I eagerly await future chapters! This story is good!

Heh. Honestly, spilling the beans on that little secret would do wonders for a lot of people.

Damn, you really know how to write an anxiety attack...
Are you okay?

Ok, Max might survive. In one piece is even less of a chance.

Max Anders has officially signed his own death warrant.

Yeah, for all everyone in the world likes to spout about the black and white, eveil and good, there's almost no such thing. It's just shades of grey...

Whew. Four chapters of chaos thus far. Very interesting alt-power as well.

It's gonna be one interesting ride.

That smelled like a Simurgh plot

No, seriously, what the fuck, MM?

What the fuck, MM?

A ward? Sure. A hero? Only by court order. Guess she can't know that last..

I would love to see this continue

Empathize, Kaiser... Empathize. Somewhere, Taylor's inner grammarian is screeching.

Boo. Just killed him off after he making him clinically depressed.

This story was a delight, and it didn't go nearly as far into 'E88 might not be all bad' as The Slippery Slope did. That story went too far, imo. This didn't really.

One thing I'll comment on is that this version of Taylor feels really, really young. When it described Taylor hugging Purity and how Taylor was taller than Purity, it felt weird, just because of how young she feels in this story. I pictured something along the lines of a twelve year old child when reading this, not a fifteen/sixteen year old teenager. Definitely Vista sized.

Taylor's healing ability here feels like it should have been even more emphasized. They made it a big deal, but it should have been an even bigger deal, I feel. In lore, there aren't really any 'healing' shards. Healing, if its there, is always a byproduct of something else. All the shards are geared towards violence and destruction, not healing.

But yea, great ride. :)
