Chatter Box, Greeting Place and Narnia Discussion Thread 2 (Up-to-date Current Roleplayers and Rules/General Information in the third thread)

Quantum just found this :D

Awesome. Now go make it canon!

I would, but I think life and DD have plans. If they fill me in on the plan, then I can help them set it up

That appears to be a dead Caliborn. This would solve the issue of DD getting to kill him if it weren't for the fact that the Caliborns sort of stop existing when they go into the afterlife, so Calliope can't boxcars him...

Does anybody want me to make a stab dads photo/other peoples head canons dump?

That would be cool.

Karkat is a vegetarian simply because Slick is such an awful cook that everything is either burnt or raw. EVERYTHING. Even water.

Karkat’s middle name is Chip. If you can guess why, you’ll see why it makes me giggle (hint: slick thought it was hilarious)

Aradia can talk to the dead, and frequently converses with her deceased mother. Droog has no such skills, though wishes he did.

Slick and Droog met when they were seven and young Jack was stealing apples from Droog’s family orchard. They became moirails through Jack’s lack of food and Dorian’s lack of friends.

Sleuth and Dame lost their first child due to Sleuth being a vampire, and were very panicky when Kanaya was on the way.

Feferi is a genius like her parents, and is a chess champion

Vriska and Terezi are only half-sisters: Vriska’s dad is the Black King, Terezi’s dad is Crowbar

Quote :

Daven (Slick and Karkat): Vincula et Sanguis (Bonds and Blood)

Drago (Droog and Aradia): Adamans non Conterat (Diamond is not Destroyed)

Bayard: (Boxcars and Tavros): Alea Iacta Est (The Die is Cast)

Deen: (Deuce and Sollux): Risus Sanat Omnia (Laughter Heals All)

The ones meaningful to the plot:

Stewart (Sleuth and Kanaya): Lux In Tenebris (Light In Darkness)

Ivory (Pickle Inspector, Feferi and Nepeta):  Verba Corde (Words of the Heart)

Dacey (Ace Dick and Equius): Et Fortitudo Amicita (Friends and Strength)


The simple but badass ones:

Scourge (Snowman, Terezi and Vriska): Ex Obscurum (From Shadow)

Quirke (White Queen): Ex Solis (From Sun)

Kingsley (Mobster Kingpin and Eridan): Contere Infirma (Crush the Weak)

And then we have Authority Regulator’s family motto:

Non Raedam
…which translates to “No Parking” (or a close equivalent)

Still laughing over Karkat’s middle name

The call came around six o’clock in the evening. Aradia leapt from where she had been sitting on her bed, hastily tying her hair back into an amateurish ponytail. She was, after all, only six years old. Her little feet thundered down the stairs in excitement as she ran toward the kitchen.

Her father was standing in the doorway, his tall frame silhouetted by the lights in the room. As she skidded to a halt in front of him, he raised an eyebrow and unfolded his arms.

“Are you all ready?”

Aradia beamed, showing off the few missing baby teeth she’d lost that past week. She nodded enthusiastically, which prompted her father to hold up a hand to stop her before she entered the kitchen.

“Ah-ah, young lady. You’re forgetting what we do first. Can you remember?”

She frowned in concentration, trying to recall what it was he’d told her last week. With a spark of memory, she smacked her forehead. How could she have forgotten?

“We wash our hands!” As if to emphasise her point, the little girl stretched her arms toward her father, fingers splayed. A corner of his mouth twitched – the closest to a smile he ever gave. With a nod and a quiet chuckle, he lifted her into his arms to take her over to the sink. The water was warm, and the soap smelled a little like cherries, and Aradia spent roughly five minutes making sure her hands were as clean as could be.

Whilst she was working on scrubbing away all the possible dirt, her father had set up the pots and pans on the stove, set up all the chopping boards and retrieved a large collection of ingredients.  By the time she was finished, he’d already picked up a small knife. Aradia turned round just as he was making his way back over to the sink, and watched with interest as he ran the blade under some cold water.

“Why’re you doing that, Daddy?” Her head tilted in confusion.

“Well, apparently it’s to help stop eyes burning when chopping onions.”

“We’re doing the onion first? Bluuuuuuuh.” She scrunched up her face and stuck out her tongue. Onions were the worst. Droog glanced toward his daughter, noting that she’d picked up that habit from Slick. He’d have to have a word with him. As he set the knife aside, he turned off the tap neatly and picked up his little girl from where she was sitting on the counter, lifting her down to the floor.

Aradia stood on her toes as she watched him chop the onions, peppers and tomatoes. Thursday nights were special – it was pasta night! And when she was a little bit older, Daddy had promised her she’d be able to help properly. She hugged his leg as he worked on preparing everything. Though she hated how onions made her eyes hurt, her favourite thing to do was watch how he cut them – it was a really clever way, the way he cut along the darker green lines first, then across to make a chequerboard sort of pattern. It never failed to impress her just how fast and neat her daddy could chop veggies. Not even Uncle Slick could do that, she was sure.

Sometimes, once everything was cooking properly, he’d lift her up and let her stir the sauce – as long as she was careful not to get any on her dress, of course. And then, after what felt like ages (but was really just around ten minutes, her father said), the highlight of her evening would happen.

