Anyone suggested RNGesus as Taylor's cape name yet?

Way too obscure and revealing, all at the same time.
Danny might, but he'd probably go with something like Dungeon Master. (Because Dungeon Masters always know what's coming ahead of time, even if they have to fudge the rolls). I'd say Game Master, but he stopped gaming before DM started giving way to GM.That's why it's perfect!
But I don't think it's something Taylor would come up with, she doesn't seem to be much of an gamer to curse the RNG gods.
... basically, yes. But specifically working with people, toward a particular goal.Is... is thatQueen Administrator manifesting as a Thinker power not unlike Accords?
Figured it was something like that. I wonder if that's how Accords power works and the reason to why he tends to be a bit... volatile.... basically, yes. But specifically working with people, toward a particular goal.
She gets an insight into their motivations and thus how to get them to work the way she wants them to. Also, their strengths and weaknesses, and how to integrate them into a team to carry out said particular goal. But they have to want to cooperate toward that goal.
If there's a goal in sight but people are working at cross purposes, and she knows she can fix it, but she isn't, then that's when the headache starts.
Nah, he's just OCD.Figured it was something like that. I wonder if that's how Accords power works and the reason to why he tends to be a bit... volatile.
I'm now picturing this Taylor and this Dinah working together as Accord's chief lieutenants in BB. No problem is safe!Nah, he's just OCD.
Read his interlude; he sees a problem (and a 'problem' could just be something being asymmetric, or messy, or incomplete) and his power starts in on a plan to fix it, sometimes against his will. His extreme OCD may be a reaction from his brain to avoid having to have these solutions keep popping up in his brain every thirty seconds.
QA!Dinah just gets headaches when something is being improperly organised.
though if it happens enough, she might feel like killing someone
Nothing else has changed; the Undersiders formed around about June/July 2010, so they're already together. (date in this fic is now mid January).... Well, 'terrifyingly overpowered Thinker power' is what Dinah had before, so this fits. Interesting way of doing it. Will her cape-name be Administrator?
I wonder if Lisa's power is any different (and if she's still using that name). We haven't seen anything about her in either chapter so far, but it seems that the switch here was the point of divergence, so she's probably still with the same power, name, and team.
I'd assumed it was a flashback and she'd just had her power longer in this universe. I was thinking fifth grade for the crafts project, earlier for the parents.Just by the way, I consulted a friend of mine regarding Dinah's dialogue with her parents; she has teenage daughters. Hopefully, it sounds more realistic and mature now.
An inherited set at that.Annette, huh? Not sure what I feel about them touching another persons dice, they'll make them unlucky.
Yes, it is.Oh, nice chapter. That's Andrea's daughter, I guess - wonder how that will come out. Probably when Anette's mom meets Danny. Romance in the air?
Good Show for Piggot too, loved her tasering Sophia, and the gaming geeks were spot on.
Taylor's not superstitious. She can make her own luck.Annette, huh? Not sure what I feel about them touching another persons dice, they'll make them unlucky.
Ya think?
Yup.It's nice to see you using an internal canon, makes the stories more interesting.
Taylor might not be, but the other gamers in the group probably would be, or at least be used to dealing with people who are.
