The Eternal Struggles of a Minor Death (RDQ)

Just caught up. At this point I really just want Aeternum to stab herself. Preferably in a non-vital, but painful spot. It seems very likely that she has some mind control /mental influence problems at the moment, even though her high int stat allows her to reason her way through it.

Why do you think that?

I see suddenly shifting trains of thought that don't follow what I've seen from her before, including needing to logic away new instincts. Honestly I think that the influence is probably coming from one of our allies, although they might not realize that they're doing something wrong.

Beyond that my instincts are simply screaming at me that something is wrong.

It could simply be Aeternum working through the influence of SV though and I'm simply freaking out because mind control has been confirmed to be used enough for it to be in the rulebook.

I think that is just us being emotional, when before we had almost none

We have been having thoughts not our own (the traditional armour), and having some pretty violent mood swings and aborted chains of thought.

There's something to that, although now is hardly the time for self-harm.
 
I actually agree with that notion as well, but it could be said that it's always going to be a worry of ours, all things considering that aeternam literally has a voice in her head. And it's hardly likely that stabbing ourselves will help with this one. Personally speaking, I think it prudent to just go along with this mind control, as the black icky wants us to survive long enough to be a challenge, and our partners subconsciously doing it probably isn't going to end in our demise.

So again, stabbing ourselves probably isn't the right way to go about this.

It has been three months since your last post, let alone mine. And your post is definition off topic.

In the future, please refrain from trying to get infracted in my Quest.

As for the post, it's actually an interesting situation. The script for the post is fully written, but for some reason I am unable to translate that script into words.
If someone was still interested in the quest and wanted to, I would not be above allowing them to write out a draft for me to write the full version off of.

Note: Consequently, if no one was interested in the quest anymore, I'd be willing to accept that and move on. I couldn't hold such a thing against anyone, given the unannounced hiatus being entirely my fault.

Sure, if you want I can write up the script for you, work it so that you can understand it and fix it up.

I'm going to continue either way after I get that back from the Clown and modify it to my evil purposes. However, I feel it'd be nice to know where the others stand. Idle curiosity, I guess.

I can stick around, but I've thrown myself into a large number of other quests since the hiatus, so I don't suspect I'll be as thorough as I might have tried to be before.
 
Alright, Clown sent me back that script.

I should have the post done sometime tomorrow.
 
Well I know for certain that I'm not interested, because you're a trash writer and absolutely horrible to all your voters (You know you always have me bro)
 
Well, I'm still around and interested.

Let's see, how did this go again?

Pretty much everything can kill us, and very little can be trusted, but being overcautious and paranoid will kill us at around 40% the speed of being recklessly incautious.

That sounds about right.
 
I'll be here. Not sure about how often since I'm in school right now, or how in depth my votes will be, but I'll do my best. If things get too complex though you can't expect me to do more than lurk.
 
You see the thing is, this isn't that type of quest. We only need your votes when things are complicated. If you're only in for the simple ones you're only being half as useful.
