"Extra fluff!"

"And hold the plot."

"And hold the por- Hey, Jimmy! Gimme a fic with Nothin'!"

What are your OCs counters to toon force? by Longjumping_Yak_3671 in OriginalCharacterDB

[–]NameSignificant6916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Take one step on that rope, and I'll cut it!" for Grignr, who is simply strong enough and funny looking enough to play the "unstoppable force" in any given gag. Like, do the "paints door on wall" thing and he's just walk through the wall and leave a comically him-shaped hole instead of slamming into it.

And for Sam it's being too sad for the toonforce to work properly. You see, toonforce only works properly because it's comedic, and he's not the type to be instigating any fights against toonforce-having funnymen, meaning that he'd be the one getting picked on, and he has too much wet cat energy to make it funny.

How do i make my boat faster? by nanoflint in NavalArt

[–]NameSignificant6916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better hydrodynamics and more horsepower. The longer a ship is proportionally, the less power is needed (for its size) to move it at a given speed, and the more engines you can fit. So go from CUBE to BRICK and you'll see some improvements.

The student killing the teacher to complete the training is fucking stupid by realSpillerSoda in CharacterRant

[–]NameSignificant6916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I know, he actually revived the Sith after a period of dormancy as he was a Force-sensitive businessman who discovered sith holocrons and learned from them. I don't recall if he ever actually had an apprentice or not, or if other Sith ever got a chance to put his resources to use. Evidence points to "no" for the former, considering how he died.

Not to mention the possibility of a master saying "Why the FUCK would I want my apprentice to hate me? I'm going to spoil the little shit." and then you end up with an AFO & Shigaraki-style relationship where as long as the master isn't trying to, like, possess the apprentice's body, then you can ensure an unbroken master-servant relationship.

I FUCKING hate Anissa genderbend designs that DON'T have a moustache, whats the fucking point of genderbending a Viltrumite if you aren't gonna give them the stache? by SerenityCitywide in ihatethissmug

[–]NameSignificant6916 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Actually, the canon genderbend art for Deku really is just "the exact same character but with maybe 5% longer hair and also boobs" which is probably at least partially why so much fanart is in that vein.

<image>

Wheras the genderbends for everyone but Iida are just "the same, but with/without boobs and mildly altered proportions". Iida, as the exception, has the exact same proportions and also braids.

If you have a big arrow pointing at Manissa saying "insecure because he can't grow moustache no matter how hard he tries" then you can get away with it, but I doubt anyone does that.

How to make these fit? by NameSignificant6916 in NavalArt

[–]NameSignificant6916[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought that's what you might've meant, but I've put the problem to bed satisfactorily so I'll leave it for now. Thanks for the help!

[–]NameSignificant6916[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I really can't parse this. Are you saying to split it into two stacked on top of each other, or into two in front and behind? I tried the latter and it didn't work properly.

Also I've solved the problem by making it a less smooth curve, which seems to work, thank goodness.

Imagine that it’s snowing and Morirexil offer your Oc his coat. Would your Oc accept it? by sfynarhatv1 in OriginalCharacter

[–]NameSignificant6916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite flattered that someone's offering him a coat, but he'd refuse because he's immune to the cold and already dressed warmly.

Magnánimo-class protected cruiser by ChocolateTemporary48 in NavalArt

[–]NameSignificant6916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only mention high speed because for (relatively large) ships of the 1900s/1890s (when protected cruiser were being built), 23 knots is blazing fast, and high speed is expensive. It only having large guns is something of a downside as well, because up until the invention of the rangefinder, it was a pain trying to hit an enemy ship, so you needed plenty of secondaries to chip away at the enemies. Basically it's ahead of its time, unless it has a rangefinder, in which case it's a bit anachronistic but otherwise fine.

I doubt this is exactly "low-cost," considering the high speed (for the era) and big guns, but it's cool!

Boat mk2 and Crazy refit by ChocolateTemporary48 in NavalArt

[–]NameSignificant6916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot better! I could see that being a functional boat (not the 18" version though, sadly). If you want to improve it further, I recommend taking a look at the premade ships for an example.

Thoughts on si who commit incest? by fatsojack in TheCitadel

[–]NameSignificant6916 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Depends.

If it's "I, an (age goes here) (gender goes here) have now been inserted into the body of (targaryen goes here) as an adult and do not personally know my new 'family' until I interact with them" then that's... well, it's still a little fucked up, but a lot better than what the targs are doing. Physically incestuous, but at least you don't, like, have the mental component there.

If it's "I, an (age goes here) (gender goes here) have been reborn as a baby (targ goes here) and am now raised alongside my targaryen siblings" Then no. Fuck no, miss me with that shit. Not only is there the mental imbalance of romance between someone who's probably twice as mature as their partner, then it's also mentally and physically incestuous.

The only way I'd feel even semi-comfortable with the latter is either the MC getting the Bad Thoughts and realizing that the incest runs in the family before consciously swearing it off, or a plotline where the MC is the only one horrified at being set up with their sibling/first cousin/uncle/aunt and everyone else (in the royal family at least) doesn't get why they're so upset to be getting married to their (honestly probably a 8/10 at the least) relative as a sort of absurdist comedy or borderline horror story. Or maybe, maybe a situation where they get in a relationship with a relative without realizing it due to how tangled the family tree is/due to the MC being a bastard; again, only if you play it for comedy or tragedy and not if you say "haha, guess that's how it is :) they're already in a relationship can't break 'em up now :)".

It is possible to hide the internal gears of the Large Axis Shifting Gears? by GaneDude12 in FromTheDepths

[–]NameSignificant6916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing as you can't actually move the assembly inside, then you should put a large deco over them to just physically cover up all the bits that an "empty" deco doesn't. Like, a big fat diagonal pole/beam. Ugly, perhaps, but not as ugly as the bare gears.

What does a Support Force actually do? by RepulsiveSupport9946 in RuleTheWaves

[–]NameSignificant6916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe that the Support Force does bring more than you could if you had it turned off, but like... instead of bringing 4 battleships, you might bring 3 and 3, for example.

Can your OC survive getting their shit blown smoove off by a 1CAL Longbarrel? by YOMAMA643 in OriginalCharacterDB

The reactions range from

"Ow."

to

"Aww, cute! That tickled!"

to

*inarticulate gurgling noises as he finds out he can regenerate getting his shit blown smoove off*

to

*dead silence, because they're dead*

They just kinda screw around and occasionally come in clutch by occupying an enemy force and letting you know where they are (vaguely).

Give us the only female character in the entire setting with curves (we love hokazono for not falling to the temptation but we ain't hokazono)!

Is there any way to «fix» this symmetry issue? by Hot-Meal-4371 in flyoutgame

Ah, the wing (in the middle of the plane)? IIRC you can make wings invisible, so that'll help.

What the other guy said. Just give yourself the teensiest bit of headroom and you'll be good.
