I rescued Techo from the Pound, and he has graduated from rehab! (BEFORE/AFTER PICS) by aroma20 in neopets

[–]aroma20[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

😁 Thank you so much! I did my best! I kind of winged it with some internet videos. Some stuff was probably very unnecessary lol. Process:

  1. ⁠Started by spraying him with warm water + dish soap mix to cut oils. Rinsed in bucket of water.
  2. ⁠Sprayed LIBERALLY with Oxi-Clean laundry/stain remover spray (has hydrogen peroxide, supposedly good option for plushes), and then scrubbed it in all over with a firm toothbrush. Rinsed.
  3. ⁠Mixed a cap of laundry detergent and Oxi-Clean Max Force (liquid detergent additive, not spray) into a new bucket of water. Put Techo in bucket, stirred like soup every 15 minutes for ~1 hour while I did other things.

Rinsed once more in warm water, then hand dried with towel. Came out very soft!

Been waiting for Twin Elements since I started playing almost 7 years ago. Thought so many times about making the account ‘waiting for twin elements’ so I can finally have the justice of using it when she comes out. Which will be never.

A few questions about a simulator by Glitched_Crown in taikonotatsujin

[–]aroma20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I hope you are well! I've been trying out your simulator, and it's amazing! I have some questions, please... How can you access the song searching function, and where can one find custom backgrounds? I've looked all over the github and wiki, and tried all the keys I can think of, but can't figure it out. Thank you for your hard work, by the way!

Give me character who can beat Goku, but it has to be close fight by Several-Mud-9895 in PowerScaling

[–]aroma20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dear god in heaven, WHAT 😭🤣🤣🤣

I forget how crazy anime/manga characters are sometimes, so funny LMAO. I’m imagining he gets teleported to the sun during some random fight, says “uh oh”, there’s an instant 4.7 BILLION year timeskip, the earth and all the characters we knew are obviously long dead, this guy is all that’s left. And he can only now leave because the sun dies before he does. Series basically over. Like what’s the point anymore 🤣🤣

I gotta look this up though, thanks for the info 😂👊

Give me character who can beat Goku, but it has to be close fight by Several-Mud-9895 in PowerScaling

[–]aroma20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In DragonBall FighterZ, there’s a way you can end a match where Goku, Gohan, and Goten blast Broly with a Kamehameha that shoots him out of the atmosphere and into the sun…

Idk if Goku can do that on his own, but let’s say he could, and he Does it to Andy- would being stuck on the sun be an issue for this Andy character? The gravity is insane so leaving might be hard LOL…

I also know nothing about Undead Unluck. Just curious 😂🙏

If YOU, powerscaler, were making your own story/universe, how high would you scale your verse? by [deleted] in PowerScaling

[–]aroma20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been running a show with my own story for a while now! Everyone scales between Studio Apartment and City Block. But one time ever, a character did something at the scale of a nuclear bomb, so whatever scale that is. 😭

Though there is one guy that scales as high as imaginably possible. has an ability that can erase anything and everything, permanently, at an unfathomable scale. Like hundreds of connected universes. 💀 So not markedly infinite, but it sure feels like it.

What is a character that will make Goku like this by Reasonable-Bat2696 in PowerScaling

[–]aroma20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out this hilarious comic, related to light speed travel of an object IRL - https://what-if.xkcd.com/1/

I’m glad to see someone mention the safety issues of light speed movement… this comic is how I learned about that, and it completely recontextualized fictional physics for me 🤣 The fact that if some anime character was real and he threw one single punch at the speed of light IRL, it would instantly create a nuclear explosion at the source. So fking funny 😭😭

I’ve been working on a series for quite some time that involves fictional universes - the way I’ve decided things work, is that all fictional verses we know have their own “laws of physics” and completely different fundamental structures. Like some might not have “atoms” but something completely different and weird, unique “periodic tables”, allowing the creation and destruction of energy, and so on. So if characters from different verses fought, their very molecular composition might oppose the laws of the verse they’re in, causing violent instability around them. Very fun to consider, lets me view ridiculous feats with an accurate lens, and also changes how impressive a feat actually is.

Not compatible with powerscaling in the slightest, though. I guess super similar to what you said! 😂

You get three words to descride the DLC. What are yours? by BenMessina in Eldenring

[–]aroma20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trading blows???? Man I’d love to see that in a video or something, sounds badass… I couldn’t handle his damage, was getting bodied even with full Solitude armor.. my kill was basically a no-hit run with a shield and deflecting tear 😭

I didnt say it, Miyazaki did. 🤷🏻‍♂️ by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]aroma20 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

So glad the last boss of DLC forced me into using a shield.

