See, the title even has a double meaning! "Martial Law" refers to the military lockdown over the area, HOWEVER it can also be considered a pun over the fact it knows judo. A martial art. You could say, its "martial law".

Believe it or not I spent all of five minutes thinking and typing that out, combined. Glorious, I know. I'm waiting on a call back from Marvel. Or Fox....or Sy-fy. Or anyone. I posted my film draft on every single telephone pole in the North America so it's just a matter of time really.

Out of the ones listed, sy-fy is the most likely candidate , and all of them are owned by the mouse.
So Disney is the most likely candidate

The time updates make this all worthwhile

OOC: Okay!

Pitkind: Demons and Fiends is now complete! The most noteworthy change in the revamp for this section is that, in hindsight, demons are actually more of a lawful evil as they are written now. Just describing how they are, how they operate. Their hierarchy. While individuals may certainly be chaotic evil, Perdition as a whole really is more of a lawful evil. Quite different from the chaotic evil that at least I had always been envisioning/imagining over the years.

Not happy with how "blocky" the entry is though, there's not really a way to make the paragraphs smaller in terms of information. My only options would be either skimming out Fiends and giving them their own section, but there's not really enough to them to do so, OR to make it five paragraphs instead of four. But then it would look bad for a different reason and I'm not sure which is worse: Five paragraphs or four blocks.

When did you learn to speak fish? I'm sorry, I'm not fluent. Something about "motor" and a "hankering"? Are you hungry but your transportation died?

Now that he has some extra cash Bey decides to go and buy the throw rug he spotted earlier. Should reduce how many times he has to clean the floor after Seki tromps through with muddy boots. But on his way back a strangely delectable smell of cooking meat catches his attention. It leads him to a booth he hasn't seen before, what basically amounts to a food truck missing its wheels and side panels. An old scruffy white dog is laying down in front of it next to the service counter, where an oddly squat man with giant widely spaced eyes over his bristling mustache stares at Bey walking up to him.
"Dog?"
Bey blinks.
"Dog." The odd man's speech is somewhere in between 'can't speak Puriran' or 'I've had enough of your sh*t'. He turns and points to tubes of meat currently on his grill without breaking eye contact.
"... What?"
"Dog. Yes no."
"Uhhh..." Bey looks at the pooch and questioningly points at it. "Dog?"
The dog stiffens up and prepares to run away.
"No!" The odd man shakes his head and points at the meat tubes again. "Not dog."
Bey can feel his brain cells dying. "What."
The way the man grunt-sighs almost makes Bey blow him up. "Dog." The man points at the meat tubes. He then points at the mutt. "Dog."
"Ok..."
He then points back at the meat. "Not dog."
"Just..." Bey nearly has an aneurysm. "So. That's CALLED a dog."
"Yes."
"But not... MADE of dog."
"Yes."
"... Why?"
The man built like a square shrugs.
"I-" Bey just cradles his temples and thinks happy thoughts. "Fine. I'll take one."
The man steps fully up to the counter, puts both palms flat on its surface, and stares Bey hard in the face. "How?"

Never before have I questioned the existential trauma someone who has never heard of a "hot dog" might possibly go through.

This has brought forth a great pain I have suffered since I was relocated to the forest.
As a great consumer of all-beef hotdogs in the Chicagoland area, there is one thing I miss more than almost anything else from the period of time that I once lived there.

Poppy
Seed
Buns.

LONG have I craved such an item with my delectable meat based food.
LONG have I been DENIED such an item due only to biased regional preferences.
Nowhere in this gods' forsaken wilderness do they sell them. It's like they simply do not exist.

Banner? Like, for your nation? Why not just have a halo-ish space station or something of the like? Hell even just a backdrop of a UNSC fleet would fit

no, for the region. That's a thing now.

Wah, regional banners?

Why not lean into the meme and have it be a bowl of chili peppers

I don't think the banner is big enough for 5 years worth of me getting memed on

Nonsense, have the banner be composed of all the best lines. Not all of them. For big memes you can summerize it all in a sentence.
