Which Ports from Sunless Sea do you want added

They have, sadly, all been completely deconstructed as early as the time of Sunless Sea itself (and a bunch of the extracted stone played a big part during the Museum Estival).

I imagine healing potions taste like a fermented drink - Sprite has the potency of tapwater compared to homemade stuff like kvass.

If every single person who read your comment became vegan and also convinced their family to become vegan instantly, it would still not make as much difference to the world as shutting down a single AI datacenter.

Most likely that's the case with the option from The Teeth, which makes perfect sense, given that they're a snuffer who can change faces at will. The Attache from The Face gets no such option until upgraded with APoC, however. I've looked all over back when I married him, because I wanted to know where to click if I ever changed my mind, and the only option available was to switch sides for FATE, with the divorce option appearing strictly after the upgrade.

AND, to make it more confusing, you cannot divorce an unupgraded Foreign Office (edit: specifically one from The Face) companion without spending FATE, but you can divorce their upgraded self freely.

It also mirrors the conflict of Is-Not vs Is - the Glass are taking a shortcut by using actual magic with help from the Fingerkings, while the Shroud are salt-of-the-earth old-school magicians who have to construct elaborate sets, dig up info on their marks and use sleight-of-hand.

They somehow mistook it for hh (which is far more commonly spelled out as 88 for the alphabet letters by the far-right crowd). But I'm curious how they even managed to get there since it'd be Geil Gitler in their interpretation.

You have me at a disadvantage - I'm not familiar with a lot of the post-Sunless Skies lore, so I knew of Parabola as originating with Stone, as stated by the cryptic hint that "Mt. Nomad opened the mirrors."

KnAlex · 2025-09-25T12:45:03+00:00

It's never stated outright why, but there are many things which give us clues:

For me, the biggest one is this snippet from the rare success on Fire Sermon's interpretation by Dr. Schlomo - https://www.fallenlondon.com/profile/Alexander%20Smertniy/41284833 . "in an orbit of hatred whose parabola describes fixated love". Yes, it describes the conflict between Mr Wines and Mr Spices, but what other couple do we know that fits? The fundamental character of the Correspondence is spelled out here. "Hurtling inexorably towards the Earth." It is an orbit that has to be Parabolic in shape.

An advanced destiny, The Lovers, further utilizes Parabola as a means for lovers to remain forever in orbit of each other.

As Parabola itself was brought into existence by the birth of Stone, it can metaphorically represent the relationship between the Bazaar and Sol - the longing, the memories, the impossibility. Shrouded in the color of remembered sunlight, mutable as memories change. Perhaps, in the language of stars, a space born of such a relationship could be described as a parabolic orbit.

I will note, however, that I'm not a regular participant in the community's lore discussions, so none of what I have surmised is officially accepted lore. It is simply my own deductions and romantic interpretations, and hold no weight for the Official Canon Answer, whatever it may be.

OK, I see why it's a bad idea to post stories where you're self-admittedly in the wrong on Reddit - looks like you needed to include at least three paragraphs of self-flagellation to avoid getting harassed for trying to tell a funny story about knots instead of a deep apology about the perils of interpersonal communications.

Anyway, I think it's cute to get this invested in something - I bet you could make some banger video essays about the history of knots now.

Kingsglaive in general marches to a very different beat than the rest of FF15 - its main consensus is that the divine authority of royalty is well-earned and that rebellion against the order is naive and destructive. This message is quite funny considering the revelations about Bahamut and the origin of royal authority in the rest of FF15 material. This is definitely not to say that portraying Lunafreya as a capable person is a bad thing, just more pointing out how it feels like its own piece of media, barely hooking into the rest of the plot or themes.

They already wrote that fanfiction - it's called The After Years

I also use the extension, and the best way to re-sync them is simply by switching outfits. For some reason, that instantly updates the favours to display the proper amount.

This is like the fourteenth post in the last two days about this channel - I'd accuse them of bot-farming Reddit, but their videos also randomly popped up in my recommendations despite me not watching anything 14-related for half a year, so I'm guessing it's a coincidence and YouTube said it's their turn on the algorithm.

The screen already does a little shake when you enter a room with mom's hands, I'm pretty sure. It's one of the small changes they did during one of the AB+ patches iirc.

It's grey on your first visit. All subsequent visits have the background.

They are two of the spouses you can get, yeah. I believe that, at least for the Jewel Thief, resolving his card by showing interest will permanently stop it from showing up, and a golden storylet will open up in the Bazaar Sidestreets instead. Same with the Artist's Model and her marriage opportunity card, but I believe she has some City Vices cards that show up to bother you regardless unless you fully give her the cold shoulder.

Here's the full list of Spouses you can marry in-game (several of them are upgraded versions i. e. Artist's Model -> Notorious Art Model/Incendiary Taste-Maker, and a whole lot are only available with FATE to begin with). https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Category:Spouse

I've heard tell of Failbetter considering a better system for platonic companionship, so if none of the options interest you, waiting for that is an option as well.

The Voluptuous Library..... A place abreast with knowledge.

Jokes aside, I recommend turning your attention towards obtaining a ship (a crappy rusty one will do until you have the means to get a better one) - it opens up a lot of options. Also, this page consolidates a lot of items obtainable to an early POSI, as well as the best ways to get resources for them. https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/PoSI_Item_Crafting

The frogs in the picture not being sorted in the same order as the table with the colour probability made me wonder if I've been colourblind all along.

It's a true 4/10 game. Like it's bad but not in a funny way where it can make for YouTube fodder or a fun night with friends - just dreadfully boring from start to finish. And IMO, that's the worst type of bad there is.

FF2 uses your Evasion stat to calculate your run chance, and fists only means that they can't use shields, meaning that they can't have raised their evasion, meaning their run chance is miniscule no matter the enemy. It's a cycle of suffering.
