It was, of course, quite possible that the Ents wouldn't have done so well in the battle, and that many of them- perhaps even all of them - would have died. The Ents are certainly powerful, but a wizard is an extremely formidable adversary, even for the Ents. Treebeard was wrong about going to his doom, but I'm sure he was happy to be proven wrong. Take the Ents, for instance. I did not consciously invent them at all. The chapter called 'Treebeard', from Treebeard's first remark on p. 66, was written off more or less as it stands, with an effect on my self (except for labour pains) almost like reading some one else's work. And I like Ents now, because they do not seem to have anything to do with me. I daresay something had been going on in the 'unconscious' for some time, and that accounts for my feeling throughout, especially when stuck, that I was not inventing but reporting (imperfectly) and had at times to wait till 'what really happened' came through. 'It was the Huorns, or so the Ents call them in "short language". Treebeard won't say much about them, but I think they are Ents that have become almost like trees, at least to look at. They stand here and there in the wood or under its eaves, silent, watching endlessly over the trees; but deep in the darkest dales there are hundreds and hundreds of them, I believe. Saruman hadn't talked with the Ents (or Treebeard, at least) for a very long time, and I seem to recall Treebeard mentioning that the Ents are "waking up" (although I can't remember the exact quote, the impression is given that they were dormant for a long time and so Saruman may have considered them not to be a potential issue). – Ents eat, or rather drink a specific water beverage. From wiki: Ent-draught was an extremely invigorating drink of the Ents, brewed from the waters of the mountain springs on Methedras. So, Ents are more than just trees who resemble humans in form, are known to speak, walk, drink, etc. The Ents' attack on Orthanc consisted mainly of using their root-like hands to deteriorate the stone walls surrounding the tower, then redirecting streams to flood the area within the walls. Neither of these tactics would be very useful in the Battle of the Pelennor Fields. Treebeard is the oldest Ent. And many of the other Ents are considerably old too. Now, if Treebeard is the first Ent (see my other question), he must have lived through at least 3 ages of time on Arda: When the Children awake, the thought of Yavanna [Ents] shall awake too. 3 ages of time seems like a stretch for a mortal. The Ents—usually a very patient, deliberate people—did become angry at Saruman, whose armies were cutting down large numbers of their trees. Treebeard convened an Entmoot, a meeting of the Ents at Derndingle. There are or were no Ents in the older stories – because the Ents in fact only presented themselves to my sight, without premeditation or any previous conscious knowledge, when I came to Chapter IV of Book Three.

Memory Transcription Subject: Commander Telth, Drezjin Theocracy fleet command. Date:(Standardized Human Time)February 15th, 2161.
I was exhausted. The Krev decided they wanted to show up a few days prior to start shit, and naturally, I had no choice but to oblige. It took a lot out of me though, but at least the planet was safe...
Cthal looked at me through the main screen of the ship, looking on-edge. "We managed to save as many people as possible, including the Drezjin." She spoke.
"That's good to hear." I replied. "I would've come to help, but the fucking Consortium decided they wanted in on the action, so I was stuck here defending my own planet."
The Arxur bobbed her head in acknowledgment. "Due to the fact that I have civilians aboard my ship, I will not touch-down onto the planet until I'm sure that any exterminators on its surface is dealt with. Getting that information will take a couple days at least."
"That's understandable." I replied. "It's almost time to enact the final stage of the plan. Are you ready to begin?"
She flicked her tail in confirmation. "Ready when you are."
I bobbed my head. "Then let us begin." I said before ending the call.
I turned to face my crew. "Alright, when we clear the rest of the area around the planet, we will head down there to pick up your families to evacuate to the Arxur homeworld."
Despite the apprehensive looks on everyone's features, they all complied. No one wanted to be with the Arxur, but with the current situation, we have decided that the Arxur were the lesser evil compared to the Consortium.
My thoughts directed themselves to my wife. I knew Zek wouldn't approve of me making deals with the Arxur, but understand my actions or not, I do these things for my people... For her.
(Three Hours Later.)
After making sure the perimeter of the planet was safe, I put the last step of my plan into action. It was daytime at the moment, so most people were asleep, which made this a whole lot easier. I just hoped that things wouldn't go terribly with the people...

