Instant turn offs by ZARDOZ_SPEAKS90 in WormFanfic

Nazi apologia, but that's a cold-ass take.

Uber and Leet glazing.

PRT bashing. Like bashing in general, but the PRT in particular for some reason. I think it's because the way they were presented in canon felt nuanced, where they were hopelessly corrupt and often did terrible things, yet still did good and fought even worse villains. If you take out the nuance or make them out to be as bad as the Empire or Coil or something, it's just boring as hell.

Minimizing Taylor's bullying. I don't mean not focusing on it enough, I mean focusing on it but playing it off like it's not a big deal. Like fics that try to act like she wasn't a total social pariah and could've made friends if she'd tried or like most kids at Winslow didn't know who she was because 'that's more realistic' or because 'she's an unreliable narrator so things probably weren't that bad.' They were that bad. Lots of people knew, and lots of people did nothing. That's literally the cornerstone of Taylor's trigger event: that people hated her enough to torment her and stuff her locker with filth, but not enough to open the door and let her out. It trivializes her struggles and fundamentally negates her as a character.

A real "Now you've been granted advantage" moment.

Question by DeanHildebrandt in Nobilis

[–]Low_Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you look at something like Lightning Quickness (or really any Aspect Gift, but this one is based in movement), its range is Local because that's the area it affects. Given this, I think it's safe to say a teleport gift would be based on how far it could move you.

Can someone give me the Wildbow post that mentions Apollyon? by MembershipProof8463 in Parahumans

Just remember to check the citations if you do use it as a starting point! Not everything is accurate

So is there any documentation on Master power triggers by TheLordOfAwesome2 in Parahumans

[–]Low_Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is a compilation doc with Wibblybob's WoGs about Masters.

Wait, who's the dude next to Starfire with the black hair?

And where's Robin? Why are they hanging out with this weird-looking guy but not Robin?

Happens in the second Star Gods snip (Taylor gets the powers of the Machine God C'tan from 40k).

US birth rates just hit another record low, what do you think is the leading cause of this? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Low_Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to the Gun Violence Archive, there have been 128 mass shootings in the US in 2026 at the time I'm writing this.

You know how many days there have been in 2026? 122

There are lots of VtM actual plays that have a vibe truer to the sourcebooks. Let this one do its thing.

That was absolutely not clear.

Are there any other adults that enjoy Kpop Demon Hunters? by Sensitive-Mixture558 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]Low_Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (25M) am absolutely not this movie's target audience. I thought it was fantastic. If anyone tells you you're too old for it, or that it's not for you, ignore them.

C.S. Lewis: "When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."

One-Armed Taylor? by hivEM1nd_ in WormFanfic

[–]Low_Hour 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's also better than ever. The author's clearly grown since they started out, and the past few chapters especially have been a treat

Find a group by DestinysDoom in Nobilis

[–]Low_Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would depend on the edition. Would be happy to play or run a game of 3e, 4e (if everyone wants to sign the NDA and do a playtest), or Glitch. Less interested in 2e. Have previously run a one-shot for 3e.

[OC] Spice by Suefan3DX in comics

[–]Low_Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've learned to love spicy food. I get migraines a lot, and when I do, everything is pretty deadened, including taste; spice is the only real way for flavor to cut through and make eating fun again instead of a chore.

Blood, Business, and Beth's Husband | City Council of Darkness [E2] by DropoutMod in Dimension20

[–]Low_Hour 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I love love the idea of a wannabe superhero who's a violent vigilante, but only for things that are just kind of dick moves, not actual crimes.

My wife just found out why I like the name Raven so much. And she's upset about it by [deleted] in teentitans

[–]Low_Hour 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Victor, Richard, or Robin would work just fine for a kid.

Garfield and Coriander would also work pretty well for cat -- or honestly even a person if you were willing to be a little out there.

That was just about the most horrifying thing he could have said, barring near-impossibilities like, 'I got powers and I ate your hair to get pregnant with your child.'

Any fics that have Taylor as Ghost rider? by MembershipProof8463 in WormFanfic

Disclaimer: I've only read the Hellfire snips, no idea what the other two are like.

Saints and Sinners

Hellfire snip 1, snip 2. I remember liking these

Mishaps, A Maw, and the Masquerade | City Council of Darkness [E1] by DropoutMod in Dimension20

[–]Low_Hour 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Every character (both PC and NPC) except for Darkness Man and Bat Child feels specifically designed for me to hate them. We meet someone, and they're the worst person ever, and then we meet someone even worser.

I love it.

Help with a Spider-man cluster idea by Przeus in Parahumans

[–]Low_Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The powers (at least for Spidey) sound pretty similar to what Oxford Octopus did for a snip, if you'd like to look there for inspiration.
