@CoronaCoreanici @diodelass @starkatt Funny, it's Holy to Dragons because it's the last sacrifice of the biggest furnace they can think of.
@stevietrix But without all the Middle Management positions and Materialistic Status Symbols, how will the Bottom 50% of humanity express their inferiority issues?
No, Really, I'm dead serious. We can't just leave the Useless Angry White Boys running around. You can't educate the willingly ignorant, and UBI and Social Programs just make them More bitter and withdrawn.
Lets be honest, Capitalism is just propping up the lifestyles of Useless people on the backs of Workers.
tired: iron is harmful to fae because of unspecified magic intrinsic properties
wired: iron is harmful to fae because of its chemical properties
inspired: iron is harmful to fae specifically because it is physically the stuff of the human Industrial Revolution, a social restructuring event with broadly devastating effects on human adherence to the core values of the fae. for this reason, iron is suffused with a palpable curse that arises from its position as a symbol of human callousness.
@diodelass Kerithe: D: All of the Above, and there's the ferromagnetics.
And some of us can't stand the smell. I made peace with the stuff because I have to live with Tohri.
...I was Not Prepared for Stainless Steel. It's steel that Bites, steel that snaps cutters, burns drill bits and requires cross drilling and the Hot Saw to cut.
I'm a Fae that crosstrained in a CNC machine shop because Cheatcodes.
@diodelass And then there's our Housemate Duke, the Goddamn Titanium Dragon
@diodelass Yeah but it doesn't Tin Whisker either.
You ever tried to do SMT with lead-free, or tin wires with it? Stuff sucks.
@diodelass Iron Dragons are good with lead and tin. We're the best soldering techs
@diodelass In my personal experience, some faeries work really well with Aluminum.
Stainless steel is still an abomination to her though
Plurality / HRT
As a trinary plural system with genders that line up more with a Secret Of Mana main character list than anything normal, it's odd as hell that Estrogen has stuck 'The Boy' in front.
Again, it's a relative internal co-ordinate here. I'm from the Bishounen Dragon Tribe, where everyone's chefs and artists and musicians. I ended up good at cutting metal with my brain.
Not that any of us mind, just irritating that for everyone else they get their inner girl popping out, and for us, it means she can finally get some sleep.
@Tamakun @budgiebin@snouts.online I'll be okay. everything just kinda hurts.
Dresden Files Theory
The Well at Demonreach is actually a magical analogue to the Chicago Pile, the United States first nuclear reactor.
This means that the Biggest Autistic Wizard in the world in these books is in Charge of a gigantic magical nuclear reactor that uses Old Gods and Outsiders as Fuel Rods.
Southern Mass's local machine healer and part time witchdoctor.
Tiny motorcycles, magic potions, machine tools, progressive rock, trance states, and hand sharpened drill bits. Oh, and I read Tarot. Probably 18+ just to be sure.
