Title: 11/21/07 [DMFA #844] - She's a hump, what?
Post by: Sienna Maiu - M T on November 21, 2007, 02:33:04 AM
Interesting, I see no mauling, how amusing that she's been hanging on for awhile, I imagine this means that it really is just a "silly grudge"

Also, best of luck on your excursion Miss Amber :)

Nope. Total blank slate. Anything they learn from the previous would have to be told to them or in handy dandy book format. :V

Something I'm wondering now is how long does a Fae usually live before deciding to die?  I mean, it's a big multiverse out there.  There's so many things to do.  Though I suppose in the end, unlimited power would get a bit stale.

You know, I kinda hate it when people say stuff like this.  No one has ever had unlimited power, so you can't even begin to guess at what it's like or how long you could go on before you'd get so bored you're willing to kill yourself.  It's a state of being far beyond mortal comprehension.  Just try to write a list of EVERYTHING you could do with such power and such a vast space to explore... the list alone will take you years to write.

Now, maybe vast powers with a puny mind would get stale.  There's nothing worse than someone with no imagination at all.  Creativity is the key.   :3

Oh, fairly quickly, I would imagine.  Just remember, power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

:erk I just had the mental image of a corrupted, evil fae.  It's not pretty!  Amber, maybe you could have one of them show up fairly soon to be the villian!

Which actually brings up a question I've had... are the genders set as well, or could you at any point in time have an unproportionate amount of males to females?

Something I'm wondering now is how long does a Fae usually live before deciding to die?  I mean, it's a big multiverse out there.  There's so many things to do.  Though I suppose in the end, unlimited power would get a bit stale.

You know, I kinda hate it when people say stuff like this.  No one has ever had unlimited power, so you can't even begin to guess at what it's like or how long you could go on before you'd get so bored you're willing to kill yourself.  It's a state of being far beyond mortal comprehension.  Just try to write a list of EVERYTHING you could do with such power and such a vast space to explore... the list alone will take you years to write.

You know... I've thought about this every so often ever since that episode of Voyager with the Q. I don't get just how a person who is immortal with unlimited powers can get bored. I mean really, if you actually have experienced everything, don't you think it's about time to wipe your memories clear so that you can do it again?
And honestly, circumstances change, things can never really be the exact same as they once were, there is going to be at least one element different in the world, you can't stop time in a place and have it forever be the same, everything around it in the world is different. Things always change.

Just like, the less sleep I have the more my postings change into non-sensical ramblings

Sure, no one's ever had it, but half the fun in life are the mistakes one makes.  I mean, with unlimited power there'd be no mistakes unless you make them on purpose.  It's the creativity I think that would keep things interesting for a few thousand years or so maybe.  I mean, gee, Mab has probably enjoyed a good Pokemon battle or two with her imagination (old comic reference).  But yeah, you're right, creativity is key, but come on.  If you could just snap your fingers and destroy a universe, would you be enjoying your dimensional rampage :p

The problem was, the Q weren't limited by time - hence the great time chase.  ("Captain, I don't think the ship will survive the birth of the universe.")  He had exhausted just about everything he could ever think of, changed circumstances included.  That's why they had to fight a full-blown civil war for anything appreciably new.

Ooh, Fae civil war... that would be something.

Something bad.  "This is the way the world ends - not with a bang, but..."

Okay, I'm convinced that this could be good, but a writer's block is in my way.  Can someone finish that for me?

I'm wondering if the adorable airhead even knows about her husband's less then stellar sanity. Although then again I'm also wonder if his sanity was just a ruse to get to Jy and that Rose's "Albanion's a nut' story was just a part of the ruse.

Really? I totally thought that had already come up :B
(and no, I wasn't thinking about that when I made the title, she just seemed sort of... hump-esque, just sitting there)

Alright, so here's the original by The Black-Eyed Peas (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=er3Uzdevgno)
And for moar rediculous - Alanis Morissette (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W91sqAs-_-g) (it honestly is a little creepy/weird at first, but then expect to laugh)

It actually inspired me to draw something once.
