Power Games (Nanoha fanfic)

Reader mode
I wonder if Nanoha and Yuuno going to play correspondence Go or some other board game? We know Yuuno likes them from that one scene where he's playing with Chrono in Game Theory.

Though I doubt it would get mentioned in-story if they were. Just wondering because ES had a silly footnote about Nanoha teaching Precia Go (that footnote is not as silly now that Precia is dead :( ) and playing games through correspondence is one of the few things Nanoha and Yuuno are actually capable of doing together with this long-distance friendship thing, one side of which has to be heavily self-censored to prevent Yuuno squealing to the TSAB.

That would be adorable.

Alternatively, Nanoha and Yuuno (of course it was their doing, why are you looking at me like that, Fate?) invent Correspondence Explosive Fast Pretty Barrier Ball. Scrya Clan: "We never saw it coming." TSAB: "We have identified the perpetrators of this grave offense against innocent parcel carriers and are taking action to bring them to justice."

Pros: Yuuno joins the team.

Cons: There are no cons this is a good plan that will not result in any problems whatsoever.

Cue Chrono trying to analyse the secret message sent with this code.

"What do you mean, they're just playing Go? Impossible."

"Chrono, I told you you should stop watching those spy movies..."
 
Finished up Game Theory. Felt slightly less necro-y to use this thread.

Ending on Game Theory definitely threw me. I'd been reading Precia as a bad person with a bad plan, so when her plan worked perfectly and she got everything she wanted and it ends on that positive note for all that, it felt real off to me. I guess it could be unreliable narrator?

As I understand it, Precia in Game Theory is a bad person who had a bad plan, but had it together enough to divert into a better plan when she saw one.

Still a bad person.

The rest of the series was going to be a study of the consequences of that.
 
I'm more wondering if Aleph will do the next story at some point. And more importantly, if it's going to include the new Nanoha movies Reflection and Detonation. It'd be fun to see two particular mad scientists and their creations duking it out between each other.

I'm doubtful. Honestly, it's been five years, their stories update rarely enough as is, and they keep getting sidetracked by new projects. I would like to see it happen, but I don't think it's going to.

From Alephs profile on August 2018
"The Gamesverse is moving forward with Shell Games, which @EarthScorpion is writing - he's completed about a third to half of it thus far, and intends to finish the whole thing before posting it."

Well then, I look forward to actually seeing it when it comes out. Only hope Reflection/Detonation has some part in it. Considering when that was posted (Reflection/Detonation came out in 2017 and 2018 respectively), one only can.
