[OOC] 'How does it feel to be different?' [Dioxide x Caits]

[MarshiestMallow]

It was...

I shall post...God knows when. Probably tonight before bed

[MarshiestMallow]

I feel bad.

I'll post now

[Dioxide]

Relax... :)

[MarshiestMallow]

Well.

Cody's development is taking a sharp turn it seems

[Dioxide]

That's very interesting!

It's amazing, reading the insights of many prolific and successful writers.

One of my (perhaps my ultimate) favourite, Brandon Sanderson, says that whenever he has an idea to write something, he always plans for at least 6 books ahead.

That's incredible foresight and planning

[MarshiestMallow]

Oh I have plans. It's just..:most of the time I just go with what...seems right. And bring plans ahead lol

I love Brandon Sanderson!

[Dioxide]

:DDDDD

[MarshiestMallow]

What is your favorite book of his?

I simply love him because when he took over the wheel of time books in an interview he said "I grew up reading these, and always wanted to write because of it, I never dreamed I'd get to actually write this series, so when I got the call I just couldn't say no!" And it reminded me of this little kid, getting his biggest wish come true and it melted my heart

[Dioxide]

If I ever have children, I plan to give them my Mistborn books :D

It was just an amazing journey, reading it from start to finish.

Just here in HK, I can't find a bookstore that sells any of the Alloy of Law books :(

[MarshiestMallow]

That as a fantastic series. I miss it

That sucks, can you order them online?

[Dioxide]

We can....

We just don't have credit cards and parents think I've bought too many books already hahaha

[MarshiestMallow]

Ah I see

You can never have too many books!!

[Dioxide]

hhahaha amen amen

I have the Reckoners series and Mistborn series

I want to read the Alloy of Law series and the Rithmatist!

[MarshiestMallow]

I don't know if I've read the reckoners...

Think I've read alloy of law though

[Dioxide]

I'd like to know how Cody's powers behave, i.e. rules of what he can and cannot, and the extents

If I shot a dart at Cody, where a) he did not expect it, and b) he saw it coming, what would happen?

[MarshiestMallow]

Hm.

Well. As long as it doesn't come directly at him, he wouldn't expect it. But if he sees this dark splash zooming towards him I. His generally light fill vision, he's going to know that something's coming towards him

[Dioxide]

So as long as he doesn't expect it, the 'coating' of light that he dons around his body does not activate, and therefore the dart will penetrate his skin?

[MarshiestMallow]

Indeed

[MarshiestMallow]

Although the dart would penetrate even with his defenses-it is just light after all, and therefor it isn't technically solid.

Kinda like water

[Dioxide]

Ahhh, okay okay

Just making sure. I like to think of the limits as to how our subjects' powers work
