Head-canon: Kili has the smallest beard because she’s a girl, which brings new meaning to the flirt “I could have anything down my pants”/”Or you could have nothing at all.”
To be precise it started as a straight up twilight fanfic. But she couldn’t publish the book that way due to copyright, so she removed the sparklepires (I’ll never acknowledge them as vampires) and werewolves, changed the characters and just made them a powerful business man and some woman.
That actually would be a good test wouldn’t it? Technically kill him, but with the ability to bring him back if he doesn’t respawn. Course that would take the fun out of what’s probably coming
For the layman a great idea. For the professionals in hospitals who aren’t sure if they can save someone if someone gets a heart attack under their care surrounded by top of the line technology not so much. The chance on terrible trauma, (more) brain damage or simply death is too big. That, and as you rightfully say it wouldn’t be interesting story wise. We have a great setup for an internal conflict that could span several stories. Will he continue fighting crime to prevent deaths similar to his sister? What if he gets hurt, or maimed?

Hearts are regularly stopped on purpose during surgery. Mostly for work on the heart and its surrounding vessels. Its not a bad plan, but the real issue is find a doctor that would go along with it. Not likely.

You take a mortal man
And put him in control
Watch him become a God
Watch people’s heads a-roll
“Yes, I gambled all our cash away to an old man in a tree. That’s the bad news. The good news, however, is that I made most of it back by selling him all our items!” …If you know where that’s from, I love you.
I was thinking 8 Bit, too… kind of seems like something that Fighter would say to Black Mage, right before Black Mage tries to stab him in the back and doesn’t pierce through his armor. And of course, the man in the tree is Thief in disguise or something.
Unless the ship gets destroyed because it wasn’t repaired.
I didn’t play Dredge, though. Do upgrades of damaged hull make it less likely to be destroyed?
Alternatively, is partial repair possible in that game? (like, paying per repairing a point of damage or so, if you don’t have money for full repair)
Upgrades only allow for better equipment (which allows for faster travel, more efficient fishing, and less hazards with lights) and more inventory space. It does not increase the HP of the boat. However, repairs are pretty cheap, a single low risk haul of fish or trinkets should be enough to cover the costs. And grinding for cash isn’t all that burdensome either. You just need to pay attention to the in game time and make it to safe waters before night comes. The trick is to have a plan for what you want to accomplish in a day – be… Read more »
still a better love story than twilight?
can you think of something that is not a better love story than twilight?
50 Shades of Grey
Which started as a Twilight fanfic
Ipso facto, a worse love story as it’s an imitation
Tauriel and Kili from the Hobbit.
Head-canon: Kili has the smallest beard because she’s a girl, which brings new meaning to the flirt “I could have anything down my pants”/”Or you could have nothing at all.”
Gimli: “It’s true you don’t see many dwarf women, and in fact they are so alike in voice and appearance, that they are often mistaken for dwarf men.”
Aragorn (whispers to Eowyn): “It’s the beards.”
50 Shades of Gray, though ironically that was legit just a Twilight fanfic without the vampires and werewolves…

i prefer to think of them as glittery leaches
They grow sparkly when they such blood, and sunlight doesn’t hurt them. They’re 100% leechmen.
Romeo and Juliet, there’s like no internal conflict it sucks.
Even the Lorena Bobbitt story is a better love story than Twilight
Oh, come on! That was a funny comment! Who’s downvoting this?
I love to see two friends bonding together
He’s actually trying to stop his heart for a minute to see if his respawn triggers.

Megadeth – Symphony of Destruction <3
Spank my butt and call me Sally if I’ve ever seen a more accurate analogy for a streamer and their audience interacting with each other.
You know what they say – “Chat reflects the streamer.”
zip zap zip zap zip zap
Wha…. what is the zipping sound from?!
Charging up and the swish of delivery.
Ah, the eternal struggle of inventory management.
“Yes, I gambled all our cash away to an old man in a tree. That’s the bad news. The good news, however, is that I made most of it back by selling him all our items!” …If you know where that’s from, I love you.
It sounds like 8-Bit Theater, but I’m pretty sure it isn’t… Sounds vaguely familiar, like it’s from a different videogame webcomic of the time.
I was thinking 8 Bit, too… kind of seems like something that Fighter would say to Black Mage, right before Black Mage tries to stab him in the back and doesn’t pierce through his armor. And of course, the man in the tree is Thief in disguise or something.
VG cats? Sounds like a classic Leo move.
To be fair…upgrades ARE a better long-term investment, as you’ll need to repair less in the future that way.

You don’t own any livestock
That we know of
The guy is never going to outlive the penguin allegations, is he?
What penguin?
It puts the wood on the hull or it gets the prod again.
Note to self. Get a cattle prod.
Tim trying really hard to convince us that Scott isn’t going to be like the secret ultimate supervillain by the end of this 😀
What game is Ethan playing? Is this a real game?
Yes. It’s called Dredge. It’s a fishing game. With nightmarish horrors.
According to Scott a couple pages ago: Dredge.
I know it’s a real game, but haven’t gotten around to playing it so don’t know how accurate this strip is.
I picked Dredge up because of this strip. It’s been pretty cool so far. Thank you, guys!
Juuuust evil enough!
