MEMES?!?

[unfavorableinstigation]

[This is a catchall post for memes for Autistic_Ace's characters.

Current list of memes: Relationship Questions;
Truth Meme;
Texts From Last Night and General Texting;
Two Truths and a Lie;
Carnival/Fun of the Fair;
Denny's (which apparently does delivery now! Order-in?);
Words; Hurt/Comfort;
Lap Pillow;
Rescue Meme;
Train to the Afterlife Meme (which can ALSO double as a rescue meme, heh, especially for CRAU.)
Hurt/Comfort Meme, for kicks;
Wal-Mart;
Hygge;


If smut ( ahem ) feels like an option for a character/CR, then go ahead and ask! May require an AU/ageing up of some sort, but I digress.

Please specify a meme when tagging a character's respective toplevel - then we can go from there!]

lose it? like, they actually get their powers taken? or they lose something philosophical?

[unfavorableinstigation]

The first. And wizardry doesn't - can't - live in the unwilling heart, so if they start feeling that being a wizard goes against their chosen philosophy, they can lose the power that way, too.

And having wizardry revoked means, at best, that you remember it as 'a cool fantasy game'. Worst case, you don't remember any part of your life that was directly connected to being a wizard.

[This is one of those things that Nita will full-on admit is fucked up, no matter WHAT someone did to invoke it.]

[brokeassgoing]

holy shit, like a-- well not a monkeys paw, more a...a failsafe? a bomb in your ass? man, that's tricky. delusion is fucked UP

[unfavorableinstigation]

Failsafe's closest, yeah. It has to be really clear cut that you screwed someone else over - and on purpose - for it to not at least involve giving the wizard in question a heads-up, though. And some chance to explain themselves.

[brokeassgoing]

so what the universe decided this? if there's a group of guys in charge, are they omniscient or something?

[unfavorableinstigation]

For beings who exist outside of time - surprisingly, no. Also means they trust us as the experts to know what living HERE is like.

[brokeassgoing]

wow, that's incredibly surprising...no nosy powers that be, WOW

[unfavorableinstigation]

Ha!

Don't get me wrong, beings who exist out of Time can cause us their own headaches, but the only one of Them who really thinks humans and the like are lesser is the one who wants us all dead. Wizards in particular, Life in general. Thinks spirit is superior to matter, too.

[brokeassgoing]

so what death? satan?

[unfavorableinstigation]

Inventor of Entropy, yeah.

[Whether Nita elaborates depends on how much Badou actually wants to know.]

[brokeassgoing]

......SATAN???? santa...?

[unfavorableinstigation]

Surprisingly, they're not related. And Satan's more of an assumed identity humans came up with for Them than anything.

He's a real petty bitch, too.

[Though that's less surprising.]

[brokeassgoing]

ROFL jesus i guess you dont have to worry about them snatching you, then? if you can talk shit?

[unfavorableinstigation]

That's just me knowing how to take care of myself. :V
And having good allies, more importantly. We're not in this fight alone.

[brokeassgoing]

Would you save me from the devil?

[unfavorableinstigation]

[Well, this got deep. Oh sure, you say that NOW, Neets...]

Whether this is a joke or not, the answer's yes. For that matter, I'd help get you the tools to fight back and help yourself, while we're at it.

[Don't do these things by half-measures and all.]

[brokeassgoing]

[oh, a second goes by where he doesn't realize how deep that question could be

whoops]

well thanks. i do appreciate it. glad to know they're beatable in the first place too

[unfavorableinstigation]

Something we all got to remember, these days.

[It helps in warding off the 'feeling overwhelmed' blues, also.]

But then, not everyone gets the practice, and that's not their fault.

[brokeassgoing]

a lot of these stories the devil just comes when your pants are down....like dante's inferno, right?

[unfavorableinstigation]

That can happen.
A lot more often, though, it's subtler than that. What sort of things would you call entropic?

[She's going to... try not to dump him in at the deep end. Mostly.]

[brokeassgoing]

i guess that goes back to some of the moral shit, the 'normal' ones

[unfavorableinstigation]

What, like recycling? Or not staying in a bad relationship because you think you deserve it?

[Slowing down entropy can look like a LOT of things. Badou may want to word his next message carefully, or it'll get even more confusing. Which Nita doesn't really want to do.]

[brokeassgoing]

that's
definitely one way to put it
that's more like torture

[unfavorableinstigation]

??

What, having to do recycling? I'm talking about other more mundane ways of slowing or fighting entropy, not like. Metaphors for it.

[brokeassgoing]

no i meant the way it sort of is endless....
