    The VR Genre

    That does sound like something I'd say, but I'm having trouble right now remembering the context.

    How do YOU write VILLAIN without sounding like a piece of ?

    The rule with writing villains is that nobody thinks they are the villain (unless you are writing for Saturday Morning Cartoons in a kids show.) The villain of the story will, in some way or another, think they are in the right for everything they do. The serious ass-hole villains feel entitled...

    How Would Having One Weak Eye Affect Archery?

    Well, I have never trained in archery, but I have trained in hurled weapons. (Knife throwing and such.) If they are in any way similar, eyesight is really not the key factor in your accuracy. It's all about training and developing an intuition for the distance. This being the case, I'd say...

    A Poem (Chamber)

    They say a good poem should read as though it were a song. I think this is the first time I've ever read a poem that comes off like a rap dis-track though.

    Well, more exists. But, as you are such an utterly poor discussion partner, you're not getting anymore. (I gave a stripped down version there on purpose because you've shown to have a pattern of this kind of behavior, and my suspicions proved true.)

    Well, if you insist. But first, gotta catch you up on the background stuff. Once again, if we look at a general world-scale, it is easy to see where the nihilistic perspective on kindness comes from. Thing is, kindness has it's place. It is something you need to show to others within your own...

    While I can get pretty deep into this subject to disabuse people here of this nihilism, it would be far too esoteric an explanation requiring quite a bit of background, and when it comes right down to it I can pretty easily sum up the core root of the misunderstanding here. It's not that nice...

    Things you discovered you know a lot about while writing.

    Well, I tend to look at the lore of various fantasy creatures in isolation (other than dragons and the fire bird, because I just really like those two in particular and really dived deep into them), so you may very well be right about that and I may very well have missed something. After all...

    Things you discovered you know a lot about while writing.

    Kobolds are strange. They are basically mischivious spirits in German folklore, but stories in regards to them are quite varied. In most versions though, they are entirely like small humans, not the monster-like portrayals that D&D ingrained into everyone's heads. There are, however, a few...

    Things you discovered you know a lot about while writing.

    I will admit to not being as up on Chinese linguistics as I am on the Japanese. (I just kinda found out about the Chinese going the opposite direction for the word for the color blue from Japan when I was specifically looking up Qinglong/Shenryu (difficult to figure out what to call him other...

    Things you discovered you know a lot about while writing.

    It's a little meta, but I discovered I know quite a bit about mythologies across various cultures, and of course as I was writing I wound up accumulating even more knowledge on exactly this subject. I guess I've just been exposed to a lot of ancient lore as it's referenced in a whole heck of a...

    Recurring Messages in Children's Shows

    If you remember Beetlejuice, that means you're probably a 90s kid. That would mean other kids shows from that time include Rugrats, Ahh Real Monsters, Rocko's Modern Life, Ren and Stimpy, Gummy Bears, Tail Spin, Bonkers, and Animaniacs... Huhh... I suppose none of those shows really DID have...

    Recurring Messages in Children's Shows

    I think my favorite implementation of this storyline was when I actually saw it get worked into a far more mature franchise in the form of Ascendance of a Bookworm. That said, it takes a VERY different direction in that implementation that really messes with the latter few steps in the routine...

    Who is the most necro on the forum?

    Well, "I am the walrus" got more up-votes than "I am the demon gurl," so I'm just interpreting what the forum population is telling me.

    Who is the most necro on the forum?

    Beetles > demon gurls

    I am the walrus.

    How you guys earn from writing Novel?

    Well, that explains why my comment mentioned having only ever seen 1 author who makes enough to be considered "a living" off his Patreon. I've seen at least 4 at this point, but I guess that statement that I've only seen 1 was probably truthful 3 years ago. That said, this pretty much means I...

    POST your favorite anime song

    I also really enjoy the fact that the Mushoku Tensei series went to the absolutely absurd level of care to make a unique opening for every single episode in the series. I'd have to say my favorite of them is the episode 17 opening though.

    POST your favorite anime song

    Ok, I feel ashamed this one wasn't among the first ones I posted. I guess the anti kid-show bias kept me from considering it sooner, but there's just no denying this is one of the freaking best anime OPs of all time. I just realized, this isn't asking for OPs, this is asking for anime songs in...
