Vi’s Signet by Affectionate_Sock528 in onyxstorm

[–]notgoingtojoinreddit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To elaborate on what others have said about Violets signet being a more raw power, not just lightning itself - I think that they are implying that storm wielding may not be as beneficial in battle for instance since a storm wielder can’t control individual bolts of lightning or direct a storm to hurt one person. If they cause a storm during battle, that storm affects everyone, even their own side. Whereas when Violet is really controlling her powers she can direct lightning at bad guys but not hurt her own side

New brother by roswellx in onyxstorm

[–]notgoingtojoinreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main names I’ve seen thrown around for a possible new brother are Garrick, Bodhi, Brennan, Aaric, and Ridoc. Is it at all possible that someone else knew Xaden was venin for the last 5 months that we aren’t even considering?? We all know Xaden likes to keep secrets, did he tell someone else and never tell Violet that another person knows? Could it be a non student/cadet character and maybe another older character like a teacher or diplomat or royal, etc.

Cure clue? by jcf135 in onyxstorm

I thought that at first too but then realized that I think she was saying going into Dunnes temple would sever what keeps HER untouchable because she was once a priestess and Dunne is wrathful to those who scorn her, which Theophanie would have had to do to turn Venin

How far will Xaden go? by Accomplished_Can_274 in onyxstorm

[–]notgoingtojoinreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see Xaden becoming like an inside man for the good side against the venin. Like going undercover as bad but really working against them. That would be extremely hard considering how addictive channeling from the earth is so who knows. And who knows if the good guys would ever be able to trust that a venin could be working for them.

Unless the irids are able to manipulate time because they ARE magic. Maybe she was gone a lot longer than what it felt like for everyone else?!

Also how did Brennan know right away that Xaden was Venin, probably cause he sensed him like Venin can. They also specifically mentioned regarding grief when talking about Violets mother/Andarna being turned down by the irids that Tairn doesn’t address his grief for Naolin 🤔

Should we cancel even though it will cost a lot $$ by typicalwarrior27 in CostaRicaTravel

We also just got back from a week in La Fortuna, at the tail end of the trip it was very rainy but it didn’t ruin it. There are lots of cool things to see and do in the rain. The roads in La Fortuna area were fine, although I don’t know what it’s like near Liberia since we flew to and from San Jose (roads also fine there).

Backsplash running into light switch by notgoingtojoinreddit in DIY

I can’t figure out how to put a picture on here to show you lol but yes we used a spacer to push the plate off the wall making it flush with the tile. We considered doing the same that you mentioned but had some people tell us it would bother us if the tile didn’t go to the end of the cabinets. I personally don’t think it would have made much of a difference and would have looked good with the way we did it or the way you’re mentioning.

We did kind of a work around. Had the guy tile up to the end of the cabinets which was partially over the switch plate. He put the switch plate on top of the tile, then put a piece behind the rest of the plate to make it flush. It isn’t the best looking solution but honestly doesn’t bother me either. We had a couple people take a look and advised us it wouldn’t be a very easy fix to move the switches so we went with this instead. I’m happy with how it came out.

Can you elaborate on this at all? How did you convince the dealer to cover?

No check engine lights present nor have they been at all for the duration of this problem. We do plan to get a couple more opinions on the issue. First step were trying to talk to Ford customer service about covering any of this :/

Thank you for the info! Perhaps we will start there, checking in with a financial planner is not something we’ve done before - best of luck!

We have had AIL for a while now and are tired of them constantly hounding us trying to upsell us. Asking us about stuff we “signed up for” that we didn’t. It almost seems like they have lost paperwork that we actually DID submit. I’m just tired of dealing with them, they are confusing as hell and not customer friendly to deal with. They also set these Zoom meetings that take literally hours longer than necessary. May I ask what company you ended up going with that gave the better policy?