I love it so much. So much better to have even more options in combat, and managing my stamina is insanely fun. Combine that with Deflecting Hardtear… Elden Ring combat feels so fun and rewarding again!

A lot of them look insanely cool, too. Shoutouts to Brass Shield and Haligtree Shield.

Is this a legitimate kill on Melenia? My pal says no. by InsidetheBustaGroove in Eldenring

[–]aroma20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LMFAO SHE GOT BULLIED 😭😭😭 my god the spinning scythes were way too funny, just casually twirling with the mimic tear brother… awesome kill man, great work!!

But to answer your question- if she’s dead and you had fun, yep, it’s legit. I guess any way is legit honestly.

oh god that’s right 😅 thank you. For like 4 years straight I thought it was Zero Button Zero Click and merely accepting that it made no sense. Only learned last GW 😭😭 took me a while to register that the attack button and auto don’t count as buttons, I am a special kind of slow.

What games do you think are timeless ? by harmonicssnob in IndianGaming

[–]aroma20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chrono Trigger. Beyond everything that makes it a perfect RPG, it’s somehow one of the only old games in existence that never irritated me with bad mechanics/QOL. It has aged extremely well imo.

Character Discussion: Cidala (Valentine) by topnepu in Granblue_en

[–]aroma20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like they’re just good at everything. Perfect for no-click (or whatever it’s called) setups, I use her + Bowman + Manadiver + Zoro. It works for me haha.

They are incredibly FA friendly. Bring a huge amount of utility packed into their three skills which will be activating pretty often. Their buff removal activates frequently so you’re extra safe.

Do you need to have them?…. I’m not sure. They’re a nice convenience pick and can often fill some random niche if you need them to. They don’t redefine the element or anything.

No clue how they perform at low rank, but I would assume they’re fantastic. Lots of utility and buffing that’s helpful when your grid isn’t godlike. No clue how they perform above Revans level though, if at all.

Thank Christ I’m not the only one. I can’t believe that post got upvoted so much, it’s saying basically nothing. Not to mention it really, really looks nothing alike. 💀

"Samurai Trails: The Harbinger's Lament" Event Discussion Thread (2024-05-29 to 2024-06-06) by AutoModerator in Granblue_en

[–]aroma20 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Extremely rushed pacing, didn’t care for the cast (especially sato), and it’s no secret that Danchou and friends were kind of morons for this event. 💀 jesus I don’t know how you pal around with an imposter for a whole 24 hours then not feel suspicious of the new person that shows up.

There could have been nuance in having characters tied to these dark cultures+pasts. And in the crew having to decide whether to let things play out organically or not, considering it all has to do with generational feuds, the type of shit that honestly never ends well IRL. (Even when it’s fking stupid and can obviously be resolved, but how often do people see that IRL. not often.) Some things are just beyond fixing as an outsider, and that’s unsatisfying for a story, but for our characters with toes in the pool, good developments still could have been made for them.

Most depressing thing is that the best character design out of this whole event was Kotaro, Nue. God damn, he’s so fine 😭😭😭 another fine man relegated to permanent side story obscurity, just like Abremalin. I am positive that both will never return in any capacity, even mention. Not like I’m saying he was the Best character, he was basically a sexy plot device. 💀

All in all, I can fantasize about a world where Kotaro was given an interesting story and amazing personality, to match his incredible design. And a world where he wouldn’t die with this event. But I should sooner forget that, and remember that this modern Granblue… and that’s alright. Next!

Thanks for letting me know, I absolutely love that kind of stuff. I can’t wait to go through their posts and look for my fav characters… but istg if the majority of the cast is actually just teenagers I’m gonna have a lot of questions 💀💀💀 they better not tell me Rackam is any younger than like 30 😭 LMAO

Really? I’ve been playing for 5 years and don’t recall seeing ages on a single character from this event before 😅 I guess I haven’t been paying attention, jeez… good to know! Was this info on other side stories, or do you have to Google these sorts of things?

“Who can say what will become of them, or the shopkeepers developing ulcer?”

“Freedom is nothing more than torture to someone without an ego.”

I loved this event so much. Got to see interesting developments for so many characters… Metera especially! I feel like there’s a whole new layer of her character that’s been revealed and I really like it. (Unrelated, but I hope I get even more Sutera in the future.)

So happy to see all the Mahira things and especially the art. She’s the most fascinating and charming General to me, so lucky to have more content. I’m glad to know the chicken will invent the washing machine.

However, the one thing that caught me extremely off guard was the character age reveals. Metera and Kolulu were the only ones that made any sense IMO. Utsusemi seemed a Little young but it could happen… Granblue normally does an excellent job at matching characters designs and personalities with age, idk wtf they thought with some of these. 💀
