Project Prometheus (Original Setting Superhero Quest)

Reader mode
Honestly I'm not sure the Illuminatis are taking JU lightly or actually seriously.

Since it seems none of them really think JU is a big problem worth their aces.

The Interlocutor looks up.

The games with the not-mes have been amusing as of late, but even it can grow weary of repetition. Novelty and an answer to its question are what it truly seeks.

But, now, this is curious.

The creature touches its chest with a hand connected to a much too-long arm.

"What is it we feel now?" it asks out loud, "Such warmth. Such joy. What a curious feeling to have. The not-mes never cease to surprise me."

It continues its search. In Horizon for certain, but where is she? Ah well, today has been worthwhile for this alone, at least. It enjoys its "good mood".

"Pride in someone else. How very unique a sensation."

BTW i;m pretty sure this is the Interlocator feeling what Nora is feeling about ellie using Dynamite.

Huh is that part of why SB used her Nuke which gives us a chance to kill her?

Pretty much. The biggest issue for her is . . .

. . . Doc Silver stopped her from touching Yara. Now she doesn't have a clone and she's been forced to use her ace in the hole.

To be honest, I think Lady Leizi would have a habit of monologuing if she wasn't a squishy human.

She's more a "I did it 35 minutes ago" kinda gal.
 
There is an extremely funny pinch plan idea I had where Handyman turns into SB and tries to gaslight the original into thinking she's an Admirer her herself she made as a tribute to her own vanity. It probably wouldn't have worked

You know what I;ll take losing symbiote and 1Ap Reality check as fair price to kill SB. That means we should be able to inform the public about the clones without much panic if shes dead.

Or Am I wrong and public learning about SB even if shes dead would still cause Mega chaos?

That was going to be Ronin before the salt made me edit the chapter to reveal her allegiance early lol

Kek fair but honestly not knowing about ronin made it difficult to make a proper decicion. Granted I still would have chosen not to fight and I like the fact we got both DS and VG online thanks to critting on YQ negotiation.

Let's see how things shake out. There's a lot of moving parts you won't see until next update.

If the current vote wins, a lot of my plans are going to hell (in a good way).
 
I mean, I wouldn't put it past the Mysteries to just be able to fucking revive her, though she'd probably lose her arsenal built up over who-knows-how-long doing so, which immediately reduces her threat level to something reasonable instead of "The only reason I haven't won is because I'm too dumb and self-centered to try"
 
I think even if SB escapes via some incredibly bullshit method, her days are numbered. Her presence being revealed by JU and Crusade would instantly mean that she'd be hunted down like a rabid animal. McLeod-English would instantly fall under high suspicion.

Hell, the Mysteries might kill her themselves if they figure out that in her megalomania she started ranting and raving about Speaker and Hand.

There is only one person in this world right now who actually cares about SB and her fate will turn on if that person gets involved.

I imagine that particular trio has the "stupidly motivated" modifier, lol.

Justicar is going to be pissed beyond belief about her power being used this way. Probably to kill a bunch of innocents in the past too.

HA goes without mention.

And RH gets to help in the confrontation she never got to have while alive.

End result: SB's day is going to get worse
 
[X] Plan: Cruel Angel's Thesis
-[X] Justicar
-[X] The Red Huntress
-[X] Heavenly Astrologian

I will admit a large part of the narrative appeal for this to me it actually Justiciar. Because while I don't know if she will get to talk her psychic ghost being involved opens all sort of fun with Stockpile. Best case scenario she gives him her version of the "You Can Be More" speech and advances his arc. Worst she might be able to call Ellie out on being mean to her protégée and advance her a bit.

Congratulations Valiants! Both of you can have your dead loved ones judge you from this!
 
Not being able to make personal Connection is Ellie main social flaw which Nora didnt have. Though really having flaws as a person is normal and atleast interesting chars if also frustrating.

Really I;m more interested if Justicar being summoned lets Silvio learn about the Stage and what happens with that. Probably still think Nora is insane for tapping the Universal Collectiveness and summoning the ghost of Metas, but really as far as we can tell the danger to connecting to the stage is on the person doing the Connection.

With how Valkyrie and Nora got fucked by tapping to it .The Stage is an Example of Energy Field bigger than anyones Head.
