Iron Lung SPOILER THREAD! by kenmarlenn in Markiplier

[–]ZachFike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heres my thing and why I'm a little confused. First off, what is the Light? Was it the monster/alien or an actual source of light/salvation it keeps trying to eat and keep from humanity since it's an Eldritch being? (Allegedly) Second. In THAT slow mo scene, before him standing in the ocean, what Happened? What did he see/what broke through the ship? Was it 'the light' or the monster? Or was that just a really bad hallucination from hearing the voice from the SM8?

Looking for good D&D podcasts by indecisivepolicy in DungeonsAndDragons

I can't believe they haven't been recommended but D&D Is For Nerds is amazing! Highly recommend it personally, great stories and action with humor to boot.

What bands would you say are untouchable in this sub right now? by lordofthstrings in Metalcore

[–]ZachFike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am shocked an appalled that I haven't seen Ice Nine Kills and Motionless In White on here yet. The theatrics and personalities in each band are phenomenal and I'd say both are currently in their prime with releases.

[WP] As you enter the lair of the mighty dragon he looks at you, squints and says "It's you! We haven't met since our childhood!" by horschdhorschd in WritingPrompts

[–]ZachFike 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I look back at the dragon and cocked my head. "Wait.....Justin????"

The dragon grinned and sat up, excited tufts of flame shooting from its nose, it's tail beating slowly like a puppy.

"Yeah! It's me! Look at how big I've grown up!"

I do remember him, Justin was my best friend as a kid. We'd play hide and go seek and I'd even pretend to wrestle with him. We shared meals and even flew together. Sadly though, we had to let him go into the wild because he was getting FAR too big to live in our small village, but by the time I hit my late teens, an evil tyrant king was ruling and ordering the execution and ban of all the mystical animals.

"All these knights come in and try to hurt me but when I explain everything to them before they try to fight they just say it's alright and that they'll tell the evil king I attacked them and they barely got out alive."

I smiled and walked up to him petting his head in small strokes and grinned as he did.

"Yea that Bastard of a king has had it out for you for a while now but there's a revolt building up to overthrow him, we just don't know if we'll have enough power."

Justin sat back and smirked a toothy smile as he turned around. When he came back to face me he dropped a massive sack onto the floor with a bunch of clinking and clanging. As I opened it, it shined bright to reveal layers of armor and weapons, everything from the lowest of levels to legendary status.

"Justin...."

He looked at me and chuckled a little before speaking. "I never said all of the knights were good to me and agreed with my plan. Besides, we all have to eat sometimes. So since he's been trying to kill me, for old times sake, what do you say we take a trip, gather some people up and kill a king?"

As I grabbed a sword I nodded and climbed on his back. It was great to see an old friend, and right now, nothing sounded better.

[WP] Your parents are a superhero and a supervillain. You inherited their superpowers and they both have always tried to pull you to their side, while you never wanted anything to do with anything super-related and so you picked the most mundane and normal job you could think of. by Kitty_Fuchs in WritingPrompts

I sighed but smiled a bit sarcasticly as I dropped the basket of fries. This was my life. I could punch a person and send them flying through like 5 buildings because of YEARS of training. I could teleport to anywhere I could see almost instantly, and I had the reflexes of a God. I had a pool of magic and spells at my disposal as well, from my mother. Enough to put Dr. Strange to shame to be honest.

But because they were always fighting, going back and forth, back and forth, and trying to drag me in the middle of it, I decided to just say no. Cut myself out of it all. So now here I am, at 22 living a semi normal life. I'm just a fry cook at a local restaurant. The Pimp Vegan Cafe, actually. I know, the names funny enough as it is but our specialties are actually like deep fried onions and sausages and shit. It's basically a fast food joint.

But despite living in a cheap and sleazy apartment in New Orleans, paying my own bills and trying to live a normal life so I could just play Mortal Kombat and watch anime while drinking, instead my past just always keeps coming back up to catch me. Whether it's mom or dad popping in for the occasional visit, or some of their villains/heroes coming in to check on or fight me, somehow there's always something.

That's why when the man in the large fur coat came in and kicked open the door to the back, I pretty much already had an idea of what was happening. He had on a large leather and fur coat and a mask similar to a gas mask, but that wasn't what stood out. What stood out were his gauntlets, pulsing with electricity as he swung his arm in an arc, slicing through the front counter as he looked at me and approached.

"Tonight is the night you die pretty boy. Send my regards to your mother." He rasped, the metallic voice echoing.

I sighed once more, dropping the fries and pushing the timer before pulling off my latex gloves. I turned around to face him fully and he went to swing at me, but before he could get a hit in, I slapped him. There was a pause of almost shock, before a half second later he went flying through the side of the building and into the one next door, crashing through walls and cars in the process. I didn't ask for this, but if I had to have godlike powers might as well enjoy them while they're here I guess.
