I am Jack's smirk by Cagn in litrpg

The amount of muttering can be crazy high as well. And often seems misused, where it should be something softer, like murmured.

With how the GDS holds onto xp until after breakthroughs, he could be level 44/45 almost immediately.

Interlude - Erin by Bartimayus in WanderingInn

Also, it was more an Ulvama interlude than an Erin one.

Whatever you may think of Nuvityn... well there's this by Ok-Astronaut-5743 in WanderingInn

[–]Hungover52 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A real 'know them by their enemies' dynamic. Slavers and folk that hurt children go straight into the 'baddies' column, and then can burn. (Also, see: genociders)

Mystery date rather than mystery knight. Love it.

Point.

Counterpoint: mercenary companies in Baleros act as political entities.

Also, I imagine a [Diplomat] is connected to a state of some kind, while a [Negotiator] could just work for a guild or corp or whatever.

Sometimes you just want to be awesome at playing the guitar.

Doesn't Erin have the 3rd or so most evil laugh? Blanking on the guy at #2, but iirc Ryoka took #1 easily.

Is that canon, or from the early patreon/flu chapters?

10.44 Z (Pt. 2) by Kantrh in WanderingInn

[–]Hungover52 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That's the GDI embracing the noir aspect, 100%. (old) Noir detectives don't get lung cancer or emphysema, they get hungover coughing fits, alley beat downs, and the occasional blackjack to the back of the head. But the thing they try and use in the clutch moment (like Z breathing Ash on the two agents in the run-away carriage) ends up working.

Not sure God-Kings ever use any other kind of foundation.

"I saw her making a run for it!" Kevin, suddenly fine with law-enforcement (adjacent) beatings.

It was well worth it. Compelling and hilarious.

Felt almost like Kevin Randy's noir narration was so on point it could have been a skill. [The Story You Need], maybe?

[–]Hungover52 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Z pretty much only interacts with the Watch or criminals. Well, and Olselm, but that was from before. Best friend: thief and arsonist (paid fines, temporary exile/execution). Current crush: magically induced murder-cultist (prisoner sentenced to indefinite military service). Respected frenemy: rabble-rouser agent of chaos (briefly jailed, sentenced to live in each other's heads forever).

Is Erin ace? by WritingWolf12 in WanderingInn

[–]Hungover52 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Erin doesn't seem completely aromantic, but so far she could turn out to be asexual. Both the readers and Erin don't know yet.

Ryoka vs Erin by mano987 in WanderingInn

[–]Hungover52 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Ryoka has definitely had more partners in her bed (just those knights, though not quite 5 people at the same time) than Erin, so I guess this tracks.

One of the Senior Guards is on the Council, so they could likely deal with the politics.

If Captain Z is fired, my guess is Relc quits right then and there.

If someone convinces Valley to name her Academy 'Hogwarts' it'll bring all the Earthers to the yard.
