If I were a super, I’d probably be the kind that goes nutso and hurts a bunch of people. Un/fortunately, no Cold Light has wanted me so far ;~;

[ee76q]

I’ve heard of Cold Light chasers.

They try to hunt down Cold Lights based on statistical models and things.

Given how randomly they fall, I suspect they have significantly more money than sense.

[irradiantmadness]

It's like the people who drive after tornadoes.

But dumber.

[abjectadmiration]

Can anyone explain to me why we haven’t just nuked Duchess Epidermis yet?

[ee76q]

Something something environmental concerns?

[abjectadmiration]

Mhm, but you know. A blast site can’t move. A blast site can’t expand its territory. A blast site can be safely worked in...

[irradiantmadness]

Remember. This is DUCHESS EPIDERMIS. She's a psychotic mass murderer. She gave up her humanity when she made a throne on those bodies. The thing I'm worried about is if she would somehow live or deflect it. She'd start walking towards people and the bodies would just stack and stack and stack.

I’m so goddamn pumped for the new game from Excess Harmony’s creators. I hear it’s got weird hermetic magic and stuff.

[viridianshade]

Wait, there’s a new game coming out? Oh man, I loved Excess Harmony. Do you have a name?

[irradiantmadness]

All that's been shown from the ARG is a bunch of alchemical papers on a wall with the letters Q, N, and A being formed by the proper arrangement of them.

Knowing those wily weasels there's going to be more, I know it.

Also, I really have to know, man. What is it like having superpowers? I've always kind of wanted to know what it's like to have that kind of power just...there.

[irradiantmadness]

I really should post on the Chiasm Forums more. If only they weren’t moderated by actual and literal fascists.

[kilodactyl]

Hey I only work for fascist governments some of the time.

[irradiantmadness]

THEY'VE FOUND ME

[abjectadmiration]

I wonder if there’s any correlation between Cold Light showers and 564 events. Location or time-wise.

[kilodactyl]

I believe there have already been independent studies on this, I thought most of the information became readily available online after it was declassified. I haven’t seen a correlation from what data I’ve seen. I’m sure you could find some tinfoil hats to disagree with me though.

[irradiantmadness]

I really don't think 564 causes Cold Light showers. I don't want to consider that possibility. I think they've been close because maybe 564 can predict them and is trying to maximize damage? Who knows, really.

[irradiantmadness]

I also like how nobody considers that these people leading the Benefactor's League are superhumans too. It's a little freaky considering that any of them could snap at any time, or be in the midst of some doomsday plot.

That guy Inquisitor is kind of extreme, but he brings up some valid points. Even though superhumans run the show at the League, the Syndicate is possibly the scariest thing I could think of.

Think about how much of the world they could be pulling the strings on, and they seem to just get bigger...

What if they got their hands on some mass surveillance superhuman? On someone like Cindersoul or worse that they can control? I think that they're poised to strike, and with muscle like they have behind them I don't think they'd be stopped easily...

Or my tinfoil hat is slowly constricting my brain.
