honestly if we didnt hate the same people we would have a friendship based on nothing



Have you ever just wanted to tell someone flat-out what you think of them as a person? Does your roommate have this one quirk that drives you up the wall, like dripping apathy all over the kitchen sink? Sometimes all it takes to be the best person you can be is a dose of self-awareness, sometimes what it takes instead is a cluebat to the head... and sometimes they just have a stupid name you can never quite spell right.

For all this and more, have I got the meme for you!

THE LOWDOWN
i. Post a header with your character's name.
ii. Comment in-character to other people's headers. With what? Depends on your CR! Maybe they're a good person and really should keep on keeping on, maybe literally everyone can see they need to suck it up and confess already, maybe they'll change their wicked ways if just one extra person casts aspersions on their pompadour. Bring in examples if you want, as with any helpful critique. Be as creative as you like!
iii. Other characters will comment to yours, no doubt overflowing with well-meaning advice on how to be the best person they can be. Your character is free to respond. Excuse you, maybe despair is still in fashion?
iv. Feel free to assume there's a compulsion to speak their minds, if your character's not usually the type to give unsolicited advice.
v. A probably unnecessary reminder, but just remember, this is not a place for OOC crit! There are other, more appropriate channels for that.

I am certainly not so foolish that I expect them to do nothing or something in return. They do have to prove themselves before I continue to follow their orders. Why do you suppose I didn't kill more than the one?

Good. I am relieved to hear that you have some business sense. Still, do you really think the Null will be able to successfully control the Door? It is a magical artifact crafted by the gods' ancestors.

I believe there's a chance. We don't really know anything about them, so we can't declare one or the other, and they're not exactly in a position in which they can provide proof of it. The deities have certainly proven that they cannot, or perhaps simple will not, control the Door.

It might be far-fetched, but I do have a goal to achieve. Curufin's family, if they return home, they will die. If the Door suddenly pulls them away, that is likely what awaits them. And controlling that Door would mean taking them somewhere they could reside without that destiny.

[Even if it's without him at this point.]

Curufin values his family more than anything, and idly trying to wait for the deities to solve the puzzle is time wasted for us. If there's a chance that the Null can answer it, then I would like to see it.
