[OOC Thread] The Lesser of Two Heresies.
Sylith:
Yeah, but you have an idea and you are the ones writing, not your characters, so what's the problem? It's not like you can hear capital letters in names. It's just about the narration's integrity, without it reading is uncomfortable.
Silhar:
Hey guys, is anybody into this webcomic by chance?
LuckyDee:
Hmmm, looks like a cross between Dork Tower and Cyanide&Happiness, hadn't seen it before. I'll check it out. Meanwhile:

since the way I understand it, Clem is telling me that although I'm just another mutant in a village of mutants, it's actually going to be because of me if and when the Redemption/Inquisition/other pious morons come rushing in... Can you either explain this one or put it in other words?
Silhar:
What he meant was that if Redemptionists kick in, everybody gets shot and you wouldn't be an exception.

Maybe I'm just overthinking this...
