Sam is just going to have to get used to the SMSB. Taylor basically runs on the stuff, and as a member of Taylor's crew, she now runs on it too.
I'm also looking forward to her first encounter eith actual Tinkertech. It should be... interesting.
Hey, quick question- can Taylor get internet access? I mean, her comm systems should be able to handle it.
MSSB might be too much for Sam. It's one of those few magic systems that pats normal logic on the head and sends it to sit in the dunce corner while it starts making up its own rules and telling the universe how shit's gonna be.
She might burn the planet for the affront to proper technology that Tinkertech is.
She can, yes.
Oh hell yes! I've been waiting for this. Nice update but dear lord Taylor you are just not meant for cape combat. She could literally finger flick people to death as she is right now.
Yeah, I finally managed to get the chapter finished. We can resume shipping now!
She could indeed.
And so it was that Taylor found herself within the halls of Winslow High School once more.
...wait, you didn't say acceptable collateral damage. Never mind.
Good thing Taylor's not ticklish, otherwise it could get real awkward when her passengers lean on her walls or touch things and make her start laughing for no apparent reason.
Yeah, as much as she really wants to, she cannot accidentally Winslow. She goes to school there and was the only one left behind when school ended. There are at least three people who could point to her being the one who leveled Winslow, perhaps in a trigger event. That's why she went ham on all the lockers; now it looks like she got kidnapped from her locker by a hostile cape and managed to get away from them somewhere else.
Do not tempt me to make Taylor internally ticklish. Vala will abuse that to hell and back. And my resist might not be high enough to survive that particular will save.
What I can't wait for is when Taylor goes in for power testing and has to sandbag hard in order to stay under the radar.
If she goes in for power testing she has made the decision to reveal herself. She will not be holding back.
Well, beyond what she has to in order to ensure the atmosphere is intact afterwards.
Thanks! Welcome!
She could finger flick Alexandria, much less any other people.
And YAY! It's Back!
And so when Taylor finally chews Emma out over being a backstabbing little shit of a god fucking moron who shat on two generations of friendship, all for a rabid thug...
Well, Danny would be appalled and proud, right before he goes hunting for whomever in the DWU taught her such language.
Yes she could. And Alexandria's body is not tough enough to survive it. See the Siberian and her missing eye.
Leaning towards Emma being just a bitch, no powers, in this universe here (unlike Fourth). It fits a lot more with this particular Taylor.
He will have to hunt a lot because the person he's looking for is a certain thief on the inside of his own daughter.
I'm sure Jack would approve of her loadout.
She'll have to punt the EB's into orbit to use half of that and not detonate the atmosphere.
Probably a bit further than that if she wants to fire off a Mark X.
The other two are errors, but the muted is intentional.
Reason to be careful indeed. Also nice to see the crew reacting to a world where so much of their imagination is true. Too bad about all that firepower going to waste, but it can´t be helped right now.
Yeah, other than the fact SG-1 traipses through a wormhole to other planets daily and fights multiple alien races, the SGVerse is rather normal. Of course Superheroes are gonna rock their world!
No amount of firepower ever goes to waste. It just gives you a higher potential to overwhelm your enemies!
You missed a 'damn' in there.
Unless that was intentional, in which case Emma's got more connections than Taylor.
Tempting.....
It was meant to be that way. Was quoting my grandfather and his brothers, who loved calling people that. :lol
I'm quite sure the Ascended would be offended by that term for them. I highly approve of this.
I sure hope so. It's accurate. And every god in imagination knows the Ascended of the SGVerse deserve everything they can get.
I forgot the name of it.. But wasnt there one fic where jack died and properly passed on. No exploading cancer short cut to glow squids.
He came back any way to visit the kiddy pool, and was enjoying his vaction. Fishing, just kept getting funky glowing squids tho.
Dunno. I haven't managed to get through all the SG fics in existence.
There are a ludicrous number.
She'd need a sim card unless she's willing to break the security.
SIM cards are just fancy passwords. She can emulate one of the emergency services' card codes if she has to, no breaking in required.
Forget that.
Taylor would have to be multiple light-minutes 'above'/'below' the Sol system to throw around the likes of Mark VIIIs - Xs (wha?), without subjecting Earth Bet to (multiple) mother(s) of all EMPs and (potentially) throwing her world back into the pre-Industrial Age.
Whether Tinkertech would specifically possess innate degrees of EMP hardening is beyond my limited recollection of Worm canon or Wildbow's WoG(s).
Addendum - Some corrections:
'are'
Either 'now', or just omit the emphasized.
You are correct, especially with the Mark Xs. Those are from a SG fic I've read, can't remember the name, but they are something like fifty times as powerful as the Mark IX Gate Busters.
