Re: Retribution, chapter 1, (spoilers)

I see zero chance that Jason would help get more Consortium civilians out. Giving them a one-way trip to somewhere else is one thing providing ongoing support is something else entirely. Giving the Consortium that trip would already piss off plenty of his local allies, doing more would likely be see...

Chapter 27

I would have expected Kel to pick up the basics of flying far easier, what with his gliding experience. Things like turning especially. The endurance is another matter, there is only one non-magical way to build that. I won't, however, be surprised if he can figure out a way for his newly enhanced a...

Re: Chapter 26

If they do their own mining it has been on such a small scale as to hardly be worth mentioning. If they did their own mining then it would not be so critical for the metal of the sunken ships to be salvaged and they wouldn't be talking about all the things they can do now that they have that source ...

Re: Earth Bond, chapter 26.

Thanks bunches.

BTW, is there a reason you didn't put up chapter announcements for the last two Earth Bond chapters in the RSS feed like you have for other stories?

Chapter 26

A thought I had upon reading ch 26: I am not sure that prior experience with spiking dragons actually tells them whether it is possible for an earth dragon to form a bond with a dragon of one of the other races. Sure, dragons have survived being spiked, but how many of those were cases where the spi...

Re: Conviction chapter 13

One thing I really don't get in this chapter is how there isn't a doctor waiting for the rescue party to get back. Okay, they didn't know how horrific Aria's condition would be but there was still the possibility of injury to deal with. Especially as they had a doc on the station earlier to check wh...

Re: Conviction Chapter 14

Well, advanced enough psionics ignores the intervening 3-D space so I would expect armor wouldn't be much help. I'm not sure if internal body manipulation (like causing a stroke or heart attack) is TK or not but I also don't see that it matters.

Re: Conviction Chapter 14

I'm wondering how do you go from dreams like a dragon eating a giant that's about to stomp a village to numerical percentage chance of success.

Re: Conviction Chapter 14

I am surprised that Aria would have any modesty. Given how she was treated (i.e. the Benga simply didn't care about her - or even think of her - as a person at all) I would think modesty would get in the way of what little personal care they would have given her.

Re: Conviction chapter 13

I have an idea for how to do the super-ship damage, have a worm hoe, star gate, whatever, only it doesn't need a frame the way Faey equipment does. The weapon form creates a gate that is larger than whatever creates it, then just send the thing straight through the super-ship. Nice neat edges, no da...

Re: Conviction chapter 13

I am surprised that the systems around the oracle child weren't fail-deadly. Cutting power and control should be enough to tell the kill devices to activate.

Re: Conviction Chapter 11 {Spoilers}

E=MC^2 matters here, folks. If you assume you have one "unit" of matter, that one "unit" of energy is equal to 300,000 SQUARED. A single atom of matter holds within it absolutely immense amounts of energy. Now to be fair, not ALL of that energy is released when an atom undergoes...

Re: Conviction Chapter 11 {Spoilers}

Even at its best ripping apart the atoms that make up molecules wouldn't produce much of a bang (that's normal chemical explosives territory - TNT and the like). It would take ripping sub-atomic particles to produce a nuclear-level bang. And even then it would need to be elements heavier than iron (...
