Semper ad Meliora - Chinese Federation Invasion P1
Added 2022-08-16 10:49:22 +0000 UTCWell, at least this came out easier than usual. Hopefully that's a good omen for writing this week and I'll be able to finish off that chapter of Petal to the Metal that's bothering me soon.
As always, thank you for your continued support!

It is either some super prototype which was going to the frontlines or a VIP which is gonna make things very interesting in the most chinese form of the word. Nevertheless what I really want is an update regarding our pet mad scientist. When are we gonna get some Jaeger love?

Which will likely allow for that high roll to not run into hard limits so easily, when compared to just making a radio call.

The theme of this quest really seems to be "Lelouch turns his low stats into his high stats".

2022-08-16 18:13:01 +0000 UTCI absolutely love this cameo, at the very least no matter how good or badly this turns out it’s still better than being eaten by nazi vampires. Arguably pip doesn’t make it out to badly…. I love how we go from a recluse to the madness at the conference then somehow the conference wasn’t mad enough so we stepped up our game to do this. Honestly even if everything goes perfectly I can see Charles telling us A) that he hopes that any children we have turn out just like us, B) he sics mom on us so we don’t do anything to crazy. Or he would but honestly thst would just make things worse.

2022-08-16 16:01:43 +0000 UTCWe actually beat the dice? Had to use a reroll sure but we actually managed to suceed? I really want to see another POV from Charles after this but wow...

2022-08-16 15:17:20 +0000 UTCYou can almost cut the tension in the air, with how much this update has of it in the narrative. Very nice writing, Slayer Anderson. Also: SPOILER WARNING BELOW THIS! ...Okay, I think I'm clear from spoiling this for anyone who for some reason might accidentally somehow check the comments before the update. Lelouch, you did it again! Hype, hype, hype!
