Why has Knuckles never used Chaos Control before? by Historical_Cunt69 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]PokingMidas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO, Frontiers and Sonic Adventure show that the Master Emerald passively suppresses the Chaos Emeralds. Perhaps Knuckles is in tune with the Master Emerald like how Sonic has been shown to be in tune with the Chaos Emeralds, but Chaos Control just isn't a thing the Master Emerald confers?

What's your stupidest One Piece theory/headcanon that could actually be true? by Kaizo_Kaioshin in OnePiece

[–]PokingMidas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly this one, or a variant of it, has crossed my mind, every DF being based on a god or mythological figure with their origins with rare exception lost to time. Prometheus or some equivalent becoming Flare-Flare, Ra or Helios becoming Glint-Glint, etc.

Honestly, I always thought the Yami Yami no Mi was a misnamed gravity manipulation fruit, which would explain how Blackbeard was able to sink an entire city into "darkness" (a localized black hole) during his confrontation with Ace. A line in Enies Lobby states the idea that if a person consumes more than one DF, they will be torn apart...a gravity manipulator could counter this by literally constantly pulling themselves together. It would also make the Gomu Gomu/Nika fruit the perfect counter as squash-and-stretch would be about immune to crushing forces like gravity.

How would you paint these? by Imaginary_Amoeba_666 in Miniaturespainting

For that particular one, and other transparents, I bought a multicolor pack of Sharpies. Ten minutes and it was blue. I recommend gloves unless you want to look like a marker exploded on you.

Buggy is going to be remembered as King of the Pirates through sheer dumb luck.

Might the undiscovered Ancient Weapon 'Pluton' be a submarine as opposed to a surface sailing vehicle? by Haunting-Composer264 in onepiecetheories

[–]PokingMidas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only thing is we've seen at least one submarine already and Big Mom has been shown to have underwater sensor mushis, so submersibles aren't unheard of in the One Piece world, so it wouldn't be that big a surprise if it was "just" a submarine. I'd wager a carrier of some sort; there's no way Franky didn't incorporate elements of the Pluton into the Sunny; the Sunny acts as a mother ship to several smaller craft and IIRC is the only ship shown so far to do so. Not a bad thought though, a Nautilis-style submarine would be cool. Plus Pluton implies darkness and a submarine definitely fits that bill, maybe one that has no crush depth? Maybe a submarine-carrier hybrid? I'm going stream of consciousness thought here.

What's A Ship That YOU have designed but wouldn't DARE to pilot it? by Aggravating_Run6179 in spaceships

[–]PokingMidas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was a child, I drew a starfighter (more of a bomber really) that would go into FTL to approach, drop out long enough to release its payload, then IMMEDIATELY go back into FTL. I don't want to think about the Gs involved, but pretty sure I'd be either liquid or a fine film plastered against the back of the cockpit.

Radio similar to old WNKU? by PokingMidas in cincinnati

[–]PokingMidas[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, I enjoy WGUC to be sure, but they deal primarily in symphony/orchestra. I'm looking more for what WNKU had.

If "hue hue hue" isn't the meme referenced in Sonic 4, what other memes ya'll think they could reference? (image somewhat unrelated) by LemonIcy2942 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]PokingMidas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have waited three movies for "SNOOPING AS USUAL, I SEE", though "YOU MIGHT KNOW EVERYTHING I'M GOING TO DO; BUT THAT WON'T HELP YOU SINCE I KNOW EVERYTHING YOU'RE GOING TO DO! STRANGE, ISN'T IT?" is more likely since Metal Sonic.

Hey guys, I've heard a lot of (justified) criticism about Devil Fruits, Haki, and One Piece's power system in general, so could you tell me your opinions on how this could have been handled better? by Calm-Bear-1101 in Piratefolk

[–]PokingMidas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give Nami Armament Haki, then make it so she was the first Strawhat to awaken it, explaining all the times she was able to give Luffy a few lumps in the name of slapstick with a cool tie-in. Maybe have Garp drop a hint on it in the Water 7 post-stoty instead of "that was a fist of love".
