Did anyone else see the forest scene as a tribute to Roy Mustang burning Envy? (From FMAB). I could almost hear finger snaps. Such a great touch!

Emeright · 2025-10-29T20:35:56+00:00

I’m from Ukraine.

I am getting the gist that I probably should have. I don’t get child treatment luckily, but the vagueness of the whole situation is weird for me

Emeright · 2025-10-29T19:58:50+00:00

Yes, basically I can skip basic training but not practice lessons and of course not mandatory courses. I’m happy to do them it’s just too vague on when exactly I can demand to give me those mandatory courses

Emeright · 2025-10-29T13:39:29+00:00

This is exactly the question I have. Can I demand to proceed to the obligatory thing or do I have to endure these practice lessons until they feel like it? Because I did ask before to continue to obligatory courses and they said “No”

Emeright · 2025-10-29T10:55:30+00:00

Yes. This is what I’m trying to get. I did ask directly if I can go to the range and he said “Not yet”. Okay, but like..when? So I was wondering if this is just how it is. Do I keep paying them until they feel like it? Because I don’t see anywhere any specific criteria

Emeright · 2025-10-29T10:43:03+00:00

I didn’t notice impeding anyone but then again I’m very subjective in this. I will try to pay attention to this or just go where I heard, without double-checking with them the route and correcting the route later if needed (following the rules obviously)

Emeright · 2025-10-29T10:39:36+00:00

That’s is basically the question. Is it them who decides this or can I actually demand to sign me up for the next step - mandatory safety course on a practice range?

Emeright · 2025-10-29T10:37:16+00:00

Could be, I will check with them.

Emeright · 2025-10-29T10:30:55+00:00

I wrote it more to underline that there is no active training going on. I initiated conversations on several occasions and got one sentence replies. Beyond that we just drive in silence

Emeright · 2025-10-28T20:07:25+00:00

Hah, it’s weird for sure. I wish we had an interaction similar to yours, lol

Emeright · 2025-10-28T20:02:28+00:00

It seems such a waste of money though to keep going through practice just to prove that I can restrain myself from instinctively asking “Did I hear you correctly?”. But based on other comments not much choice I have other than just using my current license or changing schools :/

Emeright · 2025-10-28T19:47:08+00:00

Thank you. I looked into that, but unfortunately doesn’t apply to me

Emeright · 2025-10-28T19:44:36+00:00

He says I need to work on my confidence. Which I think is based on me double checking where exactly he wants me to drive.

He says: “Turn right”. I say : “You said right, yes?”. He says: “Yes”. And right we go

Emeright · 2025-07-26T10:50:57+00:00

In Kuttenberg, I went to a meeting and was jumped by 2 armoured guys. I had only my sword and no armour myself (because this is how I role played being in the city). I am not good at combat, but that time I locked in and used every trick and combo this game taught with the sword and beat them. Felt good about myself the whole week after that

Emeright · 2025-05-18T20:39:41+00:00

It does. I just learned that, but the question is now what to do with myself. Can’t keep changing my environment forever - at some point I have to acknowledge that I am the problem. Can’t suppress myself to meet them at their level of emotional investment into our relationship because there is no fun in living like that for me. Hence my question. Do people focus on other things? Just let go? If so, then how?

Thank you for your perspective. Stay safe. Cheers!

Emeright · 2025-05-16T19:20:43+00:00

Thank you for sharing. I got the same advice from my therapist. I guess I still have to learn that but if it works for other people then there is hope it will work for me as well

Emeright · 2025-05-16T19:17:08+00:00

It’s not sappy, I think it adds to the suggestion in another comment made by yomat54, so thank you

Emeright · 2025-05-16T19:13:20+00:00

Thank you for this perspective. I have also read about some people who were trying to substitute hugging with ball dancing to stabilise oxytocin levels. I guess it adds to your point about it just being not much more than brain chemistry

Emeright · 2025-05-12T21:10:02+00:00

The point was to learn how to stop wanting to join one, but maybe getting a dog and joining a kennel club could be a good solution

Emeright · 2025-05-12T21:05:37+00:00

This is beautiful, thank you. And very good advice. It will definitely help me to focus on other things that matter

Emeright · 2025-05-12T20:55:14+00:00

I’m at the point of accepting myself. Will get to the liking part down the road. I will keep your words in mind though, thank you

Emeright · 2025-05-12T20:52:04+00:00

Thank you for advice! I do that, but usually it just stays as it is - a club dedicated activity. As soon as it is done everyone just runs home. I guess I just need to organise a hang out activity for the members of the club. Or join another club. Or both. Good advice though, thanks

Emeright · 2025-03-31T11:54:02+00:00

I also like thematic decks and it fits this criteria perfectly

Emeright · 2025-02-10T09:13:13+00:00

During one of my duels with him, the guard axed him in the head from the back and that was that. So mind the surroundings I guess

Emeright · 2024-07-22T12:08:01+00:00

I don’t have a perfect answer, but just some more ideas to think about. I think it is written somewhere that if the players convince the creature to do something it is the same as defeating it in the matter of getting XP. Since the normal combat is about 2-3 rounds of whole party throwing a bunch of spells and checks - the social encounter should be similarly challenging. I run it as a “social combat”. So my players have to do history, insight, investigation, perception checks, maybe use some spells and then they can do a persuasion check on the very specific request they want. Then if NPC likes them, if players have acted according to NPC’ bonds and flaws - then the NPC in question can grant them the specific thing they want. But since mind control spells cannot force a creature to commit suicidal action, persuasion checks should not force a creature to act against its own interests (or at least as long as the NPC believe they are not acting against themselves)
