Re: Page 220: Clearing the Path

But there is a more fundamental problem with the "Tempo is in control" scenario (where are people discussing this, by the way?), which is, if a Loroi can exert that much control over Alex while he is unconscious, then what stopped them on board the Tempest? He was unconscious then too. The entire p...

Yeah, its almost like there's a Historian construct in the room, sans the humor. ;)
Alex has a keen sense of humor, but he doesn't dare use it. His brand of humor could get him killed.

Re: Page 221: Big realizations and Big Doors

Seems like it might make for some possibly fatal (for Alex) jump-scares of the Loroi if Alex does get separated from Beryl or the Loroi otherwise lose track of him, no? Or maybe they can still sense he's there (and certainly I'd think he would 'read' as non-Umiak), just nothing more than a presence...

Re: Page 220: Clearing the Path

I think this speculation about Tempo being in control is a red herring. My speculation is, only a Teidar has telepathy powerful enough to crack the Human lotai, and it requires the Human's cooperation to get anything at all. If Alex and Fireblade were to consciously work together (hah), they might u...

Re: Deliverance

This is possibly the most disturbingly horrifying story I've willingly read in, well, ever. The fact you kept me engrossed despite my incredible discomfort speaks to your talent as a writer. That said, I really want to see justice done. From Lagertha to Eternal Endurance, they all need to be destroy...

Yep, he has realized what a stupid idea it is to provoke Fireblade.

Re: Page 220: Clearing the Path

Well, if Fireblade does not understand what is going on, in spite of the fact that she was apparently ordered to connect to him, then Alex may be more powerful than she is mentally, and could even be in control of the process, even though he isn't consciously aware of it. I don't think that's true....

I am a 56 year old curmudgeon and I thought the first one was pretty darn good.
So I will probably get round to seeing the new one.
Heh, and here I thought I was going to be the elderly curmudgeon of the forum. You're only three years behind me.

Re: Page 220: Clearing the Path

Fireblade is the Loroi who tried forcibly to penetrate Alex's lotai. Sure, she was under orders from Stillstorm, but he perceived the attempt as a painful mindrape. Is any wonder that Jardin remains wary and verbally hostile to her? That's true, and the "Nuremberg defense" doesn't fly for humans ge...

Re: Page 220: Clearing the Path

The problem with ascribing motives to Fireblade re: Jardin is that we the readers are not privy to sanzai, and Fireblade doesn't speak. We, as well as he, could be badly misinterpreting her actions and reactions toward him. We don't know because, again, she doesn't speak. Loroi seem like us, but the...

Re: I Have a Question For the Forum

Now that I sit here thinking about it, for the fanfic to make sense to nearly everyone, they'd have to go read the abandoned RP first. *scratches at goatee* That's a big ask. I need to ask myself, "who am I writing this for, anyway?"

Re: Chris Hanson's Show VS Loroi Visitors On Earth...

And now I wanna see a fanfic with Chris Hanson style show trapping a Loroi... hopefully one like Spiral with broken english that makes their panicking even more hillarious. Chris: "You came to have sex with an underage boy?" Thickwood: She blushes blue. "I shorry. Okai? I go now." Chris: "You may g...

Thank you for the welcome!

I'm treading carefully because I'm new. I don't want to step on any toes here. As far as things clawing at my brain, I have a lot of... um... stuff clawing at my braincase. Some of it may even get out. We shall see. But right now, this one is knocking the loudest.

Re: Chris Hanson's Show VS Loroi Visitors On Earth...

But if that's not enough to advocate the point, consider the independent art piece "Valentine's Day 2013: Lanzei," where a certain Listel is planting an obvious smacker upon the smooches of one E.A. Jardin, her eyes sealed in a dazed, pleasant state. And very lacking in body armor. So if that's not...
