Might convince him to finally pack up and leave Brockton.

Don't. You'll miss it if you do.
After all, it only happens once a millennium, and is a sight of unimaginable beauty. And it happens in exactly...*checks watch*... 5 seconds ago....Oops... I'm sorry, were you paying attention to me instead of it? We did tell you you'd miss it.
With the mention of Peter's grandfather, and his uncle "taking over the family business," my first thought was "Is he Iron Rain's son?" Whether she's alive or not, or if Peter's just being groomed as a better heir than Theo.
Emma watched the Principal dial the number for the police. This can't be happening. This doesn't happen to me.
"Okay, everyone, let's get back outside," Peter ordered, and they readily obeyed him. "Leave the Principal to do her job." He was moving slower than most, as Taylor was still leaning on his arm, but Emma was slower still, given that she was unwilling to go anywhere that the musclebound senior girl wanted to take her.
Sophia was hustled outside by the two Empire Eighty-Eight boys that Peter had detailed to hold her, and then Peter and Taylor left. Emma found herself in the office with the senior and Blackwell.
"Principal Blackwell!" Her voice was urgent. "Please, listen to me! My father -"
" - is not here," Blackwell told her coldly. "Get out of my office." She took her hand from the mouthpiece and spoke clearly. "Yes, this is Principal Blackwell at Winslow High. I'd like to report an assault on a student by two other students. The names of the perpetrators are Emma Barnes and Sophia Hess … "
Fucking finally!!!!!
For once, justice is served!
Never really liked Sophia anyway.
Way too bitchy.
He saw through it, but he still fell for it in part.Nice to see Danny saw through Taylor's little softening attempt. Not so nice to see her being drawn into the E88's circle, but you wouldn't have this story without.
She already beat up Emma once. (She's also done that in NSW).Please send her after Emma instead of Taylor. We rarely see that.
Well, she never quite did that in canon, even though the knowledge that the villain who totally OWNED her was also the wimpy victim who she enjoyed putting down made her kick in the TV set and throw a spectacular tantrum.Or better yet, she makes elaborate plans and revenge fantasies but never escapes to use them. She stews in resentment until she finally snaps and shanks someone in juvie, earning herself an adult prison sentence where the same song and dance happens until she earns a lifelong sentence through her own actions in prison and they just birdcage her to make it easier on everyone.
You know, when Taylor mentioned she had a plan, this was number 3 on my list. Peter's reaction, priceless.Peter opened his mouth, not quite sure what to say. I grabbed his hand and squeezed. "Dad, they're just protecting me because Peter asked them to. He's my boyfriend, and … I think I might be pregnant."
Absolute, stunned silence. Dad's face turned slowly red. Peter, just as slowly, swivelled his head to stare at me, his eyes and mouth opening in a classic oh shit, did you just say what I think you just said expression.
"You … little … slimy … bastard." I always knew that Dad had a temper, but he'd managed to keep it reined in. Mostly. Now he was letting it out again. "I'm going to break your fucking neck."
"But you managed it," he pointed out. "Although almost giving both of us heart attacks in the process."
Sophia, Sophia, Sophia... You know you've fucked up when you need binoculars to see the light at the exit of the hole you've dug yourself into.Mindful of those in the cells around her, Sophia came to her feet with athletic ease. She stalked toward Emma, placing each foot carefully. "No-one does that to me, Emma," she stated threateningly. "So unless you want me to show you why not, start talking."
Emma ignored her, hunched away again. Sophia yanked her around again. Emma tried to shove her once more, but Sophia was ready this time, and clipped her on the jaw. Grabbing Emma by the front of her top, she hauled the redhead to her feet and slammed a knee into her stomach; Emma doubled over, retching.
Wow, if only she'd figured that out while being arrested... or in the holding cells...She would not lash out. Lashing out would be a very, very bad idea.
Oh good. My "only regret" from last chapter has been addressed.As I slid the phone back into my pocket, Kelly pulled his own phone out. "Wanna see something cool?"
"What's that?" I asked.
He grinned and played the film clip. I watched as Sophia was handcuffed, with little in the way of gentleness. Then she was searched, and I winced in sympathy. Then her hands were shifted to the front, and she was let make a phone call. And then … "Holy shit," I muttered.
Kelly nodded. "Isn't it classic? And all we had to do was stand there and watch."
I nodded, running the footage back slightly. Was it so very wrong that I revelled in the sight of Sophia Hess being tasered? Because it felt so very right.
You... You... Damn you... You actually made me like Piggot in this fic... At least I know she's sure to fuck it up and make me hate her again before the fics done though...I hope...Piggot seemed to discern her meaning. "Ms Hess, I was going to go somewhat easier on you. Until you chose to assault a police officer. And until I read the list of crimes that Emma Barnes has been assigning to you. Pending proof of those, I have no choice but to decide exactly how big the book is that I'll be throwing at you." She made a tired gesture. "Get her out of here."
I... What... Why... Why must the feels come with such a sense of foreboding...As I started on my lunch, I smiled. I had accepted the Empire Eighty-Eight; they had accepted me. I was one of them, now.
It felt good.
It felt right.
Well, she never quite did that in canon, even though the knowledge that the villain who totally OWNED her was also the wimpy victim who she enjoyed putting down made her kick in the TV set and throw a spectacular tantrum.
Because you know that she's not going to wise up any time soon.You know, when Taylor mentioned she had a plan, this was number 3 on my list. Peter's reaction, priceless.Sophia, Sophia, Sophia... You know you've fucked up when you need binoculars to see the light at the exit of the hole you've dug yourself into.Wow, if only she'd figured that out while being arrested... or in the holding cells...Oh good.

That I'm capable of separating my feeling of right and wrong from what I write?Ack, my man, you are FAR too good at writing this fic... and I'm not sure what that says about you as a person.
Should be reasonable easy. The list just gives a little background (or simple explanation) on terms used in the story. Some of which should be self-explanatory anyway.*edit- Oh and Ack, outta curiosity before I get around to reading it, that new War Games fic. How easy will it be to follow what's going on if I have never even heard of the book series you're crossing with? Because that list of terms looks rather....long...
So, the finishing touch should be Kaiser doing a press conference and promising to 'make the streets safe from the Wards'.True but in canon she wasn't so completely fucked over and betrayed by pretty much everyone as well as getting screwed over personally by E88.
Slippery Slope!Sophia is hitting heights of rage that canon never really saw.
I thought she only tried to murder Taylor once, when the Undersiders trapped her.Yes but that was just disposing of an inconvenience, no actual rage was involved at that point.
A sociopathic writing style?That I'm capable of separating my feeling of right and wrong from what I write?
No, that's I, Panacea.
Well shit. Peter is Iron Rain's son.
Because anything that makes Taylor less of a Nazi is something you want to see regardless of how likely it is?Also, why do I see a Taylor/Theo friendship happening in the near future?
