This is the best song I've ever heard. I'll be listening to it for days, weeks, and I hope one of you lot remembers to play it at my funeral.

That's kinda mean, but I have to admit that I chuckled.

Capy, I had just assumed that you were writing on a device that was autocorrecting your throughs to troughs.

@Muttonhawk

I don't like public corrections, but I had mentioned it to Cappy ages ago via PM and he seems to have forgotten. Hopefully that's the last we'll see of that much-feared trough. If it makes a comeback, I'll consider Cappy's troughs a lost cause and will hand it over to Grammarly-Nazi Vec xp

@Kho God fucking dammit, I feel despair enough over Mr. Frozen Insect up there. Please tell me that's a comedy line from somebody else. Please tell me you're not THAT amazingly funny and original...

@Dawnscroll

I...
I have half a mind to say I copied it from somewhere now ^^'
While I won't give a list of who the most skilled writers are, I think there are some very good writers in this RP, and pretty much everyone has a terrific imagination. And of course, there is no doubt that Termite (and you, amongst others) are gifted writers who boost the quality of this RP and make it a delight to read new posts despite the length.

Man, what the hell was the Queen thinking when she invented English?

@Double Capybara

@Double Capybara I think it may have been something along the lines of:

'I must create a language which will affect my subjects so greatly that they will complain of its effect for generations to come, and their once-affection for me shall become very not so. My heirs will curse the air I breathed, this entire isle will wish my mother and father never walked down the aisle, and they'll all cry aloud, "that should not have been allowed!", and someone else may say, "why'd no one alter the Archbishop's speech at the altar? Make it so they never could marry and bring this demoness to life! Or when each was to give their assent, someone should have ascended the steps and demanded the marriage be halted. It's odd no one did!" and another will reply, "they were probably all awed by the majesty of it.
"Ah, yes, these royal marriages tend to be awe-full, don't they?"
"That's what I always say! They're terribly awful! And for what? To see a couple of bald old men in dresses and bolder young men on horses trounce around all day."
"Oh yes, they make quite the band when they all stand together."
"Should all be banned in my opinion."
"What, even that one what plays the stringy-thing?"
"You mean the Bard?"
"Him too, should be barred from every playing! What a terrible racket he makes, would smash him with a racket of I could."
"Oh come on now, a bat would be better."
"A bat? Them metal ones Batman uses? They could come in handy too I guess, if we're trying to kill the man."
"I thought we were..."
"But where would we bury him?"
"Down in the wood underneath the big berry bush."
"I'm down for that then! Nothin' better than beating bards!"
"I love to batter them silly."
"Yeah. Wife battered me silly with some batter yesterday."
"Bloody 'ell mate, why'd you not batter her back? You're the team's batter after all."
"Couldn't do that, she had a point. I forgot to get the butter you see."
"Well, if she was battering you on that basis, I can see why. You should've had your bases covered - she got the better of you there. You should've done better you fool."
"Damn you! Leave me be."
"I mean, if you knew she was gonna batter you, shoulda given her a wide berth. You know they stop acting cute after they give birth a few times."
"Yeah, ok, I blew it yesterday."
"No need to feel all blue about it mate, lets go for a beer in the bier."
"You mean the pier, right? I ain't going near no bier."

And they will quickly forget that I am the source of their linguistic misery, they'll get the canons and fire them at one another without thinking who it was that established the linguistic cannon! Thus I shall illude them while my wiles elude them, and I'll allude to them that their friends are the reason! CHAOS REIGNS! (But really, it will be me, even beyond death, at the reins!)'

Gotta love homonyms.

Kho looked through his binoculors, and through them he saw some sheep eating from a trough.
'They'll get through that trough,' Kho thought to himself, 'so I better go get another trough before they get through that first trough.'
But despite his efforts, and though he did his best to get another trough before the sheep got through the first trough, them sheep were quick and had finished the first trough before Kho came back with the second.
'You lot sure can get through a trough or two, can't you.'

Don't get down on yourselves guys. The issue of plagiarism isn't really as big as I made it sound, there's a huge amount of original stuff going on - even with stuff that's inspired by other works, the storylines that are developing are anything but plagiarism. While I doubt this will be the next LotR or GoT, it can be for us!

Yeah, one does not simply rip Space Marines and get away with it :(
Dem Damn Victors

When we enter the space age they'll be called Space Vectors. Wait, wha-? *mind. blown.*

I admit that one of the most difficult things about Jvan's creations is visualising them. I just can't seem to. I imagine the Fae as something close to butterflies with needles. Them djinn-eaters are just horrendous blobs of snake-like flesh with wings and lots of weird holes in places.

Sculptors I can somewhat understand visually, but I guess that's because I imagine whatever race they originally were and add lottsa Jvanic stuff to that. The intricacy of Jvanic creatures also makes it more difficult, since they have all these geometric patterns and whatnot. So I have resigned myself to imagining small, medium, big and massive blobs of flesh with varying degrees of very dangerous bodily weapons.

@Muttonhawk I was extremely unimpressed when I found out, but I didn't want to put you on the spot and make you everyone's laughing stock. But alas, you insist on so being.
