@Superta2

What makes you so super, and have you read the works of Nietzsche?  

No, no, it's short for Supertan.  They are a bronzed diety.

  It sounds as if he is objectifying brown people to fulfill his fetishes.  

A snake's tongue is quite flexible after all, though it takes an awful lot of pressure to press on each key. Flexible, but flimsy. And no, I wouldn't hold a hoe against you - if you can catch my side-winding ass, that is.

But wouldn't having a sssuper sssneaky sssnek as a backyard pet much more fun?

Thanks for the welcome! I'm psyched to have found another interactive fiction/writing forum. Admittedly, I only heard about the existence of this site via CoG recently, but I'm surprised I haven't came across this place before - I've been searching for IF on and off for years, so this is pretty sweet. I've been a reader/player of IF, but I'm interested in expanding that into writing my own in time. 

Thanks again, and perhaps maybe try not to lop my head off?

Not since you went on a rampage and butchered Steve just for fun. What happened to him anyway?

Thank you! 

However, I shan't apologize for making dear mizal cry - they are happy tears, after all ... even if I am a tad bit surprised that forming proper sentences is, apparently, rare on a reading/writing forum LOL

Funnily enough, I come from a post-by-post RP background [the likes of Proboards, Invisionfree, and Jcink ... in order of most-ancient to least-ancient] and while I never dared dipped a toe into the world that is Warrior Cats [or any other type of anthropomorphic mess], I've seen those sites around so I can empathize with the struggle. That, and bad writers/poor character developers/logic-means-fuck-all-in-storyteling types in general, regardless of the site's fandom or setting.

Pardon, I'm getting bad RP flashbacks. I digress - for now, as I'm sure I'll find some way to insert my shit RP experiences into some unwitting person's thread.

My snake av was a quick lazy choice via Google images :( I wanted my usual silly snake emjoi Android style but alas, I was too lazy to downsize the file to make it fit. Perhaps I'll invoke the Red Viper for its next iteration. 

Haha it's a play on big bad wolf as Lycan means werewolf. I'll just leave it to your imagination as to why I got called one though.

Well at least they'll have fun with it.

No problem, thanks for the welcome. I plan to be pretty active on here. I love writing stories and this site seemed pretty good for what I want to do.

Could you, perhaps, not?

I did not start this.  I merely finished it.

That's fair

I'm calling HR. 

@Falon21

Do you have a wolf-hawk hybrid fursona?

A recording of you saying my username ten times fast.

@ZeoNyph

Who are they, and why do they call you ZeoNyph at night?  Is that your stripper name?  If so, where can we see you perform?  

I don't think there would be anyone like me(which is why a name like ZeoNyph was used because nobody in their right minds would choose that), and I'll perform a little ritual on your dead corpse if you want.

So you are they then.  Fascinating.  Have you sought professional treatment yet?  

I suppose you could, but I don't know if my father would be pleased with that.  

No, and I don't intend to.

Also, why would your father be pleased (or not) with me seeking professional treatment? 

I think he would be apathetic to that.  

I meant more your performing of your ritual on my corpse.  Most unwholesome.  

Well then, I hope you last long enough to see the look on your father's face when I perform the ritual...

Me too, because I doubt you will.  

We'll see 'bout that.

Perhaps.  Perhaps not.  It all depends if you even manage to reach that point in a state of sapience.  

Which reminds me, have you read Necromancer yet?

No, but I've read Eternal, Ground Zero, and Innkeeper.

Those are all excellent stories.  Ground Zero is the story that made me love this site.  Did you read all the paths of each?  

I recommend reading Necromancer very highly.  It is one of my favorites.  

Took me a while to get the 4 epilogues in Ground Zero.

I managed to get most of the endings in Eternal, the first being Eternal Paragon.

As for Innkeeper, I don't remember whether I read through all the paths or not...

I'll give Necromancer a try.

It's pretty easy to read everything as long as you make use of the back button.  It can definitely be time-consuming though.  XD

Eternal Paragon is the happy ending with Ulivik or whatever his name is, right?  If so, that is one of my favorites.  