It is very likely Tinkertech is immune to EMP simply due to the fact that Shards are subbing in for a high number of their functions.
Yeah, I know, I have errors in my writing. Thing is, I finish a chapter and want to release it because I keep all of you waiting long enough already... but I release it with a couple of typos due to that. If I waited another few days I could probably get my typos down to 0.1%, but you lot would have to wait longer.
What's peep's opinion on that?
eh, i think muted is fine, just imagine Sam lying face down into a pillow or something.
Or covering her mouth with her hands. There's lots of ways.
Personally I had it in my head that she is screaming into the pillow on the medical bed.
This is a very unwise idea, any kind of tests that aren't internal or stationary have to be performed in space, since any mistakes would mean catastrophic collateral damage. Which I am sure she would not like to perform such test in her home city.
She already decided not to use any of her actual weapons in anything but Endbringer combat, ever, and so she won't be testing those at the Graveyard. This test run is mostly a strength/thruster calibration exercise.
The thought occurs to me that Ziz and Contessa are going to be having ALOT of headaches in the future.
Pretty sure that Sam at least is magically empowered with the concept of chaos (not the WH40K kind) and so the second she entered the universe, precog became worthlessly unreliable.
Then again, bringing Magic in would do the same thing. Shard precog is data driven. If the way the universe works abruptly changes even a tiny bit, all their data is practically worthless.
I mean...it involves SG-1.
Not exactly sure why the SGC didn't make Tylenol part of the standard kit for all the shennanigans they get up to.
My headcanon is that they carry Tylenol, Ibuprofen, and even Morphine.
Quite a lot of SG-1nanigans are Morphine worthy.
Pretty sure it already is actually. IIRC Jack gave Rya'c some when he got scarlet fever due to not having a symbiote in Rya'c's introductory episode.
Huh. Don't remember that. Must've missed it; I fall asleep on rewatches of that episode.
Taylor: alright i know that the ppc can clean if i set it to target painter, which is aperntly only a lazer pointer for aiming.... so lets set this dail one higher. *aims at ship wreck in bay*
Sam: *calcs in head* at 1% output the ppc has an impact force of about 949.768 gigajoules....
Taylor: *fires* and how much is that?
Boat: *stops existing*
Mushroom cloud: *starts existing*
Taylor: .....
Sam: about 227 tons of tnt.
Air raid sirens:
Cam: .... i think we should go.....
She isn't going to test any of her actual weapons at the Boat Graveyard.
But this is hilarious nonetheless.
She's gonna have to sandbag real hard to get away with only being known as the unholy fusion of Alexandria with Legend and a side of Eidolon.
Oddy!Taylor has the thought processes of an Air Force officer now. You know... the people who love showing off?
What is this 'sandbagging' concept you speak of? xD
Damn, now I want to see a three-way conversation between Oddyssey!Taylor, Fletcher!Taylor, and Relentless!Taylor discussing their experiences as shipgirls.
Easy one:
Oddy!Taylor: "So you fired white phosphorous at mind whammied kids."
Fletcher!Taylor: "Yeah."
Oddy!Taylor: "And you, Relentless, have antigravity engines and spaceflight capability, but still use wet navy ship hulls? On water?"
Relentless!Taylor: waffles about in FOG
Oddy!Taylor: "Uh huh. Okay. Nice chat. I'll uh... let's talk again when you two have your heads on straight."
What is Relentless!Taylor from? I recognize Fletcher Taylor, but I can't recall ever hearing about Relentless.
She's a FOG AI. I believe the fic name is Transposition?
That's from Transposition by Ensou. It's a crossover with Apreggio of Blue Steel. Their variation of shipgirls are a collective of hyper advanced alien machines bent on destroying humanity. They're known as The Fog.
Edit: It has its own unique fight scene of Taylor fighting a dragon....that isn't Lung or The-Cape-Known-As-Dragon.
Oh, I've been ninja'd. Oh well.
It's really nice to see this fic resurface. And if you haven't, you should definitely check out all fics by Ensou. They're good.
Eyyy, resurface, and it's a fic about ships. Nice.
Ensou's a great writer. I have a few issues with the FOG technology implementation limitations present with Relentless, but that seems to be a problem with most FOG fics. It's not reflective of Ensou specifically.
meanwhile I don't recognize Fletcher!Taylor...
Could I get a point in the right direction?
Fletcher!Taylor is from Grimderp: The KanCollening.
Yeah, that one.
Huh, haven't heard of these. More cool shipfics to read!
Is the other Shipgirl Taylor perhaps the one/two/five based off of Space Battleship Yamato?
