With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

Mayby don't throw stones in your glass house mkay? Your the one who has argued, with no supporting evidence, that the imperials building their computers inside gothic architecture a) protects them from chaos scrapcode hacking attacks (this is completely unsupported in the text of any book I own and you have refused to provide any citations) and that b) this would also protect them from ring scans in the same way as DC magic does in this fic (which is complete nonsence).

Also both old and new 40k books can support high end or low end "feats" for the imperium because the setting is a massive multimedia empire at this point.

You obviously are very invested in 40k being able to beat DC/Zoat's SI but that just doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

 

chaoic -> chaotic, unless it's a technical term?

 

Mutants?

Also how do the various leaders sponsoring the expedition actually feel about him personally?

 

The flesh is weak Zoat

Andy chambers killed my Fimir

 

To be fair I would actually expect anyone wielding an orange power ring in 40k to be gobbled up by Slaanesh within a day. But then again I'd also expect someone wielding an orange power ring in DC to end up like Larfleeze, so I'd be willing to allow Zoat the same creative license that makes the character possible to begin with in 40k.

 

Comma to semicolon.

Exactly the reverse operation.

Vaguely surprised it's not "orkoid".

 

Thank you, corrected.

The people who know them appear to assume so. I suspect that they're actually female beastmen due to the fact that their animal trait bred true.

I don't know their characters well enough to accurately represent them.

Spoiler: It has its advantages

Thank you, corrected.

'Ork' is 40k.

 

Marienburg schooling is bad because it's a city of old money intrigue that has an unfortunate tendency to turn a blind eye to the worship of certain deities, and is more permissive of plausible deniability for worse deities than they ought to. Basically, imagine Deadly Class, but with cultists that have magic more overt than getting naked people to hold still for hours on end.

 

Not having seen the show, what should I be reading into that nakedness comment?

 

One of the higher ups forces people to be living furniture in her office. By her word, they hold still for hours on end through nothing but devotion to being furniture, but muscles don't hold perfectly still for so long.

 

The fact you're saying that is evidence that you don't know that 40k's canon policy is that everything is canon, but not everything is fully accurate.

Squats are canon. Their homeworld got eaten by Tyrannids, but some of them managed to survive; there was a bit in the 7e corebook stating that. Additionally, there's a squat model for Necromunda 2e.

I have read the relevant books - the AdMech is one of my favorite armies. Warp-tech is generally considered either archaeotech or tech heresy. There's stuff like force weapons, psyberfamiliars, psychic hoods, the Emperor's Tarot and the like that augment or interact with a user's own psychic powers, but that's not tech that interacts with the Warp directly - and they're really rare, which is why they're typically used by elite forces like Inquisitors or Space Marine Librarians.

 

Whereas is Warhammer Fantasy, everyone's headcanon is canon, and the published canon doesn't have to be canon if you don't want it to be canon.

End Times: Came pre-fucked!

 

Has the SI not explored the local solar system or recorded any and all incoming radio waves or whatever else may be broadcasting messages through space? If not, why not? Isn't he at all curious as to why this universe has an Orange Ring, the physical underpinnings to make it work, and someone maybe local who maybe had an interest to put him here and give him one?

 

the what times? no, no fantasy just when on hiatus there was no end times

 

Vaermina.

 

Ah yes. Ophelia from Dragon Commander. Truly a lovely and sweet natured girl. It's terribly difficult to avoid the Dwarf Princess, as I love me a busty red-head that wears glasses . . . But Ophelia is a fine waifu.

Especially once you find a way to restore her to flesh.

 

'a song and everything' not 'a song any thing'

 

Grayven is going to have a new name when this is over.

Windigo bait.

 

Well, looks like Grayven is getting his own "Pony team".

A pegasus Lighting Dust, a Unicorn, Sunset Shimmer and now an Earth pony...

Too bad he doesn't know about Maud Pie. She is the strongest Earth Pony ever.

 

Thank you, corrected.

 

Okay. Officially don't know what's going on or what anyone is talking about anymore. We've reached peak MLP so maybe I should just bow out until Zoat gets this out of his system.

 

Is Maud Pie going to feature in this or any other potential future episode about Equestria?

Wonder how she would get along with Raven if they ever meet?

 

A little sad there wasn't a WHF Paol update.

 

Grayven needs another Unicorn and Pegasus for the team. I suggest Trixie and Derpy or Lyra and Rain Drops (Luna-verse HOOOOO!!).

 

Google is your friend.

 

I don't think he'd change it, he's already established, and we don't know what Darkseid's reaction to losing the Anti-Life is going to be. He could take on a second name, or a surname? Not Lynne's though, "Grayven Weyland" sounds terrible. Maybe an Epithet like the Greek and Roman gods had in order to distinguish himself from Apokolips Grayven? For example, you have Zeus as the main god, but then you have his manifestations: for example Zeus Agoraeus, who's a protector of trade, Zeus Horkios, who guarantees oaths, or Zeus Olympios, who rules over the other gods.

 

Well, we know there is Saddle Arabia and Neighpon and both are implied to be outside Equestria.

And given Bat-ponies, Kirin etc. I think it's pretty clear that there are several cousin-species living in their own countries everywhere.

 

Given how much it knows about each and every one of us, it's either a good friend or a particularly persistent stalker. Or possibly both.

 

Ah, back to the Pony planet. Bring on the laughs!

Spoiler: Commentary spoilered for length

Ooof. Looks like there's a lot of training in their future.

Yeah, sometimes "What?" is the only question possible.

Pfft, who needs that poser? A complete rookie with Harmony.

No twitching eyebrow yet? Just wait, see if you can manage it.

Geez, you could bottle that sarcasm, it was so thick.

Well, that is a future possibility...

Wilson probably was, until Discord came along...

Ah, the proud mentor. The second-best side of Grayven. One guess what the best is.

Just have to show them how weak they are, first. Though some of them already know that...

"One pony? What?"

Ranbow Dash, she ain't.

Yes, embarrassing, isn't it? The cream of the crop of Equestria's largely non-existent military...

I really doubt they're much for actual fighting. Courageous, but not outstanding.

Admittedly, he was fifty meters tall or so at that point.

I just assumed all pegasi had some training in weather manipulation... Then again, that guard didn't have a clue...

Ah, guess what you'd be doing plenty of in the Wonderbolts...

"No, merely stating facts. If I were threatening you, you'd know it."

Hmm... Wonder if she will stick around...

Presumably well, or she wouldn't be here. I doubt she'd take a break until she fell asleep...

Oh, this could be fun... A pity it'll happen off-screen, but I'm sure Mr Zoat doesn't want to try and write a lecture on Equestrian Thaumatology.

Not outside of their natural strength, anyway.

I wonder if she was personally there or it was recent history for her...

...Jut how likely is that possibility?

Oooh, Trans-continental road-trip!

Assuming there is any learnable kind of Earth Pony Magic...

Once again, leaping into the unknown without any forethought. Third-best Grayven.

So, folks, on a scale of 'just fine' to 'oh god the sky is on fire!': How badly do you think this will go?