Good.  It's amazing.  

You're thinking of Eternal Bane.

Eternal Paragon is when you managed to create a race of Eternal Ubermensch by eliminating the sterility problem allowing them to breed naturally.

Oh, that's right.  Bane of Rask and all.  Thank you.  

This is what happens when I don't look up words.  

I've gone through the Dark Order path in Necromancer.

You're right, it is amazing!

You reached the epilogue, I assume?  

Yes, that's my favorite of the two main branches, but the other one is good in a different way.  I am happy to hear you liked it.  Which end was your favorite so far?  

Yet to start the other path, so I'll let you know...

I didn't mean necessarily official end; and end game page counts as an end to me, but please do.  

@AndTheyDrownUs

What was it like to be drowned with your brethren?  

Why don't you come and find out?

Why, that's very mind of you to invite me.  

I'll have to decline though, as my phone is not waterproof and cannot leave my person for so long.  

Was it the sirens?

Oh, no my good sir, I'm afraid it was The Kraken. Sirens got half my crew though.

Only half?  That's quite interesting, but I suppose after forty days at sea, some will have moved on from any interest in females.  

Is the Kraken still out there?  I have some research for a possible story. 

The second half all shared my obsession with Jason Momoa so we were safe. 

Probably, though good luck getting close enough to study it; bugger's smart as hell

Why not?

Because you could be more useful as a slave.  

I mean, you're not wrong.

"We all carry these things inside that no one else can see
They hold us down like anchors. They drown us out at sea"

Chelsea Smiles - Bring Me the Horizon.

"Emo poem" is pretty spot on XD

I can write you a new one if you want me to. It'd be pretty awful though

EMOOOOO

You should write a new one.

Lol working on it, very slow going. It will be absolute garbage but at least it'll rhyme

A jewish raccoon? Damn well that isn't something you don't see every often.

I am indeed the realest Shaq. No other Shaq is quite as real as I. Any doubters will be dunked on. 

I can assure you, Mr. Ogre11, that you are 100% correct in this. I am the real Shaq, as my name implies. 

All is forgiven. If there's one thing training in the ancient arts of Shaq Fu have taught me, it's that "forgiveness is the key to selling merchandise" -Shaq Fu Secret Texts (Volume 2, Chapter 17). 

Watch out for his bricks aka free throws. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1pmG-yiqms

How could you say such things about my free throw shooting? It was all part of my master plan to promote my line of Hack-a-Shaq protective body armor. Whether it worked or not is still up for debate. According to the numbers it didn't, but we know numbers always lie. 

Nope. I did when I first used it on another site and it just stuck lol. Thanks for asking though :)

At least you capitalized it.  

Snakes are cold-blooded predators in every sense; strangling their opponents, using poison, and even eating their own kin to survive. They are the silent denizens of a dog eats dog world and the accept it with all the glory a reptile can muster up. Crocs and lizards may attempt to recreate the same foreboding air given by off by a snake but to what length? The serpent family is one of the most feared groups of creatures for a reason; their notoriety leaves even the most ferocious beasts just anxious to get away from their line of sight(my mother for example). I dearly wish to be like these elegant but deadly creatures so I have taken it upon myself to learn their way of life. To slither one must twist, coil and oscillate towards their goals whether it may be seen as callous or conniving. Everybody has a title to call themselves and while I may not be the Lord of Snakes(one day) I sure am the Lord of Slithering.

So you're a scalie. 

Alright.  You do you, man.  

...I think I need to explain myself there in a bit more detail, I respect the way they have to survive and wish to imitate their stance on achieving objectives in life. I don't want to be like them in the physical sense(I enjoy having limbs) and while they are alluring critters they can't compare to good old human anatomy(36-24-36). 

But if I could smash a dragon I would[Game of Thrones style].

Yep.  This one's a scalie. 

@BradinDvorak I found you a friend.  

