Re: 2018/05/02 - Showing Res Ponsibility
That's a good personal way to have used the power you were having, Res. Don't blame him, Grape, he has a point. And then, don't you want to read a new great Pridelands story? Oh! You called for it, Grape! It's a shame your head was turned on the other side. That's weird, anyway, it should be caused by some temple power residue left on him... So, Res is getting to come back home, but I'm wondering, where's his luggage visible here?

It really takes away all the author's credit when their work of "fiction" is actually real, doesn't it?Argent wrote:The game is over so weird time junk is allowed, so he could have got the book from the future where he'd already written it, or from an alternate universe version of himself, or even from a universe where Pridelands is real.

The Prince Who Was A Thousand is in an unique position. He is a teleportationist, among other things, and this is even rarer than a master of temporal fugue. In fact, he is the only one of his kind. He can transport himself, in no time at all, to any place that he can visualize.
And he has a very vivid imagination. Granting that any place you can think of exists somewhere in infinity, if the Prince can think of it too, he is able to visit it. Now, a few theorists claim that the Prince’s visualizing a place and willing himself into it is actually an act of creation. No one knew about the place before, and if the Prince can find it, then perhaps what he really did was make it happen. However-positing infinity, the rest is easy. -- Creatures of Light and Darkness, Roger Zelazny.

If Res wrote it in the future and brought it to the present, he's still the author.... Ow, my head...

And now we are going to have a long multi-page discussion over whether Res created Pridelands, or if the image of Pridelands flew into his head from an alternate un-
No, better get back to the comic.

Unless this "vacation" has given him the confidence to come out as the true author. However, that would be a bit complicated with the first six Pridelands books already published in his mom's name.

As a writer I would probably trade my soul to be able to use infinite cosmic power to give me ideas and help me write.

I think it would have been funnier if when he sneezed, he went into Mega Mana Were-Tiger Mode instead of just Were-Tiger.

Which, when you think of it, is a good argument for Keene's quest for equality.

Once a were-tiger, always a were-tiger.
King looks an awful lot like my own Corgi. That's one reason why he's my favorite, but I also like his attitude.

So does this mean that once Res figures out he still has residual mana in his veins, he'll be able to use it like Bane uses venom to become more swol at will?
