Actually you're somewhat right in that his 'rawr I'm a horrible monster' thing was a charade - he overexaggerated in order to (as he percieved it) protect himself.

The real Xan is an odd mutable thing.

Hehe, you can only really figure out who your character is by playing them.

I'd think "perceiving the truth directly" would use Int rather than Cha.
Or maybe Exo if you have the right things in your head.
Empathy is an amalgamation of the intelligent ability to imagine things from another's point of view with the emotional talent of feeling things associated with that point of view. This is an intelligence, an intuition, and a charisma skill.

Oh god, oh no.
Guys.
The On Ship thread's title has changed.
Someone's gonna get a permadeath at least.

I guess it's my fault for making such a loaded post and asking piecewise to prematurely release a new title. I shouldn't had been so trigger happy with my use of puns. Waving around my pun shooter, discharging all shorts of high voltage puns, it's not so shocking that there was an overload that was impossible to contain and had to be released. But don't worry, all we have to do is remain positive and hope that piecewise doesn't smite me with a mighty thunderbolt.

But I wouldn't worry, I'm probably the one who's going to pay the bill for that electrifying current of puns. Worst that can happen is Flint doing something negative in front of the AM and her overreacting due to her recent troubles and accidentally blowing up half the ship.

That is, I wouldn't worry about the title. I would worry about you guys in the briefing room, you guys are toast.

Well, honestly, I wouldn't be that shaken if PW had just said something like 'Ohhh Paris you unlucky bastard' compared to this situation because PW only changes the title if a situation is turned into the worst possible outcome by bad rolls, he changed it during the ping pong battle, which had astounding displays of bad rolls, that time someone snuck that body merging pill into that one guy's character's tea, which, again, had bad enough rolls all around to get arguably the worst result possible.

Heh heh heh. I enjoyed it, and Baldman arguably benefitted from it too.

Well, I mean the worst situation possible, in the same way that the best possible situation for where a bullet has lodged inside you, that still isn't very good for you, is it?

On a related note: Persons suffering dementia, in particular Alzheimer's, experience a phenomenon in which they cannot find the appropriate and typical words to describe common things. As a result, their minds latch onto related words and phrases, and they often speak in unusual, though occasionally quite picturesque, ways. the example I remember reading is an elderly grandparent describing his very young grandchild as "the one who fills the room with tornadoes." Not wholly inappropriate, but there are many more confusing examples (probably). This phenomenon is known as "word salad."

The Shiva Worshiping scientists at CERN are using a particle accelerator to reanimate human corpses using the souls of the half human spawn of fallen angels.
Surely there must be a more efficient way to reanimate human corpses? I mean, I'm assuming souls of the half fuman spawn of fallen angels are kind of a rare resource, so there must be better applications for those.

I'm almost done with these videos. And it's a good thing too. My brain is starting to melt out my ears here.

Ah, so that was about those conspiracy videos you had to process for some assignment, right?

Well, it is material that ordinarily nobody sane is willing to properly engage themselves with. There is fun to be had with it in that sense.

Though if this was an assignment, damn. Whoever assigned it is a cruel, cruel individual in that case.
