Believe it or not, those were all the asks. Onward to today’s chapter!
Tag: chapter 14.2
Just finished an EGS archive binge, so thanks for that. (Maybe I’ll get around to Homestuck eventually.)
Nice! I hope you had fun!
Krixwell, please–as if Bonesaw would need someone else’s help to get pregnant.
True enough. Though even she would probably need someone’s… contribution, to make the child not a clone of herself.
It’s worth noting that the “someone” doesn’t need to be male. Especially if she (also) enlists Amy, who could probably convert X chromosomes to Y chromosomes if she tried.
I did find a liveblog of the other thing I wanted to look for a liveblog of, namely the Wheel of Time series.
holy fuck they’ve gotten through 14 out of 16 books (including the prequel and the companion book) in three years i did not expect to find any bloggers that had gotten past like book 3.
Anyway, the blog is @neuxue if you’re interested too.
I just tried (and failed) to see if I could find a liveblog for MLP:FiM – it seems like that’s much more commonly material for video-based reactions – but I did find this in the list of results: a liveblog of Pact.
I figured this might interest some of you if you weren’t aware of it already. I didn’t click through the link, so I know nothing about this blog (re: activity, quality, etc) beyond the fact that quowreadspact is or was a liveblog of Pact. I just hope this helps some of you find something that might interest you. 🙂
There seems to be a theme among at least some of the Nine of great potential wasted on evil.
I mean, you’ve got
- Mannequin, who used to be Sphere, making major progress towards space colonization and helping society in great ways;
- Siberian, who could quite possibly take out an Endbringer if they tried;
- Bonesaw, who could save so many lives and improve the bodies of so many good people if she just understood the concepts of consent and bodily integrity, not to mention provide massive insights into the study of powers and create incredibly useful medical technology;
- Crawler, who is nearly invulnerable and nearly unkillable by anything that does hurt him, and could do so much good by using that huge body of his to protect people;
- Shatterbird, another real powerhouse;
- Pinkie Pie, who could bring smiles to so many faces with normal cupcakes;
- Cherish, who could be used to find missing people and probably to cure certain mental illnesses;
- Burnscar, who could (…save people from burning buildings by teleporting?) probably have become great too if her power’s intoxicating effect and the Nine hadn’t fucked her over;
- and, uh, Jack Slash. I don’t know about him. He’s clever, though, so there’s that.
Ooh, another option for the Interlude scenario: Siberian themself. That’d be cool.
End of Prey 14.2
This was quite solid! Siberian was kept at bay for the most part, but the sense that she was a big threat was nicely kept up throughout the chapter. 🙂
I was bamboozled, but I’m not complaining. I’m all for more Amy (to a much larger extent than more Colin), and while she didn’t get the chance to do much besides run and hide, the third thing she ended up doing could lead to some excellent developments: She had to trust Skitter and let herself be saved by other villains. I wonder how that’s going to make her feel when it comes to her hangups about heroism and villainy, but first and foremost I’m hoping it’ll lead to more amycable relations between Amy and the Undersiders and, through that, more Amy.
Next chapter, we need to keep Siberian from fucking up the other half of the Undertravelers. I’m interested in how this will be presented. We’re definitely not just going to make a phone call and wait to hear how things went, so we’re probably looking at either a) the group we’ve been following arriving at the scene at the beginning of the chapter with Siberian already making a mess of their plans (especially anything that targets Bonesaw), or b) an Interlude from the perspective of someone on that scene before and after Siberian’s arrival. Probably a Traveler if that’s the case, though it is worth noting that Trickster and Sundancer are out of the running since they’re in the wrong group. Genesis, perhaps? Ballistic would be nice too, but Genesis’ power would be more interesting to get a first-person description of.
Of course, there’s also the rest of the Nine to watch out for.
So yeah, that ought to be fun. See you next time!
Wrap-up post tomorrow. We just had a death scare for Mozart (my cat), and while we just now determined (to our massive relief) that the hairs we thought had fallen off him in droves during a fight were actually dog hairs, probably brushed off, we still don’t know where he is. I haven’t quite recovered from the scare yet, and probably won’t until I actually see him.
So yeah, I’m not exactly in a blog-wrapping mood. See you tomorrow for wrap-up and asks.
