Haha! Met your reference with a reference! I'm proud of myself :)

Anyway, hi there Snowy! I'm Twistey, a one-year-bie who gets way too hyped over the smallest things, whether they're my own creations or other people's. I have at least one OC for every fandom I'm in... which is a lot. Oh boy.

Anyway, is your username the same on the Wiki? I'd like to look and see if any of your missions (if you wrote any) would be of interest to me. Just as a polite thing for a returnbie, y'know?

And for your returnbie gift, here's a bunch of lampwork glass beads. They're all shaped like various department logos and other PPC-related emblems, and there's one strand for each shape. Have fun with whatever you choose to do with them!

Nice to meet you and welcome back to the PPC!

I would love to be part of this. I'll have to read that fic all the way through later, as I have other Board things to do, but that looks really good!

That right there is every single interactive story app on the App store. Except maybe a few that I could've missed.

But nonetheless. Episode. Choices. All the chat story apps. They all do that. It's terrible, it's sneaky, it's unjust, but it's common. That's how they make money - instead of being honest and making you pay up front, they just make it free so you'll be fooled and then mooch you of your cash to make the game playable.

What a shame - Hogwarts Mystery looked so good and so restrictive of wish fulfillment (the only possible wish fulfillment being choice of house) that I originally kind of liked it.

I meant PM. I am only free after 6:00 (18:00) Eastern Time

Turned up this one: https://www.cardcastgame.com/browse/deck/A595V Which appears to be mostly based on "My Immortal" and "legolas by laura" with a few other references, some of which I recognize.

There are also many badfic refs in the Cards Against Headquarters decks.

We have several PPC decks, actually!

Password is: Another!

I might be catching the East Coasters too close to dinner, but oh well. We'll see what happens.

Though that's not very noticeable for the first, oh, six or so books... :V

I should be able to carve out some free time today. Considering it's the afternoon we could do it within a couple of hours if you're free?

My username on Showdown is Ihavenoinsurance, and you'll find me in (amongst others) the Writing Channel.

Assuing you're talking about 6:00 AM, Tomorrow shouldn't be a problem. Or rater today now.

Please have a pot of black-hole coffee.

It's already been confirmed that Loki will show up in the follow-up movie as well as this one, and I think Zoe Saldana being listed as part of the cast of said follow-up means Gamora isn't out of the game just yet, either. In fact, I think I can predict the way she'll be restored, since the way Thanos obtained the Mind stone after it got destroyed was by literally turning back time using the Time stone and then nabbing the intact one from the also-intact (at the time) Vision. So there's a possibility that on a larger scale, tinkering with what the Time Stone can do could literally reverse the deaths of people who weren't killed by the Gauntlet's power.

I think there's precedent for this as well, seeing as Dr. Strange was able to reverse time to revive Wong in his own debut movie - so chances are that getting the timey-wimey ball to dial it back a couple of notches would be the option our heroes are most likely to go with. My brother also speculated that Thanos himself would be the one to do it given that he has all the Infinity Stones now, though we'll still have to wait until next year to see whether that will be the case, or if instead the heroes themselves manage to somehow do the time-reversal thing with a little help from a certain Captain Marvel... whose own movie I'm eagerly awaiting if only because it'll probably provide one last, LAST piece of the puzzle before things all come together.

At any rate, even though the ending of this movie was Not Okay, I'm very much looking forward to seeing the second part of all this, along with how the hell the surviving Avengers and friends can set right what Thanos screwed up so royally. Though to be fair, they'll likely succeed to some degree, since there are future movies planned for a lot of the characters who got poofed at the end of this one and I seriously doubt Marvel would close off future box-office opportunities by making their de-existences permanent.

You can watch starting from first year here.

For those of you who don't have the time or money to spare on this badly designed game, but who want to have a good laugh at the story.

If not today, I might be available after 6:00 Eastern Time Tomorrow. And usually after 6:00 Eastern during the week.
