Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.
Rational, according to the brain that (as mentioned above) is lying to you, all the time.
Your like/dislike of people is predicated on your brain taking note of factors and then telling you "I like this person" without ever letting you know why. Height, weight, distance between the eyes...
Your own brain lies to you all the time. All the time. It fucks with how you see the world, and how you see people, on a daily basis. Once you accept that, then 'liking someone due to shards screwing with your head' is a lot easier to forgive and go with.

Lisa sees her best...
Here's the thing. He's not using it on Scion, any more than he's using it on the entire universe. He's using it on himself.
It's predicting the effect of his actions on the world around him if he does one thing, or another. Gaining information.
Now, you can't say that Scion makes it...
Especially given that in canon they were portrayed as both putting effort toward it.
Because even if you roll dice with one in a thousand chances of getting it right ten thousand times, there's nothing to say that the correct combination will ever come up. Also, GU may or may not take well to...
Given that they were still together two years later, and they had a comfortable and playful relationship, yes, Stable and happy.
Sabah had her issues. Lily had hers. They each accepted that. Their relationship worked - in canon.
Zach!Emma, just after taking down an Entity:

Zach, seriously? We're not even eating it, really.
And?
Sigh. I give up.
Come on, you know you want to.
I do not.
Yeah, you do.
Fine.

And for the finishing touches.
Don't you dare -...
Armsmaster's surname is Wallis, not Wallace.
But apart from that, magnificent closure.
Kudos.
Also: love her base powerset Trump Card sees what you did there, but hey, I think it's cool. :D
So only other people are allowed to cite my works as having happened?
Personally, I considered Taylor getting the If it's You, It's Okay brainmod to be a perfectly reasonable solution to the situation. Just having her turn around one day and saying, "You know, I think I'll be gay now, for...
Look, when someone goes, "Wow, this story did this, it's so original!" and I'm thinking, "Well, it was when I did it", am I supposed to just not say anything?
I'm taking nothing away from Amelia when I say this. It's an awesome story, and I love it, a lot. It went in a totally different...
