    Well at least we're immortal.

  2. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Is it just me, or is the cat getting stronger? Sure, SOME of it can be explained away as the Mug just not being willing to expose all her tricks, but she definitely couldn't do levitation earlier. Otherwise she wouldn't have been in the box.

  3. A Randomizer in the Forever War (SI-OC in THE FOREVER WINTER; multi x-over later)

    The lore apparently isn't in the wiki for some reason, but the early trailers explained that the Night Shift is the Scav term for malfunctioning construction and repair bots that are attempting to repair the infrastructure of Lost Angels even as the war above tears it to ribbons. They are...

  4. A Randomizer in the Forever War (SI-OC in THE FOREVER WINTER; multi x-over later)

    Question, given that the Godwave repairs all industry... would that not also restore the governing AI attached to said industry? Specifically, the Night Shift. The automated municipal repair system that has been tangling Lost Angel's for who knows how long into a nonsensical morass of pipe and...

  5. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    I for one do not expect he will ever escape the desk job. No, he's too competent and well liked. The poor bastard won't be allowed to retire for decades at least.

  6. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Let's just hope that the yards can handle a 20% mark down and still turn a profit. That's a huge discount.

  7. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    The Empire COULD have worked. If Palpatine didn't handpick the single worst, but loyal people he could possibly find, actively encourage all of their neuroses, infighting, and corruption, and then make sure the entire think would go up like a swimming pool of gasoline and Styrofoam if he ever...

  8. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Gonna put my vote down for Fervent Spark.

  9. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Yeah at this point defection is impossible. He'd get stomped. The absolute earliest he could get away with independence for his holdings is the chaos of post-Endor.

  10. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Mmm, Sombra, Tirek, Tempest. All dangerous, and should theoretically still exist for us to throw hands hooves with.

  11. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    My one thing to say on this. For all the hardship we endured, the path we took in life led us to Stormchaser. To Silky. Maybe our life would have been happier if not for that one choice. Maybe. But Maybe Not. [X] You will tell him that you forgive him. And deep down, you do not resent him.

  12. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Yeah, I say we just kill the thing. Shame we can't stack the deck here and just have to fight it. So many things we could do for a properly prepared battlefield.

  13. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Okay, so we are actually on the same page. The most generous interpretation possible is that Holdo is a blithering fucking idiot. Who should not have been trusted to rum an automatic speeder wash, let alone a fleet.

  14. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    And Holdo knew about this how? This is an edge case beyond all edge cases. The kind of thing nerds in research departments theorize about when they're bored. Not something a military officer, doubly so one from a barely funded PMC, would likely know of off hand. And then she also has to know...

  15. Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

    Hey. Rey wasn't THAT bad. Yes, she learned things that take Jedi years in a matter of days, yes that's kinda cringe.Yes, her coming up with a fix for the Falcon when Han couldn't is a bit unlikely, but she did have SOME tech experience and Han is by that point old and set in his ways. Yes, she...
