: "I suppose you're right about that. My understanding is that twenty percent of archaeology is digging, and eighty percent is researching where to dig. Not dueling with undead pirates or dropping meteors on things."

: "Even so, I wish you wouldn't be so...blasé about getting hurt. Healing magic can't fix everything, and if something were to happen..."

Amberly did a double-take at Fer's appearance.

: "Gods, Fer, are you alright? You look like you've had a rough time."

K-17, zap Wraith A back to its watery grave.

Either that or there's a nuclear waste dump under your lawn and the clover is mutating.

Been a while, but worth the wait (for some of us).

That, and frankly I don't know where the hell my family would even go. As far as I can tell (admittedly without the benefits of genetic testing) we're mutts of mixed European descent with a few other ethnicities mixed in for flavor. We don't have any strong cultural ties, no known relatives in other countries except for a cousin who recently moved to Japan with her husband (active military). What other country would take us?

For my family, it's less "America: Love It or Leave It" and more "America, Love It or Not". We're stuck here for the foreseeable future, so we might as well try to make things better.

I haven't been keeping up with the news. What's this about a new plague? We can't even get rid of the first one.

Amberly, who wasn't having quite so easy a time with things, didn't respond. Instead she struggled to raise her spellbook past the bola wrapped around her.

Apply Sacred Fire to Ghost Archer C.

The autopilot does exactly three things:

Line you up with your destination.
Accelerate towards destination.
Begin decelerating about halfway to destination (as of the time autopilot was engaged).

Anything like "active collision avoidance" or "warn pilot that something is in the way" is a luxury that Outer Wilds Ventures cannot afford (also Slate would think it too boring).

Hip hip, huzzah!

Magicmaker was a fairly good attempt at freeform magic crafting. You get loads of components that interact in various ways so you can create laser beams that bounce off walls and poison struck enemies, or whatever.

That said there were only so many components and they usually just combined their individual effects rather than creating entirely new effects, so perhaps it's not what you're looking for. It's something, anyway.

If Russia used nukes every time someone said they'd use nukes during this conflict, Asia would be a radioactive crater by now. People are a little too quick to drop the n word I think.

Cheers, thanks for the link brewer bob.

martinuzz, I tried yours but the Times doesn't want me reading without signing up, sorry.

Do you have a link to this story? I searched the Guardian's website and I'm not seeing anything more recent than March.
