Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

Threadmarks: Chapter 4: Spirits in Yunming Town and a Mission
That night was actually quiet. With how Meihua had been looking at me after the Mahjong game I had half-expected some kind of attempt at sabotage in the middle of the night. An attempt to keep me awake all night, or diuretic in my morning tea, something humiliating like that. Not having to deal...

As to Chi, I'm using internal Chi Manipulation as the reason why even non-benders can do bullshit Wuxia stuff, like how Piandao leaped 6 feet from an ice wave to jump over the wall of Ba Sing Ce, or how folks can take a giant rock to the sternum from an earthbender and...

Threadmarks: Chapter 2: Traveling Through Tian Lung
The trip to Yunming Town was relatively uneventful, which was a rarity in this day and age. With the Fire Nation on the advance, there was usually much more chaos in the countryside as entire villages chose to up stakes to head for one of the more defensible cities. Veritable rivers of refugees...

I hated Full Moon Bay. It was one of those places where the hopeless were sold hope for everything they had, only for that hope to turn out to be little more than a short trip to someplace else that had no use for them, except this time they didn't even have any funds to fall back on. Ever since...
