Quote: Quote: They were more interested in playing with the children.Quote: If they're still alive when Anna gets home...let's just say she's very defensive about Visionary's kids. For an android built for destruction she gets emotionally attached so easily.There would have to be some kind of rota system for giving Flay and Skinner payback because there's be such a long queue of heroes lining up to give it. Quote: Quote: That's what I was talking about in earlier correspondence when I said I wanted to give the characters a chance to prove their heroism under massively difficult circumstances. I wanted to do a story where they toughed through not because they were powerful but because they were brave and noble.Quote: I kind of like also digging into consequences, too. For quite a while, Lara is going to be shocked that she was able to do that, and maybe a little ashamed, too. She doesn't really want to be one of the most powerful heroes in the Parodyverse, because bitter experience back home showed her that it would also make her the most hunted.It's quite possible that Lara can only do that reverse-thing when she's absolutely drained herself first, or when she's delerious and close to death. Or there may be negative side effects; the last thing she needs is Miss Peel's voice in her head. It's your call. Quote: On the other hand, the other women who are with her aren't above keeping a secret for a friend.And each has a different way of detecting what Lara did. Quote: That said, she is somewhat jealous of Lara's energy projection talents, and might want to try something like that if she had access to something similar. She's most envious that Lara can use energy projections to fly, and to protect others.Apocalyspian tech tends to have a price. Quote: Quote: The first time the LL encountered Thugos was on a parallel Earth that he'd transformed into a zombie planet. It's something a suitor of Death does from time to time. Now he's got an entire Imperium of undead to work with; be sure he'll be setting them to use some time soon - as soon as he's finished with their modifications.Quote: Interesting balance structure here, that the Trading Alliance is still watching then planet. If the undead will be used as an invasion force the Galactic Government may just decide to blow the whole sphere into fragments and leave the undead floating in space. After all, an undead army endangers commerce, since they don't actually buy anything.Quote: Unfortunately they won't send Shen Rae, since she is currently a fugitive. She seems to be providing interesting data to the Library still, though.I wanted to establish a credible galactic threat, and since Thugos is about the heaviest hitting of the cosmic baddies out there it seemed like the way to go. Thugos is a tyrant and a conqueror but he's not a lunatic. He'll negotiate with other powers and seek statesmanlike solutions - most of the time. Quote: Quote: We'll be covering Lara & Co's time as his guests in a subsequent episode.Quote: Hopefully it's a soon subsequent episode.I'd expect to cover it in UT#337. | |||||||
