The poll is closing, and I'm going to start combing posts to try and answer the most pressing questions. Thanks for voting, it really helps.
That's on you dude, it's best not to force it.This whole debacle has quite frankly drained me of alot of enthusiasm for this, so I have no clear idea when I'll get to writing the next chapter.

The problem is that some people want Taylor to blow up angrily over this, and to have bad relations with the PRT after.I thought Piggot's reaction was fine. This type of tech would be wanted by every gang in the city and if word gets out about it, its defiantly something that would interest Manikin.
Armsmaster should have, at least she feels, told her the the situation the instant that he realized what he was dealing with.

Certain characters have a negative connotation no matter how you write them. People will bitch at you no matter what you do with them.Primarily, it's just frustration at myself and not other people that has me drained. I found it alright, and my betas approved. So the fact that it didn't quite fly as well because I didn't anticipate other peoples negative reaction to Piggot has me a bit down.
The point is she has no ground to stand on. Playing hardball doesn't work when you don't have anything your opposition actually needs.I thought she was written realistically tbh. She's the manager of a group of people that she doesn't like and just encountered a tinker with tech that has global ramifications. If she DIDN'T at least seize the fabricator i'd be upset that she takes her job so lax.

I think part of the problem is that Piggot being handed the idiot ball is a recurring plot point in Worm fics, and not one that is entirely justified by canon. I mean, I can't even count the number of fics I've read where the woman acts like an irrational, antagonistic presence, for no particular reason. She's frequently mis-characterized. So it's something I'm particularly sensitive to when I'm reading a story, because it usually acts as an indicator for how the story will go. How people will act. Etc.Primarily, it's just frustration at myself and not other people that has me drained. I found it alright, and my betas approved.

Little Rilley would probably enjoy it too. I mean, biological metal?"Little Jimmy" however would love it, and consider it the awesomest thing ever! And then bug his parents to the point they sigh, give up, then give in and buy it for him.
Either way, I've made some small changes to the chapter that should hopefully ease the worst of it without changing the content drastically.
Where were these changes if I may ask(hate rereading a chapter so soon)?
