    Jesus Christ. The very fact you're here swinging away at the little bit of dust left from this dead horse's decomposed corpse makes clear how much of a lie this is. You even know it's bullshit because you admit as much here. In the end there's no satisfying your type, there's always something...

    Oh c'mon now predominate representation doesn't necessarily mean control of an industry.... /s

    Thanks for letting me read it. Exactly as described. What a disappointment. But thanks for letting me see it nonetheless. EDIT: Wait, is the thread still accessible for you somehow? I was completely unable to access it when I tried.

    Wait, what? Umm anyone have a link to that for haw-haws? In addition to that are there omakes from this story? I must confess I've completely forgotten to look, I've been so entranced by the story itself. EDIT: just checked. Only three omakes. :(

    Cecylene holds up wooden sign: Nothing to see here, I'm a cute li'l panda desert, that's all.

    Why are you so convinced this will be the case? Sure, some regulation is good--necessary even!--but a lot of it is set up so a whole nest of parasites can collect rent as part of a process which wets their beaks as the building goes up. While human nature certainly sucks, these are places...

    Yes, well...what makes you all think Aisha is done with him? I suspect this is just her getting started...

    I assume without hunting down the author's original comments that he would have done something with Aegis' infinite adaptability to have his shard evolve him enough to be able to either communicate or take him over the way that Taylor requested the polarities be flipped between herself and her...

    Yes, and if you stop reading Dune after the invasion by the Harkonens, Dune is the story of how evil wins by suborning Imperial Conditioning. If you quit reading Stranger in a Strange Land after Jubal's property is invaded by Special Service Troops you'd believe that the story is how...

    Just when I thought I couldn't love this fic any more than I already do, you go and do something awesome like this....

    At the risk of being tarred as a nazi for understanding the nazi mindset I think I can explain having seen a different version of this used before. The setup is the claim that there is no civilization without white people. That modern civilization lies on the back of white men. Think 'White...

    If that's what that was I have to admit it completely flew over my head. And I'm afraid to ask for clarification at this point because I really don't want to know and can maintain my denial by not asking.

    I want to agree with this but then I recall how much has happened in story since then. The Taylor Hebert of that point in the story's timeline wouldn't give up Rachael for Hookwolf's soul price, sure. The real question though is would the Taylor of all the events which have happened since then...

    Other than what it says on the face of it, I am not aware of this literary reference. Could I get a link to the reference? Thanks.

    I am aware. However except for Rune--once!--no one seems to have tripped over the name. It's a bit unusual. I mean sure, the PHO account helps get the name correct a little bit but not everyone on Earth Bet is on PHO or a cape geek. It would seem to me to be much more likely to see more of...
