Prompt: Mark and Ty calming Eth down when he’s really stressed/anxious. Thank you @tythaningalltheway for the prompt!! (Ps I didn’t know if you wanted it to be more shippy or just platonic so I tried to leave it open to interpretation) Ethan groaned in frustration. All he wanted to do was finish editing this video for his channel so he could start working on some of Mark’s videos. But his computer decided now was the best time to do automatic updates. Ethan wasn’t as pissed as he was worried.
He knew he needed to get at least one of Mark’s and one of his own videos done today or else he’ll be behind on editing. Ethan was already not putting out as much content as he thought he should be. Ever since he moved out to LA, his scheduling had been fucked up. He knew the others in the house had tried to make his transition as easy as possible. And it did help some.
But it didn’t help that he could only edit when at the office and that Mark made a rule that no one was allowed to edit past 9 pm. Back home, Ethan was use to editing into the early hours of the morning. That was one way how he was able to get two videos out each and every day plus work on a lot of Mark’s content. Now he could only get at least one video uploaded a day and was barely getting through Mark’s videos. Ethan didn’t realize he was hyperventilating until he felt a hand on his shoulder.
Ethan jumped as he whipped around, scaring the other person as much as he scared himself. “Woah there buddy,” A soothing voice said. “I need you to breathe. Can you breathe, Ethan?” It took a minute for Ethan to realize that the voice belonged to Mark. Ethan’s first instinct was to run. He didn’t really know why, but he felt trapped and needed to get away.
That was, until big muscular arms engulfed him and scooped him up out of his chair. Ethan looked up to see Tyler’s face looking back at him with concern.
Ethan wanted to cower away. “Hey now Ethan.” Tyler said gently. “You’re okay. Breathe.” Ethan was a shaking mess by the time Tyler got him to the couch. Tyler started rubbing circles on his back. Ethan almost didn’t notice Mark placing a blanket around him. Ethan turned his head and looked at him.
Mark sighed and wiped his thumb under Ethan’s eye. Ethan was suddenly aware of wetness on his face and realized he must’ve been crying. “Do you need anything, bud?” Mark ask in a soft tone. “Could- could I have some water please?” Ethan asked timidly. “Yeah of course.” Mark smiled. As Mark made his way to their kitchenette, Ethan leaned into Tyler’s side.
Tyler instantly started playing with Ethan’s hair. Ethan let out a little hum and closed his eyes. “Feeling any better?” Tyler asked.
Ethan nodded. Thanks.” “Do you wanna talk about what just happened over there?” “I uh I-” Ethan could feel the anxiety rising back up. Ethan’s eyes darted around frantically before locking eye contact with Mark. Mark seemed to realize what was going on, or at least that Ethan needed help, and quickly came over to the couch. “Here’s your water.“ Mark smiled. Ethan took it gratefully and gulped it down.
“Its getting late we should head home soon.“ Mark said, looking at his watch. “Sounds like a good idea to me. Ethan?” Tyler looked at him for a response.
“Huh?” Ethan stopped drinking so he could hear. “You ready to go to the house?” “Uh” Ethan glanced towards his computer. “The videos can wait. Its ok, Ethan.” Mark said. Ethan just nodded before standing up. Ethan can sense both Mark’s and Tyler’s eyes on him the entire time. He kept his head down as he went back to his desk to grab his phone.
“You ready?” Tyler placed a hand on Ethan’s shoulder, almost protectively. “Yeah.” Ethan said, slightly leaning into his touch. Tyler smiled as he led them to his car. They piled in.
Tyler driving, Mark sitting shotgun, and Ethan in the back looking out the window. Mark and Tyler almost instantly started up a conversation and only a few minutes later, they realized Ethan’s responses had faded out. They looked back to see Ethan curled up asleep in the back seat. “Poor kid.” Mark sighed. Tyler just nodded in agreement. “Should we wake him or?” “Nah, I’ll carry him in.” Mark got out once the car was parked and opened Ethan’s door.
