    In the show, Iroh went explained why he didn't.

    Hmm, the whole thing where ending the magic doesn't just cancel ongoing effects, but actually retcons all the secondary non-magic consequences kinda bugs me.

    Didn't they? Guess I got my epithets mixed up. I know they call him something dramatic besides "the Doctor" sometimes.

    Indeed. There's a reason the Daleks call him "the oncoming storm" If you see the Doctor, the smart move is to leave the planet because shit is about to go down and you don't wanna be part of the collateral.

    When your whole team is outright evil, You have to walk the fine line between "smart enough to be useful" and "smart enough to successfully mutiny and take over" when choosing minions. It's safer to err on the side of idiots if you can put up with the annoyance. Tyrants do not set up a system...

    If you want proper scalie bois, just go back a bit before dinos to the time of crocodiliformes. They look like "classic" dinos. Previously in the story it was mentioned that New Gods don't suffer from those sorts of power ring effects.

    Oh, I'm looking forward to this. Get the popcorn. The good kind.

    Oh hell yes. That's gonna be hilarious. His willingness to efficiently kill supervillains is gonna freak them right out.

    One thing about the Tok'ra: They weren't incompetent. Their limited results were due to their small numbers. Not using the sarcophagus limited the number of hosts, and lack of a symbiote queen limited the number of symbiotes. They were limited to things like sabotage and counterintelligence...

    Likewise, if he goes with the "brain dead clone" story, then the host's mind would essentially be a copy of the symbiote's.

    Hmm, I would have expected the brain damage from over-use of the sarcophagus to take the form of screwing up the brain chemistry or simply regrowing the neural tissue incorrectly like a set of microscopic tumors rather than lesions. Overdoing the job rather than half-assing it what with the way...

    Not to Wolverine levels like Bumblebee experienced that one time, but the pseudo-organic way they function in the Prime series does include the ability for the "biological" aspects of their internals to self-repair and maintain themselves. I interpret their external armor shell as being like a...

    There isn't enough coffee in the world to help Fowler cope with this. Anyway, I love the explorations of how cybertronian relationships work. Most others try and "humanize" them too much. I might have mentioned this before, but in one transformers fanfic I read, they justified having the kids...

    Not yet, but he will find them if he decides to take a peek at other habitable worlds.

    One rather clever setup used in the show was having the gate on a gimbal to hold it horizontally so they could just dump the grain cargo through to a hopper on the planet they were sending it to. Gates can stay open for 38 minutes at a time, which is enough to send a lot of cargo through. If...
