you will have to pry the millennial “lol” from my cold dead hands. i don’t know how else to express minor despair. if i didn’t say “lol” after admitting i’m a husk inside, i’d have to develop emotional resilience, and i simply don’t have time for that

My first crimes were the original naughtywvr patch wayyyyy back in the day. For. Obvious reasons I no longer use it. But I do still use a body mod. Most of my other mod use is rescales for said body mod, but I do use hairs and scales here and there as well.
#WoLQotD Though more of a player question:
For those who use crimes, do you remember what your first one was (created or used)? What got you spiraling down the rabbit hole of modding? Was there a lore reason behind it? Do you still use it?
(Found this on my old X acct and figured I'd drag it here)

a man who is supposed to be your ally but he keeps lying to you. a man who is supposed to be your enemy but tells you nothing but the truth. you're never sure of either's intentions bc they're in an elaborate game of chess against each other

it had to have been sheer luck of the draw. but *fuck*. Roathe calling me pet was one thing HOWEVER the double whammy of "Come closer. This tail has a mind of its own, and it cannot reach you there." and "And here I thought you were going to sit on my lap..." fucking ended me. i'm just saying.

not me figuring out which old email my original ao3 account (which i forgot i had) was linked to so i could change it and my username for posting things i am entirely not comfortable having linked to me in a traceable way.
never thought i'd be writing any of this, but it *is* written now.

Conflating machine learning tools with GenAI and LLMs are such a favorite of these bad faith arguments, too. Like, machines studying X-rays to better understand cancer is not the same thing as Open AI swallowing all my books via piracy to regurgitate sentences that sound similar. It's just not.

I’ve seen a few folks go for the “if you simply must watch that new Harry Potter show just pirate it” and sorry. No. Just no. Just don’t watch it. At all. Ever. Break free of it. It’s time. You’ll be ok. I promise. I know it mattered to you as a kid. Find new things, it’s healthier. Just move on.

By the time In From the Cold happens, if it happens, Nara has been Azem for quite some time, and is capable of body-hopping on her own. Fandaniel does not know this. She eventually manages to slip the bonds that hold her in the corpse, and takes Zenos' body instead. Fair's fair, after all. (1/3)

How did your WOL/OC react/feel about the events of "In From the Cold"? Was there anything specific that happened to them that was not shown in-game? What was the aftermath like?

This is what gets me about all this AI crap.
I don’t want a computer that I have to talk to and confer with like it’s a real person, or to do all my thinking and creative process for me.
I want a computer that just does the task I need it to do so I can get work done, log off and go live my life.

“We want every person making the move to experience what it means to have a PC that’s not just a tool, but a true partner” no, thank you, my PC is just a tool, and so is my phone, and so is my other tech, and it'll stay this way.
It's incredible how out of touch and out of reality tech bros are

With a couple WIPs nearing enough completion that I'm considering starting to post I feel I almost definitely need to say this before people come for my head.
My opinions of Venat/Hydaelyn are nuanced; she's not perfect or infallible, but she's also not the worst thing ever.
Nara however? HATES her.

This one feels like it's set in stone. Nara—and Hyth—are the ones dying, Hades is obsessively trying to save them.

I'm borrowing this one from a shitpost I saw on tumblr of all places.
If your character and their significant other were caught in a death loop, which one would always be the one dying and which would be the one desperately looping time to save them?

Nara was 30.
There was little reason to learn such a skill on the Steppe. Tataru offered to teach her when she joined the Scions, she was 25 and deemed it not worth the time, but she did learn her numbers.
She did not so much learn as instead came by the knowledge after ascendance to her seat.

Nara is 4'9.5". Depending on which model you reference, Hades is between 6'4" and 6'7", so he has almost 2 fulms on her.
