Yours is quite good too I imagine.

This is a crossover with Space Station 13.
This story will be (loosely) based on TGstation lore.


The year is 2562 and the massive megacorporation known as Nanotrasen has a stranglehold on all business within the Spinward Stellar Coalition, or SSC. The SSC itself is content with allowing Nanotrasen to operate within its space but many other groups want nothing more than to see the corporation burn. One such group is the Syndicate.

The Syndicate is not a single entity but rather a coalition made up of many corporations, crime families, religious sects, and other groups all united by their hatred of Nanotrasen. What started as simple corporate espionage has turned into active warfare between Nanotrasen and the Syndicate, with Nanotrasen's latest research station being the next battleground...

Markus Harrison, the sole shaft miner of Research Outpost 24, is instructed to scout out a potential mining site on Equus for Nanotrasen. Everything goes horribly wrong.

This is the story of the crew of Research Outpost 24 and Equus, a meta-class space station that has recently been built over an inhabited primitive planet within a remarkable geocentric star system and the planet the star orbits respectively.

Unfortunately for Nanotrasen, the Syndicate is not the only enemy with an interest in this station. From various seemingly magical cults praising violent illegal deities to other governments within the galaxy. The corporation has much to contend with if they hope to keep this system within their grasp for very long.


This is my first story on any writing site ever. All criticism is welcome.

Oh, bugger, I accidentally refreshed the page and lost my original comment with a bunch of detailed corrections and it's too late for me to rewrite it all. The short version: I'm interested and I think this is an idea with potential. You have a lot of grammatical errors, some where you're using the wrong grammatical mood, others where you shift into the wrong tense or number. You would probably do well to join one of the site's writing groups and find a pre-reader or editor to help you out. It sounds like this is your first published fic - you'll get better at the technical stuff with practice, too.

You have a lot of sentences like "Markus would sigh." But this is a narrative where you're telling us what happened, not what would have happened if something else occurred. So you should just use the past tense: "Markus sighed." Anyway, +1 and tracking.

If Randolf P. Checkers isn't QM I say we riot... and get the clown in on it.

I am glad you are enjoying the story! Im not quite happy with how short I made the second chapter but trying to add more felt forced. I intend to go through and revise both chapters soon.

I will be getting back to revising and then writing more for this story soon. Finally found the time to write some more. I have a few ideas for other stories already though I have an idea of how I want this one to go already and I am pretty happy with it.

*sees SS13 fic*
*excited Vox screaming*

Only real conflict I can see happening so far is if ponies de ide to get stupid and try to force their way into Nanotrasen's business.

Oh yeah, if that had the intended effect on Luna then Equestria is totally fucked.
