... actually, I don't really remember Manx and Shadow. I recognise the names, but don't recall anything about them. Well... good! Something new to read.
Random thoughts:
-Apparently long missions aren't a new thing. :-/
-Hah! PPC Trading Card Game namedrop! Awesome. ^_^ Though, uh: "Huinesoron created it on the Board. I submitted our pictures and stats." That's kind of strange to see, looking back. Ah, the old days...
-Good old 'Legolas Greenleaf'. I blame Galadriel for that one, it's hard to pin it on fanwriters when she so clearly uses it as a surname.
-“Manx. She’s a Suethor. Suethors are not normal. WE aren’t normal. We go into fanfictions and kill the characters, for Eru’s sake. How is anything remotely related to the PPC ‘normal’?” That feels kind of like a homage to the TOS line about "We're evil. Miss Cam is evil. This is just stupid." or whatever.
-Ahaha, she drank the Mirror of Galadriel. Suvians just aren't as dumb these days, it's a shame.
-Wow, half the mission is the 'things go wrong' part? You're right, we don't see the likes of that now.
-And then Manx gets beaten up. This is... violent.
-And Shadow somehow knows what's happening to her. I would be complaining quite a lot about this if the writer was active. (Who wrote them, anyway?)
-I like the scream-attack, though - which is good, since it's the lynchpin of the whole section.
-That was the longwindedest charge list I ever did read.
I don't think this was really my thing - the endless swearing kind of puts me off still - but I can see why people like it. Thumbs up!
