Being truly on my own is a bit of a weird feeling. It's never really happened.

Let it never be said that sometimes extreme brevity isn't the most appropriate post, though. Everything is a tool.

So I've been planning out non-combat stuff to do in general, since as discussed the RP needs to have a lot of that.
I expect Nono to have to carry Saber out of whatever restaurant we end up in. Or simply drag her.
Honestly, I expect Saber to turn off the magicky buffs and just get really pouty when she loses at trivial physical challenges, if she does something after eating. Because she's a small, skinny 15 year old girl under it. XD
I'm wondering how long until Guts needs a new sword because he's hit something that it: A) can't cut, and B) is durable enough to shatter it.
A several hundred pound mass of iron won't just shatter when it hits something. On top of that, the Dragonslayer's been enhanced to cut through magical stuff. Guts isn't gonna need a new sword anytime soon. If anything, I could see it getting augmented if I run into a good enough smithy.
When I say 'anything', I mean 'any of the numerous things in the universe that are probably harder than Apostle flesh'. Much like taking that thing to a cliff face: it's going to get wrecked sooner or later, even if it deforms before it shatters. Though, admittedly, iron is a lot less brittle than steel.
Apostle flesh is actually quite durable; most mundane weapons have a hard time hurting them. When Guts took on his first few bottom ranked not even apostle demons, a normal greatsword wasn't enough; only the Dragonslayer had the mass necessary to cleave through it. Actually I can probably find Guts cleaving through rock and other hard materials without scuffing up the Dragonslayer. In fact, I recall he sliced through the hide of a dragon made out of crystals in one chapter.
Oh? I've had trouble getting past Rosalie. Up to which point, he was just utilising its normal properties: the edge might not've been that sharp, but sheer weight would cut through almost anything. By that standard, smashing it into rock would chip away at the rock and wreck the blade utterly. Of course, he didn't have the Dragonslayer for the Band of the Hawk era, and Rosalie's right after that. The whole Black Swordsman mess beforehand is pretty meaningless. XD
The Dragonslayer is relatively sharp, which combined WITH its mass makes it an amazing cleaving weapon. It hasn't taken any notable damage in the entire manga. Actually, if you're just out of the Band of the Hawk, you're way, WAY behind on the shit the Dragonslayer has cut through. Like the crystal dragon. Since then it's gotten tempered by Goto, and killed so many apostles it's becoming a magical weapon that can hurt ethereal stuff. The blade taking damage from hitting a rock would count for a normal sized sword, but this sword is far larger than anything a man should use, and that size makes it more durable.
I know I'm behind. I was enormously behind the crap Griffith's pulled off when I got that far, I just lost steam at that point. Knew about the armour before I even started, at least.:P I suppose I should stop assuming that Miura stopped applying logical metallurgy to the sword after 'make it out of iron because that isn't brittle'. Or at least got bored of it later on.

Hmm... I wonder if that has anything to do with its name...
Nah, it was made to fight a dragon. Never did get to do that before Guts got it.

uhhh ... I like pie. Pie is nice.
Prefer savoury pie to sweet pie. But I've only made sweet. Hmm.
So, guys. Chocolate milk, am I right?
Hot chocolate is better.
Now I'm so confused that I'm not even.
Superman is hungry?

Red Truth is true but can be worded in ways that obscure the truth. Blue Truth could be true, but is only a possibility and is not necessarily the truth. Red Truth is, say... "There are three dead bodies in this room." Blue Truth is "They were all killed by the same person." Red is true, but doesn't tell the whole story in this case. Blue is possibly true, but is only a possibility.
So they're just observations. Well how can that do this:
@Mtntopview: The Red Key is still a sword that can do a number on most mundane materials. And without the nerfs it has in the RP it's extremely broken since it can do things like cut distance and stuff. With nerfs it's... very powerful but only broken to Uminekoverse things. Full-power Red Key is REALLY broken but it won't be an issue in this RP since I don't think Uminekoverse stuff will be coming up. Also arguing with Dlanor can potentially be used to execute you if I'm remembering properly, given how the Red Key works. The Umineko universe is straaaaange.
Because Umineko is utterly incomprehensible, unless you feel like sitting through the entire thing. :P
AKA: the red key makes no sense. Don't think about it.
