URGH! NO! NO! DONT EVEN MENTION THAT GENESTEALER-LUST RIDDLED BOOK!I don't know enough about Gundam to comment. The only one I ever watched was Gundam SEED and the story didn't seem to make sense.
Turns out? It's actually reasonably easy. A excommunicated Inquisitor named Jaq Draco managed it with some digging equipment and a lot of patience. Basically, Terra has so many layers filled with dust underneath everything that you can get anywhere if you don't mind digging. The Emperor had to hide him when he actually got there, but he pierced the building on his own.
Yes.
The what?
That's in the 'did not happen' bucket.
Which means his ring has been corrupted by Chaos.A few weeks, I think. And it turns out that he can charge slowly from the warp.
By interesting you mean you would have to massively nerf the orbital defenses to keep them from instantly obliterating him like what happened the last time someone/something just randomly appeared in orbit of Terra.
My knowledge of 40k might very well be lacking, but that seems like something even a power ring wouldn't be able to do, or at least struggle heavily with, especially for a newbie-SI who doesn't have more esoteric skills yet. (though maybe Maltusian tech is just completely superior to the pinnacle of Imperium tech that would guard the throne room, I don't know for sure).
I believe there's also an SI in the Warhammer Fantasy universe (something to do with Black Fleets). Is there also one in Age of Sigmar?
What Zoat seemingly forgot here, is that the Emperor's throne room is warded.Turns out? It's actually reasonably easy.

Before or after Jaq Draco dug his way in?What Zoat seemingly forgot here, is that the Emperor's throne room is warded.
Before and After.
Before and After.
Further, something Zoat forgot to mention, was that "Jaq Draco" did his thing 2000 years ago and after revealing the Ordo Hydra's plot helped fix the holes in the Throne Rooms security.
*blinks* wha?That's sure a nice way to say the author should ignore a hard fact of the setting so he can make his SI a badass.
My apologies, I totally misread what you said.*blinks* wha?
i was...agreeing with your point- that it was absurd for him to SURVIVE the injection point, let alone for a Random, "plucky baseline" inquisitor to effortlessly slip past the entirity of the Imperium's garison on Terra (considering the High Lords are there,i.e protecting someone actually important/said high lords actually care about, thats one hell of a fucking achievement), and the Fucking Adeptus Custodes-as in, the purpose-rebuilt/engineered army of mini-primarch bodyguards
im saying an Injection into 40K in High Terra orbit is as nonsensical (barring a joke with a punchline of "he was vaporised about 12 seconds later as he tried to gather his barings) as Draco's entire Story >.<
But what about Gundam X?My recommendation, if you intend to actually get into it, is to pick one and stick with it. Each one has its own quirks- UC is the largest of the lot, and starts it all by being a deconstruction of the mecha genre, Mobile Fighter G Gundam is the most upbeat of them, with hot blooded mecha martial arts and over the top action being done specifically to change things up from Victory Gundam's really depressing ending (and also has a scene in the final episode the literally moves people to tears), Mobile Report Gundam Wing is... Actually really faithful to the franchise's themes, if you can get past the edgy protagonists being edgy before they have their character developments, Turn A is best left for last if you ever want to watch it, as it has one hell of a mindfuck at the end, you know how Gundam SEED turned out, and Mobile Suit Gundam 00 is a deconstruction of Mobile Suit Gundam as a franchise. Yes, it's a deconstruction of a deconstruction. We do not speak of Gundam AGE. And I have no opinion of Iron Blooded Orphans beyond really depressing.
Just keep in mind, that whichever one you want to watch, raving lunatics being in charge for no discernible reason beyond "charisma" and thinly veiled dick jokes are a staple of the franchise.

Take notes. This is how one does Evil with class.
This seems more like minor annoyance territory then Evil.
Remove "the".
Change "head" to "heads".
Hardly; consider, no male Alicorns until now to make it exceptionally plausible.This seems more like minor annoyance territory then Evil.
And heck, there's no way this is the first time that particular rumor has surfaced.
Thank you, corrected.
Ah, Time dilation. Always handy for making things away from home take next to no time at all.2nd April 2012
06:27 GMT -6
Except it's not
Four minutes is an hour.
Oh, that must open up a whole new world of trolling opportunities...That means that while it feels like I've been here for around seven hours, it's actually been about half an hour. It's not half past six in the morning, it's eleven the previous day… Or thereabouts.
