00:03 * Finwe finishes reading Lords and Ladies.

00:03 <Schism> Elves are fantastic.  o3o

00:03 *** Quits: uni (uni@Pony-0ih94j.ucl.ac.uk) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

00:03 <Finwe> Now what was the next one?

00:04 <Schism> In the Witches' series?

00:04 <Finwe> No, in general.

00:04 <Schism> Men at Arms, then.

00:04 <Finwe> I'm reading them all in Roundworld chronological order.

00:05 <Finwe> And indeed, Men at Arms.

00:06 <Schism> "If [The Fools' Guild] burns down, it'll be a blow for entertainment in this city." --Carrot Ironfoundersson

00:07 <Finwe> Maskerade would have been the next and last Witches book.

00:07 <Schism> [That was a true Carrot comment.  It sounded innocent as hell, but it could be taken another way...]

00:08 <Schism> Mmm.  Well, Agnes being the Third Witch would have been the end of a saga, as it were.

00:09 <Schism> In a very real sense, however, Granny's series was pretty emblematic as a whole.

00:09 <Finwe> Or actually, Carpe Jugulum is alos more or less about witches.

00:09 <Finwe> So that would be the last one.

00:10 <Schism> About identity, I would say.

00:14 <Schism> Though Maskerade and Carpe Jugulum were both about identities and the ways in which we present ourselves to the world.

00:16 <Finwe> "“It began, as many things do, with a death. And a burial, on a spring morning, with mist on the ground so thick that it poured into the grave and the coffin was lowered into cloud.”

00:18 <Finwe> While Lords and Ladies ended almost, but not quite, like it begun, with the sounds of laughter and tinkling of silver bells from the town, and from the hillside the silence of the elves.

00:18 <nightwindphone> Hihi

00:19 * Schism wavewaves.

00:22 <Schism> One might have wondered what happened to Master Tublichek, but then once one asked, the Men with the Smiling Faces came about and made it quite clear that one did not ask what happened to Master Tublichek.

00:22 <Schism> Tubelcek*

00:23 <Schism> And Father, not Master.  Still.

07:21 <ConfusionRift> Hello everypony.

07:30 <Schism> Hiyas.

07:30 * Schism giggles at characters like this. They're fun. https://www.uptofourplayers.com/comic/home-heart-page-2/

07:32 * ConfusionRift laughs. "Yes, thank you!" :P

07:38 <ConfusionRift> (shoots the butler) This was some time coming. You will be harming no one now! | "What are you doing?! He's not the murder!" | He... he's not? | "First off, he was attending us around the time the murder happened." | Oh... right. ._.; | "Also, the murder left blood behind, so their definitely not a vampire." | Right! Wait... a vampire? (watches the butler stand up, dust themselves off, and just pick the bullet off their chest)

07:38 <ConfusionRift> WHAT THE F-?!?!

07:38 <Schism> ConfusionRift, no, two plus one plus one plus two, that's six bullets.

07:39 <Schism> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5ROhf5Soqs

07:40 <Schism> Also, that's not necessarily an indication of vampirism!  Could be a bulletproof vest.

07:43 <ConfusionRift> Eerm, bullets deform really badly on a bulletproof vest. The whole thing of picking a bullet intact from a vest is mostly fictional. It would be mangled, deformed, and likely wedged within the cloth and plates.

07:43 <Schism> Okay, okay.  But it'd be deformed if it were stopped by some vampiric powers too.

07:44 <ConfusionRift> ...truuuueee, okay you got me there. :P

07:45 <ConfusionRift> But the play was that he picked it from his chest, like it would have impacted and not dug too deep. (checks the papers) At least, that's what the script says... I think.

07:46 <Schism> How to confuse the heck out of a player: have your seemingly obvious villain actually be reasonable, polite, and kind.  https://www.uptofourplayers.com/comic/home-heart-page-16/

07:51 <ConfusionRift> "The whole vampire butler thing is kinda cliche. Kinda predictable." | Okay okay, maybe he's... he WAS an agent! And he knows martial arts, has weapons training, and- | "Why, hello, ALFRED." | ...fine, and normal butler with a foreshadowing of ill intent, but it's just he doesn't know how to express himself. | "..." (wobbles hand) "Meeeeh."

07:53 * ConfusionRift throws the script.

07:59 <ConfusionRift> Might as well make him a sock puppet I guess. | (gasps) "BRILLIANT~!" | Wuh waih what?!

08:07 * ConfusionRift watches a video. "Hey guuuys, if you like this video, hit a 'Like'. If you disliked it, you know what to do... NOTHING! Just sit a shut it! ...or put it in the comments section." Chuckles, and just barely noticed that yes, they removed the dislikes.

08:08 <Schism> Randomly: Gotta love exploding dice.

08:08 <Schism> Oh yeah.  Youtube decided that dislikes would no longer be shown, which... uh... well.

08:09 <ConfusionRift> The good thing is that since most of the videos of interest are on the main feed, I tend to clear out any videos I wouldn't care to watch. :P

08:10 <ConfusionRift> "Roll the die, and test your luck. The higher the number, the greater the rewards! Avoid getting a 1 though." | (rolls, and lands on 1) Wow, first try, alread- (explodes)

08:11 <Schism> Hehe.  Well, exploding dice are when you get the maximum number a die can show -- so you get to reroll it.  This can lead to frightening situations, like rerolling a 10 three times.

08:11 <Schism> Adding the number on each reroll to the success.

08:12 <Schism> Getting a 39 for damage on a 1d10 roll in, say, Dark Legacy can lead to things like decapitating a demon with a knife.

08:14 <ConfusionRift> Aaaah, I see. ... ... ... ... ...i still like the sploding dice thing tthanx :P

08:20 * ConfusionRift offers Schism chocolate. "So... apparently someone did find the bar, and put it elsewhere."

08:22 * Schism accepts a piece, though she also groans, "I hate having a runny nose." She coughs a bunch.

08:27 <ConfusionRift> Same. Been waking up with runny nose and dry as heck.

09:07 <Schism> "I'll allow it, but you have to make it with a minus six." "Minus SIX?!" "It's cartoon physics." "Fiiine..." [rolls 6 exploding dice]

09:08 <Finwe> Good forenoon, everypony!

09:08 * Finwe noms on artichoke puré soup.

09:11 <Finwe> Lt Cdr ConfusionRift, Capt Koopz; Miss Schism; Messrs AppleDash, Cepheid, Lumindia, and uni; Mrs nightwind.