Mark carefully slid an arm behind Ethan’s back and an arm under his knees. Mark carried him bridal style through the house, with Tyler opening doors for him until they made it to Ethan’s bedroom. “Alright we should get out and let him sleep.” Tyler said from the doorway. “I’d love to but uh” “But what?” “He’s not letting go.” Tyler looked over and saw Ethan clinging to Mark’s arm like it was a stuffed animal. Tyler chuckled. “Should we take him to the couch then and watch a couple of movies til he wakes up?” Mark suggested. “Sounds like a plan.” time skip Ethan woke the next morning to find himself squished between Tyler and Mark.
The tv was left on and there was discarded plates and cups on the coffee table, which led Ethan to believe they didn’t fall asleep there on purpose. Ethan pulled the blanket that was draped across him up to his chin before snuggling back down. Ethan had a soft smile on his face as he drifted back to sleep. Hello everyone! In today’s New XKit update, we’re laying the groundwork for supporting Firefox 57′s release. This update adds WebExtension support for XKit and includes a migration step to make sure everyone keeps the same config both before and after the change.
Because WebExtensions will be the only platform supported for Firefox going forward, it’s important that you install this update so you can continue to access your config in future versions. Immediately after upgrading you may encounter a brief pause where Tumblr or Firefox ceases to respond to you for a couple seconds before everything runs normally. This is should only happen if you are running Firefox on a toaster made out of wood, but we want to make sure that you know there is nothing to be afraid of. Your XKit should update automatically within the next few days, but if you want to hurry the process along, you can download it directly from (XPI file). Let’s imagine for a moment that you’re a game designer working for Blizzard on the next expansion for World of Warcraft. Your job is to create, modify, and balance items for the expansion. What kind of information do you think is necessary to create an item?
Well, let’s think about it. First and foremost, the item will need a unique ID number, probably generated for you so you don’t accidentally duplicate the same ID for two different items. The item has to have a name. That name will also need to be localized into each of the languages the game supports, so it needs its name in each language. It has to have a rarity, which will affect its stat budget. It has to have an item level, which also factors into its stat budget. Most items one or two specific types of rating bonuses (e.g.
Haste, versatility, mastery, critical strike), some primary attack stat number (intellect, strength, agility), and a bonus stamina number. Every item has an equipment slot, even if the slot is “inventory-only”, or an item type that determines what sort of thing it is (weapon, armor, potion, etc.).
These items might have class restrictions, be part of a set, have procs, or an on-use effect. The item must have an icon ID for inventory use, a level requirement, and (if equippable) a model reference ID so the game knows what visual to apply to the character wearing it.
These are all qualities shared every item in World of Warcraft, and many of them have mathematical formulae that must be applied (such as using the item level to determine the exact value of a specific bonus). Now consider you want a tool that can automatically enforce certain mathematical rules for specific shared values across the hundreds of items you’ll be creating, and the thousands of items that already exist. You probably want to be able to sort and filter specific qualities, like only showing rare wrist armors, or legendary capes.
You probably want to be able to look at multiple items at the same time, so that you can compare the ones you did to the old ones, or make the same change apply to many of them at the same time. You need a way to organize all these data at a glance. So how do you organize this all? The magic comes when you realize that every attribute you need to track and/or edit can be treated as a column in a spreadsheet, and each individual item can be a row in that spreadsheet. If you do that, Excel can run the math for you. You can write macros to limit the cells in a specific column to choose from a specific set of possible choices. You can filter them and sort them by specific attribute.
You can copy and paste as needed. You can set up formulas to automatically update when values are changed. You can use the built-in graphing and charting to look at curves and see if groups of items are behaving the way you expected. This is why excel is an awesome game design tool and why it is used in development studios all over the world. It isn’t limited to just itemization either.
This is applicable to any type of content where you have a lot of unique attributes on each of a lot of different individual entries. This could mean spells, abilities, bonuses, modifiers, crafting recipes, experience level tables, treasure drop tables, enemy spawn rates, NPC attributes, or any of a hundred other types of content. It’s all about being able to edit data in a way that is less bug-prone and more visually intuitive. Excel has excellent macro documentation and support from Microsoft, and can even turn the data values into graphs so you can verify the growth rate looks like what you want. How do you learn to do this stuff? You must learn how to write excel macros to pull data and apply math and formulas from other cells.
