Andalite Chronicles thoughts (pt. 4):

This book does so much to emphasize that Visser Three really is Esplin 9466 AND Alloran: he has Esplin's arrogance but Alloran's fondness for battle, Esplin's andalite obsession but Alloran's collection of monster morphs and heavy reliance on morph-fighting, Esplin's temper but Alloran's knack for shock-and-awe. Like, Visser Three wouldn't be the guy we see in canon if not for Alloran's influence.

Related: the motif of rigid power structures being a bad damn idea continues in this book. Alloran is more responsible for Alloran getting infested than Elfangor is, and Elfangor takes forever to realize Alloran has been infested, because Alloran has such absolute power over the others.

Would the andalites have been able to take back the taxxon planet, if they'd just bothered to ally with the taxxons? It certainly seems that way, given how well the rebel taxxons do at attacking the spaceport and how incompetent the andalites seem to be at managing the situation. If Elfangor had just stuck around and fought with Arbron, they might've been able to turn the tide of the war right there. Too bad Elfangor didn't have access to a morphing cube when he crashed on this planet...

Seriously, though, I love the use of the taxxons and hork-bajir as Freud Masterplots for the humans: they parallel the humans to show how the humans could end up, if humanity didn't have Animorphs on its side. Waiting for the andalites isn't enough; the hosts have got to be their own heroes or they'll be crushed between the imperial powers no matter whose side wins.

Also, I love the... IDK, identity horror? Of the protagonists' attempt to use the Time Matrix. Like, it shows that the technology is terrifying because it is beyond all human comprehension — but in ways that are scary because they're weird. It answers the question of "why not use time travel to fix everything?" with "because no one knows how to use it effectively, and your brain will tear itself in half if you try."

Executive Reform - 8 -Tactical

elementalsight answered to your post “That point in the night where your prompt drabble has spawned fifteen…”

Midgar is the Base, Shinra is the company that Builds Jagers, the Kaiju are coming […]

Previously in the Pacific Rim/FFVII AU: 1- Engineering. 2 - Urban Development. 3 - Software.  4 - Oil and Coal. 4.5 - Propaganda. 5 - Defence. 6 - Operations. 7. Sensors. 7.5. Jaegermeisters.

8. Tactical

‘Ladies and gentlemen!’ Scarlet shouted down to the bay below, leaning out precariously over the edge of the crane’s box. The massed crowd shouted and clapped up. 'Tomorrow, we welcome the beginning of the end of the end of the world. But tonight,’ she said, turning back to look at Hojo for a brief moment. 'Tonight, we’re still men and women fighting to survive. We’ve fought long, and hard, and without knowing when we might ever rest or see peace.’

2200 words.

FFVII AU, in which

a) Vincent survives Hojo’s initial experiments, but is stuck in his Galian Beast form forever,

b) Lucrecia completes her thesis using herself, essentially becoming Chaos’ vessel instead of Vincent,

c) Hojo (not pictured) lives through several half-hearted assassination attempts because of a) and b) above, and is forced, over time, to mellow the fuck out,

d) And so, instead of growing up with no parents, Sephiroth grows up with three (or four, if you count Jenova, who’s still in there somewhere), and as a result is actually quite well-adjusted. Sort of.

Creative liberties taken with Galian Beast and Lucrecia’s Chaos form (she does have wings - they sprout at will).

Sketchdump. Trying to get back into the habit!

No matter how much you love Shinra, you’d have to admit that most of the higher-ups weren’t exactly fleshed-out characters - rather, one-dimensional charactertures who only had one gimmick and/or were rather stupid to boot. Which is why I love seeing them do normal, human things, like talking to each other in the corridors and collaborating on projects like adults and colleagues. I like to see them as people who actually have the skills and mindsets to believably hold the most powerful positions in the world.

Reeve and Scarlet; Hollander and Hojo; Rufus, Dark Nation, and Shinra Snr; Veld, Heideggar, and Lazard…

…and Tseng and Aerith. Just because.

Before the Cetra weakened and sealed her in her mutated state, Jenova could sprout wings at will - just like all her more successful ‘children’.

Request for Jenova made by Kat.

Side note: Also before she was frozen, Jenova had no set form or gender, and went around most of the time being both male and female at once.

Worldcat is my bestie and my one true love!! Not only does it tell you what library a book is at, but it also price compares different used book sites against each other for easy view! It's how I got Tarot For the Master for $10!!

[growing-yet-into-magic]

Oh, and since I have your attention: z-library (books and textbooks) and sci-hub (gatekept scientific journal articles.) I just ripped a textbook for class off z-library and snatched a required reading from sci-hub. Life is good and education should be accessible at every stage and station of life.

THERE’S A SEARCH ENGINE FOR THAT

And it’s called SearXNG. It’s a metasearch engine, so it takes information from whatever providers you select and presents it to you as Google might but without ads or tracking, and you can pick which sources it searches, so you could only search Wikipedia and scihub and worldcat and whatnot by default
