Bonus, just looking through the translations since I can. Well this makes a lot more sense now doesn’t it?
OotS 37 End
GOD that was a RIDE!!!
Nale almost getting caught by Belkar. Going on that date with Haley. Almost murdering her for Elan to crash in like a fucking hero!
PIRATES! ELAN IS A PIRATE! I have never been so happy in my life, because that is perfect for a bard like him. Playing music and telling stories of his roguish adventures. And learning how to quip and one-liners against enemies? Classic.
And he was Fucking Winning before Nale tried to use Haley as a distraction. God that was so hurtful to read. But the curse is now lifted! She is now able to speak and tell Elan that she loves him. Because the thought of him leaving was the worst thing in the world for her.
Damn…I guess I was right from before. Nale really was the reason that Haley got her voice back.
This is just a good fucking arc and Elan is so fucking pure and cool and I 100% approve.
Now we just have to deal with Xykon when that asshole comes by.
Name Theory #LOVE : When they first meet up an evil wizard turned them into talking stickers, which reversed when they defeated the wizard. Elan suggested “Order of the Stickers” but everyone voted against it. So Order of the Stick it is.
FUCK YEAH THE TRUTH IS OUT!
The thought of Elan leaving her again (just like everyone else) was so distraughtful that she finally wanted to tell the truth! To tell Elan exactly how she feels to make sure he stays!
And it was so powerful that it completely nullified the suggestion that Nale had on Elan.
LOVE CONQUERS ALL!!!
And Haley is now being attacked on two sides. Man, this actually hurts more for her than Elan, and it still fucking hurts.
SELF-LOATHING NOT NOW! WE ALL HAVE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT!
Oh God, this is about as much torment for Haley as it is for Elan. She is trying to defend herself but can’t tell it correctly!
In all hope….I hope Elan still goes through with fighting Nale. Because no matter what he still trusts Haley.
best lies are the ones coated in truth.
Wow Nale just….just wow. Not the deception I thought you were going for….and one that I highly doubt would work.
That you can heal Haley’s speaking? While you try to bluff your way through that one, can we just take a moment to appreciate this moment of good guy fighting bad guy? Like, this was SOOOOO well done.
If Haley wasn’t swooning before, she is definitely going to now.
Nale taking words literally and understanding of Haley’s plight will do nothing from saving himself from sweet sweet Karma.
Ah yes, the power of quips and wordplay once again prevails.
Neal knows how to play the room. He is evil for a reason after all.
Have to be a diva to the end you know.
They don’t unravel. They disintegrate.
GO MY PIRATE! GO AND KICK YOUR LIMEY BROTHER’S ASS!
The best advice for this situation really.
Eh, give him a break. He’s only at first level. He’ll get the hang of adventurer lines sooner or later.
He knows his tropes. How else did you expect him to live for so long?
YES ELAN! THE POWER OF LOVE, ADVENTURE, AND GOOD PLOT STRUCTURE COMPELS YOU!
