Suddenly I'm imagining a bunch of Contessas speaking to each other through giant monoliths about how everything is going according to the path.Well, look at that. It was both a trolling chapter, and a plotting chapter. They used the cloning and mind tech to make a second Contessa, and fed a Contessa to GU. Brilliant.
I think this one wins.Mesektet (the vessel on which Thoth sailed the underworld; literally the name of a ship)
Eidolon: You know I'm not one to question the use of religious imagery, but don't you think you're going a little bit too far?Suddenly I'm imagining a bunch of Contessas speaking to each other through giant monoliths about how everything is going according to the path.
Edit: And I totally agree that Lisa and Rebecca go rather well together. Their chapters are some of my favorites.
Path to getting David to shut the fuck up: two steps. Step one, remove duct tape from suit-coat pocket...Eidolon: You know I'm not one to question the use of religious imagery, but don't you think you're going a little bit too far?
SEELEContessas: Shut the fuck up, David.

Err, I might be missing a joke, but if you're referring to her not being able to percieve Eidolon, that's not entirely true. She created a model of him, and she uses that model for her power. And considering how well she knows him, that model's going to be pretty accurate. It just can't really account for him perfectly.Please don't make jokes that require the pedants amongst us to correct you.
Steps to anything-involving-Eidolon are
1: Fog;
2: more Fog; and
3: can't see number of steps because of all this goddamn Fog.
Step two was "raise left eyebrow."Please don't make jokes that require the pedants amongst us to correct you.

I've heard this multiple times, but I've never been able to find a citation.Err, I might be missing a joke, but if you're referring to her not being able to percieve Eidolon, that's not entirely true.

Allow me.I've heard this multiple times, but I've never been able to find a citation.
Could you tell me where you heard that?
SourceInterlude 27 said:Yes, he was a blind spot for her, but she knew him well enough to construct a sufficiently 'David-like' model in her head, to come up with the right answers for every question and statement. But he would have known. He knew what she did and how she operated, and it would have colored everything.
ConcernSuspicion. Amelia's right, are they? Fuck, how am I supposed to handle that? If they're not, then bringing it up is just humiliating. If they are, then... fuck... this could get complicated in a very bad way, very quickly. Somehow I didn't imagine this would work out as well as Theo, Missy and Riley managed to. Lily was absolutely critical to our operations, but Sabah was a good person and didn't deserve being cheated on.
She's attractive, emotionally vulnerable, and spends most of her time around lesbians that touch her a lot.So does Beth have a secondary power that makes people think she's sleeping with other women or something? Because this is one incident away from a pattern.
If Cauldron sells it, sign me up.Do any of those count as a secondary power? Because if so, then yes.
PleasedLove."I never really though of controlling bugs as all that good," I responded awkwardly. Being praised by normal people, I can handle. Being praised by top tier parahumans is something else entirely. And Anima was top tier, by any ordinary standard. "I'm just lucky to have others that can make me stronger." I slipped my arm around Amelia's waist. PleasedLove. Really, really lucky.
ConcernSupportLove."Yeah, don't worry about it," I responded, smiling and feeling incredibly awkward about it. Still, I dealt with Bitch, and was even getting through to her when... had it really been so long ago? ConcernSupportLove.
AgreementDismay.
She has more important things to do than listen to gossip, so it's not unreasonable that she doesn't know.Wait, did Taylor not know that Lily and Sabbah broke up?
Or are they officially back together again? (Boo!)
That doesn't hold up as well when you consider that both the people involved are Endslayers though.She has more important things to do than listen to gossip, so it's not unreasonable that she doesn't know.
Taylor and Amelia don't actually do all that much (in the organization), all things considered. It's been noted more than once that they sort of... bundle themselves away and mush data.That doesn't hold up as well when you consider that both the people involved are Endslayers though.
Then again I don't think that Lily and Sabah went around screaming that they were single again. Lily has been pretty reserved about it and Sabah is working out of another city.
There's an easy fix: delete the index! That'll show 'em.
Disgusting. I love it.
Classic Taylor.
"Alright, everyone out of the room," she instructed. "Delicate instruments, I need to make adjustments in real time, usual warnings and the like."
Oh god, I hope it's just something like that. I was worried it was heading into a nightmarish Broken!Beth, especially with the "Hey, we'll get your mind backed up after this perfectly safe thing!"I have a feeling the next chapter is going to be an Emma/Beth interlude, and Emma wants to tell Beth a secret.
Extra word.Amelia, Ch 335- Taylor
"Sabah's really made a name name for herself,"
Italics.
I think Zach's been rubbing off on her.So Emma has gone fully through the crazy into the other side. How much good can she accomplish as one of the few sane individuals in the setting?
And she didn't even get it. Sorry Emma, no pats on the head from Taylor today. Maybe tomorrow?
