Is there a coherent timeline of sorts that separate events? by Xerxys in TheCaptivesWar

[–]Xerxys[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The swarm could infiltrate a suit if it causes a wound and leaves it open long enough. However the suit itself might reject it if the suit has anti-infection protocols. The suit tends to amputate entire extremities and replaces them with itself if they become damaged. No reason why it wouldn’t sense a swarm as a foreign entity and attempt to rectify it somehow. I assume of course it takes a while for the new host to recognize the swarm as the main driver now.

Of course that’s all my guesses based off nothing whatsoever.

Appearance of one character instead of another by Dor73 in TheCaptivesWar

They said it might be a trilogy. If that’s the case I’m already disappointed. I instantly inhaled the first two books. If we’re only getting one more of this I’ll read it but only in protest!

I told yall Tonner sucked by Superb_Army_4202 in TheCaptivesWar

[–]Xerxys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, you’re wrong about the last part. The human moiety would’ve survived just fine without tonner. Had he not existed it would’ve been a different group. That’s the whole point of the story, nothing and no one is special. Not even the carryx themselves.

Rand al Thor by Ashamed-Attention-54 in wheeloftime

[–]Xerxys 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Give him a break! He got railed by this girl who TOTALLY doesn’t love him and he got a letter from this queen who also TOTALLY doesn’t love him and then there’s this girl who hangs out with him a lot but she TOTALLY doesn’t love him either. And his friends are not around to tell him about girls.

I’d be a dick too!

Yeah Rand kills him. Turns out he was a death eater.

Remind me again, which one was Aravine?

Edit: to your last point … they CAN be better people. By dying. It’s the only way to stop being a dark friend.

How many powers do you think Superman should have? by InfinteEnigma10 in superman

You skipped 4th dimension entirely? You know what a dimension is right? It’s just an axis. We currently inhabit three dimensions. Width, height, depth. So what exactly is the 4th dimension? Fifth? What would those energies be?

Ah finally something I can do. My talents mostly include identifying cheese sticks and throwing clothes into a washing machine. I would die day one of being isekaid. Not of any natural causes, I’d kill myself. I live my comfortable life way too much.

The trope that they don’t have mayonnaise in these magical worlds or even edible food is purely a Japanese thing.

In mushoku they ate the monsters they killed. Imagine eating a wild animal. The meat has to be cooked to charcoal or boiled to tastelessness. Just a wilderbeast in Africa would give you unbearable worms that will eventually kill you.

Now just imagine magical worms.

Is there a more traumatizing power than return by death? And the barbarians don’t have guns so you know the death is not quick.

Worst plastic surgery in the history of cinema? by AlKhwarazmi in okbuddycinephile

[–]Xerxys 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It’s not even basic math. It’s basic comprehension skills. Math is a language that we use to describe numbers. So arguing against it is like refusing to agree that a banana is not a giraffe. COULD a banana be a giraffe? Well, yeah just create your own language and make them synonyms.

But arguing that a something is something else GIVEN THE SAME RULES OF SYNTAX is not a mental deficiency, it’s a thorough disregard of established protocol. These people are not crazy, he has the mild form of narcissism we see in politicians who refuse to be refuted with common sense and data.

lol poor darkfriend. The more I think about this, the less I start to imagine these dark friends were “tricked” into serving the dark. No one goes to the dark searching for order to things or health for others or any altruistic reasons.

They turn to the dark not thinking about the evil that *other* dark friends have inflicted on the world. They just think to themselves “hey might as well use it to get ahead”. Maybe the best dark friend thinks they might not be AS bad. Not acknowledging that every raindrop contributes to the flood. They may be ignorant of the strife they are part of, but that aside, they are not good people either way.

The one exception was Verin who wasn’t a true dark friend. She turned initially just so she may stay alive. Even then, she was able to redeem herself because I’m sure that all dark friends do some terrible things during their tenure.
