I never thought I would say this about a story...Could you please stop making chapter so large? It would be easier for everyone if you could try to keep them 10k or less a chapter.
Yay, new chapter! Time to rea- 33,000 words?! Jesus Christ, that's going to have to wait.
Who needs scientific names, anyway?
We will throw rocks at them.
That Doctor Reitman is a nasty bag of misanthrope, isn't she. I wanted to stuff her down a bottomless hole... what a sad, sad, pathetic person--and she's fictional. The truly sad thing is that there are people just like her in real life. Never understood the why of it at all...
Looking forward to the next one; hope yet remains. I wonder if there's a way to - I don't know - fix the totem proles, or at least end them kindly; those poor twisted things that used to be ponies...
Okay i got a question.....what happened Catty's dream chat with Lyra the Awsome and Xenolestia? Who is Weaver?
Liked that warframe reference discord made when explained why cloning clones was a bad idea.

But that will cause the authors having problems to plan the chapters. You know this fic is a collaboration of many authors right? So it will be big.
Awesome chapter. Loved those delicious references!
I wonder how things would have turned out if Ranma Saotome and his "friends" had been a part of this universe now too?
5461903 You'd have to go ask VoxAdam for that
Okay, the Gundanium, Adamantium, and Vibranium stuff is hilarious. I never knew he went to the world of Gundam Wing. (Gundanium, so far as I know, is unique to that reality. However there are a few variants that exist in other realities, such as Gundarium.) But the Hellsing Ultimate Abridged bit was just classic.
Yes, I'm a nerd. I regret nothing!
What I LOVED however, is the subtle take that to the mentality of Chatoyance's interpretation of how the Conversion Bureau concept works. I can't imagine how the how you could stand to have to even spout her crap in this fic, even knowing you were going to be punching holes in that bullshit big enough to drive a Super Star Destroyer through. Hats off to you, bud. That was some great work there.

The terrifying thing about it is that her comments are based on the viewpoints of a very real, and very infamous (and believe me, there's a reason for it) author who writes in this genre. I gotta give Redskin credit for being willing to even have to look at her BS so he could figure out how best to debunk it in-universe the way he did.
5462174 *looks at you all with stricken expression then casts upon himself, you, and Redskin*
Protection Against Alignment: Evil
Protection Against Alignment: Chaos
Protection Against Belief: Misanthropy
Circle of Harmony
The Princesses Blessing
Apple's Strength
Rarity's Grace
Twilight's Wisdom
Hopefully that should be enough.