I sniff the air and.. take a left. I think that my sense of smell is more acute as a pony.
What convenient timing for Celestia. You'd almost think she planned for this...Which means that this is still the first of April. So what I'm about to is completely in character.
I take a moment to review the footage I'm getting from my spy drone. Twilight's herd was here to set up a surprise 'Congratulations on Coping with Canterlot' party. Apparently, Celestia's spending a few days in Manehattan and left Luna in charge, which explains why we haven't seen the her.
Remember the Mantra: "It's just a TV show and I shouldn't worry about the details."And that suggests that her ability to sense the arcane is somewhat limited. And that she didn't have any sort of detection spell set up on the Mirror.
I sniff again and here we are! A pony Indian restaurant! I have no idea how that's even a thing! But I don't care! I guess India has ponies too, though… I don't know how that maps onto Equestria. Maybe they're from outside Equestria? Pass. And the door is just about big enough to let me in, so…
Because of course there are ponies watching him covertly."Ahoy the restaurant? Sorry I don't have a res…" Huh. Empty. Great! I walk all of the way inside and make eye contact with the portly waiter. "Reservation, but I eat like a-" Um. "-hippopotamus."
The thick-set stallion waiter doesn't seem troubled by my entrance. "We can seat you, sir. Is there anyone else in your party?"
Hm. "Let me just check."
Yes, I doubt most ponies would be so perceptive. They tend to be a little oblivious when it's funny.I turn around and stick my head out of the door.
"If you three have been told to keep an eye on me, you might as well do the job on a full stomach." My shadows don't move from their places of concealment; one on a rooftop, one behind a barrel and the third behind a weak chameleon spell. "My goggles are enchanted to bypass concealment attempts and these ear rings are empathic weapons."
I can just see them thinking, "Might as well get a good meal on the mark's bit."A giant yellow arrow marks each of their locations, and the one with the chameleon spell glances upwards before slumping and giving up.
"I'm buying?"
The batpony peeks over the roofline, then drops down onto the street. The unicorn dismisses their spell and the earth pony undulates out of the barrel in a way which.. doesn't look natural for the equine body. I smile and back up into the restaurant.
The joy of being a real horse in a Pony's world."Table for four."
"Just here, sirs and madam."
Madam..? Oh, yes, the batpony is a mare. Lunar armour on her and the unicorn. The three of them take their seats while… Yeah, that's not going to work. I'll just sit on the floor. I'm still taller then them, but at least it's not quite as ridiculous as it would be if I joined them on the bench.
Oh, god, it's a Siberia detail isn't it? What did these three do to end up watching the giant bat-alicorn?As the waiter heads off to pick up some menus I lean closer. "Why are you following me?"
Their eyes each flick to the other two, and none answer.
"Okay, you're wearing night-themed armour and the sun is down. You're night guards. Luna has supreme autocratic authority so if she wanted me arrested I'd be arrested. Your officer take initiative?"
In for a bite, in for the whole apple.Seems unlikely, but it would be nice to know that those two total nitwits from the day shift aren't the sum total of the guard's officer corps.
"Come on. If you were ordered not to directly contact me then you've already-." A menu is deposited in front of each of us. "Thank you. Already failed that part. What's the harm in telling me who ordered me monitored?"
Does he look like a local, Chuckles? I rather think he'd stand out in any crowd..."We've got standing orders to monitor anyone who uses dark magic." Batmare blows her fringe out of her face. "We're still waiting for orders on exactly what to do about you."
Earth pony looks around. "Do you know this restaurant?"
...Have you seen the size of him? He could probably eat you and have room for more."Took a walk down the…" I wave my left forehoof in the general direction of outside. "Main.. restaurant row, and they appeared to be serving… Cardboard? I don't think I'm a cardboard-eating pony. But here-" I open the menu and take a look. "-they serve actual food." I turn to the waiter. "It all looks great. I'll just have one of everything."
"I think sir may be ordering too much."
Ah... One more crime for the list: Counterfeiting currency. Or maybe devaluing currency? Who knows what laws they have on the books?"Look at the size of me, I'm built like a rhino." I take a small crate out of subspace and push it over to him. "And I have unlimited storage, so I can just doggy bag everything I don't get through. And-" The bit is a commodity currency, so stamping a load of my own gold was an easy way to secure fungible resources. "-if I'm paying-" I flip open the lid and his eyes light up. "-cash, who cares?"
"Sir makes a good point."
