tbt when I was really goin thru it last summer so I coped by...cobbling stock/video game footage together into a "live action" intro for our Lancer campaign, I guess.

Hopefully still enjoyable even if all the references are lost :P

Writing Index

For my own reference, but also in case you're here for Lancer fiction! From most to least recent:

A Mom's Musings

Emma's mother Calia reflects on her choices after rescuing her infant daughter from SSC.

~*~

Encrypt

Emma tries to drink deep in order to find the truth behind a partially-decrypted warning she sent herself from another timeline. Sam fishes her out before she can hurt herself. Response to session on 3/6/25.

~*~

Beneath the Mask

Sam normally wears an unflappable persona to the squad. But he's feeling broody after everything that went down in the metavault.

~*~

Cooked

Response to several encounters in and surrounding ERIS' metavault, 2/6/25. Emma reflects on the one Cousin she got along with, why he seems so different now, and what the metavault has to do with it all.

~*~

Aftermath

Response to combat outside a metavault on 1/23/25, from the antagonists' perspective. Why had Emma and Feren been so insistent on sparing them? Why couldn't Daniel shoot Emma when he had the chance?

~*~

Cycles

Response to combat on 1/10/25. Emma's complicated feelings about facing her ex-squadmates cause her to re-live moments from their shared past.

~*~

Downtime

Response to our session on 10/17/24. Sam's feeling pensive and working out his feelings through art; Emma stays to support him and reflect a bit on how she feels about RA.

~*~

Time Split

Response to a session in March of 2024. Emma asks Sam, her Didymos co-pilot, to try Time Split on her. It goes about as well as expected.

~*~

Glitch Time

Response to a session in February of 2024. Emma is forced to use the Lich's core power without any NHP support (because she was only LL2 at the time :) ) and it does not do great things for her mental health.

~*~

Chat with [REDACTED]

Intro post from the beginning of our campaign meant to kinda set Emma up, tease some of her more dramatic character bits, and explain why tf she's being sent to Cressidium in a Chomolungma instead of her Lich.

In Guardian Hero Theta-V movie four, The Way Through, Theta risks everything to save Princess Ulara from certain destruction during their final stand, but in the end she decides to stay with him and face their fate together in a last-ditch effort to bring down Guldar Prime. She’d seen that movie approximately thirty-seven times. It felt like that anyway. Maybe it was only like five. Elias always held the impossibly bad take that GHTV3 was the superior film and that 4 was sentimental garbage, but Elias was allowed to be wrong. The soundtrack was perfect. The cinematography was top-notch—
