Log #3

I needed glass.

So I sailed… past the seven oceans… to reach the river right behind where I live.

Found a really tall mountain with holes in its side. Definitely not a Chekhov’s gun that I’ll venture into someday.

Collected some sand and, on the way back, stumbled upon a massive pumpkin patch. Took what I could and headed home.

Smelted the sand into glass. Thanks to that, my house is close to completion now.

I still live in the caves, though, so it’s always a hassle every morning, driving out the creepers that spawn inside my house. Buggers.

They explode 50% of the time, all the time.

But my hatred isn’t for them. It’s for the skeletons.

Bane of my existence, those scrawny fucks.

Do they use sniper scopes? Stormtroopers got nothing on them.

Anyway...

I made a copper golem. His name is Co’poral Coppy Coppa. He’s a copper who arrests robbers, retired, took a bullet to the knee (do they even have knees?), and now works at my logistics facility, aka the storage room.

He’s a bit of a dumbass, but I love him. If you hate him, I don’t know what I’ll do, but it’s not gonna be pretty.

A man wandering the vast sunny windy and sandy desert plains, hungry and thirsty, it was his 30th day stranded in the middle of nowhere, all of his water, drank it all yesterday.

His hope fleeting, he sees a small shack over yonder.

He steeled himself and marched towards the shack.

Slamming the door open, he finds that it is a small, under maintained diner, a woman behind the counter, the smell of meat being cooked lingering in the air.

He didn't know where he was, nor what language the woman spoke. So he tried his best.

"Ana ga'an." No reaction.

"Sono affamato."

"Gutom Ako."

"Harahetta uh.... Onaka suita."

"Ana joo'an."

"Tengo Hambre..."

No matter what language he spoke, the woman couldn't understand.

He pointed at his stomach and rubbed it.

The woman nodded, and spoke in perfectly clear English. "You could've started with that."

Exorcist: "Between you and me... I'd probably ditch the voodoo woodoo sudowoodo, and get yourself a security defence sigil."

Client: "That's my great grandmother! She inhibited our orchard to protect us! Who the hell even are you?"

Exorcist: "I'm Mole, Chief of Sigil Security and Ghost Groundskeeping (not really). We snip intruders and keep your plants alive. Do you want your Gramma in a porcelain pot?"

I have a theory. The title of it is "Star Platinum is the Joestar Bloodline Emergency Button."

Star Platinum gains or copies powers, the moment the entire bloodline is in trouble.

During part 3, every single Joestar unfit for battle will die from getting overwhelmed by their stands.

Holly, kid Josuke (part 4), and kid Giorno.

If Dio wins, Jotaro and Joseph dies as well. Meaning, if Jotaro fails, the Joestar Bloodline will cease to exist. That's why Star Platinum can do bullshit such as Star Finger, and Star Platinum: The World, both abilities that weren't a part of his initial skillet, because they were on the edge of extinction.

Star Finger was created, during the encounter with the Orangutan, with the stand Strength, a huge ship. The Orangutan was strong enough to almost kill Jotaro, and so Star Platinum evolves, his fingers can stretch, allowing him to fight back.

"how come did star Platinum not copy Yoshikage Kira's power? Or at the very least, develop a counter?"

Giorno is already strong enough at that time. If Josuke and Jotaro and Joseph dies in Morioh, the bloodline would still continue in Giorno, and in Holly, and in Jolyne (Jolyne is already a kid in Part 4).

"Why didn't it work on Part 6?"

Essentially, the universe will go on a reset, the Bloodline would still be there after the reset and didn't feel the need to develop survival adaptions.

Same with DIO. Time Stop is a really deadly power, and with no way to counter it, Star Platinum develops the same power.

When you daydream about your story and it doesn’t magically write itself onto the page:

[infinitecountabledarkness]

W-why am I seeing too many Jayvik posts on my feed? I'm not even an Arcane fan. Does Tumblr know I need my daily dose of steamy stuff?

[writers-bane]

[infinitecountabledarkness]

Same!!!! I keep remaking them in my mind until either I forget and remake them again, or write half of it on somewhere, and then promptly forget where I wrote them on.

A: "Life is meaningless."

B: "No? Life is... Absurd."

A: "Yes, that too. Life as a concept is both meaningless and absurd. It's illogical. If one were a god, would you make beings that would destroy, modify, and process your works? Beings that think themselves of god? It's unthinkable."

B: "Not unless you're lonely."

A: "...right, but as humans... We don't even know who our creators are. Would you really be less lonely around people who don't acknowledge, see, or know you?"

[infinitecountabledarkness]

A: "You accuse me of being evil? What, just because I casted "evil blast" and black lighting shot out my finger tips that removed our enemies out of existence, I'm evil now? I'll have you know, the esteemed wizard who invented the spell, Nottatall Eevel, is a highly respected mage who made life-changing works that the world has benefitted to."

B: "if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it's a duck."

A: "I'm not a duck though."

B: "You've been hiding your identity since we hired you. Tell me your name then."

A: "Uhh... Er... I am.... Notta.... Bad...guy... Notta Badguy. Yup. That's my name. Notta Badguy."

C: "Well, name checks out."

B: Then, how come are you using "Bone Melt" too, if you're not evil?

A: "Well, it's on the grimoire I found, Notanecronomicon. It's a good book, and a good book."
