Overlady: Attack of the Minions (Thread II)

Reader mode
Will read and review properly in the morning, but Cattleya wasn't the only thing that needed a lot in orde to be resurrected, eh?
In any case, great to have this back.
 
Hm, Brexit, Anglo-Dutch Wars, 100 Years War, Boris Johnson to name the obvious references. Definitely worth the wait.

Also, Albigone is way better than Brexit.
 
Quite a lot to unpack in this update given the timeskip. Generally I gotta say that I'm feeling rather entertained by the recent events. Also Catt is just not going to give up on Maria is she? Guess that answers the question of how much she cares for her harem members, cus if forgiving someone for trying to sacrifice their friends to a dark goddess isn't love then I don't know what is. Plus Louise being great with her little relative is quite adorable. Not sure yet how I feel about everything that happens with Lee beyond the intell that prompts Louise to move on Albion, as that's something I think I'll save for later thinking.

Also as much as it shames me to admit it, I'm actually curious about the next heroic interlude. Stopping that marriage seems like it might just be an interesting tale.
 
Albigone slayed my sides.

Big oof on Catt moving out, too bad Louise forgot about that emotional honesty from the last arc.

Hmm, reviving Wales is probably the first chance Louise will get to raise a Henrietta flag. The True Love could continue to lock Louise out of the running, but on the other hand Henrietta has been twisting that into Extremely Concerning Yandere Love for a while now while Wales has presumably been in stasis.

The relationship with Lee seems to be stuck in a rut, despite dating for 6 arcs in the background they're both incredibly superficial with each other and the atmosphere is still half-awkward first date half-diplomatic meeting.
 
It's taken you two whole years to work Brexit into the plot line?

Shame!

Well, that would probably still be the case if only one of them was a Tsundere. But they both are. Progress happens on a geological scale.
 
By all that is wretched and unholy, it lives! Woe upon us! Woe upon us all!

...I think I did that right. But yay, it lives! Also, Albigone. I laughed. Living demonic Pacman too was also great.

Louise sniffled. "I don't know how to handle this! How do you handle someone who acts nice half the time and nasty the rest of the time? Who'd do this to someone else?"

Oh god. They're both block-headed tsunderes.

Henrietta cleared her throat, playing with the bracelet of rat skulls around her right hand. "They want to attach giant chains to Albion and pull it north away from the continent using dragons. It's part of a great project they call 'Albigone'."

"But... why?"

"No one is entirely sure, to be honest. Cearl said that no one could really explain it to him either. Advocates would just shout 'Sovereignty!' and 'Freedom!' and talk about how everyone would be better off when they could export freely to the rest of the world."

"What rest of the world? The elves? The mysterious lands across the Great Western Ocean? The... the bears in the Northern Ice?"

"I don't know either. When pressed too hard, he said they'd just call the person a 'Staytor'."

"Maybe it's the Iron Lady again, looking to get more corpse-slaves. I never did hear what happened to her. Hard to get the latest information when you're stuck in a cage."

I'm personally still pulling for the Louise-Henrietta ship.

Though the scenes with the Lee were well done.

Fav scene was the Louise visiting her cousin and nephew though. Just so casually donestic.
 
Latest update is amazing. Love this story. I guess I am adding an Overlady reread to my to-be-read pile...

Echoing everyone else that the Britain jokes were amazing.

I'm not yet convinced that the pairing is threatened by Louise's thing with Lee, though I am rather concerned with Henrietta seeming to get worse.

As a side note, I'm beginning to grow quite suspect of Lee. I am not sure if I'm seeing meaning where there is none or simply something other than I suspect, but I am fairly sure that Lee is not what he seems. It's more of a feeling really, but I suspect that Lee is a Von Zerbst and/or cross-dressing. Also even if he isn't either, that bit of emotional revelation kinda makes me want to ship him with Danny. Would probably go better than pairing Tabitha up with Lee, especially given that we now know that even Louise scares him.
 
... Brexit is just going to be a goldmine of material for you, isn't it? Looking forward to the results.
 
So, Lee. There's two of him, right? One who gets along well with Louise on their dates and one who doesn't. One who brags about his martial exploits and one who has people who do the fighting for him.
