...Well, that chapter was rather pants shittingly scary.

When one of the best case scenarios is that you've been infiltrated by a benign mind-controller, you're gonna have a bad day.

Thanks

While it probably won't be the case in this fic since Zoat cares little for Prime continuity, but there this is what Father Time really looks like-


He doesn't regenerate into new bodies, in Prime continuity he's a parasite. One hopes he climbs in through the mouth, because using other orifices would be even more disturbing.

So in Prime continuity SHADE is run by a lovecraftian horror that wears people like suits, moving on to the next victim when he gets the current one killed.

Admittedly not quite the worse case scenario, but nightmare inducing nonetheless.
 
I just love the idea that SHADE's spies have no idea that they're spies.

"So, uh. You know how I had to stay late nights filling out twice as much paperwork as everyone else in my department?
Turns out I was actually leaking classified reports to a rogue government agency."

They were hidden by a force far more terrifying than mere mindcontrol.
Bureaucracy.

"To be honest, Mister President, I'm not all that keen on continuing the quantum field experiments at all. We still have next to no idea what happens when people get exposed to it. We've no idea why they got the super powers that they did, no idea why they survived when all of the others appear not to have done. We don't even know much about how they do what they do. Frankly, the whole rig makes me feel like some sorta jungle tribesman playing with a nuke."

Well you're never going to learn if you don't study it. Sure, human trials seem to be a bit silly given the level of ignorance, but waiting around isn't going to decrease that ignorance.

I wonder what they are up to in the paragon world? probably laying low though I doubt they can watch the world move past them for too long without doing something spectacularly stupid

I'm not sure what actions either Paragon or Renegade have done that would cause them to behave differently. I'd assume, given our current lack of evidence, that they're basically identical in both timelines.

I don't think it would be a rogue agency if it was never authorized by the government in the first place.

We don't know that they were never authorized, just that the current President isn't aware of any authorization.

While viscerally more horrifying, it makes the thing much easier to kill. "Guy whose consciousness leaps to a random person whenever he dies" is harder to deal with than "Alien parasite that finds a new host when the current one dies."

He takes hold of a lever, pushes it down and pushes the door inwards slight, sticking his head around the door

Slightly

Also, for a relatively secure room, I'd expect the door to open outwards instead of in. Harder to open with brute force.

well the paragon is basically doing what they claim is their job for them. Namely increasing the spread of advanced technology and pushing for a government answer to metahumans. They are proably far enough up their own ass that they someone else trying to solve a problem they consider "theirs" might set them off.

Do you know what the easiest way to spot spies in the Middle East during the Cold War was? Look for any mild mannered civil servant who was completely knackered the whole time. They had to work their cover and their spy job.

Thank you, corrected.

Well, Paragon did a few minutes(?) of eyes everywhere which might have had an effect on them.

Question concerning Renegade Timeline Wallace. I know he's currently wearing Prime Earth Wally's Flash Rebirth costume, but he mentioned that Grayven made him a costume previously. What did that costume look like?

Like canon-Wallace's night camouflage costume, only more armoured and with yellow tron lines.
 
Ganurath said:
Sure.

Also, anyone else think that the supervillain work release means that Grayven paid for the DLC?

Wait, so Grayven becoming so much more powerful than Paragon in brute force isn't what everyone thinks it is. He just bought all the DLC weapon packs that immediately unlock when you get them and are completely overpowered for the beginning of the game! :p
