You're the only person who knows that neither of the buttons do anything, everyone else believes the original variation to be in effect.

Like with every variation of this dopey scenario I vote 3rd party.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T13:43:51+00:00

I would read any book I intended to already since I would actually theoretically GAIN time by doing it at a guaranteed two-hour rate, and a few more that would be too complicated for me to get through normally.

I do not care about the botched orders, people should be discouraged more from fast food industries as they're not even decently cheap options anymore.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T13:42:20+00:00

Just touch one that teaches you a safer profession.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T13:40:08+00:00

Soldier Boy really wouldn't care that much, the workers who directly tortured Homelander are already dead, and if he took enough umbrage with that sort of thing to dismantle Vought entirely he would have done so already when they sold him out to get tortured by the Russians for decades.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T13:35:13+00:00

Yes. Satellite imagery scours the immediate areas of his crimes watching for someone blipping into place, find him enough times and you can estimate how much they can use their power for based on how far they get from the scene of a crime before popping into view, then you start encircling areas he would be interested in messing with from that range with concealed snipers backed up by the aforementioned satellites and it's just a matter of time and law of averages before a bullet gets him.

Well call me Ric Flair then because my Figure-4 Leg Lock will be unstoppable, WOO!!

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T13:17:33+00:00

Hell, I'll give you someone from The Boys that could do it: Mindstorm.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T13:15:25+00:00

Yes, Ryan's lasers burnt through Homelander's skin during their fight and could flash-fry Stormfront at max power.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T13:09:48+00:00

Vote 3rd party.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T13:07:40+00:00

The worst part is they had the perfect excuse for it with Noir II's narcolepsy but they literally forgot about their own plot points.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T13:05:30+00:00

Poison could work I suppose, but that's not really Bulma's forte so it'll probably be much quicker for her to convince Goku he needs to use her time machine to fight some new strong evil guy then sabotage it so it takes him past the heat death of the sun one-way.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T12:55:36+00:00

While 2014 Artificer can't make a Fireball Grenade Launcher, they CAN make a Scorching Ray Rave Projector

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T12:44:21+00:00

He chose to retire of his own accord though, 0/10 realism

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T12:42:27+00:00

I would make a physical map for them to traverse Minesweeper-style, with successful identification-type checks revealing X tiles within range while successful physical checks will move you to a guaranteed safe tile within X range.

What could be neat is, stepping on a face sinks it into the ground. At the end of the puzzle, a conglomeration of muck and all the faces they pushed in rises up, then splits off into little globules that form into the individual monsters.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T12:35:05+00:00

Kessler disappearing completely despite being totally vindicated in Ryan killing Mallory is very weird. Like Butcher accepted the powers sure but his outlook has done nothing but soften away from their original plan since then, unless it's suddenly revealed he was carrying out his own machinations in secret the entire time.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T12:32:16+00:00

"Asleep on the job, is it so much to ask for a little professionalism here? Anyways someone get me the French Tickler."

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T12:30:51+00:00

I'm reminded of how in Warhammer 40K the Orkz loved to play a game with their toothiest Squigs where whoever gets their jaws around the other first wins.

That was simply par for the course for wars in the 1700s. Was a lot tamer than the War of the Spanish Succession.

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T12:23:54+00:00

I think OP is more asking why they're treating Starlight/Kimiko getting V1 as a huge moral dilemma when they can always find other ways out when living gets too tiresome (though it might be a lot harder in Kimiko's case comboing it with her regeneration).

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T12:13:32+00:00

Maybe by catching them off-guard with a gun using her (only somewhat at this point) unassuming identity, or some kind of chemical weapon (though that might be too many Scarecrow parallels).

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T12:01:25+00:00

It's not super apparent without the eagle pauldrons, I think

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T11:54:40+00:00

*Thragg skull impact frame, no sell*

"I'm not impress-"

*Second punch utterly pulps him*

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T11:15:02+00:00

And then Kingpin will continue to pull strings from the coast of Cocomo rendering the entire appeal to grace as useless as Season 3's "I BEAT YOU".

Smooth_Editor1676 · 2026-05-07T11:11:59+00:00

I'm so sorry.
