I had a hard time coming up with a word list here, so if I missed anything and you want an explanation, just comment and I'll answer and edit it into the list!

Iggy's setting is the Warhammer 40k universe, but with a lot of stuff that's only headcanon in the group I play with (we have a hard time taking things seriously so it gets kind of silly ( Read more... )

Make a list of things that scare you-- or have scared you in the past, perhaps.

1. Um, all the things you're supposed to be scared of, I guess. Xenos and daemons and whatnot. I think 'nids are the worst kind I've run into so far. Tau are really creepy because they're almost shaped like real people, which is, like, blasphemous, eh, but 'nids are ( Read more... )

Give us 100 words about a voyage.

The troop transport is little more than a cargo bay fitted out with folding cots. It's packed full of teenagers with blond hair, Cadian accents, battle-worn carapace armor and frightened eyes: the latest group of Whiteshields chosen for graduation to full off-world Guard service. It's the first time any of them ( Read more... )

Tonight we invite you to tell us two versions of the same story.

1. To an officer requesting after-action reports from all squad leaders for independent corroboration
Corporal Ignace Jau, sir. I was called?
Yes, sir. As ordered we advanced toward the front in line formation. Heavy fire was sustained and the Emperor's Grace was given to four of Squad ( Read more... )

At last, by accident or design, you have that person, the one who stole your wife/killed your brother/destroyed your homeland/ate the last of your triple fudge ice cream helpless before you. Do you take your revenge? Or do you show mercy? and afterwards, do you think there will be second thoughts?

Mercy is a sign of weakness, ( Read more... )

Oh boy. Tests. This'll be fun then, Iggy thought wearily. The young guardsman stood obediently and automatically at attention, eyes forward and fixed on nothing, just waiting. Nobody had told him what this was for, who would be doing it, or, for that matter, where he was, but that was just standard, eh? "Ask not why, just do." "A good soldier obeys ( Read more... )

Oh, huh.  Memories of my mom, eh.  It's not like I don't have any, I mean mom raised us and all, I just don't think about it much anymore.  I got over being homesick, you know, and it's not like anybody's asked.  And anyway, I was just a kid, eh?  Don't really pay attention to your mom when you're little.

So my mom. Let's see, she was a lieutenant ( Read more... )

Give us a hundred words on your deepest, darkest… fantasy. (Or your pleasant, light-hearted daydream. Doesn’t have to be deep and dark.)

I don't really... want things that bad.

( metatext and icon explanation aka oh jeez Ignace you're so sad )

For today, we challenge you to share with us a picture of something (or perhaps someone) that frustrates you.
