WHY YES YES IT IS LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT INSTEAD WHO'S YOUR FAVORITE I LIKE MAKOTO AND REI

Bishies are passé. The real fashionable thing is having a crush on a grandmother who is secretly an oni.

I keep trying to ask my friends if this show actually has a plot or it's just a vehicle to stare at half-naked bishie boys and they basically stammer, "Uh, well, you see...there's SWIMMING...and...they have to fix a pool?

...

Did I mention swimming?"

So now, Davin, I pose this question to you. :v:

Which one is the one who tries to swim in any pool of water greater than ankle deep? I like that one.

E: And the answer to that is "do any of those shows about this exact thing except they're cute girls in a club instead of cute boys have a plot?"

You ever see a sports anime where someone in the group of friends joins the bigshot rival team, and the rest of the friends make their own team to win the big tournament and win their friend back? It's kinda like that.

Okay. That's fair.

Also I'm totally okay with it being a vehicle for staring at half-naked bishie boys! If I end up watching it, that will probably be why, cause I couldn't care less about any sports. :v:

Alright, so history lesson: The chat thread was nominally set up for two reasons: As a place for derails to go (especially grognards.txt derails) and because TG has a lot of separate groups (D&D, wargamers, mafia, poker etc.) and it gave them all a place to hang out and chat to each other.

These days though I feel like the chat thread is mostly a place for shitposters and a goony TTRPG clique to post at each other. So, let's try an experiment!

No more chat thread.

Ogion went on a halfmile or so, and said at last, 'To hear, one must be silent'.
So I have an encounter for my fantasy game that I want to run, where a famous researcher bard is trying to reconstruct the true happenings of an ancient battle/siege. He has commissioned a powerful spell that will allow him to look through a specially prepared lens and see what the things/places on the other side looked like in the distant past. I wanted to set this up as a fun investigative scene and use props for it but I don't quite know if what I want exists.

I was thinking that I could draw or print something up on a big sheet of paper with some kind of ink or preparation that makes it invisible to the naked eye, and then create some kind of like round "lens" that has a type of filter of some kind that reveals the hidden ink/drawing when it's placed over top of it/looked through.

Kind of complicated for an encounter but I thought it could be neat if I could figure out how to do it. Does anyone have any ideas? I considered that whole lemon juice/invisible ink stuff but it doesnt work with a filter. I tried searching around and found a few things (some "cheat a poker!" stuff on ebay) but it didn't seem like it was real. I'd be fine with it being monochromatic since in my head that's how it feels like it would have to work. Anyone have any experience with stuff like this, or any ideas? I could easily have overlooked a more elegant/simpler solution.

Maybe you could work something out with a blacklight? Light you attach a blacklight flashlight to a box, and they have to look through that box to see what you wrote with a UV marking pen or something.

That's a good point, I could probably build a kind of box with a blacklight. I think that's probably the right avenue to go down for this, then, since I don't want any sort of heat activation or anything like that. I really want it to feel like a magic lens is being used to see. Thanks for the suggestion!
