There's a new critter who's just moved into the compound. Please ignore him if he attempts to bum a cigarette from you. He's trying to quit, and the second-hand smoke aggravates Ginger's asthma something fierce. Please don't enable his bad habits!*

*He knows where the smoking section is. He's just not willing to pass the Kraken to get to it.

I'm really embarrassed by how impatient I am for Adventure Time to start up again.

Re: Things you wouldn't admit unanon

[anonymous]

Isn't it back like next week? I was surprised it was coming back so soon.

Re: Things you wouldn't admit unanon

[anonymous]

Yes, that's why I'm so embarrassed. It's not even been a long wait! I feel like a little kid the week before christmas!

Re: WIP thread - Brainwashing

[anonymous]

I think the logic behind this one went something like: watch Winter Soldier -> walk out of theater with deep need to write brutal brainwashing fic -> don't want to write for Winter Soldier -> do I have a tiny fandom in need of fic where brainwashing would fit? - yes -> oops started yet another fic.

[If only I could get assigned to write this fandom in exchanges I would be SET FOR LIFE.]The first time they pulled the human out of the conditioning unit, unarmed, armorless, and naked, he crushed a guard's head into slime and shards of chitin with one hand. Four troopers had to wrestle him back into the unit's restraints and he screamed the entire time: nothing of interest, not even curses, just a wordless roar that ended only when the unit's door whirred shut. That was the point it ended for the Pfhor, anyway. Tycho's sensors within and without the unit could still pick up alternating shrieks and hoarse, ragged breathing until the machinery reactivated and gagged him while the program ran again

Re: WIP thread - Brainwashing

SOB. Why such a terrible person, Tycho? I love his POV here; he's got the perfect amount of creepy detachment, especially in that "nothing of interest" comment. It makes for a great contrast to Durandal, who does care somewhat (even if he won't admit it - we're onto you, Durandal). Also, it's nice to get a little (terrifying!) bit of insight into Pfhor military culture. Just... so, so, so many brainwashed cyborg feelings.

Re: WIP thread - Brainwashing

TYCHO IS SO TERRIBLE. Sometimes I think, "man, maybe I should give him a break, he's been through some stuff too," and then I read him saying things like "Should I make Durandal open doors again for a living?" and I'm instantly filled with rage. Tycho is the worst. :(

I ALSO HAVE MANY BRAINWASHED CYBORG FEELINGS. Oh nooooooo oh yessssssssss. (I'm currently procrastinating on finishing this by working on something else, but I might slip another section into the next post's WIP thread...)

Because sharing is caring.

The Baby Sparrows agree.

Fallen London

[anonymous]

Perils of the Nadir... I had a question once, I think...

Re: Fallen London

[anonymous]

Speaking of Nadir, I finished the 'intimate with a secular missionary/revolutionary firebrand' storyline and now I apparently need to go to the cave of Nadir. Only I can't find it or any mention of it anywhere. Do I just need to level up my stats or is there something else?

Re: Fallen London

[anonymous]

Did you open the route to the Forgotten Quarter? If you have, you need to gather the necessary stuff, and then go to the Expedition as usual. You need 60 Supplies, Eyeless Skull and Archaeologist stat at 5, I think.

Re: Fallen London

[anonymous]

I've got the route but no Expedition, which I'm assuming is a storylet? I guess it's a case of needing to level up some more. Thanks!
