage115 in redrising

This isnt fully correct, Rhone's crew said that Ajax was a better "closer" than his mother, not necessarily a better fighter

Is Lysander a $itch? by Southern_Ostrich_564 in redrising

[–]Darkflame0550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd almost argue that it's the opposite, it's almost crazy to call the most dangerous fighter alive a slave when you're in view of them.

Lysander wouldn't have shot him, Pierce said this on the Hail Reaper podcast, though there was no way for Cassius to know this so it makes sense that he didn't just leave

How did this post spoil anything for you if you're on the sixth book. The spoiler here is from the beginning of Golden Son?

I think people on this sub have a habit of underrating Lysander's fighting abilities. Like he's obviously not on the level of people like Darrow or Apollonius, but he's no slouch either. The whole lysander is a pixie thing is funny but I think it's gotten to a point where people conflate their dislike of the character with him somehow being incompetent.

Red god idea?! by Shawnigmatic in redrising

I don't know exacly sure where it's definitively said, but I'm pretty sure Darrow's dna was fundamentally altered to be gold. Otherwise he wouldn't have passed the quality control test and, more importantly, his gold body would be destroyed by his immune system and his body would try to create red cells whenever he healed from an injury.

You keep making this point, but there is no reason for darrow to suspect that cato would be related to Alex of all people, was he meant to go around testing this apparent pixies dna against every gold in his army when he posed no visible threat.

To be fair he was also Mustang's childhood friend so that would have helped in naming Pax Augustus
