    Noticed: The bandages on Xan’s left hand, the reference to Destiny implying that he’s played it, the McDouga(?) logo mirrored does not say McDonald’s.

    Wonder what raid boss Xan’s up against…

      Presumably McDougal’s.

        It’s right across the street from Winnie’s, next to Burger Tyrant, and behind Jake ‘n the Boxer.

        As a European, that’s literally the only time I ever heard of this.

    I get it that he’s quoting that Commonwealth English spelling “behaviour,” but since he’s speaking, does that imply he’s pronouncing it as it looks- that last syllable rhyming with “hour” or “velour” (rather than “yurr”)?

      Behavior ISN’T pronounced the same as velour? I’ve been doing one of them wrong.

        Yeah, that’s confusing me, too. They both end in the same sound.

          “Velour” ends in “oor,” like “manure.”

      “Behaviour” is pronounced as ending in “-yurr” regardless of spelling.

      “Hey, JJ. Eddie here. I got two people looking all CIA-like, with hats an’ coats an’ shades worn indoors. You were looking for a tall big nosed broad and a short little geek, right? Oh – WAIT. These 2 are sitting at separate tables, so I guess they aren’t together. Never mind.”

        A suicide bomber and an Interpol fugitive walk into a bar McDonald’s…

    His hand is in surprisingly good shape considering it was impaled by a combat knife.

    Meanwhile… back in Sepia World! Going to be “cloak and dagger” for these jokers for a while.

      Though it doesn’t seem they haven’t grasped the principle of remaining low key. Because nothing spells “subtle” like two strangers wearing shades, trench coats, and taking pains not to be seen together.

    But that’s why you roll Wood Elf.

    Given the option, I always roll human. At least on my main. I *might* roll up a non-human for alts if there is a significant mechanical benefit to an other race for the class that the alt will be, but even then it’s not particularly likely. :/

    Hello Xan, good to see you’re all right! Thank you for answering my question. With the Savage R/aces, it’s also true that members of different species have different skillsets. Only Avians are able to fly, for example. I can understand how players might want to explore the advantages of every species.

    Unless he took some time to get it cared for properly at a hospital he might not be such a good typist in the years to come. I hear those voice recognition softwares are getting pretty good?
