Oh this is just too good, which do I go for first, the jokes about America's bad economy or how they're in debt several trillion dollars. Such hard life choices.

But if I want to feed the beast that is our capitalist economy?

I don't care if I'm wasting money there. If I'm ordering pizza I've already failed in saving money, when there's a cafeteria that provides to us. Granted at specific hours that don't cater to a person with a hyperactive metabolism and is a night owl who doesn't sleep.

IF I WANT TO BLOW MONEY ON FAST, GREASY, PREMADE PIZZA. I WILL! >:O

BECAUSE THAT IS THE AMERICAN WAY!

Pizza's not that hard to make. It takes about an hour to prepare the dough, it has to sit and rise for one to two hours but after that you can freeze large amounts of it and including defrosting it only takes a half hour or so to prepare and cook.

The recipes pretty simple too, yeast, salt, flour, olive oil, and water then whatever you want to put on it.

I could look up my recipe for it if you guys like.

@Prince of Seraphs

While that would be nice, I don't think I have any of those ingredients whatsoever.

I always want pizza. There's literally a Domino's minutes away from me and I have to resist the urge to blow money constantly ordering from them like I used to 5-6 years ago. Fresh ingredients for their pizzas too, because we're right in California.

-Sigh- Damn my hyperactive metabolism, constantly keeping me hungry..

@harinezumikouken

To make it worse, my favorite pizza place near me has this thing called a cinnamon pie. Literally just pizza dough with cinnamon and frosting on top so it's basically just an oversized cinnamon roll, but holy hell is it delicious. Only comes in one size though: large. Why must everything be expensive?

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Man I really want pizza now

@Abillioncats

Same. But I already spent a lot of money on groceries today and comic books the day before so I have to tell myself that I need to save my money. The temptation though... It's all too great. Someone please stop me.

Really, Shiro doesn't need anyone for his subplot. Just interested parties, be it one character or a lot of characters. I've pretty much gotten it worked out in my head. Just needs an audience.

In fact, @Lugubrious Already knows what a lot of involved characters look like to even include their weapons and Semblances.

@harinezumikouken

Hmm. Now that you mention it, Robert really does only need maybe three people at least for what I have in mind for his sub-plot. I've been focusing so much on how to get as many involved as possible that I never really considered that actually involving everyone doesn't even make much sense from a story perspective. Maybe I should start looking at this from a different angle.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Speaking of credits, I wonder if I should blow all the credits on minor upgrades to his equipment or save for a time when I can inact Shiro's subplot and take his eye develop and mature him as a character.

@harinezumikouken

I went with the latter option and now here I am with easily enough credits to start Robert's subplot... but I haven't done it yet. I can blame it on "wanting to hammer out some kinks to the story I have planned," "Robert needs to make more friends so I can get as many people involved as possible," and "we're still finishing up missions so I should wait for things to cool down first" all I want, but I believe the main reason is just me being too self-conscious and thinking that some (maybe even a majority) won't be interested enough to want to participate and we'll run into the same problem we did with the missions in the sense that everyone wants to get it over with as soon as possible and that's not fun for anyone.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Alright so I need to admit to something. After seeing Naryan's drawing of Robert a few days ago, I became inspired to write and draw my own little comic strip about the RP with plans of showing it to all of you. So I wrote a thing of what the characters of Heroes of Beacon would be like if some of them got together and played a fantasy pen-and-paper tabletop RPG like D&D or Pathfinder. I thought it was kind of funny. Next came drawing it though and well... there's a reason I haven't drawn since I was 13. Of course, that didn't stop me, I was a man on a mission. So I tried to draw one of the panels... The fact that I feel my eyes are going to bleed just looking at it and the fact that, even so, it still might be the best thing I've drawn in my entire life should be enough evidence to show why I stopped drawing in the first place. Even still, here's the drawing if anyone is interested:

Seriously, it's shit

I'm warning you

Alright, you asked for it

Yes, that is supposed to be Robert. Yes, I really did put my maximum effort into drawing this and didn't purposefully draw this badly. Yes, it seriously took me hours (not minutes and not seconds but several HOURS) just to make that.
