CAPTCHA:
As I awoke, I realized that Zou was unfit for dictating the fortress. I then put myself in power, forcing him to submit with a glass blade I built (piece of stuff broke right after) and took over. Things changed.
When I got started, I told the dwarves to dig out a new bedding chamber under the meeting area, since they had been idiotic enough to build them in rooms far away. It took a good week, but we had beds. They then dug out a barracks, and, as I heard of Dropshock's aspiration of a legendary axedwarf, I drafted him into the military as well as myself.
Wielding two swords, I named myself "Slayer" as I became a novice at wielding blades. Dropshock made much slower progress, as he had to train with a shield, since I wasn't going to fight a goddamn dragon. While I trained, much progress has been made in the mine, and when I got reports of semi-molten rock, I told them to stop, as superstition told me of the dangers of digging to deep.
Once the mine had been dug like ten loving miles down, I decided I had done enough in the way of digging. After that, I drew my attention to fluids. I was interested in it, so I made a few improvements to our fort. I built a well, since the brewer was a lazy starfish (ironically, unlike Chonesis, who requested to be called a "lazy british bastard") and I created a few suprises to invaders. I cut off most of the enterances and built a drawbridge which might as well have been the only door inside, without running through the drainage chamber (more on that later), but any goblins would be loving dead so why would it matter? If I cared enough, I would stem the river flow and build some goddamn grates since chances are whatever the starfishs are on would end up saying "oh a grate made of salt, forget that I aint breakin that, it must be made of some sort of goddamn solid acid that is melting into the water."
I have no idea why they would still try to loving attack, their rider is deader than neccesary so what's the point?
The next morning, I told the lazy douchebags to build a water wheel, but the damn carpenter was at a party. I then told kearn to build it. He didn't want to, but I doubt he'd want to piss off a sworddwarf. He grudgingly built it, and then I noticed a problem, my "suprise" wasn't working correctly, and water was flooding into the hall. I told them to get rid of the grate and gear assembly that was making the piece of stuff work, and then build a floodgate in it's place. Sure, it's two more mechanisms, but it's not like we're going to loving run out of goddamn stone. It took the metalsmith ages to build the dump zone crusher, since there was so much loving stone we had no loving idea how the goddamn lazy bastards with nothing to do managed to stack all of the stone. It took him half of the loving year to move it all, and built it. I'm not going to bother moving all of the stone back, so I just said forget it and discontinued it. (There was 21 pages of rock salt and a little diorite and possibly orthlocase, I had to tell him to stop working when he was thirsty)
Once I finished my liquid system, and stopped caring about a design flaw in the drowning trap (there was two drawbridges to trap starfishs in there, but it can flood out to the outside), I noticed Dropshock was oddly skulking. I followed the skullforgeter around, and noticed he was plotting my death being a badass, so I then resigned and let him reign the lousy fortress. Once i'm ready to reclaim the throne, I'm thinking about trying a few new things out.
Notes: The four levers are for much different things. The one on the top left is for the outside drawbridge, the one one the top right controls the underground tree farm floodgate (do not pull), the bottom left is for the drowning trap triggering, the bottom right is for draining the drowning chamber. Dwarves can also walk through axels, so yeah. The waterfall is for powering water wheels for numerous purpouses. You can make it branch, but don't expect it to work like a dream. Cheemo also is a legendary mason since he got a fey mood and some random stonecarver made the coal earrings while possesed.
