Let the poor man win for once. Let him have a extremely hot scientist for a date. Double points if they are both weirdos.
Edit:
Triple points if the date has fire powers.
 
Say Bitterman how easy would it be to get Ellie or John Henry some guns and training?

Or to add a holdout energy blaster or firearm to E-B armor?

Or and here is the big one ... Make more E-B armors?
I'm gonna say comic rules, so no guns unless it's the character's whole thing.

E-B's paper module has a energy blaster.

And no, E-B is the masterwork of a singular genius. You can't make any more of them. No one else knows how.
 
I had another power combo thought, but this is much, much more flaky than Clairvoyance + Senses.

We have three mobility based tags at this point: Flight, Teleportation and Enhanced Speed. What if those could combine?

I imagine the only way that we get more EXCEED-BEYOND or R-Train level tech is by making another Algernon.

And then that runs into the problem that we don't want to make another Algernon.

.... is it bad that since technically I have 2 candidates I contemplated having one of them take the Algernon/Apiary packages?
 
Im my defence I want one of them to have my astral chain plan, maybe get rid of the construxt creation all together? Im more centered in getting a unleashed look. As for the other kid... ngl having one be all mechanical and the other all biological tickles my fancy. Maybe taking some inspiration from the final boss. Algernon on the other hand is to make a weapon/armor maker for the team, again Im interested in making a (not) X baton. Or maybe a RWBY inspired shift weapon.
 
I'm trying not to be regretful about opportunity cost. I love Maddie, Opale, and Wolong.

But goddamn if I don't wish we had Silvio on OUR side right now.

Counterargument: we can't have had Stupid US Red EXCEED vs our Extremely Cool Blue/Gold EXCEED if we had recruited Silvio. Remember:
Look, if you don't think the most hype shit in media is when red guy fights blue guy, I can't help you.
 
And as an aside to that previous comment I just made: I think that for EXCEED-BEYOND, blue+gold with a green scarf is my preferred color scheme. If we use white we're overlapping with Crusade, and if we use black we're overlapping with Mona and Maddie.

Edit: Specifically dark blue, btw. Not sky blue.
 
"Zixuan, whatever 'Project Prometheus' is, it has them running scared. If they can't get information on it soon, then it's possible they'll resort to force and justify it later. Justice Unlimited is the only organization standing in their way of domination Horizon."
*domination of Horizon.
You suspected as much, but having it confirmed was another thing. "Anything else, I should know?"
Shouldn't be a comma in that dialogue.
"This only ends one way. Whether it's you, that samurai dame, or Miss Dark-and-Broody over there, the Ghost Dragon Traid's days are numbered. And I don't want to be left holding the bag when the butcher's bill comes due."
*Triad's
"Ellie, do not venture into The Frozen Throne to try to find a cure!" your shout.
*you shout
She pauses as waits for you to speak. For all the—!
*as she waits
She is, however, the absolute worst liar I have ever encountered. It's as if she finds the idea of subtly personally offensive.
*subtlety
Thanks for the update!

Random shower thought: where do we rate the odds that Seraph is actually Valkyrie under another name? Notably similar known powersets, the would-be city-destroyer teaming up with the Sus Squad doesn't seem implausible, and IIRC that light show she was projecting during her appearance just so happened to make it impossible for anyone to see her face.

I think Valkyrie would be able to deal with the Chorus. She's super-powerful after all.

Plus Valkyrie seems to hate Jacob's Ladder which doesn't fit with what we know of Crusade.
 
My big fear about the PR fight at the interview is that Chatelet's card could be reversed.

Chatelet opens up about Gwen's abuse, stares the Crusade group down, and then White Hawk pull out his screen and has a recording of Ete apologizing for how she treated her (probably at gunpoint). White Hawk goes "I understand you not wanting to be with her, but she has mended her ways, you don't need to let your friendship with Towarri and your younger cousin shackle you to them".
 
Hi

After Kermie told me to read this, staying up far past my bedtime last night, and only now after a few bursts of only reading this-

I am done! Just in under 24 hours... though I had to skip all of the conversations and fun side stuff, It was a very fun read though! I... I think... It w..as-
 
One at start or two at mid.

Oh, and you can empower both John Henry and Ellie at this next action.
Oh sorry, you can double up Spoon too because of this new character. You'll see in the update.
Oh my, this new character is definitely going to be a major help! I had thought that we'd have to choose between doing one new power in the middle of a turn or two at the end, but one at the start versus to in the middle is much better! And being able to target two people for Spoonful of Sugar at once also sounds rather nice.

Would we similarly be able to target two people at once for Fast Pass if we developed that tech? Or would that be something we'd need to actually develop Fast Pass in the first place in order to know the answer to that question?

…I think I may have accidentally given bro a new hyperfixation. Sorry🤷

Welcome to Project Prometheus though! If you have any questions for Wolong, now's the time.

Both good points, there's definitely good reasons to suppose otherwise as well. Though in the interests of playing devil's advocate I'll note that given no other known psychic has ever been found to have Valkyrie-tier power, demonstrating you have Valkyrie-tier psychic power would make an attempt to pass yourself off as someone else... problematic. So if Seraph is Valkyrie wearing Groucho Marx glasses then sandbagging on the extent of her psychic powers would be borderline mandatory, at least up to and until it's time for her to completely blindside their enemies.

The Jacob's Ladder thing is harder to account for - best I can do there is to note that since no one actually knows why Valkyrie was so set on destroying it, we also have no idea whether or what something would be viable for buying her off from it. Given how absurdly well-connected and well-resourced the Symbol Crew seems, it's plausible that if there's something it's possible to offer her in exchange for her cooperation they'd be able to offer it.

White Hawk goes "I understand you not wanting to be with her, but she has mended her ways, you don't need to let your friendship with Towarri and your younger cousin shackle you to them".
In terms of PR, an apology is an admission of guilt. Coupled with the fact they'd be telling an abuse victim when they need to let their abuse go, while standing on the side of their abuser, and I don't see that angle working out well for them at all if they attempted it.

Oh um- Did Rhys ever live out his fursona fantasy as a dragon?

context:
Rhys holds up his hands in wonder and looks at the rest of his body. Then he falls backwards in despair and says, "Awwwww, I wanted to be a dragon!"

"Are you quite alright? Menagerie Witch is hyperventilating."

"Oh shit! I'm fine, Maddie! I'm fine! Just a fursona unfulfilled, sorry Gus . . . Anyway! How freaky do I look?"
It's just been stuck in my mind ya know?

Regarding Seraph, don't forget that Nora did pioneer psytech. It's even specified in the latest update that she developed something that would let Ronin better handle her Chorus. While we admittedly might not be able to find some sort of psy-blocker, we can certainly look for one.

If we need a justification, we could just say that since Crusade has yet to demonstrate any proof that Nora wound up causing the whole mess, we don't trust a psychic who's very much on their side to have access to our minds to try and find something they could twist against us.

Plus, Valkyrie has been in Wonderland for years, and hasn't broken out until now. Seraph, presumably, has an overlapping with imprisonment time in Horae Guard.

You could only do one fast pass per turn.

It wasn't his fantasy! It was his boyfriend's and he wanted to make him happy.

Welcome to the madhouse TrueRealmWalk!
Be prepared for awesomeness, pain and lots and lots of debates.
