10/31/08 [Abel 2 #34] - OoOoOo... I'm the ghost of the whiny dumbasses

and for those of you who haven't figured it out yet- if it's too dark to read, highlight the damn thing with your mouse, and like magic, it appears!

That we know of so far.

Oh wait, there's also Spiders.

The spiders are a phobia, not a psychosis

AmigaDragon · November 04, 2008, 02:29:18 PM

So is the blood. Then which is the mentioned psychosis?

Eagle0600 · November 04, 2008, 11:05:52 PM

Aren't phobias technically psychoses?

Corgatha Taldorthar · November 04, 2008, 11:13:07 PM

I'm pretty sure Phobias are a type of anxiety disorder, and therefore not a psychosis.

Psychoses are things like schizoid disorders or delusional disorders. So unless the spiders are talking to you...

Maybe I should rephrase that.

I do believe this thread has been successfully derail'd.

We're now talking about Abel interacting with voices that aren't there, again, so I think that's pretty close.

Eagle0600 · November 05, 2008, 06:17:11 PM

To the earlier-posed question of what Abel was trying to do earlier:

I believe he was trying to work up the courage to zip out from under-cover, drag Devin back into cover, and heal him enough that he doesn't die. I think any claims that he knew anything at all about soul-stealing can be pretty-much discounted (apart from knowing that certain creatures can do it).

Naldru · November 05, 2008, 09:34:10 PM

I don't think that Abel was trying to steal a soul. I agree that he was trying some sort of healing magic. But there is a possibility that it didn't work correctly. He might have been able to stop the soul from leaving and moving on but not able to put the soul back in the body.

Eagle0600 · November 05, 2008, 09:40:26 PM

The way I saw it, he had only just managed to work up the courage when Devin died.

AmigaDragon · November 05, 2008, 10:51:26 PM

Working up the courage, yes. Got it worked up (though late), perhaps not. And if he was hearing Devin's dying thoughts, that may have slowed down his resolve as an unfamiliar experience to filter through (interference).

Eagle0600 · November 05, 2008, 10:59:10 PM

But basically, what that means is that he didn't do anything. Which still leaves us with a dead Devin.

Yes, but it's not nice to post about Amber's typos.

In fact, I think it's even in the rules. Amber prefers to be sent an email or a PM. And since it's just a throwaway image, I suspect she figured "sod it" and left it that way.

It's fixed now, though...
