Wow, the effects are really starting to spread now. Just about everyone is finding themselves limited if not outright existence-challenged due to whatever is rewriting the rules. Impressive that they still managed to take down some randy rampaging monsters despite all of this, and save the school bus of children as well. There's a whole field of study to be done on the bus thing, and a lot of variables to cover, but I think there could be some grant money in there somewhere. Still, I suppose the team has some pressing concerns right now.

Excellent team dynamics with this group... they're well suited to action in the traditional heroic manner. I enjoyed the little character flip between Citizen Z and Beth as well. That's a juicy set up to work with.

    We really have an overwhelming number of humanoid female robots, cyborgs, and A.I.s (and exactly no non-evil male ones that I can think of; the nearest is AlfRED). So it's not like we'd miss one or two, right?


Hey, I'm real dam... wait, you're saying that I am. Or that I'm evil. In any event, I did churn out a few male robosapiens now and again when needed, but I don't think any of them have recurred.

What I really like about Tandi is that she fulfills the job of parodying something specific (be it the Austin Powers style sexbots or the Westworld ones or whatever they might actually be building over in Japan) but also serves as the closest thing to an "average" robosapien. I really like the idea of her as Hallie's kind of civilian friend.

That said, if you absolutely feel that there are too many female robots, I have no objection to her being put back inside a male sexbot body for a change of pace.

    We're quite well off for sexy supernatural women too, so a cull there is possibly also due. Fortunately we now have the mechanism.


Stop thinning our strategic reserves, dammit!

    There's a perfectly acceptable bit of bay for it to sink into. It's not like Vizh isn't used to sunken houses.


That's true, but once you live above-ground for a while it's hard to go back.

    All in all these feel like mean replies, so in mitigation let me say that I have just started writing a chapter with three of your old-time favourites teamed up together with three of the oldest supporting characters from BZL against an adversary who is not that fond of Visionary.


They were mean replies, and you're a mean man for typing them. But I am intrigued by your hint, regardless. Although the adversary bit doesn't really narrow it down too much.
