  1. When a company has its future staked on a new product, a tepid response could mean disaster.
  2. Well, they undid thr future timeline of the wyrm and rewound time. They are also left with a beheaded corpse to deal with. Do they go into the mead business? It's also not clear if they killed the wyrm.
  3. Take care of yourself.

    Danger Zone

    What is this curse on Ryder's pack? This is the first mention of any curse. So Pembroke is a wolf, but he didn't recognize Ryder as his mate. Perhaps he isn't the one. He'll surely begin seeking Ryder as a threat. This fortuneteller spoke of research. I'm thinking it's for a university project, which would be why it's free.
  5. So we have two timeliness which seem to exist simultaneously. If they kill the worm, wil the future timeline unravel and return them to their own time?
  6. Deluge can also mean a heavy rain or covered up with something, as in deluged with work.
  7. I don't see how the injuries Norjia was described as receiving would be enough to kill her. Investing armed people whole isn't the brightest move. The whole living forever thing doesn't seem to have worked out so well for Domino.
  8. LOL temerity, audacity, hardihood, effrontery, nerve, cheek, gall, chutzpah mean conspicuous or flagrant boldness
  9. Meh. The difference between them is insignificant..

    Isn't his blunt honesty refreshing?
  11. Those were impressive battle scenes. Mercury's distraction was perfectly timed.
  12. If you take a deep dive into those words, you'll find temerity, chutzpah, audacity, effrontery, gall, nerve, brass, and many more are synonyms.
  13. I typically think of temerity in terms of extreme chutzpah or gall; as in a man killing his parents and then demanding mercy because he's an orphan.
  14. Knew the cane was more than a cane. The very fact there are guards means they are right and the dragon is vunerable.
  15. Scuttle gives an opportunity for some interesting word play. Scuttlebutt says pirates plan to steal the yacht's gold scuttles before scuttling her so they may scuttle away free and clear.

    Aboard the Abyss

    Gives a new meaning to 'belay that.'
  17. This is starting out much too easy. I feel the catch is looming ahead.

    Aboard the Abyss

    "I'm not planning on killing you. Not if you stay a good boy." It's a promise of sorts. The captain needs him. The captain is the loneliest man on a ship. Our protagonist is providing plenty of fuel for his own misery.
  19. Are you saying Squirrel might be squirrelly?
  20. Many times people are thought to be aloof or antisocial when they are only very shy. It's one of the great tragedies of life.
  21. Why do I suspect Norjia's new cane is more than a cane? It pays to have sharp eyes and wits. Now they know where one of the secret entrances is located. I doubt getting down will be as easy.
  22. I remember Moms, but only saw the more sanitized TV version of her act. Redd's act included Slappy White and another comedian I can't recall the name of, but similar to Jackie Mason.
  23. So many things at play, but at least they know Violetia is okay. Now they are closer to their mission, for better or worse.
  24. Of these, I only saw Redd Foxx live and a month later he was dead. Watching the audience was nearly as amusing as his act. Despite the XXX warning, some were expecting Sanford and Son humor, but it was very ribald.
  25. The reality of what they are facing is getting yo Periwinkle.
