Wouldn't surprise me, actually

Really though I'm glad it's like this. A legitimate pitcher's duel is one of the most interesting and exciting things to watch

Darvish struck out the side in the 7th to bring his count to 10 on the night

Wouldn't be surprised if Tanaka did the exact same thing in the top of the 8th to bring himself to the same total LOL

Luna sighs, realizing that the fighting is over. Her [Injury] was proof that she was still alive. Proof that she won. Lionel's corpse was problematic, though. The sheer existence of an allied corpse meant that she didn't win hard enough to keep everybody alive. So she took a moment of silence out of respect for the dead.

And then she was over it. People dying was a fact of life. If things had gone slightly differently it would've been her instead. That's why it wasn't worth getting hung up on. Still though, couldn't have done it without him and everybody else.

Well anyways, now that that was done, next order of business for Luna was exploring the Control Room. Sure, she'd done a hell of a lot of smashing things in this room already, but it was still part of the dungeon. Who knows what managed to get through the melee unscathed?

Oh...

Looks like all the allies bitched out...

Leaving Luna all alone in a room full of insect things...

So the only remaining question...



Was which one should I crush first?

Stupid question, of course.

ALL OF THEM.

Luna continues crushing the melee

Luna will begin giggling incessantly at the idea of getting to cut down some hostiles, and prepare to open the door. She'll grip her axe in one hand and raise a leg to kick the door in, but restrains herself when she realizes she has company.

"Backup? Perfect timing. You're free to do as you want as long as you stay out of my way"

Well, even though these guys were ultimately expendable, they did increase her chances of survival. So Luna was happy to have them around. And after acknowledging them, she will proceed to open the damn door and charge in, aiming to enjoy herself by cutting down as many of the enemies as possible.

Yeah, this passage looked real nice. If your definition of nice was A WHOLE LOT OF FUCKING NOTHING. Like geeze, who built this dungeon anyway? Why would you even do something like this? Well, better play this at least kinda safe. It'd just suck to get lost in here. So Luna will take a quick moment to mark the ground with her axe, indicating the direction she came from. You know, just in case she gets turned around or forgets. Without any regard to whether it might confuse other people.

Then she'll continue on down Passage S with minimal regard for Carwen

I'm at UT Arlington. Wanted to go to SMU or UT (Austin), but $$$. Got mad scholarships to SMU (over $35k), but when the school costs $70k a year and you gotta live on campus the first two years... scholarships hardly matter unless they're full tuition/full ride. And of course Austin doesn't give money hardly at all.

Yeah, I figured you were either at Arlington or Dallas. Both have pretty solid business schools, and you wouldn't have gone wrong with either. I really can't recommend SMU to anybody unless they're part of the rich, connected families and they really, really want the name prestige. I say this as somebody who has a couple friends currently attending that university.

Also Jazz and Blues are totally close enough that you would fit in at UNT if you tried imo. But you made the 'safe' choice for sure.

I'm going into business, and I do have good interest in it. What I REALLY want to do with my life is perform and record music, but my kind of music isn't something that a college teaches (at least not any college that I can afford to go to and isn't halfway across the country). So I'm quite alright with taking my second interest and turning it into a professional career if my music never turns into anything.

Just for the record, UNT has one of the top rated music schools in the country, especially if you're interested in Jazz. Pretty sure Denton can't possibly be more than a 90 minute drive from whichever part of DFW you are/were in, too.

Though just between you and me, if you're still in the Dallas area you're probably at a pretty solid school for a business program. Not a top-tier one by any means, but definitely solid =)


Edit: Whoops, misread your post and missed that you were talking about specific styles of music. Point about UNT's program being legitimately top-tier still stands, but it's less meaningful to you probably.

Luna will glance around at the full group now that everybody's in one place, but she won't settle on that for too long. No point, really. Instead, she'll turn towards Passage Q and begin exploring it.

You may need Drain-O. If that's still not enough, maybe try a loose ribbon tied to a stick you can wave around.

Seriously speaking, you may actually want drain-o or similar if the cat sheds at all. Hair might block the drain once you get her out

(Disclaimer: I'm not an expert, but like 10 years ago we had a clogged drain problem that I'm pretty sure my parents said was caused by dog hair in the shower drain)

I might write flavor text tomorrow if I remember to and feel like it

But Luna will spin the roulette wheel because the statue is a jackass but she's also not allowed to break it

She also won't ask for the ribbon dress even though it's probably kind of cute and she'd probably want it because asking for free stuff is for jerks and Remulel probably isn't enough of a bad guy to warrant being a jerk

Also I tried to go look because I really do think ME2 Mafia is archived to see a scum VI game.

It isn't on http://regaro.altervista.org/

and I thought the second archive was lolreg.altervista.org but that link isn't working for me.

What am I doing wrong?

@Reg @Regaro ?

This has been fixed

To clarify, the reason this happens is because Altervista suspends/archives sites that haven't been logged into in a while. I don't know what the actual timespan for that is, but if this happens again with either archive just @ me and I'll fix it as soon as I can.

Luna watches the group begin to disperse. She glances around, looking rather annoyed. Seeing as everybody was splitting off in different directions, it seemed clear to her that nobody had any concrete idea of what to do or where to go.

Pathetic

Having nothing better to do, Luna will examine the incomplete statue. She'll also quit noisily dragging her axe around, and instead carry it like a normal person. She's pretty sure that she's made her point by making so much noise with it while approaching the central group.

My mom DOES live in town

I've actually considered asking my mom to move in with me in the past but haven't brought it up.
Also I sorta like my single, isolated life. >_>. Going halvsies on the bills would be a god send though...hmm...

Whats the social opinion on having a parent live with you, anyways?

also I'm turnin 30 this year

If your finances are in that bad of shape and your relationship with her is even remotely decent/she's willing, please do this. You'll lose out on the independence of living alone, but you'll have so much less stress from your reduced expenses and by saving money you'll have the ability to, as mentioned, get a secured credit card and start rebuilding credit.

Once you get that settled, if you want to be serious about your credit (you should), pull a credit report and make sure there's nothing on it that isn't actually you.

Of course the party could have gone with a no confidence motion, but the optics look poor because it would suggest in-fighting among the party.

Yeah, I figured optics was the reason they didn't go that route, but I was curious as to whether it was an option if you got somebody who didn't give a shit about that involved.

Congratulations to BKSheikah, winner of the BYIG Guru Contest

Relatedly, can somebody more familiar with UK Politics explain the mechanics of a No Confidence vote to me? I did a quick search and could only find that the current government has to resign/dissolve if it passes, but I couldn't find anything on the mechanics of the vote itself. Is it simple majority, supermajority, or what? What makes it different from the 2/3 vote that was actually used, aside from the political statement involved?
