  1. @drown See, I said, you have a gay mountain story—how was it called again? 😜
  2. Haven't watched this one yet—would you recommend it? So you want me to ask drown to keep Mark dead and only bring Osiris back in someone else? You heard him, @drown 😜 Direct enough, @akascrubber? 🤪
  3. Well, you never stop learning! Thanks for the discursion, Anton! Well, MS Word has its UX nightmares just as well. But OpenOffice/LibreOffice unfortunately doesn't perform well either. And who hasn't screwed up in school when opening a LibreOffice Impress presentation with MS PowerPoint and everything is broken all with a sudden, even though, both formats should essentially be compatible? And similar to what Apple does with cables and sockets, Microsoft follows the principle of "embrace, extend, and extinguish". But when it comes to editing texts, no office suite offers any real tool for this. Sure, you can write in both, but real editing capabilities are quite limited. I'm happy to be neither 😅 but fulfilling the cliché nonetheless
  4. Sebastian *kisses Mark* drown: "No! No! No! You were supposed to slap Mark in the face! Read your script!" Sebastian *cheekily*: "I changed it." drown *disappointed*: "But I wanted violence" Sebastian *loved-crazed*: "But … but … Mark is so … I just had to … look at him!" drown *annoyed*: "Yeah, he's cute, we get it. But it's in the script. You have to do it. There needs to be violence. That's how you are. I wrote you this way!" Sebastian *aggressively staring drown down*: "If you don't cut it out, I gonna give you violence!" drown *defensively*: "Okay, okay. Go ahead. However you say." Dang it! 😂
  5. I don't (shame on me) but I'm about to And I happen to know whom to ask for one 😉
  6. Here in Germany, they are more like the go-to choice for artists (primarily musicians and graphic designers)—well, and people who desperately need to show that they have the money to buy these damn things.
  7. Why am I not surprised by the brand? ^^
  8. It was another being “imbued” with powers carrying the label Wepwawet. Grey is Grey, Wepwawet is just the name he carries because powerful. Following that logic, it would be possible to bring back Osiris, but not Mark—enough for Chronos and the Constructs, but not enough for the others.
  9. I guess, nobody in his family takes The Slow One™️ entirely serious, so he isn't invited to the adult table, so to speak 🤷‍♂️
  10. I'd say, we let you take us to Wonderland anytime 😉
  11. Let alone the editor not thinking
  12. This gotta be (unfortunately) Amazon if any, since they bought the franchise alongside with MGM. After the acquisition, fans are waiting for Amazon to make a move to continue the franchise with a new series. And despite former staff members announcing their interest and having ideas, there's no official comment on it, yet. And "Oregon in the Fall" erases an episode for each new chapter 😱 Why can't we just buy more brain storage? ^^

