ladyaly : I'm glad your trip to Vienna worked out well. It's a shame the weather wasn't a willing participant, but I trust Vienna has plenty of things to offer in case of bad weather? And I suppose you now have an excuse to go back there  The last couple of days went surprisingly well. My mom got the results back from a test and they were all fine thankfully. There's still all the crap going on at work. Seeing others getting all the nice opportunities despite leaving a mess most of the time, doing things not work-related and not finishing the tasks they're supposed to do ain't much fun. So I've been having a rough time breathing these last couple of weeks because of all the stress/annoyances, but the last couple of days were good. Still nothing from Tup . I hope it's because he's tired of this place and not something unthinkable. I really wish people would just leave a message if they planned on disappearing instead of making others worry. Btw isn't it kinda odd to worry about people you hardly even know?

GroundSquirrel Its still a shame- If I look at my Pics its so grey - washed out colors ... and 13° is near Winterfeeling  But yes - now I have a reason to go back again. Good to hear some things are running smoothly for you. If I see what you wrote I am happy to work from home office now. I can only agree with you - people let others behind without a word. But oh well, as you said - we even don't know him. It maybe odd - but we are caring persons - right ?

It must be pretty awesome to be able to work from home and not have to deal with colleagues who fail to do their jobs. There's one colleague who spends most of the time video chatting with his girlfriend while his team mates do most of the work. Others are watching entire TV series and soccer matches and the very few people who are still willing to do their jobs get to clean up the mess they leave. They really should get their asses kicked, but my boss doesn't care. It is odd. Especially for someone who's not a people person. I always end up caring though. Even when I know it's going to bite me in the ass someday. Next part of the Atlantis DLC will be out this week and it's weekend for me now. I guess I've got my work cut out for me  |

Terrible - I would kick them in their asses tbh ... and your Boss, too. I'm not a people person, either. Very bad experiences with friendships and the like in the past. But I do still care for people I know vaguely - yeah it is ODD. I did play the *Bad Day* Tale. I really really love this one  I laughed so much about *Chickaros* and the gaze duell between Ikaros and the imposter.   this describes pretty much a bad day from start to end |

ladyaly : Awww look at poor Kass  Heh yeah, they should all get their asses kicked at work, but especially my manager. The only thing he does is driving a wedge between people. Shift workers vs. Daytime workers Shift workers vs. Shift workers And even in the teams there's trouble. The whole place is looking more and more like some psychiatric ward lol I suppose we can shake hands then on the people person bit. Like you I suppose I can't stop caring. Everyone deserves a fair chance, even though I know it's bound to bite me in the ass again sometime. Glad you had fun playing that Lost Tales episode. Does this mean your top 3 has changed? Mine still stands. I guess the only negative thing I can say about it is that there should have been more Ikaros vs Chickaros  Some more random screenshots:
So this is how the guards get rid of the ones who gave their life for their cause.
Pretty brutal |

I started my playthrough of the second part of the Fate of Atlantis DLC: Torment of Hades. Obviously this one deals with the underworld and the place is looking rather gloomy. Quite a change compared to Elysium. It feels like the map is a bit smaller compared to Elysium as well, but that might not be a bad thing? Time will tell I suppose. Up until now I'm enjoying the whole thing  |

I just finished the Torment of Hades episode. I thought the fight in the beginning was a pain in the behind, but I'll take that back now. It took me over 30 mins to take down the boss at the end. I'm surprised it only took me two tries, because I came close to being desynchronized so many times that I didn't think I was going to make it. Building up adrenaline was really hard, so I could barely use any of my abilities. And if I did have some adrenaline built up I'd have to spend it on restoring health. I think this fight was even more frustrating than the one against Medusa  There were quite a few bits in this part of the DLC that I really loved. There were parts where I laughed and parts that had me in tears too (and not because it was bad). Although maybe the present day stuff is going to give me tears, because that part makes no sense at all.
Btw looted this waist in my second Kassandra run: Anh Ki's Excessively Heavy Waist.
I haven't seen it before in my 600+ hours of playing the game. Wonder how long it will take to find the matching other parts of that armor.

Looks pretty nice Gratulations. Maybe they did add it after you went it through first. Atm I'm hunting the Armor of the Fallen - means running around searching, finding travel spots and so on. Its a very dark place and sometimes the atmosphere is so thick you can feel it in your throat  |

It does look nice. My Kass does like to look flashy you know There aren't a whole lot of armor pieces to match it with though. I found that quite a few pieces I like that are clipping pretty bad, which irritates me (only a little .) Good luck finding the armor pieces. Took me some time to get them all, but that was because I was busy doing other things first. Didn't find it too hard to obtain them. |

Armor is done and 1 guard left I have to admitt the tasks for Charon are funny. He is anyway a interesting person and calling Kassandra *fleshling* makes me always giggle. And the Quest for the tissue was... wonderful and sad the same way. Love Kassandra's expression   |

But yes - now I have a reason to go back again.
I laughed so much about *Chickaros* and the gaze duell between Ikaros and the imposter.
no more words needed
