You do make an emotionally compelling point :slight_smile:

But in all seriousness, all jokes aside:

This reads like a drunk creepypasta or… something? What’s the In thing these days? :joy:

The Tol Barad chat announcement from your addon made me recoil in old age.

There are plenty of cultures like Ireland where they’re like ‘well obviously I don’t believe in faeries but Under No Circumstances do you move that faerie circle’

Bah gawd.

Total Warhammer did a cool Ariel.

We have that too but the vaettir varieties work differently. Cold steel still works, though, praise Lynn.

There’s a special place in my heart for FF14’s titania, high fem non-binary king of the faeries

Sometimes it’s hard to let go of the superstitious part of your brain, even if rationally you know nothing bad will happen.

It certainly took me a long time.

Both are great, but I did mean the reigning Titania

Feo Ul deez—

Abelard, escort this heretic to the Void

I used to do the same with A on gamecube when it was Pokemon: Colosseum or XD:Gale of Darkness.

Always a shame that the Orre region was never treated as canon or featured in other media. A region where wild pokemon practically were non-existent ( which makes me wonder how the heck the pokemon trainers there -did- get their pokemone) and only you could capture pokemon from others with your Snag Machine.

The story about pokemon being turned into soulless fighting-machines by having the doors to their hearts closed, and you having to help make them whole again while stopping the organisation behind it was always an interesting story. Could’ve been explored for a more mature audience perhaps.
