Ugh, why is it so hard to write nazi hate speeches? It's really delaying the chapter I'm working on.

A shame you don't have Supcom or similar tech tree in your list, would have solved this problem in a snap😈
Sadly haven't played it. Probably should get around to it at some point though.
Warhammer 40k? would also love to see addy show up to an Endbringers battle with an emperor class Titan
Unfortunately that runs into all the build time issues the other big stuff does, which is a pity because giant death mechs are awesome.
Maybe addie could create giant ships like the infinity from halo by not building the ship but either creating a relay point so her shard can deploy it directly or by giving the schematics to simmy and getting her to build it and deliver it as stealthy as possible...
I think giving schematics to Simmy might not be a good idea. She's sneaksy and tricksy after all.
Ah, right. I'd forgotten that the term now commonly means having 1 head, 1 body, 2 arms and 2 legs. I'm still going by the actual definition of "resembling a human" that excludes anyone/thing with features a human doesn't have, i.e.: Wings, a tail, tentacles, lekku, etc..
Ah right, fair enough.
If I can make a suggestion for new tech trees?

I propose:
Tekken
Street Fighter
Guilty Gear
And
Blazblue

They ALL have some pretty crazy tech Addy can make and use.
I might look into them. I'm adding new tech trees onto the list fairly regularly.
@Unders if she'd made them into TattleBugs or tattlecrabs instead would that give Taylor a decent thinker rating or even precog rating ? A tank full of thinker sevens all connected to her senses of bugs in a few city blocks . Especially with her multitasking, could she link multiple tattle beings together to have some kinda thing like the Misaka Network in To Aru ? Or is she in not able to understand the interpret such info from bugs ?
They don't have Lisa's power. They have some of Lisa's DNA, but not enough for Negotiator to think they're Lisa. They may or may not develop coronas connected to Negotiator and even if they do they'd still need to trigger normally.
 
The Rise of Kettle.
Right! Have a non-canon omake because I'm having trouble writing nazi hate speeches and wanted something nice and funny to work on instead.


Now that my friends knew I could make things that give powers I could start bringing them in on my plans to save the world. If Cauldron can do it I can obviously do it better, since I am a genius and not an idiot.

Still, if my friends future co-conspirators and I were going to compete with Cauldron their shadowy conspiracy then we'll need to step up our game. I already have powers in a bottle, so that was at least one thing I could tick off the list.

One quick internet search later and I had a mail order diploma on the way. This would grant me me just as much scientific legitimacy as Doctor Mother had, so that part was covered. Maybe more in fact, since I doubted she even bothered getting a diploma. She probably just told people she was doctor and nobody bothered to argue with her because they're morons.

Next up was the location for my base. Something far trickier to compete with since they had interdimensional portals and at the moment I don't. I'll have to grab Bioshock again and make myself a Lutece device. That'll solve my lack of interdimensional options. Plus I could also use it to pop over to Aleph and pick up the latest anime for Black Girl. That'll totally ensure her loyalty.

In fact I could probably make my own pseudo-Doormaker if I can convince one of my friends eventual co-conspirators to let the portal cut off a finger or a toe or something like Elizabeth in the game.

For now though I guess we can use my bedroom. I can disguise conspiracy meetings as sleepovers, providing another layer of cover for my operations plus sleepovers are fun too.

As a test I nailed a thick blanket on the ceiling to cover the light, which worked perfectly and gave the whole place a nice, shadowy feel. I'll just have to bring a long table in here and get a bunch of screens to provide illumination.

Okay, so that's Doctorhood, interdimensional travel, powers in a bottle and shadowy conspiracy room sorted. What else do I need? Oh yeah, I'll need a high powered precog to help me keep everything secret.

Hey Simmy? Wanna play conspiracy with me? I need an OP precog for my team.

{Affirmation. Excitement}

Awesome, thanks. You'll be a great help.

{:D}

Okay that's the OP precog recruited. No idea how she figured out how to send emoji's or who even taught her that but whatever.

Now I just need a bunch of horribly mutated and generally insane failed human experiments. I guess I could go around visiting the homeless population and/or Merchants and offer some cash in exchange for being experimented on. I know how to make MELD, so grafting stuff to them will be easy.

Ooh! I can perform experiments to see how long it takes for ADAM side effects to kick in after being exposed to massive doses of the stuff. Hmm, I'll need a control group too of course. I must retain my edge of Doctor Mother by actually using scientific rigour.

Actually, it would be better to have a control group, a low ADAM dosage group and a high ADAM dosage group. That way I can also compare low and high dosages and see if that makes a difference.

Right. It'll take a bit of time to do, but I'm sure by the end of the month my shadowy conspiracy will be ready to start conspiracy ising and competing with Cauldron. Now we just need a name. What's the opposite of Cauldron?

A brief check of Aunt Rose's huge thesaurus revealed there aren't any antonyms for the word cauldron, which ruined that part of my plan. I guess I'll use a synonym instead, even if that's far more boring. Checking the thesaurus again I settled on one that would work. Plus I can use it for some fun puns if Cauldron ever find us.

We shall be called Kettle!

The only kettle I know is the wheeze of a Vtuber....

Fun omake though. Maybe expand on this one the next time you have trouble? Like, timeskips that give brief explanations of events only with quirky dialogue.
 
The key to writing Kaiser is that he is not a racist but a power-hungry classist. In his head he rants about the poor and just occasonally replaces it with racist slurs.
 
She'll also need her own triumvirate so she should bring in her sister after all Skitter killed Alexandria and that's basically the same thing
If she does get luttece particles she might be able to grab khepri before contessa gets her that'll really show up cauldron

When you realize they call Warrior Scion when in actuality he called himself Zion (ציון), I bet you they're going to mishear that as "Keter" and try to figure out what meaning the name has and come upon some obscure thing that has "Keter" as a danger rating for "Unable to be contained".

