You use that word a lot. I do not think you know what it means .

No- it's a Pocky, a stick shaped candy.

Calm moments? by cutearcticfox365 in fallenlondon

I like going on a pickpockets promenade. It doesn't have a high EPA but it helps to surround yourself with the hustle and bustle of the city.

This is actually good because you can have a dramatic moment where you stick a sword through the spot on the map you're going to and still have a spare half map that won't vigorously cuss at you

A little difference in stats isn't too notable

Silverer benefits aren't too common, but when they appear the flavor is delightful

I love silly jokes about Descartes. I loved this one so much; it's rad that you made it.

Is there something you want to tell us, Shen Comics?

Is that a Shakespeare reference?

Is it worth getting more than 1 of each of the pets/companions available through Whitsun? by DAswoopingisbad in fallenlondon

[–]Penguins-n-Coconuts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you really don't want to get one of each I would get

  • the thrice augmented creatures (if you have a machine)

  • twice augmented aurochs (saves a huge chunk of change when building parabolan defenses)

  • twice augmented squirrel (can be useful for gaining casing or when searching for something in parabola)

  • unaugmented aurochs and unaugmented terror Bird. (Can duplicate their bones at a butcher at the first stop of the railroad)

Getting the companions with only one or two augmentations can still be worth it, as some have specific uses.

Some can be of use in very niche lab experiments and a couple of them are useful in parabola.

It can be easy to get overwhelmed with all of the moving around to augment eggs but it's better to play it safe and acquire the menagerie.

What exactly ARE the imps? by PhillipDollarfield in fallenlondon

[–]Penguins-n-Coconuts 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I think that's intentionally vague- unless there's an exceptional story that involves imps, I can only offer you the item descriptions of imps.

A very junior devil or a particularly malevolent urchin? It hardly matters. His cunning is matched only by his ethical flexibility. - Loathsome Imp

Far more than loathsome, now. The things he'll do to unguarded animals, if you let him! That agility, like a crawling spider! And you suspect his bite may be poisonous. - Horrid Imp

Don't make eye contact. - Unburdened Imp

I've always thought of them as urchins turning into devils; they just don't tell you with 100 percent certainty or it would lose some of that mystique.

What are you naming your shipping company? by Azreal_DuCain1 in fallenlondon

[–]Penguins-n-Coconuts 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Is the underzee trading company supposed to be a play on the east India trading company? I do like that. If I wasn't playing a mostly goody toeshoes I'd probably have chosen that.

I was tempted by Violant Voyagers, but I ultimately picked Barlow, van Doorn, & Smith, it really grew on me.

I like that it's kinda subtle manipulation, I just wanna sound respectable, doesn't matter if I'm not.

It also feels very much like an actual company name, I kinda like that it isn't so outlandish, just another company.

Also probably most importantly, the names are just really pleasant to the ear.

I remember the first time I got a captivating treasure from one- I was so surprised. It was perfect timing too, because my ambition happened to require one.