And the floodgates open. Half expecting all three of them to start babbling.The crate vanishes as he head to the kitchen and starts shouting orders.
"Anyway, if you're following me… Is there anything you want to ask me?"
Oh, boy. Grayven is about to up his trolling game, isn't he?The unicorn frowns. "Are you working for the Princesses? I mean… You're an alicorn. Have you..? Fulfilled some sort of prophecy, or… Studied the magic of friendship-." I raise my eyebrows incredulously and he looks away. "Yeah I didn't think so."
"No, no, I mean…" I shake my head. "Prophecy? Friendship magic? Are.. they still telling people that? That's not how alicorns are made."
......... Oh, this is going to result in hilarity. So much hilarity, Pinkie Pie will consider the hilarity excessive!"It isn't?" The earth pony tilts his head slightly to the left. "Then how are alicorns made?"
I take a quick look around and then lean in, prompting the three of them to do the same.
"Alicornism is sexually transmitted."
And in another world, Trollestia is taking notes. As is Molestia.Their eyes boggle and their bodies freeze.
"So magic of special friendship, maybe. I wish Celestia and Twilight felt they could be open about their relationship, but…" I wrinkle my nose. "I guess after so long without an official consort Celestia's got a hang-up about it."
"Oh, not just me. Do you have any idea how pent-up someone can get after one thousand years of solitary exile? No one stallion could survive that long."They keep staring.
"Duh." Batmare flaps her right wing twice, then points it at me. "Y-you..?"
Bwahaha! That's what I said!"Well, after going without for a thousand years I imagine you'd be a bit pent up too, but looking at Luna you'd never think she'd be quite that… Vigorous. Heck, I'm lucky I was an earth pony; the other seven guys are still in hospital." They're still staring. "Oh, they'll be fine. Alicorns have the magic of the three tribes, so now they've got earth pony endurance too. Guess we'll just… Each take a day of the week or something."
"You know, if you feel the need to spit-take or something. I understand that pink pony Princess Twilight Sparkle knows swears by it.""Eight?"
"Covering holidays and illnesses, you know. And team events. And maybe she'll calm down once she's got it out of her system. Or, you know, in her system, heh. You want anything to drink?"
Heh, that Unicorn needs something stronger than they serve here, I think.The unicorn unsteadily levitates his menu up in front of his face. "I wonder if they have an alcohol licence? I hope they have an alcohol licence."
"Wait wait-" The earth pony shakes his head. "-wait. Captain Shining Armor isn't an alicorn. How-?"
"Way too much information? Yes, I wish I could forget about that detail myself...""Ah… I don't really know the fellow, but I'm guessing that with all the work the Crystal 'Empire' needs, they don't think it's a sensible time to have a foal and they're using barrier contraception. Barriers are his special talent, after all. No intimate fluid contact-."
"Okay!" He holds up his forehooves. "Okay, that's…"
Oh, boy. And the Mane Six thought Discord was a prankster? They have no idea...The unicorn fidgets. "Princess Celestia and Princess Twilight Sparkle… They're really hiding their relationship?"
The other parts of evil plan phase one are nearly in place… So I nod.
I love that they're buying this. At all. Grayven must have an 80+ in Speech!"Huh. I hadn't really thought about.. that sort of thing before. She's just.. so… Above us all. I hadn't thought of her as being.. normal. Wanting… I guess.. it must be kinda lonely. I mean…. I know…" He looks at the other two. "We'd all be totally supportive..?" Two stunned nods.
I nod. "Maybe you should say something."
"Oh, I couldn't."
I don't know... They've been trolled before..."Or drop her an anonymous note, or… Maybe have one of Shining Armour's friends send him a letter about his sister's relationship?"
A couple of reluctant nods. Well, if that doesn't convince them that I need to be shot with the Elements of Harmony…
Now why would a fine, upstanding stallion need to know that?"Are you ready to order drinks, sirs and madam?"
I turn my neck and smile at the waiter. "Oh, yes. Sarsaparilla for me, please. Oh." I turn back to my dinner companions. "Canterlot police and palace guards are separate organisations, right?"
Yes... I feel the Troll rising... Equestria is going to be very confused soon...Batmare nods. "Separate commands, yeah. Why?"
"Oh." My smile grows. "No reason."
And this is the part where I laughed out loud.The unicorn unsteadily levitates his menu up in front of his face. "I wonder if they have an alcohol licence? I hope they have an alcohol licence."
