She was big enough - and more importantly strong enough - to literally bounce a Krogan in a fist fight.
Heh. This character sounds rather endearing already...
Has she invented the sport of Kroganball yet? It's like basketball, but heavier, and the "ball" tends to fight back.
The Spectre only cared that the Turian was effective, and being ex-Cabal made her very effective indeed, not only as a biotic, but also as one hell of a gifted markswoman.
I somehow quoted this in reverse order... ignore that bit.
Anyway, I see that you're setting up what are probably going to be some main characters and taking the best of the best while you're at it...
a Turian Rear-Echelon Matron Fucker royally fucked
Well, that should be a surprise to no one.
I wonder if that term really has the same connotations here, though, given Asari... well, you know what Asari do.
Just know that we'd be doing the Hierarchy a favor if he somehow slipped and suffered a fatal fall down an elevator shaft and onto several kilos of pressure-sensitive high explosives.
That seems mildly unsafe, right there.
I think you should have more than several kilos.
by Athame's eternally perky tits
The euphemisms are always fun. Will Athame be recovered at some point (like Javik) just so she can see what the Asari have done to her name?
Absentmindedly, a part of Tela kind of hoped that Faegan wasn't going to get that young Turian in trouble. Or worse, leave him heartbroken. The maiden could get excitable when it came to rare and hard-to-obtain guns, to put it mildly.
He's screwed. Possibly literally. I feel bad for him, though, because he apparently keeps ending up in proximity to things that will be bad for his career. Aside from the muscular Asari distraction, apparently they were torturing prisoners on his new transfer...
"It is! Goddess, I've been wanting to get my hands on one of these for years," chirped the gigantic Asari.
Aaaannnd she's a collector of impractical weaponry. Please stop this, I should not be this attracted to a fictional character.
Naturally, Tela threw her head back and cackled, which was when they finally reached the entrance of the prison ship's cell block.
I love the dynamics of these characters.
It was then that Tela realized that she was more pissed than she thought. Despite being a different species, the bruised and bloodied face looking up at her didn't look all that different from a face that she used to see in the mirror when she was just a few decades old.
Oh hell.
Hello, traumatized Tela. This is going to end in exploding idiots, isn't it...
...They're totally going to bond. 4th member of the party GET!
"... Fuck it," Tela found herself saying, and in a single smooth motion she drew her pistol one last time, took aim, and squeezed the trigger. The officer's eye burst in a blue spray and the back of his head exploded, showering the floor behind him with gore as he collapsed to the floor one final time.
Okay, that's perhaps a bit questionable, but fortunately she's a specter and while the guy didn't (possibly) deserve it...
Hell, Faegan once accidentally broke someone's hip during a one-night stand. The maiden was many things but gentle was not one of them.
Wow. I've heard that expression used before, but never in the literal sense.
"Ecks… Exec... Slayer Benyamin Somtaaw, already reported to all Kiith-sa and One-Who-Speaks-For-Sajuuk. Sajuuk - He Whose Hand Shapes What Is, come, very soon now."
Uh oh. I think it might be a bit late to surrender now...
There were hundreds of ships as big as dreadnoughts or bigger disgorging from those fields.
I wonder if Licinius has finally realized that he walked pencil first into an organ sharpener yet? Surely he can't be that dense, or still in command... right?
(Also, I propose that we just call him "Pencilward" for future reference, because his name is hard to spell and this one's funnier anyway.
)
"Sajuuk has come," she heard Kanya reverently whisper at her side.
Fuck fuck
fuckity...
Oh, wonderful. They DO still have it. 😅
I'm not sure if it even matters whether they've reverse-engineered it or not in the time since it was discovered. That ship just laughs at anything else.
I wonder if the Council races will end up surrendering to the Hiigarans. Also, given the showing they've made... I think the rest of the council might just work a bit harder to integrate and suck up to them, given just how much worse the battle was, how much more it was the Turians' fault, and how outmatched they are. That
might end up butterflying... was it Mindoir? Of course, the Hiigarans are also probably living on their ships like the Quarians - will they even want another world?
(Suddenly, I hope the Batarians
do try something. "
This is our third f**king planet. Which of you miserable bastards wants to screw THIS one up for us?!")
"That is Kharos," Kanya said in the same soft tone. "Named for the lost world. Kharos shelters the children of Hiigara, as it did when its builders first carried the children across galaxies to Hiigara."
Did they just bring their entire population to a battle?
Time for me to go back to work on my other stories
I will hunt you down and put salt in your sugar bowl. Do not test me.
"Hi, yes. Our leader is an idiot. We'd like to surrender please."
Do they even
have any other options?
Taiidan mothership, the mega toaster.
Excuse me the what?!
I was looking at some footage, and the graphics/models aren't the clearest, but... that seems more unusual than I was expecting.
...I want Faegan to step on me.
That's an odd co--
Faegan death by snu snu cackles
This is a worrying trend...
Faegan is my new favorite character. Amazonian super-booby gun fan? That amuses me far more than it should.
Houston, this forum apparently has a type.
trekking through the semi-radioactive wilderness of a death world in search of childhood adventure with shotguns.
I have this sudden mental image of them hunting Thresher Maws for sport... and handily winning.
No realization that allowing a Hiigaran mining operation to actually be given the Time to harvest a quarter of a moon for raw resources is the worst possible thing to do.
I know this isn't how it works, but it would be hilarious if, like those animations of how virii work, the moon just explodes into ships after a while. In practice, their build rate isn't
that far off though.
Just noticed a typo, maybe two.
How many people did we have looking at this, and there's still a typo?!
Argh...!
