  1. On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    Not sure if this would really work outside of a gag omake, but imagine what would happen if there was a novelty hypnotist performance in the area, and Shirogane's comrades convince her to give it a shot to put her mindset in a drive to win. Only it works a bit too well, and they see just how...
  2. On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    That's what I mean. Shiro has the body of an Umamusume, and that includes the instinctual urge to run. But unlike other Umas, Tanya doesn't have a horse's soul to go with the body, so even if she enjoys running, she doesn't have a particular interest in racing, beyond its raw utility. That...
  3. On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    The tricky thing is that I get the feeling that Shirogane already anticipates this happening, and her solution is less of proving herself as a racer and more of having set up back-up plans for herself. She'll put in effort, of course, as she's dutiful and she doesn't quit and she wants to make...
  4. On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    Beyond Shirogane's lack of a strong drive/dream to race, I think there's something even bigger holding her back, something unthinkable for an uma: Tanya cannot see racing as something precious, something that truly matters. Think back to Chapter 5, and how Shiro's reaction to Steady Distance's...
  5. On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    So I'm wondering, what do we think is Shirogane's long-term game plan? Because she still thinks that her skills at a racer are just average overall. So I think she believes that her skill is enough to get her into Tracen thanks for her trainer, but not enough for her to last in the long-run. So...
  6. On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    What sorts of things do they teach for supporting runners? I'm wondering if Shirogane might try to use some of the skills for other purposes. Is it possible to take some classes at other schools? I did that sort of thing for a math class in college one summer, so Shirogane could maybe seize on...
  7. On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

    So I'm wondering, are schools like Tracen solely racing focused, or do they have some other programs that students can theoretically take, too? That is, if they weren't of course more interested in racing. Outside mandatory scholarship classes, most uma probably take electives tailored to...
  8. Silver Swallow has passed away

    He was a good author. I remember especially liking his Fate time travel story with Archer, always hoping that he might come back to it someday. I wish him the best, wherever he has gone beyond this life.
  9. The Once and Future Champion (Baldur's Gate 3/Dragon Age) (Complete)

    I think this may very well be the first [good] BG3 crossover to reach completion and the end of the game. A momentous achievement, for sure.
  10. The Once and Future Champion (Baldur's Gate 3/Dragon Age) (Complete)

    I'm a little worried that Hawke's trick here - that Gortash's betrayal of Karlach counts as failing to remain true in dealings - isn't as certain as they think. First, the "remain true" portion could be interpreted as regarding future actions - so him selling out Karlach in the past wouldn't...

  12. Help - 413 "Request Entity Too Large" Error When Editing Post

    Thanks for explaining. Does that mean the problem might happen for me in the future? What should I do if it happens again?

    Okay, I just tried it now, and it works, thanks! What exactly was the problem, out of curiosity?
  14. Help - 413 "Request Entity Too Large" Error When Editing Post

    I was trying to edit a thread post I made a while back for a waifu catalog build, and I got the following message: 413 Request Entity Too Large nginx/1.14.1 I have been gradually expanding my build over time and adding new things, so I'm wondering if this is because of some sort of size...

    You're welcome. I like reading snippets covering settings I'm interested in, and Final Fantasy X is pretty cool. Add in a fair number of waifus I like, and I found the snippet intriguing. Overall, looks like a pretty good start to the adventure.
