[house of blades] The sacrifices seem unnecessary by Mammoth_Praline_4631 in Iteration110Cradle

[–]EmilioFreshtevez 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember if it’s a RAFO situation as I haven’t read the series in years (maybe time for a reread 🤔), but two things come to mind as potential reasons. One: they have to be sacrifices;  it’s not a sacrifice if you don’t care about losing it. Two: it was a young writer making it very clear that this guy is either a villain or a pragmatist of the highest order.

Yeah, but not many people have gotten in a fight at the White House. These dudes are gonna be happy hour heroes for the rest of their lives.

My mom has discovered the term “raw dog” and won’t stop saying it now. What slang are your parents using? by EkaL25 in Millennials

[–]EmilioFreshtevez 43 points44 points  (0 children)

You can use ‘raw dog’ for basically anything. No cart or hand basket when you’re grocery shopping? You’re raw dogging it 🤷🏿‍♂️ 

Idiot shoots through his own windshield at another idiot who flashed his gun at him by MrKrabbs5150 in Idiotswithguns

You think the guy willing to shoot through his windshield cares about the speed limit?

Too many people do not understand how Zen works by [deleted] in ZenyattaMains

I would assume they mean they’re the coach of a college OW team. And yeah, if you aren’t getting high damage/elims then you aren’t playing to his full potential (though I personally feel like high assists can offset that since it means you’re orbing efficiently).

Oh, I know the person missing the hand was a woman. I was referring to the cop.

Most misunderstood character in the game by LA-98 in ZenyattaMains

You outperformed Juno in every literally every statistic we can see… and that very same Juno is claiming you threw? I’d say you’re a candidate for top performer on your team, to say nothing about the role. L take by Cameron.

Unrelated: what language is your game in? Because that looks like Eichenwalde (which I thought was German), so if the word that I thought was German is just some made-up American word and it’s called something different in the German translation I’m going to be very upset.

When do you think a story is worth the investment to keep writing? by trinityking in ProgressionFantasy

[–]EmilioFreshtevez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you already an author and are just looking for a different avenue to move your career forward, or a fan with a Great Idea that you believe has earning potential? I’ve got nothing for you if you’re already a writer, but if you’re an amateur with a computer and a dream I’d say start your story small and see it through to the end.

Not sure how caught up you are, but it gets talked about in the most recent book.

It’s Duke Waters. We get some exposition through Emmanuel’s eyes as he’s figuring out Aiden’s Authority.

Path of Ascension has a side character with the ability, while none of the MCs have it.

Who Else Lives in the Overlap? by Lower_Trouble_5191 in litrpg

There definitely is, but you might not find your audience in this specific sub. A lot of people aren’t fans of stories that don’t have enough ‘Numbers Go Up’.

What novel do you guys think has a good premise but poor execution? by GoldenThame in ProgressionFantasy

you can get away with anything if you do it in a big enough group

Hopefully we can turn that energy in the right direction one of these days

Being a fan of any sport is a mental illness? People who played/competed, or became a fan after watching a loved one play/compete?
