Holy crap, there was a lot going on in this chapter. I'm still in shock over the revelation of who (or perhaps, *what* might be a better term?) Dr. Shimmer reports to. Wow...
And also, excellent work in fleshing out Mal in these flashbacks and other scenes. I just keep getting more invested.
Ah, it's good to see more of Knight and Sunset. And what a cliffhanger we have here! Spike and Twilight...
Mal became a bit of a project in this world. It was clear he couldn't be a typical mustache twirling villain. He was more of a victim of his environment and just rolled alot of crappy to hit checks in his life. The entire idea that someone inadvertently GOT immortality / longevity and wasn't interested in it was fun to mess with.
My Directorate is a bit of an homage to the Big MT in Fallout NV cobbled with the immoral ethics that were ramped in the old world. So it should be fun to explain that when the time comes!
It's going to be quite interesting to see what happens with Twilight and Spike now! Stay tuned!
9967751 Yeah, apologies for the delay on my end. Between my own laziness and a bunch of stories I've been catching up on, this one just got kinda lost in the shuffle.
Well, as I said previously, I like the way you've handled Mal in this story. So I'm definitely invested to see what happens to him next!
I definitely saw the parallels between the Big MT and the Directorate here. I'll definitely be on tenterhooks to find out what the ultimate nature of TIA, LUNA, CINCH and such are. They're not as obviously crazy as the Think Tank, which is both good and bad. Good because they're not just spinning ridiculous experiments for shits and giggles, and bad because they're all the more dangerous for that.