Okay that was interesting. Never got a reply to a post based on d&d before.
At least I think that's what you're referencing, however ponied up it may be, there.
5462283 That is what I am referencing; hopefully it's enough protection from the likes of her...
5462289
Ha! You kidding? I blocked her a long while ago. Besides, the last time she invoked my name?
Let's just say that it didn't go well for her.
5462293 *reads thread...*
Chat is... quite the little drama queen, isn't she?
*keeps reading...*
"YOU INVOKED MY NAME..."
*laughs ass off!*
5461903
Who Weaver is will be revealed in due time. All I can say is that she is based on a (very) minor pony from the show... and that Sledge115 once described her as 'FemaleEvilPonyVox', for what that's worth.
5462174
I took it upon myself to venture into the heart of darkness and recapture Chatoyance's voice as Reitman, DoctorFluffy included the Dream-Lyra's angry response at the "spoiled children" line, KizunaTallis polished the phrases to give them more flow, and Redskin came up with Lyra's speech that humans helped her in her own darkest hour.
5462168 it was a motherfuckin pleasure to write, all of it :)
And there's stuff in here, stuff about Chatoyance that transcends the 4th wall, stuff I actually think... You can guess where it is =D
Hopefully whatever Catseyes or Reitman plans will begin to lose steam when Celestia makes a public appearance, hmm I Wonder how Icewind will react since he had this conspiracy theory going on, he probably say Celestia being mind controlled or something similar.
Man, we make some very long chapters...
Anyway, hooray for a new chapter!
Also... I found fixed errors, perhaps copy and paste the google doc again?
5462365 I could NOT let something that snide about "spoiled children" go unpunished.
5462438
... Even if we are pretty spoiled compared to the rest of the world (sigh).
5462444 It's true, we are. But Reitman doesn't have the right to say it, or use it as a justification for all the suffering she caused.
nice long chapter perfect for a night off for a 3rd shiftier now to walk the dog and sleep till noon
5462451
No, you're right, she doesn't. But concerning her rant about corporate culture, I did my share of research, and I'm afraid that the average corporation's behaviour is very similar to that of a sociopath.
5462456 I ain't gonna argue with you bout that. Sounds about right :)
5462468
Yes, the facts are there...
On the plus side, whose idea was it to cast Julianne Moore as Reitman (based on the as-yet unpublished "Cast & Crew" of Spectrum?) I'd like to congratulate that person for choosing not to take the petty route, but to instead select an attractive middle-aged actress for the role. Funnily enough, when I first read about Reitman in Case Files, I could sort of envision her as Moore, going by her physical description.
5462478 Wait, you could? Well, how about that.
...Kraber's casting really should not come as a surprise though.
5462490
Well, Moore is the quintessential red-headed Hollywood actress, and she's looking good even as she gets on in years.
33 thousand words...
Wheres that eye of he tiger video...
Lets do this
5461445
5462022
How about keep the chapters long but have dividers when the scenes change (or every 10 thousand or so words) with words that you can search for?
5462547
That's a good idea, we probably should do this.
5461445 I mean, you could at least divvy it up...
You know, given the scale of the threat, sacrificing an entire planet isn't really all that much.
5462702
Only two hundred humans to repopulate the human race? That's not counting the few survivors, if any left on Earth after being hit by an asteroid.
5462708 This is a threat to all of existence. A few billion humans from a single universe don't really matter that much in the big picture.
5462717
Still.
It's something that should be done as a last resort, say if they are about to lose.
Also, it's too much of a deus ex machina ending, thus kind of bad writing and would be a bad way to end this story. I know Mass Effect 3 did have a deus ex machina ending, but that still doesn't make it good.
5462702
They've rigged the Yellowstone with nuclear warheads set to detonate automatically once the Barrier reaches the American heartland, which, though it may not necessarily blow up the Earth, would certainly make the planet a barely-habitable wasteland for a very, very long time.
'Shakes fist angrily.' "Bloody misanthropes."
I don't see much point in arguing with idiots like Catseye. Even when Celestia comes back and tells her she is being an idiot, catseye will only accuse Celestia of being brain washed or some bullshit. Trying to persuade someone who's very position is immune from any and all forms of reason will only give Catseye the chance to fuck things up..
Oh, and that part with Marcus and Vinyl hit me right in the feels...
5462478 why thank you. That was my idea. Of ourse, they could always frump her up too lol.
This chapter was awesome. Discord paying a visit to Hellsing Ultimate Abridged was funny enough, (I laughed till I cried) but the reveal of Human!Elsa was also incredible. The raw emotions expressed by Marcus' friends when he reveals the truth was so full of feels, and I love the deconstruction of the PER's mentality and motivations during the talk with Luna. And lastly...MAUD IS HERE AND NOW CELESTIA'S BACK! WOOHOO! Keep it up, dude, I hope to see the next chapter soon. You're doing great.
5462334
Yes. Yes she is.
I take it you liked my response to her though?
I've had more than one verbal sparring match with her and every time, she does her damnedest to avoid the actual points and instead tries to deflect. Don't believe me? Go look up the comments section of Ten Minutes: Aftermath. You know, the middle finger she threw at readers of the original Ten Minutes, which had Celestia lose. Chatoyance got a lot of heat for writing the story without the permission of the original author.
5462365
Ah, so it was a collaborative effort is it? Nice. Kudos to all involved then!
5462391
Most of it, but feel free to explain, either in PM or here, whichever you're more comfortable with.
5463785
Well, that's the only one I can think of, but it's the most transparent middle finger to Chatoyance herself (rather than people with her worldview) that I put in.
EDIT: I checked that thing you linked to, and find it funny that we both described her immaturity in similar terms.
5463846
Yeah well, given the way she was behaving, what choice did I really have? The truth is the best weapon against people with attutudes like the one she seems to so desperately cling to. The whole 'I'm perfect' bit.
Nobody's perfect, and we can always all do better. That's why I always ask people to look at my work and give me their most brutally honest opinions. Being told my work is good is fine. But I don't necessarily learn from blind praise. In fact, I know for a fact that I don't. By comparison, constructive criticism, even if the reader hates the fic, is a great gift. In fact, NoMoreSanity did me a great favor when he reviewed the original version of my prologue to The Warrior's Way. I did a rewrite that I think is much stronger than the version he reviewed (and said review is still there. It was hilarious, honest, and brutal. Just what I needed.) and that's thanks in part to his willingness to get right up in my face about it. Granted, I asked him to do that, but I'd be a lot happier if my readers all took a hint from him and gave me more than just a 'hey, liked the story/chapter' once in awhile.
5463909
We shouldn't talk about for own sake.
5463993
What, we shouldn't talk about the fact that I welcome criticism of my fics and want more of it?
5463993 old habits die hard, I suspect
