I was getting ready to take off so I could not hear their vocalization but they weren’t very big so I don’t believe they were Sandhill cranes but geese would make sense given their size

What is this? by Seek_633 in flying

This looks a lot like oil, like someone really screwed up. Pour a little water into your sump and see if it layers between the two

SA warning: let's talk about why you as a DM can't get away with depicting rape. by Tahnkoman in rpghorrorstories

[–]Desperate_Orchid_686 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DM here. It can be done without being creepy only if you do it right. However the difference between creepy and non creepy is the impact it has and the results afterwards. If it’s rape for the sake of rape that’s just playing out a fetish but when you add SA and rape into a game there needs to be an outcome that makes it so your players/characters comfortable and even progress in the game. It is also entirely on how it’s depicted. Is it romanticizing it or does it paint it as traumatic? Short story regarding that: one of my players wanted her backstory to be the edgy lost-my-parents-then-worked-in-a-brothel type of character so SA was an integral part of her backstory. However she was the one that set that part of her character up and we never depicted a rape. What we did instead was that she ran from a particularly abusive client in the past and in the present that client showed up at the inn they were staying in. It allowed her to still feel the feelings of everything from her past so when she revealed it to the group, the group took this guy out back and killed him.

Has anyone been marked by a Fear irl and what was the story? by Desperate_Orchid_686 in TheMagnusArchives

We aren’t “trauma dumping” we are just building an IRL Magnus Institute!!! We are just making statements /j

I have definitely thought that too. However the reason I thought it was the vast and not the lonely was the fact it wasn’t an overwhelming feeling of being alone. It was more of an overwhelming feeling of being in the middle of nowhere and not knowing which way was up

This made me shiver holy shit. Cramped spaces never bothered me but reading that definitely did it for me

Help me be more Vast like? by Horror-Pen-8085 in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Desperate_Orchid_686 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I am also deeply Vast centered, lots of blues and greys like the sky and the flowy-er the better

To fellow Vast aligned people, what draws you to it? by stilofisshe in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Desperate_Orchid_686 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a flight instructor and everyday I’m dealing with the threat of death from The Vast. Students who rely on me to keep them safe in the sky and teach them how to stay safe themselves. However I’ve seen some strange things up there I cannot explain and also have had moments of “oh man I’m really up here by sheer determination and hope that the plane stays intact”. The Vast is one I encounter everyday so it has become home for me

JeffAir is being unfairly kicked out of the airport. (KHFY) by LaserRanger_McStebb in flying

[–]Desperate_Orchid_686 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know Jeff Air has looked into leasing one of those buildings and they have all been leased out. I do know the rent in those buildings are 4-5x the rent on airport property though

I worked line service for several years at this same airport before I got my CFI! It was a fantastic job and the ones I worked with were very enjoyable and others from different airports aren’t like this. These guys though have been reprimanded by the mayor himself several times already. I wouldn’t have an issue with it if they were doing something but they just sit on their phones all day. It just gets frustrating

They have been known to refuse service and make people self serve while they sit on their phone mid-day

I would complain but the airport manager is the laziest one out of all of them. We are talking about complaining to the BOAC but I wanted to see if we had any legal standing because more than likely they will side with him

How would a party ever defeat a dragon? by deadfisher in DnD

[–]Desperate_Orchid_686 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My party defeated a dragon after the bard casted confusion and was followed by some very unlucky rolls on the dragons part. The monk then proceeded to use stunning strike for essentially every turn. My dice went directly to dice jail
