Quote: I'm not arguing that the dramatic fiction is wrong. Everyone from James Bond to Han Solo benefits from it. Where the writer positions his characters on that "realism curve" determines the stule of book they write.I do all sorts of varieties. It just happens that Keiko lives in a world where getting shot sucks. Quote: Quote: The other touch of real-ish I like to add is she explains to someone once that because she's relatively small and lightweight, she has to end a fight very quickly, because the longer it drags on, the higher the probability that she'll be injured or killed.Quote: That's in line with a number of self-defence doctrines, but I'm not familiar with the details.It is. And in Keiko's case it goes double, because she's quick and knows how to use what little weight she has; but she's also in the category where one good hit from a man of any size and she's out cold. So she also has to hit early and use the element of surprise. She can't do like Indiana Jones and have a long battle with the biggest guy on the field. Quote: That huge influx of refugees will be mixing and interacting for the first time. Anna and Nena will undoubtedly get hit on by the horny Racoons and co-opted to help coax ghost robots back into their shells ("the right shells please. This isn't an opportunity to upgrade..!"). As far as I know this may be their first opportunity to meet and interact with the rhot community, and especially rhe larger not-human-looking faction that are suspicious of "posh skinjobs".This is where their personalities might differ drastically: Anna is extremely charitable and task-driven. She would continue to help the robots even if they call her names. Nena, on the other hand, would feel hurt and unappreciated and walk off. She would have to be convinced to come back. Fortunately Anna is pretty good at convincing her. Quote: I don't expect to cover the Lemurian trip except is passing reference so feel free to go at it if you want. Remember that the Shoggoth will be there (he's carrying the robot ghosts and it's quite hard for him) and that his chymeric gate to Earth is now down so no word from outside is possible.I'll see what I can do, since the after-this-is-all-over story has now been re-written 5 times and still sucks. Quote: Quote: I believe so far, Lara Night is the only one of my characters that has any kind of actual experience of what the barrier does to her powers, so she's less fearful of what potentially might happen. She knows it won't kill her outright. I suppose the question might come up why she doesn't evacuate people to her own universe; the answer is she doesn't really know if she can even take passengers there, and she doesn't want to obliterate friends by accident while experimenting to see if it works. That's Al B Harper's job.Quote: As you may have seen, Lara features in the next chapter.Chiaki promised her that she would stay alive, so at least she doesn't have that to worry about. Quote: It's really not a side-quest. It's a breakthrough.Noted. | |||||||
