    Quill is certainly implying Anna was killed by monsters, but was she? Sounds like Anna was witnessed deserting and executed for it. Fair enough, I suppose. With how hostile their environment is, it is necessarily fucking paramount that one be able to rely their allies and trust that their back...

    And so far Hiro hasn't done anything particularly wrong yet. Gun owners shouldn't learn firearm safety after they accidentally shoot someone, after all.

    Man, child geniuses and magical prodigies in the DC universe really suck, don't they? They have incredible natural capability and the casual arrogance of adolescence without any of the self-regulating habits that come from years of consequences and near-death experiences. With how... fluid...

    I'm building theory out of a single example here, but this may be the work of a white-hat (ha!) mind hacker, in the sense that the perp thinks they are doing a good deed in forcing people who wouldn't have otherwise gotten the genomorph implant to receive one. Based on the implanted compulsion...

    I have to imagine it's not terribly different from how non-magical people view him, to be honest. Paul is one of the most powerful Orange Lanterns in the universe, very likely in the top dozen non-Maltusian spectrum users altogether, and is not shy about who he is or what he's done. He has so...

    You know, when @Leecifer mentioned Dylan having serious golden retriever energy, I really didn't think much of it aside from it being a funny little bit of set dressing. But Holy Hank Hill on a Hamburger is it coming out in full force this chapter! (Should've known that was foreshadowing...

    Looks like we're seeing the personality bleed from the [Jobs] everyone got. Kyle's [Champion] seems to really want him to be the leader/dominant position and is influencing him to be way more insecure than he was before. Probably. What makes it worse is that Kyle doesn't seem to have...

    I love the sentiment of this. Just because the scope of your abilities is less than another's does not mean you suck, it just means the scope of your goals and expectations should be smaller. And if you find yourself growing stronger and more competent, that scope broadens to meet your greater...

    Lovely chapter! Paul's enthusiasm for a self-actualized Justice League finally admitting they run the show is delicious. Be careful Paul, if you keep poking him you're liable to make a hole and he'll start deflating. Oh no, too late!

    "And to my spiritual senses you stand out as a large orange snake--" "Of course." "but also as a man furiously trying to repair a machine that keeps trying to blow itself up." "I... hmm. I suppose that's not inaccurate."

    Are we sure this isn't Paul's uncle? There's something dryly English about this response to a couple becoming encased in an orange bubble while an angry bird-person superhero swoops down onto them. Or maybe having a sports-themed assassin as a brother and living in the DC universe in general...

    Wow. I've been following WTR for over a decade, and I don't think I've ever, ever seen Paul with so few fucks to give. I guess getting caught in the middle of a multi-civilizational blood feud culminating with one player trying to blow up a sun really tries one's patience. Hopefully he can wag...

    For everyone (like me) who is getting a bad case of brain whip-lash reading the dialogue, be aware that this universe was represented in a string of children's TV series and animated films. Janet isn't exactly acting unusually here, superhero self-awareness is a rare commodity in these parts. In...

    It's disconcerting how realistic this is. Corner shops/ bodegas/ convenience stores do tend to be early adopters of 'legal highs' before legislation bans them because of their terrible side effects. Or terrible unadvertised primary effects. They're often right next to the cheap flavored...

    Looks like this was the class-setting tutorial, and I can't say enough how pleased I am to read a litRPG where the system stuff is hidden. A story where the reader has to figure out the world and its rules with the characters is just far more intriguing than when everything is laid out plainly...
