Zatth

I convinced Black Six and ChocolateFrogs to record a video while we were at Scouting 4 Bricks. I had footage. I edited. Now there's Elmo yelling fire, a new BZP t-shirt emblazoned with Black Six's words, and an uncomfortable zoom into a horrifying LEGO walking figure. Please. For your sake, . And certainly don't stay long enough to see the two times Elmo appears.

A copy of BIONICLE: Rahi Beasts. Post over the 60 day limit. (Unfortunately that means I gotta close the topic :/) But! If you want to, you can start up a new topic for the game. A Topic Closed post.

Topic unfortunately revived after the 60 day limit, so, this means closed topic :/ *sings in falsetto to usher in the curtain, slowly descending over the forum posts*

...two, and a... Nah, no worries, it ends here! FIN.

A play in two parts (upon request of the owner): and a one, and a...

To echo Downfall's words, welcome to BZP! Also, I shall wield my mighty Forum Powers *lightning begins crackling* and allow topics revived to be brought down, for new topics to arise! It's like when a Toa gave of themselves to make new Toa... except, not? I dunno, I just summon the lightning.

Ooh, I like that the mystery is bubbling up Gonna write up a few more chapters (I already have #2 and #3 ready) so I can be a bit more caught up, should be putting them up soon!

“Life is not what one lived, but what one remembers in order to tell the tale.” - Gabriel Garcia Marquez They said, tell it to us. It’s only dredges of a tale, clinging bits of a mythical past that dare not wash away. They won’t let it wash away, much as the once Endless Ocean was challenged by rebel islands that sprung up, and survived, against all odds. I think they have a feeling that that’s the only reason why we’re here. By ‘they’ I mean all of those who live in this thriving metropolis, and those who live in all the other great cities. The ones that jut into the sky with Coliseums and Towers of Knowledge as if wanting to reach upwards in order to cut a star from the cloth that is the night sky; the ones that call prototype masks and ritualistic tunics the carpets they walk on; those by the beaches and those under the waters and those clinging above the sky, all of them replicating the different cities of yore, lodged into our genetic memory, but forgotten to all. We thought it was better that way, the six of us. How do you encompass millennia of history? How do you tell those collected chronicles, of heroic Toa and devious Makuta, of deaths of Great Spirits and magical fusions of planets? Names like Kodan, Takua, Hahli, Kopeke, Tarduk… And how do you tell someone descended from a Makuta that they were once the cause of a near-extinction level event? How do you force a now-sentient Rahi to regress into history and into savagery, so much like the Zesk and the Vorox during their own time? We chose, for all of them, to keep away the dangerous and the old, in order to keep this tenuous peace. And now they say, tell it to us. Look at them. Caught unawares by their own youth and inexperience, as thirsty for knowledge as all of us once were, far removed enough that they see but fascination and awe in what we call ‘our history’. But I, I am… so old. The joints in my fingers hurt. Breathing is labored, in that I feel when they slow down because I become afraid that I have forgotten to take a breath. I’m nearing the end, that much is clear. With me, as accorded thousands of years ago, it all must go. But you will appreciate that, in typical me fashion, I have followed this to an extent. It’s equivocation, in that I am not technically going against what we agreed on. The tomes sit behind me. It’s all there, you know? The maps of every major island and of what were once the three planets, with the sites of every village and every battle. The entire travel log of the Robot, with all of its tales of the places we never saw (I suppose the Robot also died, and so those coordinates will remain just that). The parchment written after my investigations into Mata Nui and Voya Nui, the crystals and panels from visiting Metru Nui and the Southernmost Islands. Every weapon that’s saved my life, labeled with the thing that threatened me and that I barely escaped alive. And the Kanohi. They’re all here, almost all of them. It took us, what, seven thousand years to collect the Mask of each major player? Seven thousand years and the death of one of our own… and now I’m dying, and this will be here, but with no one. Ha. It almost feels like a meaningless sacrifice, at the end of it all. Is that what the six of us ended up being? Meaningless? Or sacrifices? They will never know, will they. No, of course not. It’s shocking to me I still find myself rediscovering this. No. No. No, no. No, they don’t get this. Not now, not never. I- no! I said th- Look, I- Y- A Rahi should have eaten you years ago, you know that? Fine. But I will keep the details to a minimum. And, I’ll have me an oath of secrecy! Yes. Yes, alright, I’ll let them in. Let me just get my affairs in order first. Review Topic

