A ton of people is only like a dozen people.

@VoxSomniator and that's about all I have! What do you think?

@VoxSomniator because the more adept mages will set up stalls where anyone can come and get changed however they wish--Akʔan natives can use the Reshaping instinctively, but outsiders are unable to make use of it at all, in general

@VoxSomniator they take off these body parts (Akʔan life is all modular! Because I'm me.) and assemble a new being from them. Since every being starts out with a copy of their parent's brain, they have an ancestral memory thing going on.

The natives, I should mention, take the form of traditionally twelve-limbed marbled-polecat-like beings, which are capable of using any of their limbs as either arms or legs as the situation demands.

The Longest Day is quite a tourist attraction, not least

@VoxSomniator (the transformative Blue Flame basically supercharges the natural healing and restorative effects of life magic so that things are healed before they're even damaged, basically). The locals call this period the Longest Day, and it's the only time they are able to reproduce: their method of reproduction is simply to use the combined magic of Akʔan and the Blue Flame to grow new body parts, then

@VoxSomniator Now, perhaps the most interesting thing about Akʔan is that for roughly five earth days of its about-thirty-earth-day orbit the planet is _inside_ the Blue Flame. the Blue Flame itself is also a manafount, of mutative magic in this case. The interaction of the two manafounts protects the planet from suffering any damage from this passage through the Blue Flame

@VoxSomniator​ oh right, I was going to tell you about Akʔan (yes it's intentionally awkward to pronounce)

So in this universe, there's a binary star system with several planets, some habitable and some not. The locals call the stars the Red Flame (the larger red one) and the Blue Flame (the smaller blue one). Akʔan is a lush planet in an improbably tight orbit around the Blue Flame; the reason it's not a scorched wasteland is the sheer amount of life magic on it; the planet is a life manafount

by the way where do I report a bug here? I found some weird stuff with filters the other day filtering out things they shouldn't possibly be able to match and no one ever answered my question about where to report the bug

kind of just. frustrated about that.

Aaaagh someone just went on a rant at me about how hydrocarbon fuel is intrinsically better than electric vehicles (relating to the recent Tesla announcement) and how it'll never catch on and solar power doesn't have a chance and hey we're probably going to have fusion power in the near future and @.@ they apparently think anyone who is a proponent of solar is a "retard" (their words, not mine) and they don't accept that fuel prices will keep rising

what exactly is #lrt?
