Since we’re openly discussing the number thing, I have to ask: why is Casey the only one with a different name next to their number?


Am I a joke to you

Wryly
ok, so why 4 over the remaining numbers?


It's my body count.

It's how many Harry Potter books I liked.

It's how gay I thought you were on a scale of 1 to 10.


Lol idk dude I just picked a number based on those still available. Probably has more to do with a Fantastic Four ad I'd just seen on TikTok than anything. I had no idea what you were up to and still don't. Are you going to enlighten us here?

For justification:

I’m trying to word it in a way that won’t get me modkikled. But essentially I’m Tug, Will’s ranger horse. I can detect danger before it reaches my rider which has benefited Will throughout the series and saved his life. This is basically the justification for being the asceticizer.

I know the justification and the role makes zero sense to me.


"I'm a horse that senses danger" = a power that nullifies any action, harmful or helpful, but not kills? Seems odd to me but fair enough.

This will probably spoil me for the series if I ever decide to read it, and I'm a huge sci fi/fantasy fan, but oh well.


After reading Tug's wiki page I'm still not seeing the Asceticiser connection.