A challenger arrives to take Steve's place

Thank you, I'm working on some stories at the moment, but I'm a very slow writer. I hope that when I (eventually) post them, they're badass enough to meet your expectations. 

Sounds like a bad comic book villain.

@TwilightWoven Are you actually woven from the fabric of twilight or is that just a misconception?

@Mayana hello are you new?  Would you like to join the discord, great place for conversing and getting to know the CYS community.

Poor, poor child. 
I would very much recommend stories like Love SICK, Eternal, Necromancer, Silver Horn Silver Hooves, Inseparable (a heart warming story about the power of friendship no matter what happens).  

oh no its definitely....."friendship"

Certainly not the warmest of friendships either, as one of them can be rather cold and a bit rigid in their personality at times.

@chroniclegrump

Regale me with the chronicles of how you became a grump, assuming that is where your name came from.  

Ah, it's an old username - it came from my relative's mumblings of how I was such a critic when it came to movies, TV shows, books, etc. and so I figured I'd mix one of my favorite movies at the time (Chronicle, 2012) with my being a grump. Not exactly a thrilling tale, but an honest origin story.

Sometimes media is meant to be consumed without thought, like EVERY Adam Sandler movie.

It was more that I thought it sounded whimsical than my lauding my tendency to be overly-critical in any fashion xD Nonetheless, I appreciate the approval! Also....Jack and Jill...*shudders*

yeah... the thought of adam sandler dressed in drag doesnt nessesarily brighten my day...

@cricket where does yours come from? (do you just like crickets?)

Oh no, no. You've got it all wrong. She's an actual slithering vermin of disgust who has tainted the fair name of all crickets globally! You know. many years ago she was once human, but then decided to take part in a polymorphism experiment of a mad scientist! Since she became a cricket, she has done nothing but besmirch their name; which is why she was outcasted from her tribe of crickets and now she lurks this site, because she has nothing better to do.

Giving away my secrets to the noobs, eh, Shouja?

You know what we do to rats around here?

Burn them in the eternal fire of endmaster's wrath? 

or...or feed them to the crickets?! 

No...I don't wanna be food for those disgusting, fake imitations of butterflies!!!  

I don't eat faggots.  That's GAY.  

release them a safe distance from your home?

A few years ago, probably just before I found this site for the first time, I was making a LINE ID, and I wanted something gender neutral.  I used to name myself things like Lady'x' or after famous generals or something, but this time I wanted something I would use the same username for other things with.  I thought "I like crickets.  Crickets are cool.  I'm cool.  I shall be The Cricket Master."

Then when I made an account either here or Discord (whichever came first) I became simply Cricket.  

Interesting story with yours.  Thank you for sharing.  :)

I never shared my story...

I think she's referring to my post.

Oh, I see that now.  You should get a profile picture so I know you are not the same as all the other noobs without one.  

i see furry pfp here i come >:)

I like the self-awareness.  It looks good on you.  

Thank you! *bows*

I should probably tell the story behind my name though, huh?

If you know what's good for you

back in good old middle school (when i was still a guy)me and my ex best friend were making superhero characters, and I came up with Myrra. Myrra then became a dungeons and dragons character (tabaxi ranger/rogue). Myrra soon got promoted to my fursona (not my pfp) and now real life nickname. (my real name is Clara.)

"Ex-best friend"

Ah, the difficulties of those who talk to people IRL.  

Interesting.  

Thank you for sharing your first name, by the way.  I'll add that to your file.  

I had an ex girlfriend who was exclusively ldr

I'm not looking for a girlfriend right now.  Sorry.  

No Im just saying I spend most of my time online, but school y'know

Me too. 

Still not interested though.  Sorry.  

stop implying shit

I find you oddly amusing for some reason and wish to add you to my CYSfiction story.  Remind me you exist eight months to one year from now, Myrra Myrra on the wall.

is CYSfiction a thing???

Oh yes.  Check out the Creative Corner for all sorts of wonders, site history, and in-jokes.  

sounds like smut but ok

You have a dirty and perverse mind.  

Read the rules.  NO PORN ALLOWED.  