Memory Transcription Subject: Tanca, Drezjin civilian. Date:(Standardized Human Time)February 15th, 2161.
Before Mimzy and her associate had to leave, they Cthal managed to exchange information with them so they could talk over long distances. Cthal looked a little sad to see Mimzy leave, which was understandable...
I milled about the ship, making sure everything was in order. Things have started to calm down these past couple days. The Drezjin that Vulthiss' father tried to eat has made a full recovery, and I had the liberty of personally helping her go back to her mother. They both thanked me before I went around the ship again. That was not the only deed I had done either; I've broken up a couple fights, helped the nurses with a couple of patients, I even helped find a piece of lost jewelry that belonged to a Yotul that worked as a metalworker! All in all, my reputation was building up the longer I stayed here.
Well... If people need it, why shouldn't I help them? I thought to myself.
Altruistic thoughts aside, I strode through the many halls and rooms throughout the ship. I found it quite tough to stay in one spot at once, so I tend to mill about quite often.
Suddenly, the sound of the loudspeaker made itself known. "Tanca, please report to the captain's quarters." It spoke. "Repeat, Tanca please report to the captain's quarters."
I flicked my ears in confusion. I was personally getting called into Cthal's quarters? Why?
Realizing that my questions wouldn't be answered by sitting around, I quickly scampered off to see what I was needed for...
(A Few Minutes Later.)
Opening the door to Cthal's quarters revealed her sitting with Vulthiss on the couch. Their tails began to wag once they saw me approach.
"There's my little Wrissbloom!" Cthal stated as she picked herself off the couch to wrap her arms around me.
"Hi mommy!" I said as she gave me a firm squeeze.
Once she finally let go of me, I fluttered over to the couch with her. "So, what did you need me for?" I asked, inquiring about the notification from the loudspeaker.
"Oh yeah..." Cthal said. "Well, you know about that deal I struck with that Drezjin commander?"
"Yes?" I replied.
"Well, he's enacting the final stage of our agreement. Which involves him bringing a lot of other Drezjin here to escape the current war."
"And what does that have to do with me?" I asked.
Cthal scratched the back of her neck. "Weeeelllll... I have reason to believe that they obviously wouldn't like to be in the same room as a bunch of Arxur. So I was wondering if I could ask you to keep them from causing a stampede in the ship."
"Yep, they would do that." I said, scratching the top of my head. "I'll try to keep them calm, but I can't guarantee anything."
Cthal lashed her tail in acknowledgment. She knew how unpredictable my species could be. I just hoped that I could do what she asked without any trouble.

2024.11.26 22:19 Meriog Beating Spopovich before Supreme Kai stops the match
In Gohan's story mode, there's an optional fight against Spopovich during his match against Videl. You can choose to stop the match and fight him. This fight is programmed for Supreme Kai to stop the match when Spopovich gets down to two and a half bars of hp.
I've discovered that, if you make sure you're in Max power mode at that moment, and fire off your ultimate as soon as you hear Supreme Kai shout "That's enough!" You'll be treated to a bonus scene of the tournament announcer shouting for everyone to run and then Gohan firing off his ultimate, destroying the arena and part of the crowd. I got an achievement for it but I bet most people already get that achievement from Majin Vegeta doing the same thing.
Looking online, I can't find anyone else who's done this and there are several people asking and being told that it's technically possible but that there probably isn't a bonus scene. Google AI even says that. Don't believe their lies. It is possible, and it is cool.

2024.11.26 22:19 Kusunoko Are conditioners any necessary ?
Firstly I only rinse-out with those things when my hair is at least longer than earlobe-length and typically within shampooing because of my gifted/cursed natural oily hair.
From the results, I wonder if they even have any basic essentiality or just for the sake of commerce, luxury, wtv. I hardly see any difference in other word besides the aforementioned greasy ends without shampooing
They aren't my regulars to give the ultimate review about, and I typically skip, but i am familiar with these things enough to give a fair personal experience. And I am not sure if I am not utilizing properly or is conditioning just useless.
As for the leave-in, I've never used it nor I think I want to. Am I missing something ?
