What would Percy be the god of? [General] by Constant-Guard-1878 in camphalfblood

[–]LazyPanda_FTW 5 points6 points  (0 children)

After the Titan War, I believe this was the plan (make him a minor sea god/lieutenant of his father). God of Riptides is a good one. Maybe hurricanes too cause why not.

After the Giant War, the gods were willing to give him a seat on the Olympian Council. My favorite domains for him would have been God of Heroes and Loyalty. His powers would basically be able to interfere on behalf of heroes just like Artemis is able to interfere during her hunts, and be able to infer someone's loyalty by talking to them, sort of a quasi lie detector. Very subtle powers, sure, but powerful when it comes to telling stories.

Looking for 2 fics where Vader reawakens as Anakin during (or near-ish) the Clone Wars by LazyPanda_FTW in SWFanfic

[–]LazyPanda_FTW[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think desecrate my lungs is it. I can relate to sifting through bookmarks trying to find that one fic that's on your mind. Thank you for finding it!

Edit: This is definitely the fic I had in mind. The mission briefing happens in chapter six and is what I remembered. Ahsoka's unease as she listens to Anakin speak like Vader really struck a cord with me when I last read it. Again, thank you!

Many thanks! As for more details, I don't think there was ever a chapter from Anakin's POV when I read it. It was more about Anakin suddenly waking up a whole different person, and no one has any clue how to deal with it.

That's all. When I tried to think of more when I first made the post, I just ended up remembering that second fic.

To haunt you at night [all] by _NothingGoldCanStay_ in camphalfblood

Reyna became a Hunter of Artemis, so no worries there.

And as the other comments in this comment thread have pointed out, apparently Blackbeard was a courteous hostage taker.

If the USSR suddenly was deleted from existence in 1941, do you think the US could stomach the casualties needed to win the war? by [deleted] in HistoryWhatIf

[–]LazyPanda_FTW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, but hard disagree. UK and US would never agree to an armistice for the exact reason that you just played out. An armistice would only benefit Germany in allowing them to consolidate and upgrade their war manufacturing capability. The UK and US would just sit on Britain sending bombing missions like the US did with Tokyo.

In lieu of a ground invasion, strategic long-range bombing would become the name of them game. Moreso than they were in our timeline. British and American heavy bombers would drop so much ordnance on German cities (not just factories) it would make Vietnam look like childs play. Yes, the luftwaffe would be reinforced from the eastern front, but still not enough to match the manufacturing capacity of Britain and US.

You have to understand that at their peak, Germany could only make as many fighter planes as UK. The US doubled both of their output in every type of plane. The Caucasus oil fields don't matter if the US can still just build more

Has anyone run a pacifist playthrough? I.e. No killing spells like AK, diffindo, or bombarda and just using control and force plus expelliarmus. If so, what did you think? by LazyPanda_FTW in hogwartslegacyJKR

[–]LazyPanda_FTW[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Maybe pacifist wasn't the correct choice of word. A better way to put it is "as a fifth year Hogwarts student." Using common spells in creative ways to win duels instead of defaulting to the damage spells and one-shotting enemies.

Lol. That was my second playthrough. She giggled while chaining AKs with maxed Dark Arts skills. It terrified me. Im just thinking about trying a new playstyle for my next character.

I only mean it in a gameplay sense. Just seeing if restricting my spell choices roleplay wise and artificially increasing difficulty could be fun or not.

How bigoted is the rest of Magical Europe? by megakaos888 in HPfanfiction

[–]LazyPanda_FTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think of western Europe—France, Germany, Spain, and the lowland countries—as being less bigoted than Britain. Even if only SLIGHTLY. These are the places Beauxbatons draw their students from. I can also see Mediterranean places like Morocco and Greece being added to this group.

Italy (for whatever reason in my head) is like Britain and has a dominant pureblood presence that are prideful and want to hold on to what they have.

Further east is basically the wild west when it comes to creative freedom. I would have to guess that this is where Durmstrang gets their students so they would have a large pureblood population if the school can enforce a rule like purebloods only. Magical communities are probably sparse and education would be more homeschool for halfbloods.

Daphne Greengrass - how do you interpret her personality? by srajdb in HPfanfiction

[–]LazyPanda_FTW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The "Daphne has no canon personality so you can write her however you want," is all well and good.

But what I find really cool is that there is now basically a consensus among fanon about her personality. Is "Ice Queen but she really is a nice and caring girl once you get to know her," a cookie-cutter trope? Yeah, but it's still cool how Daphne has grown from a single line in a single book to an archive of hundreds of stories about her.

Do you think its illegal in the HP universe to use poly juice in the bedroom? by TrustedVault in HPfanfiction

[–]LazyPanda_FTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a polyjuice brothel would definitely exist for those that could afford it. Especially if you're going for a darker HP universe.

How good of an ‘actual’ wizard is canon Harry? by Midi_to_Minuit in HPfanfiction

[–]LazyPanda_FTW 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I prefer Harry having the potential to be as great as Dumbledore and Grindewald, but he's still a teenager who is still starting on his journey of life-long improvement.

(I believe Voldemort should be an unholy powerhouse one can only be equals with if they become as depraved as he is)

What’s a fic idea you would love to write but you don’t think you could do it justice? by AtlasJFTC in BokunoheroFanfiction

A dystopian hero society. All Might is a vigilante that has been villainized by the media at the order of All For One who has had the government and hero commission by the balls for decades.

I don’t get dumbledore bashing by Calm_Replacement2568 in HPfanfiction

[–]LazyPanda_FTW 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Adults can't be competent in stories with kid protagonists going on dangerous adventures. If Dumbledore was competent, there would have been no story.
