![]() ![]() ![]() I like to reread this story ever so often. It’s so good! |
![]() ![]() SEQUAL! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Coming through for a second read, right after finishing the first. I know you finished this 9 years ago, but I just found it and it's brilliant! You did such a wonderful job of capturing the characters (perfect!) and how they would interact (fabulous!). And later, the Stark Industries scientists named after the Dr. Who actors! I was dying! Dying I tell you! I was laughing so hard I almost couldn't breathe. Actually, there were a number of places where that happened. At any rate, thank you for writing this and sharing it! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Honestly? Earth is in imminent danger. They just found this wonder-ship, with a weapon which MIGHT be useful against the Ori. They can be in Earth orbit in minutes (Aurora class cross space between galaxies in a handful of hours - this one should be even faster), then you make them go to a rendezvous point and wait more than an hour, for a few Ha'tak ships, that will only slow them down, and have no weapon to even make the Ori notice? |
![]() ![]() ![]() This has been a wild ride and a privilege to read, thank you! |
![]() ![]() ![]() This chapter feels like Harry Potter just broke the statute of secrecy lol. Loved Everhart's expose and the scientists! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Best opening meeting act! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Darth Marrs recommended this story and two chapters in, I am totally hooked and I get itTwo of my fav fandoms together at last, and so well writtenthe plotlines are already coming together and I love it! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Ok, I need to point out that a transport would not be designated as BC. The BC in BC304 means Battlecruiser. Going by Air Force nomenclature B designates a bomber (B-17, B-52, B-1 etc) A designates an Attack aircraft such as the A-10, Fighters with an F and transports with a C. |
![]() ![]() ![]() BC-305 is the battleship design. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Awesome story |
![]() ![]() ![]() Tried to read it, but ended up kind of boring |
![]() ![]() ![]() It looks like I read this originally four years ago. It remains a good story. Thanks for writing it. Still, ultimately it is largely all about building up to this final epic battle. When everyone's back against the wall and the survival of the planet is no longer abstract, well everyone can come together. Another story might be the story after, when the evil of certain politicians and world leaders runs amuck, when many words are crafted not for the good of the world, but to manipulate the many for the good of the few. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Character count may be a concern for this story. On a side note, while it makes perfect sense for Tony to buy satellite internet from every company that provides it, it does not make sense that he would skip land lines. The land lines are much faster and have much lower latency. Satellite/cellular/etc would be more of an emergency fail-over type thing. |
![]() ![]() ![]() I'm ending up skimming a fair amount, but at any rate, one clarification you may want to make is treason is essentially a crime that you have to try exceptionally hard to commit by the legal definition in the US. From a web site, "In other words, the Constitution requires both concrete action and an intent to betray the nation before a citizen can be convicted of treason; expressing traitorous thoughts or intentions alone does not suffice." Basically Daniel is in no way committing treason. That is not to say that he is safe from potential jail time, but its not Treason. Even if you went by the more conventional definition, Daniel would not be guilty of treason. One could argue that certain politicians are guilty of betraying the core principles of democracy, and thus could be considered guilty of the common meaning, but that is not the legal standard. |
