We probably don't need to bother with Haley's, it's pretty obvious what that would include - lots and lots of treasure, plus Elan and maybe a slightly saner version of her dad.ThroughTheWell wrote:I'd say this one was more Elan's dream, and the earlier one more Roy's dream. If that continues I'd like to see Belkar's dream.

Re: Order of the Stick
While I was originally going with one illusion per Stickie, I am now leaning toward each contributing to a shared illusion. That bit with the kids seems all Roy to me. I am still curious about Belkar too. I suppose in a shared illusion they could all accept Belkar dying that way, including him, so the question is what is he experiencing right now. It might be just nothing, and when they snap out of it he doesn't remember anything past getting killed. Or maybe experiencing nothing in the illusion he just stops breathing and dies in real life.

New OOTS up. 2 pager. And Elan... he's useful.
I kind of like some of the wedding vow jokes, which unfortunately is overshadowed by Plot.

Re: Order of the Stick
I find it really funny that in everyone's "happy ending" Belkar is dead.
Though honestly, there wouldn't really be any other way to reconcile his surviving with a happy ending, unless he had a complete change of character. And for some reason, I think that would have tipped everyone off to this being an illusion.

That was awesome. It was nice to get back to comedy after the recent pages.

Re: Order of the Stick
A man who likes cats can't be all bad. I kind of think Belkar could have turned out different. I also kind of hope for a CN afterlife for him.

Re: Order of the Stick
Strange question, but is anyone else having trouble accessing http://www.giantitp.com/ currently?
I know they've been having issues lately (because some people have no lives...), but all the "is it up" sites say that it is, in fact, up and just not working for me.
EDIT: NM. Now working. *pokes site* Oddness.

Re: Order of the Stick
Belkar would need a Restoration spell to fix his drained Constitution.