She’d get to taste it. Just one spoonful, which would be immediately washed, but it was always the best. No food was better than her Daddy’s cooking. Nothing would ever be as tasty as his pasta. That, she was certain of.

"THEY’RE GIVING OUT BALLOONS, LETS GET ONE." The excited young troll tugged on the short mobsters sleeve, dragging him to the booth where a stout old man was bent on his knees handing out balloons.

"Kid, it’s expensive and you’ll pop it. I’m not getting you a balloon." Slick looked angrily at Karkat who was scowling and snarled quietly.

"DAD,THEY’RE FREE. CAN WE JUST GET THE BALLOON AND LEAVE?"

Slick begrudgingly agreed to get a balloon if not just the fact that he didn’t have much energy to get into a loud, potentially violent, argument. They walked to the stand where the man gave Karkat a large purple balloon with the Disney logo plastered across the front.

"Tie it on your wrist so it don’t fly away."
"DAD, I’M NOT TWO. I’M SURE I’M MORE THAN CAPABLE OF HOLDING ON TO A FUCKING BALLOON."

Slick reached into his pocket and shuffled around for a moment until he finally took out a switchblade from his pocket. Karkat looked at the knife, a bit confused, but continued to stand still as Slick swiftly cut the string tying the balloon down.

"WHY THE FUCK DID YOU CUT THE STRING?!"

"I told ya it’d fly away. This is why ya gotta listen to me."

[REDACTED]

Hey it was a while ago but remember when you all were talking about how you got the Midnight Crew's stats from the adventure Midnight Sleuth, and wanted to see more of the mobsterswap world? WELL I FOUND A THING

Sorry I was gone! Initially, I couldn't figure out an in-character post, and then I got too busy. So, should I just hop back in, anywhere in particular that would work especially well?

So I was talking it over with havoc, and we were unable to define what abilities a Muse of Space would have due to it being a very passive role, any thoughts/suggestions?

So, apparently I've been informed that I have no life, since I haven't seen a bunch of important movies

Let me list the ones I need to see:

Jaws
Alien
Aliens
Indiana Jones 1 and 2
Forest Gump
Caddyshack
Anchor Man
Back to the Future

Anyone care to add to the list? I've missed a lot of important movies

Indiana Jones 3
Saw 1
The Karate Kid (1984)
Terminator 1-2 (maybe 3)
Uncle Buck
Predator (1-2)
Saving Private Ryan
Hook
Schindler's List
The Goonies
2001 A Space Odyssey
The Exorcist (1973, scariest move i have ever seen)
Gone With the Wind (It's not that bad)
Lawrence of Arabia
It's a Wonderful Life
Apocalypse Now
Full Metal Jacket
The Big Red One
We were Soldiers Once
Tora, Tora, Tora
Space Battleship Yamato (StarBlazers in the U.S. search for Space Battleship Yamato 2012 Subtitled for the remake movie, I watched all the old episodes on VHS when i was 7, trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BhvLvQ08RM )
Original Star Trek series + movies
The Final Countdown
I could go on, but I won't

Full Metal Jacket is a movie, not an anime, The final countdown is a move, Tora, Tora, Tora is a movie, The Goonies ( I meant the movie), Uncle Buck is a comedy, Lawrence of Arabia is a movie, we were soldiers once is also a movie

Also Predator 1+2 are essential movies to see, where do you think the predators in Aliens VS Predators came from?

I'm gonna cry

Okay, just one thing:

Ivory (Pickle Inspector, Feferi and Nepeta): Verba Corde (Words of the Heart)

PIs kid is Gamzee here, Fef is Deaths kid...

Also, we didn't do the human version and they are all adopted, I think, right?

Sheesh, I'm confused...

What we kept coming down to was that it was passive to the point of active, as in she has a passive distortion field that manipulates space around here, the only problem was that by that logic it was an active ability

Remember what active and passive mean within sburb.

Roxy is passive, because a Rogue steals for the benefit of others, not for himself/herself.

Basically, there is nothing that says that you can't activly do something, "most passive" means you can't do it for yourself, only for others.

Those were only other people's stuff. Also I am adding all the Jurassic parks onto that list.

Oh yeah, pumkin, how did you find that?

Stabdadspam:

AFHJHGSDKJGHKGBKEJTHISISBEAUTIFUL

also I may or may not start using this as a place to dump cool Crew-related pics I find YOU'RE A BAD EXAMPLE SAND

Pumpkin: YESSSSSSSSSSSSS *shall read*

(can we make nightnight references in the suggestion box Deuce with a pumpkin on his head needs to happen)

Also, I just realised, why is yours the only Final Deal that's actually final? Slick came back from his, DD will come back from his, you... perma-died.

Why?

And Havoc, the only problem with MY plan (which is rather similar to the cueball's) is that I don't know where the Alpha is, so I just need a way to find out WHERE he is and I'll be fine.

Also, what're we going to do about the Doomed Caliborn infestation?

does anyone here read lucidstuck?

because the main character is either my kid or midnight sleuth's ps kid

not sure which

EDIT:

*looks left then right*

*puts this on the table*

*a8conds*

Ahahahahahahahahahahaha!

This is priceless!

Hmm, I guess I could try to find some good pictures, or maybe videos or something...

OJ, which link did you get from Slick's post

Because I wouldn't want you to miss mine.


(Also, making sure Slick realises what happened.)