Think about really big spreadsheets and what you need to pull the information you need out of them quickly. Then, go to any of the excel macro tutorial sites and start digging. Excel is just a tool like any other editor; it has a lot of documentation and support already. Got a burning question you want answered?.
Short questions:. Long questions:. Frequent questions. Pinching the bridge of his nose, Obi-Wan gave a low sigh of frustration before he seemed to throw his hands up in surrender and reaching into his belt and pulling out a pair of spectacles to everyone’s surprise.
They were golden thin wired, rectangular with thicker arms that seemed padded along with the padding over the bridge that went over the nose. “Obi-Wa-” Anakin started before watching his master casually put a finger in his left eye and seemingly flickering something away before he put on the glasses. “Obi-Wan, what the kriff?” Anakin gaped.
“That was me getting rid of the only contact lenses I have and putting on my glasses Anakin.” Obi-Wan offered calmly as he started rereading the report, feeling the headache easing a bit as he processed the information without straining his eyes. “Aren’t you suppose to wash your hands before putting your fingers in your eyes for that kind of thing?” Ashoka blinked, staring at him. “And you got glasses?” “I agree with her, you got glasses?” Anakin repeated. Obi-Wan hummed, giving an absent shrug as he continued reading.
I can’t use the eye correction medication nor the surgery. So my best options were contact lenses since its so easy to lose your glasses in a lightsaber battle. I still have a pair for emergency though.” “They suit you master Obi-Wan.” Ahsoka swung her legs back and forth while sitting on a table, elbows resting on her thighs with a small grin. “You look even more distinguished if that was possible.” Obi-Wan made a low chuckling noise.
“I hated them as a child. In the crechewell they were a target for my childhood bully.” He offered in amusement.
“Four eyed Oafy-Wan.” His chuckle trailed off. Doesn’t Bant call you you Oafy-Wan?” Anakin found his voice again, taking a few steps over to the other mans side.
“Occasionally, yes. Mirah the garden cd. Its a nickname that no longer hurts because its no longer used by a bully but a dear friend.
And I’ve let go of whatever Bruck used to call me” Obi-Wan looked up then smiled at him. “It doesn’t matter anymore Anakin.” The blond would have responded if Cody hadn’t just walked into the tent. “General Kenobi I ju-oh!” The commander stared at his General in surprise before smiling. “Did you lose your contact lenses sir?” “Yes Cody, I’ll have new ones in a weeks time but until then I will have to wear my glasses.” He sighed before chuckling. “And of course you knew I wore glasses.” “Yes sir, I did study your profile.
There’s a reason there’s never hoi-broth on the menu.” The clone shrugged before launching into the report for them. Anakin blinked. He was starting to wonder if he should take a look into Obi-Wan’s profile and history. He never desired to study it before but now he was starting to wonder if he should.
The copper haired Jedi nodded occasionally to what the commander was saying, humming in understanding and giving the appropriate response as light glittered of the golden rim of his glasses and the glass. “Do they update themselves automatically?” Ahsoka suddenly asked curiously, interrupting Cody. Is that really important right now Ahsoka?” Obi-Wan raised his brows.
“No but I’m curious. You just put them on without any concern and you looked like the headache you had disappeared less then five minutes later.” She shrugged, sitting up and waving her hands. “I mean, doesn’t it usually take time to adapt between contact lenses and glasses?” Obi-Wan sighed then shook his head. “Usually yes, but like you suspected, these updates themselves automatically.” He took his glasses of carefully, showing them the inner side of the left golden bar where Anakin could spot faint lights. These adjusts the glasses to the strength I need as long as the changes in my eye strengths aren’t to big of a leap. Sometimes I need to have them manually adjusted by an optician but as long as the leap is within a seven change up or down, I can just put my glasses on anytime I don’t have contact lenses.” He put his glasses back on and peered at them over the rim. “Now, let Cody finish his report.” He turned back to the commander.
