  1. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    Quite. Also, those were all (fringe) individual examples which I intentionally didn't comment on because Mr Zoat started by admitting that individually at least slavery isn't generally a good thing (altho he went on to like the reply so idk). I was specifically talking about the idea that...
  2. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    I disagree. The dehumanization implicit in slavery damages a society and both sides of the whip in irreparable ways. It might be good for building infrastructure I guess? If for some reason you care only for that metric. But beneficial for a people in general? That's way too much imperialist...
  3. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    I'm thinking this will back fire tremendously. Didn't the ability to convert people into constructs come with some sort of feedback into his own soul or something? What are the odds that while Nabu couldn't draw magic from order/chaos/ambience he might be able to do something to prepare for...
  4. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    Not necessarily. That expression, without the word kr, is very close to something racist people actually say, so it might just ring that bell. But also, a lot of writers take their prejudice into work without necessarily meaning to. The fact that it is a BLACK kr that makes people go evil in a...

    In my headcanon what was said about powerful lanterns actually means that everybody suffers from this to some degree. In the sense that souls naturally interact one another and a powerful lantern has such relation to its light that it shines through their souls and colors everyone else's souls...

    Idk if space nomadism is different somehow but AFAIK nomadism is the opposite of owning land/worlds. We developed our current concept of possession/owning lands when our ancestors stopped roaming around hunting and gathering and settled for being farmers. Which incidentally is what made war as...
  7. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    It could be some sort of weird character that each system handles differently. I'd suggest you delete the whole [url tag so you can start from scratch
  8. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    I would also like to know that, but I'm guessing it's going to be revealed as a plot device.
  9. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    So... qwa-bomb followed by the Reach swipping by with a cloned brain would be a fairly effective way to abduct the SI, right? And I can't think of any counters to this, as he wouldn't even show up in Hade's Realm at first. I wonder if that's going to be a plot point...

    Hah! That's fair. Suffice it to say that I'm excited and curious about how that's going to play out. :p
  11. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    I'm wondering.. Mr Zoat, how are you defining the concept of technology in regards to this god's domain? I'm asking because it can be defined as broadly as 'the instrumentalization of a thing'/'means to an end', in a way that would also include A LOT. It'd encapsulate weapons/martial arts...

    Well, there is a Texan-robot sized gun hanging on the wall so the story going that direction wouldn't be that surprising.
  13. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    Who is this Sam Grayven brought with him? My memory is not very good with names and there wasn't much characterization to help me remind.

    Unless he wanted to... you know, use seismic sensors to detect possible incoming attacks.
  15. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    So what you are saying is that there is a sort of Warp after all?

    if a character with a much lower power level said it could be done, why couldn't Hinon had found a way?

    Also: a lot of idle souls nearby that could possibly be a decent anchor to the dreaming
  18. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    Or intruduce some kind of technology that allows/nudge them to cross that bridge between "other" they seem to respect too much to even look at. Empathy/telepathy comes to mind. There is a Brazilian concept called "Lugar de fala" which I've seen being referred to as 'standpoint theory' (but a...

    Isn't this it, though? Jokes aside, this is an exploration on the subject of desire literally dressed as a super hero. It is one of the things that got me into reading it.
  20. With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

    On the subject of construct armies, when OLC was first being set up I was thrilled to see what other novel ways to OL than we knew from our OL. Even Dox 'pressing a button without looking' feels odd to me. I don't know that much about the comics but from what I have seen of him I would have...
