Jesus FUCK this doesn't sound natural.

Sounds like a very large cat meowing to me. One of my cats sounds like that, though quieter. It's funny.

Folk on B12 seem to be quite sensible, for the most part. There seems to be more folk interested in saying "calm down, lads" rather than "THAT'S RIGHT GET STUCK INTO THE LYING BASTARD!"

It's quite pleasant.

There's also the issue of bosses pressuring their employees to skip their breaks, which is prevented by making them mandatory.

X breaks per time worked solves that problem, but I've seen bosses in this situation tell their employees "Oh yeah, you get a half hour lunch break 7.5 hours into your 8 hour shift" because they know plenty of people will go home early instead of sitting around to get $4. Though I think that effect is diminished a bit at higher pay.

Pfft. I never did that, I always sat in the canteen for half an hour, all set and ready to go. I'll happily sit and read the 'paper and get paid for it thanks.

"Oh Look the guarddog is unleashed. I am interested due To the quick murder before. Since then i fest You might kill me too.  Also I find IT interesting that you lot react so defensively. IT seems to me that the truth is obfuscated by you. This wouldnt unsetttle me if IT wouldnt involve your creations.

I see many reasons why one would stage such an attack. One could be the necessity of a cassus belli to kill a god."

"Please dont feel offended,  i just feel we NEED that investigation to feel Safe again. "

"A cassus belli to kill itself? My curiousity is piqued once more; why would a god need to stage an attack on their own assets to justify killing themselves? You seem to think that Mischief was the instigator, while another god was mentioned to have also been involved. Why focus on a single party? It seems you are biased in some manner either against Mischief as the guilty party or toward The EveryMind as the innocent. Which is it?

Also, in what way am I obfuscating the truth? I have done nothing to stop you investigating. As I said, I have no interest in the issue of burning print houses, only pondering why you want to be so involved in something that has nothing to do with you. A cynic might conclude you are the one trying to obfuscate the truth by being involved in its investigation. Who would suspect the detective, after all?

Anyway, I don't think Munroe's death had much to do with the print houses. Mischief wasn't exactly out for blood as they did offer to not kill Munroe should two other deities, barely a tenth of our number, voice dissent. Munroe died because few could bear his presence, evidenced by the number of gods that invested Essence into harming him outwith Mischief's efforts. Any investigation you make won't change that."

"You seem more interested in throwing around accusations than investigating with impartiality, Zurion. What makes you think Mischief has something to hide? They were investigating a fire at one of their print houses. As you seem to suspect they are the cause of the conflagration, perhaps you'd like to tell us what motive Mischief has for doing something that would likely impede their influence?

While you're at it, you could also inform us why you want to be so involved in investigating something that, as far as I can tell, none of your creations were involved with."

At the DMV getting a vehicle registration renewed. A bunch more tellers just came out. One of them mentioned they got only half-staff during lunch break.

Wtf they actually get a lunch break!? And they can walk away even with customers waiting!
Working for the government rocks apparently.
Customer is not royalty at the DMV.  Whatever gave you the idea?  >.>
Apparently people working in the private sector are treated like poop in 'murrica.

It does not bode well for when I need to get a job. Oh joy.

[Axt, God of Enchanted Weapons]

"You are very quick to assume the results of the investigation have not been tampered with in some manner. Perhaps you could tell us why Mischief was publicly investigating the arson if they were the one that burned the print houses down? If that were the case, one might expect the results to be very different..."
"Just, when you all find the culprit. Don't gang up in a mob. Keep it honorable."
"I have minimal interest in this, to be quite honest. I am mostly intrigued by Zurion going out of their way to hold a certain position, especially when that position is not the only position that exists, and is an unlikely position to exist in the first place."

[Axt, God of Enchanted Weapons]

Propose: Axe Dungeon 1: Dungeons have the base cost of 0.25 Essence. And will use traits to augment their effect.

Propose: Axe Dungeon 2: It costs 25% of the invested Essence for a god to access the dungeon. Items in the dungeon counts as invested essence, so if there's God A's artifact which cost 3 Essence in a 12 Essence dungeon, the god can access the dungeon. Creatures count as Essence in this regard, and it only counts the added value of all the items belonging to a god. This will also allow up to 4 gods to participate in the creation, as investment in the dungeon counts as items in this regard as well.

Propose: Axe Dungeon 3: Idols of Power, enchanted by the gods, let the wielder call upon a limited amount of power from the god. The more powerful the item, and the more skilled the wielder, the more power can be drawn. But god can freely deny them power, so it cannot be used without the god's permission.

Propose: Axe Dungeon 4: Gods cannot remove their items from a dungeon, or any others' items, only mortals can take items out of a dungeon.

Support

Propose: Axe Dungeon 5: A dungeon will solidify with age, making them harder to alter. After 10 Ticks, it's almost impossible to alter their environment (only small patches of new environment), and you're better off just making a new dungeon connected to it (like giant cracks in the floor, leading to a magma dungeon).

"Aha I figured it would be Mischief himself who did the burnings... Thinking you accused poor Munroe which got him killed..."
Send the following headlines to the newspapers: "God of Journalism suspected to Burn down Printing Houses"

"Maybe if it is true, we should hang him and burn him upside down? Would you like that Mischief? I mean you can't honestly mess with freedom of speech so much, I mean we other gods followed your plan to let the paperboys work, but you couldn't go through with it and had to burn them down. Probably because you wanted to gain power too, afterall you could attack a god who was against freedom of speech... Show yourself Mischief, and explain your action to all of us!"

EDit: "Axe I do not understand your second proposal. If you care to explain your proposals in different words I will support them, as they seem interesting enough to me!"
Also create big and small turtles of various sizes surrounding any turtlekind land for 2 Essence, so the shellcarvers can practice all they want...

"You are very quick to assume the results of the investigation have not been tampered with in some manner.

If that were the case, one might expect the results to be very different..."

A former boss of mine once got a ghost chilli chocolate bar as a gift, and decided to pass it round the employees one evening. It was most unpleasant serving people in the shop that night.

Then we went out to a bar after work, with colleagues from another store. One of them was quite happy to eat the remainder of it like a regular chocolate bar, the mad bastard.
