If Victoria is being completely serious here... what?? How?
If she's making up stuff that sounds good... sounds about right for Victoria.
I'll admit, as a punchline to what seems like a completely uninteresting Dallon household interlude, this is pretty good.
Hey! It's canon Piggot! Gosh, I never thought I'd see you 'round these parts. ('These parts' being the fandom as a whole)
Ammy: using her ridiculous divine abilities... to troll people who are trying to figure out what the heck is going on.
Sounds about right.
I dunno. This feels off. I mean, if the ABB has re-named itself to Union -which I don't find completely implausible- this holds up linguistically and as something Lung would say in complete seriousness, but I'm getting the vibe this is him saying "Okay guys, you're unionizing like I promised the goddamned stupid friggin' miko." and I can't quite reconcile that.
----------
Honestly, feels like either an empty chapter or a slow chapter. I'm hoping it's the latter, but having a bit of trouble seeing it being such.
Oh well.

Ammy likes sitting there, Piggot's still trying to figure out how she keeps getting in.

Well, he is ever so slightly drunk in that scene, so I think he can be forgiven for not being quite on the public speaking ball?

Chekov: I am a cat. Your forcefield (and argument) is invalid.
Lung is currently drunk as a skunk. That's probably what he meant to say but his brain is pretty pickled at the moment.

Lung is currently drunk, as indicated by him being unable to walk in a straight line, and by his vigorous YES! when Taylor mentioned sake in the former chapter(s).
Damn it, double Imp'd.

I'm a little sad that this story keeps getting sillier. It feels like the comedy grew out of control and ate the rest of the things that made the story great, like the interesting dynamic between Danny and Taylor.

Mhm, I can see where you're coming from, though I personally don't mind the extra bits of silliness, given that this is an Okami crossover... it's par for the course, after all
That said, do remember the other part of the crossover is Worm. Sooner or later, an Endbringer *will* make its appearance I reckon, and as powerful as Amaterasu is or might become, I don't think she can stand up to an Endbringer just yet, not if they start fighting seriously. Tragedy might very well be on the horizon, especially since the Endbringers love to cause conflict. And given that Brockton Bay is currently *resolving* all of its conflict? Well, they're probably gonna think "We'll have to fix that".
That, or the Shithouse Nine will make their appearance.

Throw into that the talk that Danny and Taylor have had coming for a long, long time? We're going to get...not gritty, but emotional in the not-to-distant-future, I reckon. This is the calm before the storm.

Personally, I find that this story was intended as comedy from the start, though not crack. And it feels to me as if it does that very well indeed.
The only events that can be said to be unrealistic is that of Sunny/Ammy screwing with probability, and Sunny does what Sunny does. After all, the 4th wall is a mere illusion that she keeps up for shits and giggles.

Ok, so if the ABB name has been changed into The Union, as this mistake would likely result in, what would the new symbol for their group be? Also, I would presume that everyone is in agreement that the new name for the group is a superior one to the "Azn Bad Boys".

It's fine, but recent chapters have been all laugh and no feels. The combination is what drew me in. The comedy made the feels more poignant and the feels made the comedy more vibrant. I'm really missing that.

I've stockpiled tissues for that talk.
And because it will not get out of my head . . .
"And you are now UNION."
The gangsters silence reigned supreme at the ABB's leader's proud rebranding. Only the chirping of crickets could be heard.
Oni Lee tapped Cricket on the shoulder. "The E88 rally is two blocks over," the kamikaze assassin directed.
"Oh, sorry about that," the Empire cape's vocalizer buzzed. "I'll be on my way."
As the she walked away, a white dog-shaped shadow vanished around a corner.

Easy- if your power gives you no feedback, and you have no direct control over it, you would have no way to know that you have powers. Keep in mind that 'people who can trigger' is a relatively small category- which means that a noteworthy number of people most likely undergo triggerworthy events, but can't trigger.
Just do what I do- forget that rating buttons that aren't 'hug' exist, for a bit.

That's about right.
Glad to see this update again, I can already tell that cat is going places.
After all, wasn't there a godly cat in the game?

Thank you, I echo a lot of people me in this, I needed this. It brightened my day—I found out as I was doing a reread of the whole fic, actually: Lo, a new chapter.
Warm and Fuzzy Feelings all over the place, and I thumped out of my chair from the last line, my laughter coming out in squeaks for lack of breath. I literally ROFL'd.
I'm going to assume that Victora is a shipper, and be glad of it; and however much I dislike her and Amy, I'm so so glad to see her portrayed this way, it's very in character. And for Amy to be getting better.
Incidentally the scans, I was expecting a glowing ball of plasma to show up there.
But man the final bit. This is going to change how Lung is viewed big time. Consider, from an outside perspective he went across the US trying to find a place with immigrants (big cities) where he could fit into the power structure and not be booted out. Once there he started assimlating various Asian gangs and forcing them to be one group and killing the capes that would not obey him. And Lung's commands? Stability. He found a place where he could not be forced out, he would not want that changed. He fought white nationalists and Merchants. And when the white nationalists were basically defeated? He reinvented his pan asian gang into Union, which is a non denominational word. It's what America calls itself after all. And as per Taylor's 'suggestions' he's going to be offering services and such.
He was a gangster and he got manipulated and forced into being a Shogun, basically. It's what he wanted but so far and above any dream he bothered to have, even though it was within his grasp. He didn't even think he could manage this, have this, and here he is.
Why do I suspect that the next time he transforms his scales will be more than a little yellow?

I am dissapointed in the lack of one-on-one time with Carol and Chekov. Like, I need that uninterrupted baby-talk scene, you know?
I was really hoping to see Carol realizing that she just adopted a cat and having no idea how to take care of one, followed by frantic Googling. No one has ever really written Carol in such an adorable situation other than WildWorm.
KITTEH OF DELICIOUS FORESHADOWING!!! This little rascal is going to save the day!
Chekov has much to learn. Licking Mark's ear would have been far more effective!
"
Heh, Carol wanted to comfort the poor baby that must have been so scared to be in that dark drawer all alone.
I see that Chessman has educated himself on the definition of "Hot Springs episode". However, for him, the dreaded "Festival Episode" will be far more terrifying. That's usually when the main couple...kisses!
Oni Lee does not strike me as a big meat eater no matter how cat-like his behavior has become recently. And he's too soft-spoken to be a sexual predator.

She has a forcefield, so something getting inside her barrier and hurting her then is a feasibly way to harm her.
