The Reawakening - Advanced, modern day, elemental magic RP

The pack twisted in the air momentarily as the bulk of its weight lifted from the ground. Tyko jostled it slightly, and then looked back into the truck, thinking and trying to lay order into things. Tonight should be a solid load, and there were a few things he would worry about if he left over night. Since most of this load was compact, some bulky items could be taken this trip. Settling the pack to the tail gate once more, he climbed back into the truck and plucked his best fly rod from the three rod holder that was secrured to the roof of the aluminum shell. Sliding it out, down into the corner of the tailgate and bed, he then reached up once more, rolled a section of old bicycle tire inner tube off of a knob on the padded aluminum brackets, and slid out the hard, black plastic rifle case for the Enfield.

It wasn't then he paused, how would he explain the SKS to Danny? Danny seemed to be quite aware of the danger the three faced, but it wasn't exactly Canadian law to consider firearms as acceptable for self-defense. He couldn't even pass it off as his deer rifle, as the Enfield was, by all respects, a better deer rifle. He thought again for a moment, as the ammunition he had for the Enfield was a couple boxes of heady-loads meant for Elk and Bear. He sighed and shook his head, looking over to Danny, "I brought my Lee-Enfield and SKS by the way. Wasn't sure where I'd be going, or what I'd be doing." He paused for a moment, not giving voice to the sudden rush of fear and worry that kept trying to shake him, "Mind if I bring the Enfield along on this run? Can't say I enjoy the prospect of running into old karhu just waking from her hibernation without it." Absent mindedly as he talked, he reached into one of the pockets of the dark-tan brown canvas jacket, and fished a shred of elf jerky free between his index and middle finger. Crouching slightly, he extended it down to the waiting raccoon who eagerly snatched it from his fingers.

Rolling the shred of dried and spiced meat in her paws while standing upright, Louhi did her usual routine of rolling it between her forepaws, inspecting the food item, giving a quick taste, and then finally settling down on her haunches to nibble at the offering. Tkyo straightened back up and looked to Mellie, realizing she probably would be worried about a man suddenly pulling out a rifle in this situation. "Sorry, karhu is bear, in Soumi, ah...sorry. Finnish," pausing for a moment to collect his thoughts into a somewhat rational order, he finished, "About now, bears are really starting to wake from their hibernation, and they're hungry." He wasn't sure how much she knew of the wildlife, so he defaulted to informative.

...I don't get it.

An amendment to the Castle Law Doctrine in which you are legally allowed to use acceptable force to prevent, or terminate a Officer of the Peace's actions if they are acting in excessive measures.

IE: If the Police kick in your door, without warrant, and you legitimately feel they are a threat to your life? You can legally return force against them.
If a Police Officer is using excessive force to arrest you unlawfully, or someone else, you may intervene. Such as if an Officer is curb stomping someone's head? Yeah. You can legally stop that. If an Officer draws their service pistol on a handcuffed man, who was sitting on the pavement? Yeah, you can stop that.

This amendment does not protect you if you are actually committing a crime, or if the Officers have a legitimate warrant for your arrest, nor the motions of force necessary to handcuff someone*.

*Breaking someones arm of course, is not part of those motions of force.

In the most plain of words: A while ago, an Indiana Judge ruled that Castle Doctrine effectively did not matter if it was the Police unlawfully breaking into your home, instead of anyone else. Supreme Court laughed at that. Police are now treated as if they were anyone else (Supposedly).

How does it feel to be wrong all the time

I honestly don't know. You have experience, why don't you tell me?

Cream cheese based frosting is pretty much the standard for red velvet cakes. The tastes work well together.

I have never had anything with cream cheese frosting of any kind, where I didn't despise the icing.

It just....really disagrees with my tastebuds. Then again, an ungodly amount of food stuffs disagree with my tastebuds.

My pictures that you've all been waiting for

Would have been great.

Except for cream cheese frosting.

Just no.

Possible Bug: Front Page not updating

As stated, the front page when I join the site isn't updating. Currently every section lists the last post a 1-3 days ago, as you can see here:



Running Firefox on Win7, have tried ctrl+F5 to try and avoid refreshing with cached items. No luck.

Is it a server thing? Or am I a one off, freak issue?

Spam Sector: The New Frontier

Ahh, no wonder. Never gave much of a shit about warhammer things. D&D, yes. WH...ehn.

Spam Sector: The New Frontier

....Never heard of him before. Is this one of those things that's after my time or something?
