    Just as a minor point, I'm not getting offended on behalf of anyone else. *I*, Tamoline, was uncomfortable with that joke, and it lessened *my* enjoyment of that section. That was my initial point. My only real point regarding other people was the subset of people that might be made...

    And that's great if you have that option. Seriously. Some of us don't, though. I identify primarily as geek. Pretty much all my friends are role-players. I travel to the other side of a different continent each year to go to a roleplaying convention, and I've met many good friends there who I...

    And this is why I said I'm not great at this kind of thing. And I'm probably not going to help anything, but here I go. The reason I wouldn't feel as uncomfortable if you were Chinese isn't because of your genes or where your ancestors come from. It's because if you were Chinese - if you...

    I did actually wonder that. :) Given your track record so far, I did wonder if that might be the reason you were comfortable using that slur. I think the answer is, kind of? I mean, personally, yes it does. It may even allow me to go back and read that part at some point without having my...

    Even joking racism is still racism. The fact that Zach said is almost kind of the problem - he's the jokester character who people laugh at, so we're supposed to at worst roll our eyes and dismiss him. It's certainly hard to imagine him suffering any consequences for it, let alone actually...

    I'm not going to lie, the racism made me a little uncomfortable.

    There are few whose majesty equals that of the Queen Administrator in her full glory." But this was Glaistig Uaine, everything we could puzzle through of her words proved she knew what she was talking about. The only reason you have not destroyed them is because you have not wished to."

    I wonder if there's any chance that Crow is actually a clone of Lisa. It would put a different light to her comments about mommy. And (given how her clone might view itself) might explain why she seems a little unhinged even for her, because tweaking GU like this is awfully... risky.
  9. Amelia, Worm AU [Complete]

    For my money, I don't think that Lisa is guilty... but I don't think she's innocent either. She deliberately pissed around with the team, putting additional stress on them, upping the risk to them, all for the purpose of making her position at Pantheon untenable. She *gambled* that the general...
  10. Amelia, Worm AU [Complete]

    Honestly, I don't think that anything Lisa's done is crippling, or deserving of death or mental tampering or whatever. But I do think she abused her position and the trust vested in her to get herself out of a place she volunteered for, and she made sure that Pantheon paid the - entirely...
  11. Amelia, Worm AU [Complete]

    Possibly not by direct action. But just getting to the point of conflict with the PRT/US would stress the loyalties of a lot of Pantheon's capes, quite possibly to the point of breaking, quite possibly to the point of destroying Pantheon. Sure Riley would stick with whatever Amelia decided to...

    As good a split as possible would have been Lisa saying, "You know guys, I just can't keep working here. Here's an orderly plan to select a successor - I suggest Dragon - and here's a reasonable timetable in which I can bring them up to speed before leaving." The fact that Lisa didn't think she...
  13. Amelia, Worm AU [Complete]

    Huh. Just realised something. In the two prominent pairbond cases - Amelia/Taylor and Minerva/Alexandria - after both formed/were forming, participants either broke away from existing allegiances to form their own powerbloc (Amelia, Lisa, Taylor) or were at least strongly tempted to (Alexandra)...
  14. Amelia, Worm AU [Complete]

    It would probably be the healthiest thing for her if that's what her plan was, but a) I'm fairly sure that doing the healthiest thing is against the laws of this particular universe and b) *she* certainly seemed to think that she had some deeper game going.
  15. Amelia, Worm AU [Complete]

    It's not that I can't see Lisa's need for some psychological distance between her and Pantheon leading her to come up any number of twisty and absolutely excellent and valid reasons why she needs to leave, but using her power on herself was supposed to cut down on her making those kind of loops...
