Re: Things happening in the Middle East

The read I got from what I was told was that there was flesh and blood under the armor scales. At least it sounds like he took a wound in what I retold above, didn't seem to slow him down too much though.

Re: I should have known

It was a weird fight as things have gone agaisnt the undead for me. My Blade and my Piece seemd to make efective hits, with visible damage. Heck my last shot even scattered bone and brain matter over the roof. But none of it seemed to really bother him more than a temporary inconvenience. Other und...

Re: Things happening in the Middle East

So I asked some questions of those who know some things over there and it turns out this guy may have been active for almsot a year. I haven't found any confirmation of American sightings of him, but apparently the locals know about him well. The local civilians call him the Dragon, I think for the...

Re: I should have known

Of course, he made the mistake of looking over the edge to watch me fall. I’d managed to snag the fire escape just before it got out of reach, so when he looked over, I was hanging there, waiting. I drilled him right between the eyes with a shot from my Piece. His head snapped backwards confirming ...

Re: I should have known

The corpse man and I made eye contact. “Just my luck” he muttered with a self-mocking laugh, then made a break for a fire escape. “No you don’t.” I brought up my Piece and opened up at the copse man as he clambered up the fire escape. I scored a few hits, slowing him down for a moment with my silve...

We continued like that for several hours.

It took a whil...

The full moon was hanging large in the sky by the time we got downtown. I directed Remy past the more fashionable, well-lit areas. The gentrification of the downtown core had forced the street people to the fringes around the downtown. As the prey moved, the predators would follow. So, to make the ...

I really should have learned by now that I am better off staying at home when the date reads Friday the 13th. I’ve been bitten, clawed, stabbed and shot on that inauspicious day. I’ve wound up arrested, hospitalized and committed on that thirteen times cursed day. So I really should have just staye...

Re: Chess and Friday the Thirteenth

Castling is also a defensive move that limits your mobility. You give up being able to react for the perception of a strong defence. However, that defence is still able to be penetrated and when it is, you have nowhere to run. I'm much more fond of using a Rook aggressively to eliminate my opponent...

So, two Friday the 13ths in as many months have passed without me getting arrested, beaten up or hospitalized.

Maybe it's because I've finally learned there are sometimes more important things to do than to go out looking for trouble every night.

Re: Destrution of ancient relics

No Hannah, I think you're thinking clearly.

In many of these cases we have organized groups perpetrating the destruction. We have also had the ability of our government to step in to prevent a number of these acts.

Someone, somewhere, is pulling strings to make sure this happens.