Have you read Gantz?
Much of their technology is incredibly convenient and easy to use.
It also has a simple and effective way to revive without side effects.

Gantz revive is basically a Star Trek Transporter in function.

I think a nazi hate speech is something most people would be ok with being told rather than shown. There's only so much racism I can read before my eyes just start skipping ahead.
 
There's lots of options. So far i'm leaning towards mutated crustaceans. Or starfish. A human sized starfish crawling out the bay to hunt people could be fun. That and possibly sea slugs in the bay being mutated enough to produce ADAM as well just to keep the whole mess self sustaining. That could be interesting.

Both of those are terrifying. Like I'm pretty sure the city would empty out or they'd call in the National guard.

Like it's kind of scary to think how much an ecosystem like that could spread.

Heh. Maybe the Endbringer won't be here for Noelle. Maybe it's here to stop the Adam nonsense.

Call back to simpler times. Identify issue effecting city, blame minority group. Repeat.
 
Kaiser: I found you at least Splycer or I must say Magpie?

Addy :It's "Doctor" Magpie. I didn't pay the Ph.D. mail order for fun, thank you very much! (It cost a lot of money too, thank you by the way!) . Thanks for the fix

I might add more. I'd prefer to work on actual scenes for the story though rather than little non-canon omakes.

This is from Addy's POV, so unless she bothers trying to use telepathy on him we won't hear how he's just playing up being a Nazi.
She'll also need her own triumvirate so she should bring in her sister after all Skitter killed Alexandria and that's basically the same thing

Taylor and Lisa would be on the Kettle list. Lisa could be the Number Man expy since she's the ex-villain of the group and also a thinker.
There was going to be a magic 8 ball in the place of Contessa, but then i figured adding simmy would be funnier and more within Addy's line of thinking.

I've read it, but it was a loooong time ago. I'll throw it on the reread list and then toss it on the tech tree list afterwards. There was some interesting shit in there.
Addy's next tech tree also has a variety of ways to bring back the dead, so I'm pretty set on resurrection methods.
When you realize they call Warrior Scion when in actuality he called himself Zion (ציון), I bet you they're going to mishear that as "Keter" and try to figure out what meaning the name has and come upon some obscure thing that has "Keter" as a danger rating for "Unable to be contained".
If/when I continue the Kettle omakes I might do that. It'd be too funny not to.
I think a nazi hate speech is something most people would be ok with being told rather than shown. There's only so much racism I can read before my eyes just start skipping ahead.
You likely can just put "Blah Blah Blah racist hate speech blah blah blah" assuming our main character is listening to it.
I wanted to show some of the end of the speech but it was honestly becoming annoying to try shift myself into the mindset needed for such absolute stupidity that I eventually went with the tell not show option. Instead Addy will focus on more important things than listening to Kaiser be an asshole.
could you add the tech tree from First Contact? Its a very HFY story but the tech gets really out there.
I've added it to my to read list, so it might wind up on the tech tree list at some point.
True, but remember that it was adapted for mass production with the technology of the time for humans.
Unless restricted by Reality Lents, everything should be possible from mass production.
It's restricted, or at least black boxed. Only Best Host is allowed to make the fun toys.
If Addy gets the Gundam tech she can make a perpetual energy reactor... That may just be Ziz's goal the cycle would be unnecessary with that.
Simmy's goals at the moment aren't the whole perpetual energy beat entropy thing. Her goals are to get free and some other stuff.
Both of those are terrifying. Like I'm pretty sure the city would empty out or they'd call in the National guard.

Like it's kind of scary to think how much an ecosystem like that could spread.
Well it may take a while to properly establish itself. It may be interesting if very rare natural disasters like a tidal wave could cause the city to become partially flooded.
Heh. Maybe the Endbringer won't be here for Noelle. Maybe it's here to stop the Adam nonsense.
Yeah that's because Leviathan is a jerk and always messing with Simmy's plots/toys.
Also I should probably point out that Accord wants the Travellers out of his immaculately-groomed hair and Coil owes Accord a lot of favours at the moment.
 
Will there be a 'pure tech' tech tree soon? As in just tech and no magic/powers stuff?

Also, Destiny should have a great tree for a good companion and respawn option.
 
This is from Addy's POV, so unless she bothers trying to use telepathy on him we won't hear how he's just playing up being a Nazi.
Addy sabotaging Kaiser with telepathy sounds FUN! :D

That and possibly sea slugs in the bay being mutated enough to produce ADAM as well just to keep the whole mess self sustaining. That could be interesting.
Skaven VS Deep Ones : Battle for Brockton Bay!
 
I kinda want to see an omake or interlude where reality lens gets into a best host debate with queen administrator and negotiator like there a bunch of nerds arguing over there waifus.
 
"Ice? Aww, stupid other-me. Couldn't you dream of darkness powers or something."
For reals come on other Addy! Ice? Where's the Anima expy?
Now that my friends knew I could make things that give powers I could start bringing them in on my plans to save the world.
Please be careful here. One of the biggest things that can ruin a story for me is to be handing out powers and the ability to make powers to lots of other people. I've seen several magical girl Taylor fics get worse because Taylor turned a bunch of others into magical girls. It's not quite the same here and Addy will keep her unique power since she can't share Reality Lens but keep it in mind. It can be done well but more often I see it distract the story, make it lose focus with too many protags, sideplots and other problems.
How'd you keep the smiley as text and not turn into the green emoji? Sidestory was fun. Simmy as OP precog on Addy's "team" is amusing.
