Uh, okay, lol! There are some lore breaks here, from ME3 and from our story:

1. You realize you just changed the gender of the BaL Shepard, right?

2. I  I don't think a Destroyer controls Reapers, but I could totally be wrong about that and/or I can believe it. However...

3. Shepard's Thanax missiles do not nuke the Destroyer. They damage them enough so that Thanax missiles also group fired from other squads blows the destroyers, which brings me to...

4. The entire point of the Rea and Rothan arc was to distract Reaper forces so that the krogan could fire the missiles, so as far as a time scale jump goes, they went from 'hey we just got into battle' to 'hey we're all done!' So...that's not inconsistent, but...a bit hard to figure out for me right now.

Just sayin'.... :)

See the simple solution to the problem, and the other part of the solution is for me to e-mail the file to you and you can do whatever you want with it. Use it to line the cat box if you want. 

The wiki just says "Reapers" can muster up ground forces. It doesn't say which kind. Destroyers are Reapers. Really it's pretty vague. It also says that they hibernate when they're in dark space, and when they do they're vulnerable. Like we got to see that.

Sure...that addresses point number 4...but still breaks lore and um, gender swap?

Whatcha up to Julia?

I fixed the file to be consistent with lore and the plan you have. You should have the file any minute.

Still pushing the 'girls in the mall' encounter forward. They'll catchup.

You know how it is. I have an idea. And suddenly it get's blown out of all proportion and someone get's thrown into a pit of fire while a high a kite former comrade goes all Terminator and starts stalking the halls

Or maybe she's gone all Carrie on Wyld.

After a long time on hiatus I think that all the major players have been reintroduced. With the one who has obviously changed the most being Naomi.

It was a bit cruel to leave Wyld's fate dangling in the breeze, but I think she can stand to hang around for awhile.

Event's are overlapping to a degree.

I not so secretly hope that Khambilo and Furious F come on back for some comments on what they would like to see happen with their characters at least. Of course, I prefer their writing, but I know things can get tough in that regard sometimes.

Ditto.

I have plans based off their intended direction for these characters, but to get through the workload I have to handle them all enmasse and fast and loose. I think sometimes that can not be the greatest thing for a character.

Still, that's how the Wyld and Zia kiss scene emerged so it can't all be bad.

Regarding what is to come.

Zia now has her sister and needs to figure out their relationship in the face of a Reaper assault.

Wyld's, and co's oringinal mission is a bust on every level and, as long as she doesn't get eaten, is going to have to pull a rabbit out of her helmet to get them out of another fine mess.

Naomi's clearly insane now. Or at the very least, is operating with impaired reasoning. Voices in her head telling ehr to come down? Didn't Lucy mention something about that? Hmmmmmm. Plus she's going into biotic fem fatale mode with the leather and the zipper.

And Lucy?............. I absolutely refuse to allow her and Baldurjack within a 5 mile radius of each other. They'd steal every scene from Zia and Wyld.

Anyway. Mission statements for this mall scene.

Reinvigorate Naomi's character.

Rationalise Zia's relationship with Lucy.

Show Wylds growth as a commander and the fallout of some of her decisions.

Show the Reapers splintering off in new, fun and interesting ways with a sacricial pit. (otherwise known as another processor with delusions of grandeur).

Oh the repurcussions of the Reapers not being of one mind are to good not to have a temple of doom meets wallmart encounter.

I drafted through one last night while I was on some weed. I'm dreading looking at it this morning. OMG am I dreading looking at it.

You're asking me to cast Asari? OMG. You're asking me to cast Asari? Do you know how hard it is to cast Asari? Especially the way I made the Asari? And why? Don't laugh. Promise?

Sarge: Claudia Black - from Farscape - Well, because Claudia Black was bad ass.
Ereba: Gina Gershon - because Ereba had this thing going with Shayrana. They were bound.
Ranassa: Jenette Goldstein - well I based the character on a combination of Animal Mother and Vasquez.
T: Pam Grier - because I heard Pam Grier.
Shayrana: Jennifer Tilly - See Ereba

Reviewing SJ's work might have killed my writing for today, sorry. More tomorrow. We shall see if I can do extra. But it was for a good cause so no one should worry.

Cast? I think I might not be a great caster. And of course, there's a long list of people I forget to think about with casting. The best actors/actresses can do any role so I guess it has to be assumed that we are going only by the body of prior work.

I can't do the casting in relationship to SJ either as Rea is older by relevant age to Ereba, Ranassa, T and Shayrana, but younger than Sarge. So age is off the table and we'll assume makeup people can place Rea appropriately :). But, let me think about this, hmmn,

either a young Angelina Jolie:

or:

Amanda Seyfried:

Sorry, that's all of who I could think of right now.

Off the top of my head, Wyld could be played by Robin Curtis in her younger days.

I once saw her break into song next to Gene Wilder in a movie. I think she could capture Wylds swerves from Seat of your Pants insane plans to serious bedside manner/Commander aspect.

As for who would play Steiner.......

Finally. One of her without the ears!

Watson: So you think the smart thing to do would be to leave Terra Firma?

Ranassa: It's **** **** damn it elementary dear Watson.

T: Yep, she's hot for him. Cradle snatcher.

Ranassa: Say that again!

T: Well it's not like your getting any younger, yah know?

I swore I was going to click on this when I saw that link.

My post was edited.  Because there is no sniper.  There is an infiltrator, who is John, playoff52's character.

lol

Marauder Shields stood before the bubbling pool of human remains. Clad in black with a white collar around his neck.

"Nyaahrraaaraagghhhaaaaanaaaa......." (*Translated from Reaper - Dearly beloved flesh bags whose ascenation shall soon be upon you........).

"Nyaahrraaaraagghhhaaaaanaaaa......." ( We have put down our weapons to join together in witness of two hearts who shall soon become one...... if you catch my meaning.Nudge nudge wink wink).

"Nyaahrraaaraagghhhaaaaanaaaa......." (Because really...... All hearts..... and livers..... and pancreas...... and every other body part you have shall soon be indistinguisable when we're through with you....... Much like the love we have seen blossum before us this eve.....).

Wyld looked at Zia. "I think we should have spent more on the vicar, This one's a buzz kill".

Zia nodded and pulled out a long combat knife from her boot. "I'll take care of it. Stand back...." she said, advancing on Shields. ".....Here come's the bride"!

Yeah, weekends can be tough for me.

My goal is to get 4-5 entries done a week. This week was tough and sections took longer than I wanted...and that's only with one draft. I will do this until I'm done, though. And whatever, it takes a long time. I just miss other writers entries, but I can live. Thanks RB and SJ for keeping the mojo alive!

Lessee. Reapers below with a processor. With a group coming for the girls.

Naomi's addled and has taken on a bad girl personae. And is prowling the top.

And the dread Lucy has turned out to be something else than the picutre Zia painted of her...... well she has been holding off the sand for awhile. So's she's going to be looking for her hit soon.
