Yeah, I’d say Opal>Menja>Mt Lady>Ginormica. Opal has extra powers and limbs as well as experience, Menja is experienced, can shift her size and has extra protection from her power, Mt Lady can size shift and has training as a hero. Ginormica is clearly at a disadvantage here, she has less options tactically since she’s stuck in giant form and she’s basically a civilian with barely any combat experience.

Yeah, this sounds about right.

It’s also worth noting that Menja’s size shifting is more versatile than Mt. Lady’s, since according to the MHA wiki, Mt. Lady only has two sizes she can be: 1.62 m or 20.62 m. Menja can adjust her size gradually, which might come in handy. On the other hand, maybe this means Mt. Lady’s growth/shrinking is much faster, which could be used to hide and then suddenly grow to catch the enemy off-guard.

I’m not sure how much you really touched on the reveal that Taylor fully intends to rebel against Coil once it becomes clear that he’s going back on the deal?

I didn’t really mention it because it didn’t feel like a reveal. We already knew she strongly dislikes him and has been contemplating the idea of saving Dinah by force. All this really does is make it clear that she believes she’s desperate enough to actually try if her current approach doesn’t work.

At this point, after Taylor has gone two Arcs spending every waking hour doing her best to save Dinah, that doesn’t really surprise me.

The biggest problem with it is that going against Coil means potentially breaking up what’s left of “the Undersiders”, since far from all of them are okay with the idea of such a rebellion. Which puts Taylor in a position where she’ll have to make another hard choice: Friends, or Dinah?

As it stands right now, I’m honestly not sure what she’d pick. If she picked Dinah, I think the Undersiders (possibly minus Bitch) would eventually come back together somehow, even if not together together as a team, but that’s a sidenote to the decision itself.

From someone’s tumblr post while I was scrolling through your response to asks.

Taaaayloooorrrr!

The Wheel of Time does not have a character named Rose, but the last queen of Manetheren was called Ellisande (Rose of the Sun) by her people.

Nice. It’s a little iffy as far as counting towards the Rose bouquet goes, but it works.

I suppose Rose is just too real a name for the setting. It’s not like you’re likely to run into people named Bob or Peter in the Westlands. Then again, we do have Mat(rim) Cauthon.

“Random 4 AM prediction: At some point there will be a character (if there isn’t one already) whose civilian name is Rose.” Check out Annette Rose Hebert.

(Apparently there were a lot of asks about this.)

Ooh, nice. That totally counts!

“(I’m “Member of the Midnight Crew” in this screenshot.)” – I think you accidentally a word. I’m pretty sure there’s supposed to be an “a” after “I’m” and before “Member”.

Heh. 😛

Well, not when “Member of the Midnight Crew” is a proper noun, a nickname.

But hey, I’m a night owl and a wise bird too. I suppose birds aren’t known for their grammar skills.

And apparently she’s not the only one who has it, either. Let’s not forget that tidbit.” I missed that tidbit.

It’s heavily implied by one of Shatterbird’s lines in her/Hookwolf’s Interlude:

“Guess the men who bought my power should ask for a refund.”

By the sound of it, she’s either sold her power, most likely via Cauldron, or she bought the power from them herself. In the latter case, it’d be odd that she suggested other buyers should ask for a refund and not she herself, so I’m leaning towards the former.

Ra: What makes it magic? It was a lately discovered, and fit a lot of the definitions of fantasy magic. To quote the main character: “-magic is the worst-named field of science in the world. It was a lousy, stupid nickname for some genuinely new physics, and it stuck, and now everybody hates the man who coined it. Including himself. Magic isn’t magic. It is a field of science.”. I’d also say that Ra is much *much* more sci-fi then fantasy.

Oh, and qntm (the author) is currently rewriting the ending of Ra.

Niice. I like that it’s addressed like this.

Susan and Victoria could bond over their shared hobby: hitting people who anger them very hard with large blunt objects. (Not to mention, depending on the point in the timeline, the parallels with Ellen re: cute girl with an aura that may or may not make you bisexual …)

Hah, nice!
