Only on this forum would someone perform a detailed analysis on the functionality of an arch.

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
It's good to get back the adventures of the Order of the Stick, fearlessly led by Roy Green-Around-The-Gills. Seriously, lesser restoration is a level 2 spell.

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
It's impressive how H&D moved from "You did hurt me, I hurt you, now we're even" to "Let's stay civil for our son" (with a hint of vitriolic friends when they insulted each other god) to... well, she will remain in his hometown, will live with his mom, he asks her to save his mom if needed, she already is annoyed by her mom in law, with him basically agreeing that his mom is a bit... invasive.
This is practically being a wife and a husband, just without the papers and the sex.
Fun fact: some years ago I read a research about the reasons that make couple break or create tensions; ideological, political or religious differences (as here might be being LG vs CN) were the last of the reasons, the heavy ones were discussions about the management of the house and its finances, jealousy, and petty things like snoring, different tastes in food, music, shows -with fights over the tv remote control- and so on.
So if Durkon returns back in one piece and manages to stop to snore (afair Belkar said D snores quite a lot), he might have still a chance with H.

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
I don't think either of them wants that and I don't think either of them should pursue that. Civility and slightly vitriolic friendship is as good as it gets for them, basically because the way each operates goes beyond mere ideology. Then again, Durkon seems to be learning to operate in a saner fashion...

Better hope she doesn't scry on you either.

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
You know you go and change your profile picture so no one mistakes anyone else with you, and now I mistake you for someone else.
EDIT: This wasn’t at all a response to the specific post besides the fact that this was (mostly) something I agreed with and this was the first time I saw you post since the profile picture change and thought it was some random poster and then realized it was actually you.Last edited by Schroeswald; 2019-11-08 at 10:12 PM.

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
My new favorite store-bought ice cream is this:
https://cool.haus/product/ice-cream-...-cookie-crumb/
Although my new favorite local ice cream is this:
https://www.sweetcowicecream.com/
I don't think any of that is likely. The "mutiny" was pretty well quelled when Bandana assured the crew would get paid; only Andi continued to be a problem. And I'm not even sure how many frost giants were left, but it doesn't make sense for Thrym to send them now, even if they could get to wherever the Order is going.
Now a cliffhanger, sure.
I think we might get two or even three strips, but we are very close-- and it could easily be done in a double or triple strip. I just think we're gonna get some kind of Good Guys roundup on the airship; depending on how much needs to be said, that could take more than one strip. And I'm pretty confident we'll get some kind of cut to the North Pole before the end. I think the cliffhanger is likely to be Team Evil finding the Gate, but I could be wrong.

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
You guys have such interesting ice creams and sodas.
Well, not specifically anyone. This is, after all, a generic-ish avatar. That said, D.One said he'd check for a specific soda I wanted to taste again in Brasília (I live in Belo Horizonte) and maybe send me some. So, as a nice gesture towards him, I decided to change my avatar so he'd not be mistaken for me due to my slightly controversial views.

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
Extremely unlikely. The last strip of a given book tends to have some kind of whammy cliffhanger and/or a warm or witty send-off, followed by a "The Order of the Stick will return on [DATE]." text-on-black panel at the end.
We will all know when it's the last strip of the book.I prepared Explosive Runes before writing this signature.

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
Yeah, it was a joke, mostly.
Nonetheless, I wouldn't completely ignore the chances.
After all H was very interested in D before that he sent her back home.
And D seemed to be very pleased by H (it is debatable if he heard that she was a cleric of Loki, anyway at the time he had very few ranks in "knowledge religion", so maybe he heard that and only now he realizes that staying with her would be impossible).
They did break up mostly because their different views on "a dwarf right to happiness", but D's view on that point has changed. Not so much to reach H's level, but enough to mirror H in a debate with Sigdi.
Said that, yeah, the chances are slim: we have already two couples in the comic (E+Ha, Roy+C), and maybe we will reach three, if it is true the theory that Minrah is lesbian (in that case I bet on Minrah+Bandana).Last edited by Dr.Zero; 2019-11-09 at 06:50 AM.

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
I like it!
My only trouble is that we know that Roy's true name is Maurice, as revealed by Durkon to Durkula/Yeerkon/Jerkon/Nokrud/Durkoff/Darkon. Maurice Greenhat has a really nice ring to it, and would be a fun forum in-joke. I mean.
R. Maurice Greenhat, the polite, intelligent, incredibly inebriated adventurer!

Re: OOTS #1185 - The Discussion Thread
It's probably normal that I'm more reassured that Sigdri is watching over Kudzu than the fact that Hilgya is.
No worries, Durkon. Ma is gonna watch over those two like a Beholder. Probably some extra-eye variant kind.
