    So here I am once again, just trying to flush out a plot bunny from it's place in my limited creativity. Will it survive the wilds of the internet or die in infancy?


    Rejoice, for very bad things are about to happen.


    ----------------------------------------

    Taylor stood atop the Brockton Bay Historical Museum. Looking out over the bay as she pondered her next move. The Vulfenguard were prowling the marketplace, ears poised and snouts sniffing as they hunted for infiltrators. The Lamplighters were pushing deeper into ABB territory, roaring flamethrowers and crackling Lightning generators incinerating the corrupted monsters who'd once been honest dock-workers and residents of Brockton Bay, now forever lost to the Other. The shattered remnants of the Empire eighty-eight scrabbling at the edge's of Reclamation Project's territory. Desperately trying to inflict enough damage to drive the industrial juggernaut back, never realizing that it put them on the list of "To-Be-Conquered".


    Clockwork robots wandered the streets, steadily repairing infrastructure and rebuilding homes in the aftermath of the fighting. Swiftly inhabited by old citizens and newcomers alike, the reborn Brockton Bay was steadily growing, soon to be the shining jewel of the east coast that it was Meant To Be. Rather than the crumbling ruin it had been doomed to decay into.


    Taylor sighed as she thought of the past, of friends gone and foes gutted.


    A lot can happen in ten years.

    Basically it's Taylor with Klaus Von Wulfenbach's Spark.

    I'll try to put out a longer bit in a day or two,

    • I have to say, I am looking forward to more, even from such a short start you've definitely gotten my attention.

    I don't think sparks work like that. It just reffers to a person not an actual thing. I mean, when people reffer to a strong spark or a weak spark it more of a measure of talent, not personality or things they are limted to build, what they build is limited by their knowledge, resources and hobbies.

    ..so Taylor gets a power from the man who has committed 'The Evil Overlord's List' to memory, to say nothing of adding a few chapters?

    YES.

    P.S. Pleeease tell we we will have Jaegers?
     
    their is truly not enough to say anything for now. I don't specially look forward to it, but, I will check later on.

    Why not "Worm Genius"? Or was that taken?

    There are a couple of problems with this, one is that 'Girl Genius' applies just as much to Taylor as it does to Agatha, (making the subsitution of 'worm for 'girl' pointless). another is that it sounds like a Genius the Transgression Cross.

    And the third is that the title of Worm refers not to Taylor (although it would at first seem to merely refer to her powers) but The Entities. so one would expect 'Worm Genius' to be about an Entity who became a Spark, an admittedly terrifying concept.

    Besides, simply merging the titles of your crossover settings is lazy title design. The current title is fine.
