Hello! If you’ve gotten this far I’ve already introduced myself but, im KentMenu. Ive been rping since 2016; first on Amino, then on Discord, then on Reddit, then on Tumblr. Point being I can adapt pretty well.

Id prefer to rp on Discord, I find it to have the least amount of problems. Generally speaking I use oc’s, though very occasionally I will play oc against a cc if that seems interesting. I will match my partner’s length for responses, but prefer Semi-Lit to Literate third person.

In terms of genres I am always interested in: Fantasy, Sci-fi, Urban Fantasy, Superhero’s, Historical, Time Travel.

In terms of fandoms I am always interested in: MHA, Marvel/DC, Witcher, ATLA, PacRim

I TAKE EVERYTHING!

let's have terrible posture like mama (it turns out there's no tactical benefit)

[cephalo-podcast]

I've been relistening to TAZ: Balance again (shocker, I know), and I can't help but wonder about Merle's encounter with the Chalice.

As you probably know if you're reading this, the decision the Chalice gives him is the option to undo the moment where he grabbed the tourmaline bomb in Crystal Kingdom and lost his arm. This has always irked me a little because... Like Magnus and Taako's "Worst Moments" were both from their backstory, but Merle's worst moment is from a few months ago?

Could you imagine if instead, he was given the chance to undo Gundren being shot by the emorc so they could save Phandalin and spare his cousin? What if he got to choose not to marry Hekuba? Merle's whole thing has always been about his connections to other people. His connections to the other Bois, his connection to Pan, his ability to waddle into any situation and connect with people in a real, albeit strange way like preaching the good word of Pan to Cassedy in the mines or threatening to send a train after the Hammerheads or, less presently, meeting with John in Parley all those loops.

If Griffin had appealed to Merle's connections instead of his bad luck, would Merle have actually taken the deal? If he was told he could save his cousin, save Phandalin, and get off the path that led to him losing an arm, would he hesitate longer? Would he take the deal.

Idk. Maybe it's just the Die Hard Merle Fan in me that wishes he'd been treated more seriously, with the same gravity as the other Bois, long before Stolen Century

Now that the final novel has been released I finally let myself read all the prior ones that I've been stocking up this whole time and can I just say

THE FUCKING VALIDATIONNNNNN. THE EXONERATION!! MY BIG COMPLAINT ADDRESSED AND IN A WAY THAT ADDS SO MUCH MORE TO MERLE'S CHARACTER. MY BLORBO FINALLY GETTIN THE OATS HE ALWAYS DESERVES. THIS RULES

[dollartreemagicalgirl]

i love humans i love this site

[agender-ryland-grace]

two of us riding nowhere

[foolhearteyes]

need someone who cares about hockey more than i do to write a fic where shane is forced to retire before he feels ready and svetlana has gotten frustrated with her MHL job because team management never listens to her (due to the misogyny) so she quits and talks shane into starting a hockey analysis podcast together and it's called something like "hockey with hot people" or "puckbunnies" or "soft hands" (shane does not like this but svetlana understands the importance of branding) and it's 98% Serious Hockey Talk BUT they do have a dedicated segment called "why does ilya rozanov owe me money" wherein guests tell their worst ilya stories and after hearing them out shane and svetlana decide how much money ilya owes the guest. ilya is never invited onto the podcast.

every time i write i think about that maya angelou quote where she talks about her editor asking her why she uses semicolons instead of colons and says she has often responded by threatening to never speak to him again

[kabaks]

Have you played DEAD AIR ?

By Fiona Ruthven

DEAD AIR is a solo RPG about running a radio station after a nuclear apocalypse. The elevator pitch is Threads meets The Thick of It - DEAD AIR faces the unrelenting horror of nuclear obliteration with the grim certainty that things can always get worse.

The 48 page zine takes the form of a collection of found documents collected before and after the bombs fell. You will take on the role of station manager, alongside any other roles that you can't find wasteland survivors to fill. The job will have you spending as much time trying to make sense of ancient and conflicting broadcast guidance as you will keeping the generators running (and the wolves at bay).

The only materials required to play are a deck of playing cards, a pen and paper, and a copy of the zine. Optionally, you can record your programmes live if you have access to (even very basic) recording equipment and a desire to perform!

Have you played ?

Yes I have played it

No but I've read it

No but I've heard of it
