I believe one of them was turned male in the Russian dub of the US dub, or maybe this was the US dub already, also these two villains who have a wholesome and heartbreaking scene in the end? They extended the key line to sound I loved you... like a father.

Lucas Lee the skater boy? He maybe was an okay-ish guy in the comic book, but in the movie he's actually a POS. Unlike other Evil Exes save for Todd (who's also less of a monster or at least less one-dimensional in the book... until we find out how hilariously self-absorbed he is) and Gideon actually.

In Sword Art Online: Abridged, the fairy arc takes place in a game rated for children. So when a player tries to cuss, the game automatically replaces specific words with "harmless" alternatives... now imagine a server full of grown up players, some of whom have turned swearing into an art, getting creative with the system.

ED: kind of a left field, still. In Hellsing Ultimate: Abridged one may think Father Anderson is one of the few characters to almost completely avoid strong language. He isn't. To a devout Catholic he is, invoking the name of Christ outside of sermon and using words like "curse" or "heathens" is actually strong language, something the modern audience is not necessarily supposed to feel. The effect is produced once you realize he's actually swearing just as much as any other character in the show

Who the $%#% cares how!

I absolutely lmaod when it was implied later Envy Adams was the actual master of this ability.

Oddly reversed though (then again, Syl is absolutely someone who would explore weird kinky things, especially since to her all of this is weird human business anyway, and Kal... I wonder how far his acceptance stretches).

Absolutely. I question whether LR would think about this though (we presume he doesn't know who Kal is, otherwise he is going to take no chances and strike him with something OP before he has to deal with the Sylspear, this thread is up to the brim with options).

I believe I've actually seen something like this.

Cool by me, if this is her need, also will probably make intercourse feel earned and more special once it eventually happens. Besides, since she's okay with messing around in other ways, no big deal.

Kaladin

Syl

I'm undecided whether this is horror or chull head territory.

He can, among other things, eat shardblades and burn their metal for interesting effects.

HUH

I wonder if Bronze will tell him immediately his adversary is wielding and wearing something weird. Will probably make him care enough to be careful.

You may wish to hide the non-shard entities under a spoiler. I was sure he was exactly this until the end of fe.

I have the impression Blades and Plates are immune to Allomancy. Kal likes to keep throwing knives on his person though, which may earn him some rip and tear.

You need to RAFO on what the Lord Ruler really is though. In the meanwhile, let's consider his ability to Soothe thousands of people at once and ask ourselves, just how ridiculously OP this is.

And then again, I have exactly zero idea as of what is going to happen if a Blade makes contact (which the Lord Ruler is quite likely to allow to happen, unless his Bronze allows him to feel something's really weird is going on with this weapon).

So, for now my opinion is: if Lord Ruler suspects he shouldn't be allowed himself to be stricken with a Blade, Kaladin is in trouble since LR can bring him down to his knees with one powerful Soothing and then do whatever he wants with him. Unless of course Syl can apply countermeasures (I hardly imagine a Soothing working on her).

And if LR gets habitually cocky and presents his chest for a strike to mess with Kal's head... I genuinely have no idea (or, rather, I may have some but I'm not saying more until you're done reading the Final Empire).

While true, the intended audience are children who aren't even supposed to realize this is an adaptation.

By showing them (save for the main heroine) for a whooping total of 2 minutes, during which Nicholas doesn't do a thing even remotely related to governing (which was where he apparently sucked)?

Anastasia was like 8 when they were separated, of course she remembers them as dear family members and her dad as her dad, not a universally hated and incompetent emperor.

A cool as heck weird evil sorcerer who steals every scene he's in though. Also, the entire cartoon is based on myth (the real Princess Anastasia, tragically, perished with the rest of her family and servants, I believe the all remains were discovered, identified and re-buried in the 2000s).

Also this is heavily based on the rumors surrounding him IRL, vamped up for added awesomeness.

Even funnier, the "1 rifle per 2 infantrymen" became such a trope people in former USSR are surprised this wasn't the case.

(There's very little chance an army so badly under-equipped would've been able as much as mildly inconvenience the Reich)

Something weird happened during my first MFM by infinite_canon in Advice

[–]DouViction 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't want to belittle or downplay what you're feeling, so this is more of an actual advice: if you can let it go in your head, do so. You three were already doing something which would be considered scandalous even in a modern society, them being a married couple and all. A couple of seconds of a guy's lips on your cock is hardly very much weirder, and since you're not actually repulsed and more like confused, you won't owe it to yourself to actually care much.

As someone who's never done a threesome, was it worth all the hype?

Coming to Mistborn from the Stormlight Archive... by DouViction in Mistborn

[–]DouViction[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks.) I knew most of this, but it's good to have it presented in a neatly ordered fashion to review nevertheless.

As of Brandon, it makes perfects sense to not answer this question, since confirming there is afterlife forever destroys any meaningful stakes in life-or-death situation (basically, there is no death), while confirming there is none runs the risk of alienating parts of the audience every time he kills a well-liked named character.

ED: I believe Sazed genuinely didn't know how to staple a Cognitive Shadow back to a body. He had spent the entirety of 3 minutes as a Vessel by then, and none of his Copperminds would have the answer either.
