The Halcyon Girl she/her Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 A chipmunk was longing for chocolate, and so searched for gold to trade for chocolate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyAarakocra They/Them Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 He ended up with gelt (chocolate coins that are given out as part of Hanukkah), which meant that he could cut out the middleman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NameIess Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 Now he could eat all the gold foil he wanted! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequence she/they Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Until he died, that is. You see, most gold coin foil was made of a mercury/titanium alloy, giving it maximum toxicity while maintaining its shape.

NameIess Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) This was part of a shockingly effective marketing tactic that no one quite knew the origins of. Edited January 23, 2023 by UnfortunatelyNamed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequence she/they Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 Shockingly effective in killing people without giving the company liability. You see, Golden Coin foil was so delicious, most people simply ate it and hoped for the best.They signed a waiver too, of course. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookwyrm he/him Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 One of the Golden Coin Foil eaters turned out to be an allomancer. A Mistborn, specifically. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequence she/they Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 Unfortunately, titanium and mercury couldn't be burned for abilities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NameIess Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Fortunately, her family managed to successfully sue the company for passing off dangerous metals as allomantically viable alloys.

The Bookwyrm he/him Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 Unbeknownst to anyone, those three spikes and their power were coveted by a very powerful being. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sequence she/they Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 Kilometers Fiftylives was down to his last fifteen or so lives, sadly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NameIess Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 But he had a buyer who’d pay him ten lives for just one of those spikes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookwyrm he/him Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 And he was really scared of dying. Who knew what the afterlife would be like with Narrators in charge. So he would do anything to get one of the spikes, even if it meant sacrificing millions of lives. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NameIess Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 And so both hunters set out to steal the spikes from their new owners. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookwyrm he/him Posted January 25, 2023 Report Share Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) @TheGreatSnail Come join this insanity. The first of these owners was a Bilbo Baggins impersonator who lived in a very extravagant hobbit hole. The infiltration plan involved digging another hobbit hole that "accidentally" connected to the Fake Bilbo's hole, stealing the spike, then leaving.