    Chapter Five: Miles

    He came more out of the blue than you can possibly imagine by now 😉
  14. You apparently haven't watched the whole series, otherwise, you'd know, that it doesn't stop there 😉 So, this is what you choose series to watch by? 😲 And yes, this series is worth a rewatch anytime 👍 I checked the names of some system lords yesterday and had to admit, I forgot this and that already 😅
  15. I do like Netta, but this one is a little too mainstream, without any edges. (Gosh, it was hard to find the version where I liked his performance best 😅)
  16. But the Isis/Osiris storyline was quite weak in my opinion. However, I thought, Yu was quite cool. And Ba'al proved to be a real PITA for SG-1 ^^
  17. I could throw in a few suggestions 😉
  18. You are so lucky, I translated one of my stories and wrote the other once in English right from the start, when I moved over here to GA from QP 😜 And then—probably way more recommendable—there's Gemini, I read over there, that the author simultaneously posted in English over here. It was another being “imbued” with powers carrying the label Wepwawet. Grey is Grey, Wepwawet is just the name he carries because powerful. So, there's the possibility of, let's say, two Wepwawets meeting, yet not in the same reality?
  19. Neither the universal translator from Star Trek, I suppose. Are there even replicas in other realities aside from the Prime? Maybe, even divergent incarnations of the gods 🤔 When there was a Wepwawet in the past in Ancient Egypt—assuming, Grey didn't time travel, or whatever shenanigans Chronos has in store—but this was another "instance" of Wepwawet? Yes and no. Its contents, yes, unfortunately. Someone taking his legacy with them in a rather … egotistical fashion. But the spirit was carried over to what is now Queerpoint. Some of the original contents have been restored, but most is gone for good—we couldn't bring back everything out of the ashes, so to speak.
  20. Well, Stargate … … when it comes to mythology ^^ You tell me 😂 Can we be sure of either given by how much—or little—information you've given us thus far? The "god names" can either reference to more of a concept or a designation/placeholder name for the prophecy linked to a specific role and its accompanying powers since the actual name wasn't known yet by the time of writing than a being itself, so there wouldn't be two entities of some kind reference to a "higher" entity—a spirit, if you will—that incarnates into a human vessel (similar to the Maia in Tolkien's legendarium). That would explain why Chronos always refers to them as "who calls themself so-and-so"—wait, didn't we have that conversation before? By the way, do all wolves have distinct names or only those of gods, as wolf and "human" are two but one—a duality? So did you. By writing the story. That must be—in your words—rewarded. Never be too revealing on the internet 😉 I'm well-aware of that fact since Chronos mentioned that, yet, I couldn't fit everyone in as of how, so the loose ends are listed below with a question marks. They weren't meant as additional Constructs. Athani and Mikael are siblings. I could say the same about your lore ^^ Besides, you should have seen me in the German community where I commented stories 😉😅
  21. What's Mark's reputation in the pack? Did it suffer similarly to Grey's? Though, Grey has the advantage, that he's the (future) alpha. It seems like Luis and Beatrice have been on the same page about this, or was it just in the aspect of Mark? But the Constructs or powers beyond are not the titans from Greek mythology, are they? Reminds me a lot of Stargate's Goa'uld 🤔😂 I mean, he probably only wanted to get rid of Osiris rather than Mark. Additionally, to elements and such, Constructs might be linked to them: # Construct Purpose Element Color Title Profane name Entity name Task Notes First Theodore locked away there Second The Center of Truth allows reality to settle Custodian of Artifice Edna Athani Third The Veil of Sorrow allow reality to age Mark Osiris holds reign over all emotion Fourth Fifth Sixth Inari holds Inari's Citadel Seventh Time Custodian of Pace Chronos Seventh Time Custodian of Pace?

Genea eternal dance of Pyre ? ? Water Blue Sebastian rain (to extinguish the Pyre)? ? ? Luna Some call it "casting a spell over someone", some may call it "Narcissism" 🤷‍♂️ Updated version below: Construct Warden # Name Purpose Power Realm Profane name Entity name Title Element Scent Color Relation Magic affinity/power Notes First ?

  22. Yeah, I liked Hugh's dedication, too. Nope, first part, My Friend and Protector mentioned the Jaguars. There was also a crossover with Reggie: Matt’s New Friend in that one. I’d have to make a sequel to that one too, to do it again. It would also be the hell of an announcement if it happened WITHIN another story as a crossover 😉 In real life, sure, but where would be the fun with that in fiction? 😉 The personnel will be happy, having to dispose all the leftover food ^^ Now, I can relate more to Brandon, knowing, we worked in the same industry sector, developing software in aviation—well, somewhat 😅 That reminds me of the "a child is listening" speech of Mary Griffith, as depicted in Prayers for Bobby:
  23. Well, they were the ones telling Mark to come home with them. Okay, so, Mark kinda owes Luis—or thinks, he does—and felt like he just had to do this to Grey. But still … Furthermore, this explains, why Luis sent Mark to bring back Grey. The message of Mark's "death" might be harder for him than Grey might imagine 🤔 Apparently, Beatrice knew about Luis turning Mark and was in on it. I mean, both Luis and Grey fulfilled part of the prophecy by turning Mark and Dave respectively. Does the prophecy state, who has to turn whom? I mean, why go to such lengths as to hide Dave, when he has to be turned just like his brother, if that's not the case? You mean, he needs to come back to do what he did to Sebastian to everyone in the pack? Well … Come on, that would be too simple. I’m not that easy. 😅 Oh, everyone has their own kink? Dang … I guess, that kinda depends on your writing style. When you plan everything out beforehand, using character sheets and whatnot, this is less likely to happen, but if you, like me, plan only the core story and characters beforehand, the story needs to grow beyond that during writing, like developing branches and leafs on a tree. I mean, who doesn't? Dave, Sebastian, Fiona, Dan, Dave-drown?
  24. You mean, he needs to come back to do what he did to Sebastian to everyone in the pack? Well …