I never said it was just sounds like CYSfiction would have lemons

We aren't degenera--Sorry.  Couldn't type that with a straight face.  

I foresee your time here being very short.

And you were just starting to like her too.  

Mizal could've had someone to discuss yiffsonas with or...something.  Whatever furries do when they aren't wearing fur suits at public events and purring at children whose parents don't know any better.  

Don't think Mizal is that into the furry stuff.  Its still a blurry thing really.

Anyways, we all know Mizal is way cooler than your average Furyite in any case.  

Mizal is probably way cooler than me

She is a little cool sometimes, yes.  Certainly fearsome.  Don't listen when Mayana says she's the nice mod.  

Furry by proxy

explain "by proxy" (context not definition)

AFAIK, liking or associating with things that happen to be—but not because they are—considered "furry." Though someone correct me if I'm wrong.

fair enough. im just a degenerate

i was just joking jeez... I poke fun at any fanfic my friends write/read calling it lemons and whatever

i dont want to be banned :(

You should have tagged EndMaster.  Then this whole mess could have been avoided, but no~

If you ever say that to me ever again I swear to god I will pass away

Shall we test that?  

You should tag EndMaster three times.  He is really cool, and I am sure you would like to meet him.

Don’t tag EndMaster. That will -without a doubt- get you banned.

so Ive been told...

I’ve been looking through forums recently. Mayana and Cricket like to trick people into tagging, subsequently getting them banned. They may be super convincing, but don’t trust it. Tagging EndMaster is always a trap.

You'll shut your trap if you know whats good for you...

Yes I will. Bye now

I like how we're just in constant danger of being banned now xD

Once you have made your presence known, you have set your path towards either glory or destruction.  Time will tell which it is, but one thing is certain.  You cannot choose to not be on a path.  

I feel like I’ve managed to stay neutral by talking like less than once a month in discord as well as making questionable comments every once in a while. Ok, I guess I am much better than everyone else who has joined after me, but then again there hasn’t been much competition.

You're my favorite autistic child, but, no, you are not neutral.  

Neutrality is an illusion.   Every thing you do affects you.   

What path do you think you are on? I’m guessing glory?

I would certainly hope so.  I doubt I am going towards destruction, but time will tell.

What types of decisions would lead a user towards destruction (I’m trying to avoid it).

• Being a retard,
• tagging EndMaster 3 times,
• writing shitty stories,
• shitposting,
• not doing what the admins tell you to,
• writing about Warrior Cats or porn,
• writing a story that has incorrect information about bees, as well as bee on woman rape,
• being Kiel,
• being a retard.

Got it. Thanks for the help. :)

Add being a faggot to the list too.  It falls under retard in some ways, but there are differences.

Sorry if this sounds like a stupid request, but define “faggot” in this context.

Whiny bitch, more or less

Ok. I’ll avoid being a whiny bitch.

Cricket, I feel like you switched the signs on the ‘glory’ and ‘destruction’ doors at the entrance to CYS and that’s why there’s so many noobs tagging EndMaster.

*hides hammer*

Why, I'd never!  How could you make such base statements about my character, Autistic?  You make it sound as if I try to weed out the inferior and mentally deficient like some...some...some NAZI!

:O

This...this is treason, treason against the kingdom of CYStia itself! Nobody except for the supreme rulers are authorised to change the infrastructure! You deserve death! Now...where did I keep my bottle of insecticide?

Jokes on you.  I used it all to eliminate my competition.  Now I am the most powerful cricket on the face of the earth.  

@StoryPerson Do you like to read or write stories, or do you like stories for a different reason? Do you Identify as genderless?

who's storyperson?

http://chooseyourstory.com/Member/?Username=Storyperson

@rebelfe4r are you really a rebel? If so, which part of Syria are you from?

@TheBaron

What are you the baron of, and how long have you had the idea for the storygame you are writing?

That's easy, the esteemed barony of Neualtenoberniederburg. Unfortunately the jacobin and anti-monarchist world order has not deemed it esteemed enough to include on their maps.

