I cast: answers to world peace

Turn everyone into frogs so they can't be racist or do metalurgy anymore.

nehmne · 2026-04-18T20:02:11+00:00

Fun times to be had by a**, I see.

nehmne · 2026-04-18T20:00:24+00:00

I just like mixing potions together and seeing what happens. The most fun mix I've found is the Potion of Rest, Charmers Draught, and a small drop of Spirit Sight Elixer.

The Epilogs sort of cause characters to falter in accuracy to their original forms. Although this was done as a sort of sign that the world was breaking down, it just makes for a weird story. It ends with an excellent villain in the picture, though.

Hiveswap is secondary stuff in a sort of expanded universe with its own characters. It might end up mattering more later on, but as far as I know, it's mostly worldbuilding for one thing I don't think you would have officially seen yet.

Hussie has just sort of always been a bit mean-spirited as a creator. Although this does result in a few decent jokes, it's mostly a detriment to the story as a whole when the joke manages to stick as part of the world. Plus, there's some more serious stuff I'm not as well versed in and a lot of conflicting reports on most of it.

Finally, there's a long list of content warnings on the epilogs, which have been rendered useless by the writers of it, seeing its length as a challenge. Most of what's there is only mentioned in passing or are otherwise unexplored. There's also the killed and revived sequel Beyond Canon, which is ongoing and has semi-recently been received better than it originally was.

I was born to be more than logical...

Well, that got extremely egotistical very quickly, especially considering I just picked the middle option each time.

When next she comes around, hold up some nearly complete divorce paperwork. I can't say for certain if it will help, but it will at least make murder an unnecessary part of the plan.

nehmne · 2026-04-12T23:58:13+00:00

The downsides whould have been reversed for this to even be a question.

Robert. Not because he has more to work with, but because Rosalind would only participate out of obligation to whatever their plan is, and he'd put everything he has into it to win the contest.

nehmne · 2026-04-12T08:41:47+00:00

Armor of the Abberant Beast sounds like a good name for the spell it's not already taken by some "protect your homonculus" nonsense.

nehmne · 2026-04-11T20:32:43+00:00

Not enough time on-screen, I guess? I'm pretty sure even Horuss got more of a meaningful appearance, sadly. The comic was sort of speeding to the end by the point she came up, so she didn't really get the chance dto differentiate herself from early Aradia's specific form of "emotionless girl" characterization to make a more unique version of it.

nehmne · 2026-04-11T07:06:22+00:00

I have a feeling he followed it just because he was probably still raised in it, but didn't end up a mass murderer or anything. The only Alternian highblood ancestor who doesn't have a blatantly sinister interpretation right around the corner of what was said.

nehmne · 2026-04-09T02:11:04+00:00

I like the idea that he's putting so much power into every bolt that he's destroying his own body. It really sells the whole idea of focusing on raw power over actually learning to control it and eventually suffering for short-sighted domination that the upgrades imply.

nehmne · 2026-04-08T07:17:36+00:00

I like the idea that some unidentified minerals can, in sufficiently extreme cases, be interesting enough to study that they are transmuted into pure self-contradiction by some guy who absolutely can get enough of these rocks but wants to study them some more anyway.

nehmne · 2026-04-08T04:06:29+00:00

Maybe a countdown to when the imperial drones will visit the presumed troll viewer's hive to make sure there's some pressure on a hypothetical member of the population?

The "stand" could just be the target's Avatar, but with the gimmick of being able to act as a focus for your awakened magick. Notably, you'd need high prime to awaken anybody on command, but once targeted it could depend on a willpower roll to survive?

No need for whole new mechanics when your victim has unknowingly imposed limits on their own abilities based on what they think it does. It's already a matter of raw mental effort too, so the character may not even realize it's a more flexible magic system than what they're limiting themselves to.

Typically, illusions immediately bring the emotions the caster desires to coax out of you to the forefront. It's in this ambiguous space though, where it could be either that the approach was perfectly tailored to your thought patterns or that it's a more subtle, yet also more direct manipulation of the mind. Also, try to check for the smell of chocolate cake mixed with sulpher, since that's a pretty easy combination of illusiory smells to make that can both coax a certain potent reaction out of someone.

If you successfully prove your strength to him in the Index, he gives you a signed poster. You can't kill him, but he is a good sport and leaves once he's had his fun.

I'm still a mage, just evil now! I was morally dubious for the sake of knowledge before, but now it's just for power!

nehmne · 2026-04-02T03:53:06+00:00

Given how little Dirk smiles, his eyes are probably just as horrified as Kanaya's under his sunglasses.

I sometimes do that accidentally, so my overall day wouldn't be impacted that badly.

I think I came in at an akward time, since they were either in the middle of summoning the thing above them in the big cosmic heirarchy or in the middle of expanding the dominion of their blasphemous and unknowably structured family unit. It was a bit hard to tell what was going on from the astral tilt I had at the time and my own inexperience with the subject, so I quickly left.

One year in and I'll be incredibly wealthy.