Link to the Epic Hey, y'all, back with a something I've been chipping away at! As always, any and all comments and feedback are helpful and welcome

I need to find ways to keep writing daily And hey, at least I'm feeling this one, since it's basically my excuse to go back through everything BIONICLE and refresh my memory. So, without further ado, an Epic! ...thingy, sorts of!

Alright, people! Zatth has no witty retorts so we'll make this short and snappy, upon request of the owner, THE CLOSED IS TOPIC wait dangit can I try it ag- [CLOSED]

Ooh, so many events... (No, seriously, hoping for S4B/NOVA Maker Faire/BF VA)

it me!

In my new Zatth's Emporium: Being for the Sale and Ducat Collection of Generally Re-stocked Goods as Transactionable Items Or ZE:BSDCGRGTI for short.

This thread is closed, a phrase which here means "shuttered off for the rest of time after being revived more than 120 days since the last post". (But feel free to continue the conversation on a new Thread!)

After a brief stint as President (and then two frickin' years of teacher school that are finally coming to a close), I'm finally back home. Hi. I missed y'all.

Closing on request of the owner! *Fallout Vault door shuts for 300 years*

Thanks for the heads up, Laval! So yes, feel free to introduce yourself here; in the meantime, though, *singing voice* CLOSE-ing time

Just like Zatth's return to BZP, so do his Moderator powers return to him! (So... topic revived very much after 120 days, but feel free to continue the discussion as a new Thread!) In the meantime, though, by the powers vested in me by these Forums, I declare this TOPIC CLOSED *dun dun*

Hey all. So, first things first, the bad news: I've known for about a month now and hadn't yet made a Blag post because I didn't want to have to say it, but I won't make it to the Faire of Bricks this year :/ Four months back I agreed to go on an all-expense paid trip to South Korea with the university's Forensics Team to do some lectures and judge an international competition. As luck would have it, I found out three months after the fact that the dates would be exactly the dates of BrickFair VA. It looks like I might be back in the States by post-BrickFair Monday shenanigans, so I might be able to make that if jet lag allows. But yeah. Sorry y'all As much as that trip is fun, honestly nothing can be better than hanging out with awesome humans for a week, geeking out about LEGO and Galidor ('kay, maybe the latter is only a few of us). On the year-long absence from the site: Similar deal as above. Senior year hit me harder than Makuta's sleeping curse on Mata Nui, and from graduation to Senior year with the Forensics team to an... interesting tenure in Student Government to starting a Masters and getting hired at the LEGO Store at Tysons Corner, life has been far too life-y and eventful. But now that things are falling more manageably into place, I'm hoping to get back into the swing of things here and revive a few projects on hold since last year's BrickFair. Anywho, thus Zatth rose from the Shadow Realm to once again prowl BZP. Or something like that!

Posting after 60 days? Seems like revival to me... *Dr. Frankenstein voice* IT'S ALIVE. *Mary Shelley voice* No. It's closed. Topic closed.

I'm glad I pulled a Netflix and waited until the end to bINGE ON THE WHOLE THING (but also super amazing hearty congrats, friend! to chart your progress in different forms and produce this leaves us excited to see what else is yet to come on your end )

Closing topic under request of owner. Survey says... YOU ARE THE WEAKEST LINK. Deal or No Deal? (am i doing this game show thing right? no? fine.) SHOW ME TOPIC CLOSED.

Completely by mistake I forgot to post the last episode, so here are two for one! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Omzo0NhuwaU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LVAETHMed0