Regarding my storygame, I came up with the idea a few days ago after originally planning on doing a fantasy one. I have an interest in the Thirty Years War and unfortunately most people don't know much about it, so I thought I'd do something more unique.

That is an injustice, but your rule comes from above rather than mortal judgments. 

It is a cool subject.  The Thiirty Year's War was something I thought was really interesting but never got around to studying in depth.  You include the part where the Bohunks throw each other out of windows, right?  

Unfortunately the story takes place about ten years after the defenestration of Prague, so no. But I'm planning on including a codex explaining the background of the Thirty Years War, and it is certainly an important event.

lol I hope its titled "The Ten Years After the Thirty Years War"

I see.  That's too bad, but maybe you will be able to do it justice in the background anyway.  

Um...thanks? I guess?

So...my advice to other 12 years is...don't be stupid. Lurk for a while, and learn the rules.

And wow. I just got tagged. 

I think my story is going pretty well...

Finding the motivation to work on it is the hardest part.

Oh...uh, maybe something less major.

I've told people to DEMAND that I work on my story, and Cricket did, so that helped.

@Benajah765 You'll be certainly someone I'll be interested to watch. Like the others said you don't see people like you that often, very aware for your age. Stay like that and you'll survive.

Okay, thanks. Just don't be a stalker.

How assumative of you to say that of me. But don't worry, you certainly aren't the first victi...individual to say that :p

...That's nice.

Yes,yes it is. 

Oh no, I think the boy might've gone to avoid any nightmares caused by the words I said :p

Or maybe he's busy. Or maybe he just doesn't want to talk to you.

Yeah, the latter is most likely it. Having a tendency to creep or to softly say 'intimidate' people effectively has been with me in both social and real life.

I AM AT SCHOOL.

I'm in choir right now, and we're on our computers.

Yes. I sing.

I fail to imagine the probability of singing in a choir and being on the computer at the same time :p

We're just looking online for our next concert songs, we're not really singing right now.

In reality, the class is dicking around online and the teacher doesn't feel like teaching. Sounds like a typical Monday.

Why would anyone do that?  I thought the point of a class was to give you a period of time in which there was nothing to do but be on the Internet.

Wow. Someone actually called me Ben. I like that.

@The_Broken_God

Why are you broken? Did someone hit you too hard? Or is it because no one believes in you anymore?

I honestly don’t know. I woke up in this world, not really sure what happened. I get random flashes of memory, flashbacks leading into a past I know nothing about, yet seems strangely familiar. I am the Broken God, because I often see myself in my flashbacks as all-powerful, and all-knowing. The only problem is, I was trapped here, with no recollection of my past except for the flashbacks mentioned before. 

Ha ha, just kidding, I chose this username because it seems cool. 

It’s from the SCP wiki

How did you know?

I read about it one time and remembered when I saw your name. 

@TurnipBandit do you steal turnips? Or raid the Turnip Kingdom of Turnimia? Or do you just really crave turnips? 

I was but a lowly turnip serf living under the tyrannical rule of the Beetsheviks. Fed up with the injustices brought upon the turnip people of my homeland, I escaped our meager farm and began to attack Beetshevik convoys wherever I found them, returning stolen goods to the people. The authorities began hunting for me, calling me a turnip bandit. It is a title said in whispered voices by my enemies, and with reverent praise by my supporters. Holy Farmer willing, the Beetsheviks will be driven out of our lands and peace will return to the land. But until then I continue on. For with the Holy Farmers support we will be victorious and be one step closer to the embrace of the One Who Tills.

Nah, I just came up with that story on the spot. To be honest its a much more mundane story than that. I was waiting for a train and an old woman dropped her bag of vegetables. When I went to help her pick them up she started screaming "Turnip bandit" over and over and my squad mates (and little sister) never let me live it down. I figured it was as good a username as any.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'll be sure to just stick with the real story next time. The other story was just a poor attempt at being clever while walking home from work. I really have to stop trying to be clever.
