Instead of writing that...post out, could you have not written out something substantial. Say maybe the Pope's reaction to Vlad, and him relaying the information to the people on the ground. That would have actually advanced the story.


I'd say it advanced the story more than Vladimir torturing some random guy to death. Case in point: my post showed that there is a large flaw in the lesser clones in the Collective, namely that they are too much like humans. Omega and Mentar showed us that they can become proud and furious, while Sigma and Xi showed us that they can long for freedom and love as well. It adds an entire new depth to the Nasagori clones, a depth scarcely explored.

And my post showed something that I think wasn't shown in Vlad before. Before, Vlad enjoyed battle and didn't care if he killed anyone. Now with him fully synched with Wrath, he actually enjoys causing pain and he enjoys the thrill he gets from the torture he gives. That shows a fundamental shift in Vlad that could affect everyone. Now he has no qualms about killing, betraying, and torturing people to get his way. Say he wanted to control Dugal and Snow, he would go after Melody. Before he wouldn't go after children, now he doesn't care and would harm Melody to get others to bend to his will.

This is good character development for Vladimir, and I for one support this tonal shift in character to reflect wrath and his inner sadistic daemon breaking free of his shotty morals.
Fear can motivate a man to do many things, but respect can dictate his every action.
A captain deals in tactics. A colonel deals in strategy. A general deals in logistics.

Thank you :)
Now I can actually let loose with the guy. Cause the guy is essentially a villain. At any other time he would probably team up with Rome to hit the Americans in a synchronized two-front attack. Hell, he might still do that. You never know.

Essentially. Vlad is a loose cannon and no one but the Sin of Pride and Lust can even hope to even hold him back. And even that is a challenge for Mary.

Right. Anyway, here's a heads up.

My next post will be about Ansed in Abaddon. It may or may not include Bismarck's reaction to Vlad's answer, which should be brief. The post after that will feature Harold kicking Dugal's ass, and mayhaps a brief section featuring Melody bending flowers together with Gerald like there ain't no tomorrow (which reminds me that I am yet to shove my boot up LoLi's ass for not posting.) The post after that will feature part two of Snowflake's super secret spy adventure in Germany.

This heads-up should ensure that nobody starts asking me questions like 'oh my gawd Aggy-chan, why did you not reply to my post!?!?!?~desu'

Actually, Agadar's post was picture perfect, capturing the views of the lower clones. There are no flaws in the clones. Everything they did is perfectly acceptable, even leaving The Collective. Yet there remains a social taboo on such things among the lower ranks.

College is the best. Especially at WVU. Those who are American will understand. 8)

Though I would perciate it if everyone can make sure they're putting time stamps on their posts. We don't need to do FOG1 again where people teleport across time and space for no apparent reason.

I'm 28, and when I go to school, I go there to learn, not to party. You are there for an education, not to party your way into the gutter for the rest of your life.

Don't worry man. I know that. But college is also a time to let your inhibitions loose and find out who you really are. Not purely studies.

Now, when you say a fistful of Reality, are you referring to a superman style fistful of reality, or an Incredible Hulk style fistful of reality.

Yeah, you're looking at the product of one such encoun- SHIT, I'M EXPOSED!

*dive in the bushes*

*crawl out when I realize that is where Zark is sleeping*

Well... let me talk about my last couple days: I spent them up state with some people I had never met in person, had a grand time, then nearly Over Dosed on pure caffeine brownies, resulting in an increased heart rate, heat flashes, intense stomach pain, general pain, loss of my normal connections to reality, and weakness...

That was not too fun, but I have been fighting it back, and continue to be working on my needed posts, and can only ask for more patience
