bold of you to read tone and inflection in the words of black and white remiss of pitch and volume.

that's but a projection of self...

might want to look into that;

indeed tis true, everything is so simple but then entropy and machine and man. how many singularities can fit in one room? the variables alone can flip any actuary to meltdown. i simply keep the laws of probability over the root of three. to those 3 which end up being in the American terse, in a french style curse the oh Sh, Well Sh , and the generally fatal ShShShSh in the current scene and climate seems to be quite a bit of live-action play. no, I do not scorn as Jervis and Watson, they were my first friends before I could even understand.

though time passing is always the true enemy of self. nowhere is it held I must lose my best-scripted version of self. nor compromise style,

perhaps if the demand to sit in silent repose dressed in the idiot skin that is staged for lack of imagined.

was rescripted things would ..or perhaps could... be one of the possibilities... and not so bland.

Don't forget that the writing samples also need to show us your understanding of the PPC, which was the biggest stumbling block last time, IIRC. Make sure you've put plenty of effort into your research (including reading stories, not just the wiki) as well as the actual writing.

And, I promise, if it's an engaging story with entertaining characters that are well integrated with the setting, we won't mind a few hundred words more or less. {= )

... but I swore never to use what power I have unjustly and self-servingly. I wouldn't be worth even the shirt on my back if I broke that promise and did whatever I wanted. A house or country divided against itself falls, and friends who do not keep their promises become enemies. You, Tash may be the Inexorable, but that does not mean that everyone will obey you," said Rebecca. ((-Claire, talking like a book for some reason or other))

I'll just DM you the link, and you can look at it when you've got time.

"We both swore the Oath to get these powers in the first place, and I sure don't want my magic yoinked for turning evil."

"And even if we could do whatever we wanted, we shouldn't," Estril added. "I didn't turn on the Empire just to become them but with magic, for one thing. It'd be wrong!"

"I do not throw rocks," she ground out. She reached for the end of the fading time stream and pinched the farthest star between index finger and thumb. As she cupped it in her palm, its twinkling white began to dim into a rusty red. "I take only that which has no further place in the river." She clenched the fist, and the stars of the minor time stream all winked out, the stronger stream diverted by the Ellimist's "rock" still shining strong and bright.

Tash was desperate to confront the Ellimist further, but glanced at the mortals. She was embarrassed to admit any weakness before them, and yet . . . her curiosity and envy won out. She turned to face the Ellimist and spoke quietly. "My power is constrained by the will of the Lion. Thee has no such restriction upon thy power. Why, then, do thee choose to limit thyself?"

—doctorlit, suddenly humanizing Tash a bit, I guess

((Nesh, if my Nursery kids' reactions to the Ellimist's concert weren't what you had in mind, I can absolutely edit that!))

Just bear in mind that we're all very tired, 2021 being what it is. Case in point: it took me two days to get the energy to post this reply, which ultimately consists of "eh, sure".

hS

Honestly, I can't see why it wouldn't be fine, especially if that can help fleshing your characters a bit better, but for being sure, maybe ask a veteran.

I have seen the SW sequels, though. Would you be comfortable with me looking at it? It will probably be a few days before I can get to it.

—doctorlit has had one of the Sharpe's books for years, but hasn't gotten to it yet

Do you scorn AIs? Yet computer logic may prove wise, for when it comes to such a game as this, I say perhaps the only way to win is not to play.

~Neshomeh is a filthy hypocrite, no need to make a point of it.

Anybody want a peanut?

Back when the server was public, some random person came in and started asking questions about pay-per-click stuff. It was pretty fun to explain "nah, we're actually a bunch of fanfic nerds."

As I write a new request and think of different stories altogether, I came up with 2 stories for 2 different control prompts, namely "agents first meet" and "one tells the other about recruitment". Normally it should be one or the other, but I think including both stories in the request would flesh out the agents better. None of the 3 stories are long; in fact, each are about 500 or 600 words. What's the consensus on this?

