Defenders of Daybreak OT thread

Sapphires are my birthstone. I am rather fond of them. I might even give up my engagement stereo for those.....

Well, heck, orchid, I've got an extra ring....

I just want to say that Wired story was great. I assume it helped that I understood all the science behind it too... those are both very simple concepts. The vapor method especially, all it really takes is finding the proper combination of variables... though I'm sure Apollo is going to sit on that combination for as long as possible, unfortunately. It would be great if they released that data and finally took down "the cartel".

Hmmm. I wondered where everybody had got to.

Hi there! I found you! (waves madly)


Bandeeto and I were so busy having fun, we completely forgot that it was Valentine's day. We didn't remember about it until we got back online three days later and P'cat's thread was covered in it. (eeyuw)

Which says good things about how much fun we are having still being in love.

Sympathy hugs to those of you still looking for your perfect match, and kudos to those who have figured out how to do just fine without one.

Find the first one after you bought the second did'ja?

Heh, personaly, if I was proffessing my love and wishes to marry a girl, I wouldn't choose something that was going to be replaced in a couple years (like a stereo). If I was avoiding the "ring" approach, I'd probably go with something impractical yet symbolic, possibly something I made myself.

Then maybe a stereo.

Yep. The jeweler thoughtfully packaged the ring in a black velvet Shadowdancer1 case. Whenever I looked in the niche in my nightstand where I thought I'd stored the ring, it activated its Hide in Plain Sight ability: though I was looking directly at the ring case, I failed my spot check every time as it blended into the shadows.

Indeed, had the nightstand not had a warped back, and had I not looked in there one night with the lamp on, and noticed that the light shining through the back of the nightstand was strangely blocked in one location, I may not have found the ring until we moved. Thank god that dang shadowdancer fumbled its hide check -- curses that it waited to fumble until after I'd already bought a new ring.

(But the bit about trading it for a stereo was a joke, natch -- I'm hoping at some point to sell it on ebay or somewhere to finance a vacation).

So, Sialia, when can we expect another update in the Early Years?

 

[Wolfspirit]

Heh, I'm still waiting for updates of the DoD website to proofread

 

[Sialia]

So, Sialia, when can we expect another update in the Early Years?

Not until Piratecat posts up to a certain point. I have another chunk pretty much all finished, with illustrations even, but it can't go up until certain things occur.


And Wolfspirit--thatnk you for reminding me about a duty I have completely derelicted. I've been coming up with something else splendid to share with the boards--something new--actually two splendid new things--so the website kind of fell by the wayside--I should get back to it.

Just as soon as the new creative fetish cools a bit.

I'd change my title to "easily distracted by making shiny objects" if there was enough space.
