The_Sibelis has been banned. Obviously they were unhappy with the admins here, and should feel free to find places where they can feel more comfortable.overall? Good luck with What Follows.
Overall, friends? Read the Precepts. Follow the Precepts. Be civil. Have fun.
~Blaze as Mod.
I am going to make this really clear. I and the other mods will not tolerate rule breaking and general antisocial behaviour.your perspective is quite colored. You are not modding here, you are closing ranks and othering those who are not part of your monkey sphere.
We don't have the time or patience for it. I am not going to spend all my time warning people.something that should indeed be done, i fear in your haste you have overlooked some in favor of those you prefer.Quoteyou do not, you do not.Be kind and courteous to each other, read the rules and precepts and Rules of Don't again. I advise everybody to do that just to be clear on everything.
Most people here are very well behaved and I won't have it ruined for them. [/b]there. There is the reveal of your corrupted intentions. You don't care about the quality of the group, that it deserves to exist or not.
If he can no longer capture it, then he doesn't have it...to express myself. Which is allowed here. What is the point of this particular comment? To harass? That's specifically not.Nor will he have it..
So what exactly is the point of saying why he couldn't..
How exactly does the ability to capture a beam of sunshine in a hanky turn into a man on fire?Quotenow your willfully being ignorant. Here I'll give you exactly what you want right here right now. [Comment removed for rule breaking]-mod team[Comment removed for rule breaking]-mod team. This place needs to come down just as much as the white council does.
Maybe you think you replaced it, but with the loss of Susan Harry's happiness was kaput! You see that's what is behind the ability to catch that old sunbeam.. Happiness is seems is a vital component, like trying to do a tracking spell without... Well, you get the point.. Really?
Except she wasn't just "repeating" it.actually that's a Symantec trap pulled before. An considering your alway the co-conspirator.. 👀 you rallying to her defense is less than anything to me.
For one thing, you used a specific jargon term, "aspect" (his aspect of happy light fire) which (depending on who is reading, and how much they know of the "extended canon") might be taken specifically as a reference to game-mechanics from the Dresden Files Roleplaying Game, where "aspects" are a Really Big Deal, and only change at "milestone" events.
For another, she was explicitly disagreeing with you (more to do with his own emotional state... than any floodgates he opened).
Harry states I believe that after Susan was half turned and went away that he was never able to capture sunshine in a hanky again.so, after Susan was changed, an he unleashed his passion and outrage, he couldn't do the hanky? 🤔 most auspiciously what i said...
It has more to do with his own emotional state, which though he is more at peace now, the unhappiness remains, than any floodgates he opened.the emotional state of a man on fire?
Harry states I believe that after Susan was half turned and went away that he was never able to capture sunshine in a hanky again.yoooi seriously, stip repeating exactly whf I just said likewise just didn't day it. Avoid me Mira. Periomd. Not to day
It has more to do with his own emotional state, which though he is more at peace now, the unhappiness remains, than any floodgates he opened.
Harry's motif in GP was fire, more so BECAUSE of the scene and it's related emotional response I thinkcome to thunk it, that might be why he couldn't do the pocket full of sunshine after that specifically. He closed his aspect of happy light fire when he opened the floodgates of the metaphorical Man on Fire.
Pyro fuego pyro. Can be translated with his intentions to do more. Say, HOT PASSION FIRE.
Harry has chosen his path, no one walked it for himI could say much on this topic, I have a fairly evolved tree of theory on it. But my idea for dresden isn't that he's a new being.. but a new identity for an older group of archetypes. A swirl, the easiest I think to see is the similarity of the 7 sins an seven laws. They are unbalanced. Twc's forgiveness saves from sin, but harry... isn't so nice. He'll be more weighty in his jurisdiction.
Before-and-after, for Merlin, is virtually impossible to determine from our information.it also occurs to me that we don't know if the original merlin... was originally named Merlin. Could be a late game identity (I've always thought so, mostly because I became a role)
Is he? Everyone says that yet outside of a few short stories he is the only narrator we've got. So is he a liar? Just stupid? Maybe senile when he wrote his story? Unless you got an alternative story out there..s'matter of fact. We can rehash the slipping timelines theory anytime, just be ready to get dirty in there lol.
What has that to do with anything? Harry is a starborn, he would be so whether he was an orphan or not.and what does THAT have to do with anything?
As far as his names go as Harry explains back in Fool Moon, it isn't the names themselves that would give Chauncy power over him, it is giving him, his names.. Harry was careful even to change the inflection of how to say the names he did give him to try and prevent Chauncy from having power over him.. Didn't matter if his name was John Jinglehimer Smith, or Harry David Copperfield Dresden, it was giving his name or part of his name that gave Chauncy power over him and what he bargained for.and? You're losing me here. Let's try to stay on the topic of whom could have contributed his names please. Like a mother and father might.🤷♂️
So what if they did? Harry's name in of itself has no power, at least up to this point it hasn't shown itself to have power of any kind or protection.first you call up the exact point, more names is more insulation and then completely ignore that very simple supposition. The original purposes of naming, not just in the DF, but historically, biblically even. That's part of why it's your Christian name. 👀 So ya don't go giving yourself over to demons.
Whether Malcolm did or didn't give him those names unilaterally doesn't matter. The name, Harry, in of itself has no power or protection, nor David, nor Copperfield, nor Dresden, what gives power is that they are his names.what? I think its happening again where the correlation questions needed asking for clarification instead of jumping to wrong conclusions. None of that is Germain in response.
Oh I think he was more clued in than you think, at least the importance of the conception, even if he didn't fully understand. This is hinted at both by Margaret herself during Harry's soul gaze with Thomas in Blood Rites and when Lash begins to tell him about his power over Outsiders in White Night. It takes two to make a baby, and that's even more important in the case of a star born.
So are you saying that Jim stole the idea from Star Wars?pointing out the loosest of tropes existing elsewhere is not 'stealing'. Honestly, the things people focus on...
Even if he did, Harry was born before the prequels to the original Star Wars trilby came out, the first one 1999. So yeah, possible, but at the same time unlikely. Just as likely that Malcolm a vanilla human stage magician would name his son after a well known and I imagine admired stage magicians, Harry Houdini and David Copperfield. In fact I believe Harry said that back in Storm Front.. Now Malcolm could have lied to him about that, but what would be the point.Harry the unreliable narrator with a very confusing backstory even without the constant shifts?