Have a mini snek with a hat!

what is the first rule of a master magician? ... but to make sure your the smartest in the room, as i look around at the PhD, the tenur of the day, and the design of the done in the dark...but as always the neglect to look up. as per psycology. you only read book 1 b, for the book of cons is the exact same, albeit much better item and chapter names. making it 1a. and yet none raise their hand to attest they have even read it.

and my dear, gibberish indeed. care to explain how a baby with ONLY this can attest to a room of adults or wild animal to perfectly understand???

after all are you not writers, and planners who speak in various shades, and make ref to books of such a small library? Do you think this all-new? LOL... perhaps check the reference to the hardbound editions of the 1950s, as then we had everything we see today, the electric car that self parks, to AI we just couldn't communicate because you know....."speak English" * oh the chuckles*** should we ask the Apostle Pvual? or play the game of "thou shalt not kill "as the director said. though it contrasts the 10 that says thou shall not kill. and now that is a nuance that brings the gnashing of teeth and screams i hear with my long ears...but by a slight of a single word. and what happens when a God's true name is uttered?

**for some reason, one called the black rose comes to mind, and in and of that, even I am unsure why. or where it fits in

but this ill say. take a sentence diagram, and break it down. pull the books and volumes and then the gist will be revealed. after all, it's not called a cipher without reason. and all mentioned should be ingrained in all your repertory should it not? for before one can write of the future does not one need to heed the past lest repeat? and have a command of infosec?

now that we may pass your simplistic test, and assage your inherent fear. should you not be sorting the issue at hand? for I have but 50 years to go toe to toe or stand beside the best in the land, in each and every aspect.. and then the reverse doing the same to conquer those that choose and crept in my dark and walking the wire the writing of F Nietzsche. to understand what was wrong with this iteration to warn the verticle and the architects of the reset. For if I am here. so is he. said Mr glass.

now smile and make light, I believe the phrase starts to eat drink, and be merry.... and the fact this is not laid out, suggest the terror that which you want so desperately for your mind to dismiss is perhaps real. and to this my dear you need not a mustard seed but simply to accept and take the next twelve steps. Ah, humans, always so difficult with the basics of simple tasks, yet capable of fighting beside the Gods. a living conundrum indeed.

and for a sect of random writers, I find it really odd at the ploy of stupidity when the mathematical model entrapment of the entropy you call the multiverse. Is written in BINARY.. some random fancy human descriptors...but this is not man-made nor yours as it plagiarized..it comes from the one that echo helo in alpha and awaits my echo helo in omega. in the lesson of El Ahrairah which personage do you think you are or belong to? and because I like to cause self-face palms... break the rabbits' name down. Rah. be the Egyptians no?> Hrai > the blend of Vishnu and who??? indeed.

now you understand I think a bit more. we use a simple word as brains go smooth, much like Love a many splintered thing. today we call it Hybrid, and it's what the future is based. ...or did that too overlooked by all those that #listen behind escape you ? as I find many that studied themselves into disgrace, as it's a Humans well-known issue.... the white rabbit says we are late. so brass tacks, its time to create for if you do anything should it not be done so in style? light the candles and commence, indeed all even me require some assistance. for the choice of life continued is the verticle race. so awaken the art dept, and gather your pens. for the documents stretch back to the original sin.

Thanks for the lucky penny

Same Permission draft as before. I will admit it’s pretty long, at seven pages in a Google doc (in twelve point font). Agent fandoms are Sharpe and RWBY, with a mission to the Star Wars sequel trilogy in the creative prompt. And, last note, the Agents are very military.

I'm Oculus, I'm a big nerd and I go by any pronouns, nice to meet you. Have a lucky penny for your newbie gift!

We only give out invites to the discord to people who introduce themselves on the board nowadays. There used to be a public link, but we had spam and troll problems.

Automated hugging machine! Nice. Now I can make up for the fact nobody hugs me.

(if anyone wants to investigate https://discord.com/invite/62UX9RA & https://discord.gg/2ng6yp)

Yea, there's also a r/PPC, and annoying numbers of different discords

Thanks for the two cents. Now I can randomly use them in comments
