*Enters, does a little dance, makes a little love, and gets down tonight*

*Wanders in covered in hair-thin strands of ice, wearing a fedora and sunglasses*
Mmmmff-mmff-mmff-mmff-MMFF-mmff-Mmmff-MMF! -
*Wanders in in a donut-induced haze*
I love you all, yeah, yeah, yeah...
*Tries to hold your hand, but instead trips and falls into a yellow submarine* -
*Enters and does the Humpty Dance*
Because it's your chance to do the hump!
*Snags coffee and a donut*
It suddenly occurs to me that the official foods of Rookery are identical to the official foods of cops.
ARE WE COPS?
Oh my god we're so deep undercover even WE don't know we're cops!

It ought to be against the rules to play Parcheesi at all. It's indecent, is what. *Harrumphs indignantly*
-
I can't right now, I'm still tryin' ta catch mah hawg.
Sooooo-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! *Dashes off after the elusive porcine* -
(Just had to stop in and say this is effing brilliant.)

SCANDALOUS LIES!
Scrabble indeed. As if we were all fools.
Admit it, Fey. Admit the shocking and horrible truth!
YOU WERE IN THE BUSHES PLAYING PARCHEESI! *Accusatory finger* -
*Emerges from the thicket dressed as Dr. Livingston*
I'm alive, I swear! I've been back for almost a week now and haven't posted in a rookery thread... I'M A BAD PERSON! D: -
Oh, there is. That wasn't a "Pity meeee~" thing, that was a "This is why I missed last night" thing.
-
So I wasn't on last night because my father assaulted me and kicked me out of the house.
I swear, it's like the universe is conspiring against me or something. >.>;; -

Universally speaking, I'd guess the character that the most players know is the guy puking in the corner in Pocket D. He's hard to forget.)) -
I would like to nominate Seethers. Partly because he's amusing and awesome, but mostly because he scares me and I want something to appease him with so he won't sting me anymore.
-
Hmm. This is discouraging.
I'd like to apologize for the three-month leave of absence- as soon as I got internet access again, my account died.
If there's still any regular activity-ing amongst these folk, perhaps you might post and let me know where we be? -
It's okay, your brain probably just had a minor short-circuit.
-
Swimming's easier. Also they eat more.
And have thyroid conditions. No really. From their mother's side. -
No. I hate the syrup bottles. Turn my hands purple.
*Snags a donut*
You alright there, mate? -
I call ringleader!
*Twirls an ice moustache, dons an ice-top-hat, and begins waving an ice-baton*
LAY-DIES AND GEN-TEEL-MEN! GATHER 'ROUND, GATHER 'ROUND, FOR THE ROOKERY BROTHER'S CIRCUS OF WONDERS!
FEAST YOUR EYES, AS OUR DARING LITTLE SACKPERSON ATTEMPTS A QUINTUPLE BACKFLIP OFF THE TRAPEZE, WITHOUT A SAFETY NET, AND LANDS HARMLESSLY IN THIS ORDINARY BOX OF DONUTS!
HURRY, HURRY, HURRY, THE SHOW'S ABOUT TO START! -
Quote:We only object to hypocrisy when it doesn't work in our favor.Originally Posted by Stalemate
*NB - It's interesting to note that, if the hero is castigated against for his failures in living up to his ideals, the anti-hero or villain is not chastised in the least for failing to live up to theirs when, say, they take personal risk to rescue someone or anonymously help another. And yet both have acted against their professed ideals and are hypocrites in that sense.
Which is in itself a rather potent example of hypocrisy. Appropriate, no? -
Curses! If only my incredibly short-sighted, brash, and unenlightened biker were there, she'd see right through-
Um, nevermind. As you were... -
Quote:I would think so, except I believed that the Nictus and the whole Light-Dark Kheldian Split was a recent phenomenon.Originally Posted by Danny D
Kheldians? Yes, weve heard of them. They were used in our stories to frighten our children into obedience.
If you dont go to bed now, the Nictus will eat you!
((will something like that do?))
Though I could very easily be mistaken. -
Quote:Well, possibly the demons aren't truly evil or slaves, but come on, who would willingly walk around in a shambling corpse?Originally Posted by Madam_Enigma
Well, think of it this way. Say you started out as a villain. You had a change of heart, but already bound the demons into your service. Or as a necromancer, maybe you don't bind spirits into the bodies you summon. Or they could be willing allies.

Quote:I think it's less about stereotypes and more about "I'm morally good, so I'm going to trap people's souls into rotting shells/ bind evil spirits to me and force them to do my bidding against their will."Originally Posted by Peacemoon
I think its amusing how people can see how robots could be programmed to do good things, but can't see how zombies or demons could be summoned to do good things.
Doesn't seem terribly moral, IMO. -
I will gladly give you a hamburger Tuesday if you pay me today.

Snaerr looked up at Sage, then down at himself, then up at sage again.
"How did we... um, mate? I don't know if you've noticed, but um..."
He gestured one long, illusory bony claw at Sage, then gestured at his ragged wings.
"Sort of got the makeover going."
He paused, then rolled his eyes.
"Oh, don't tell me. You can't see the... thing?"
