Squee!

[Marri]

Trials is wonderful and you are wonderful and Diaeresis is wonderful and oh man Sithvette <3

[Alicorn]

I've been really enjoying Occlus in general. Is she portable?

[Diaeresis]

in theory, i think so.

Yes, the verdict was, down would be in, on such a sphere. But it would be so large that down would also crush you. To appear flat to an observer, the distance to the horizon would have to be at least a hundred miles, which implied a sphere with a radius so great - he calculated - down would be the pressure of ten minutes' swim straight down in the ocean; no Elf could walk on it.

This is amazing!

(Also how in the Hells of Iron do they know gravity? They're smart, but gravity's hard. I'm guessing they've never set up an experiment to measure G, even if they'd be better at it than Cavendish was, and they definitely don't know the density of the alleged round planets....)

They probably took a random rock and assumed that was a planet's density.

the canon (siege, not fanfic)

This disambiguation is not actually necessary. Large tubes are cannon, truths about fictions are canon.

I thought I was the only one to use the “proper” plural for cannon.

Also, it is important to note that both of them destroy ships.

Deekin is a hilarious character. Some of my favorite lines:

for past few years Deekin has been wandering underground cavern system full of real dickbags, and Deekin have baby on board so crossbow finger gets kind of twitchy

Humans still frequently dicks, but drow really take cake on statistical likelihood

glowiness not very information-dense communicative metric

Whoops, already posted this in the wrong thread before remembering that this one is a thing, but:

Gold Bellflowers! I am greatly (possibly inordinately) pleased about this.

[pedromvilar]

This thread makes me happy :D

[jalapeno_dude]

What is the opposite of squee? The Aether in Valinor thread is making me feel that very effectively. Holy shit. Nice job!
