New Mission by HerrWozzeck on 2011-08-01 15:35:00 UTC Reply

In which Florestan and Eusabius break up an obvious crossover crack ship between Mass Effect and Dead Space.

Crazy times occur from there.

So... we have three minis from todays mission, as follows:

Dead Space continuum:

saac

Mass Effect continuum:

Ilusive Man
Kee'lah

And we also have a non-canon little disease/genetic treatment:

Genophase

I hope you guys enjoyed!

Well done! by PoorCynic on 2011-08-02 02:27:00 UTC Reply

I have to admit, I wasn't too sure about your agents at first. But they're definitely growing on me. Not only that, but the mission was both tremendously entertaining and very well put together.

The one qualm I have is that there are occasional stretches where your agents just stand around and complain. Once or twice is okay, but it started to wear on me the further along things went. Maybe try to spice things up with a bit more banter next time.

Other than that, this was great. Kudos!

I always like more helpful feedback!

I'll try to make sure I keep the complaining to a minimum, then. Thanks for being honest about that.

Thanks for the feedback!

I must immediately brainstorm as to exactly what genophase does. We got geno- for the genome, obviously, and -phase as in a distinctive form. Maybe it liquefies your genome? That sounds pretty fatal, though. Not something that there could be a cure for. Anyone want to chime in with ideas?

Also, what's going to happen to the hybrid? Will he/she/it/whatever be available as an NPC in the Nursery? What would a quarian/human hybrid look like, anyway?

...the genophage in the original ME continuum was a treatment that limited fertility rates among the krogan. So yeah...

As for the hybrid, I dunno. I think I'll put it up in the Nursery, so... we'll see.

And I don't know. It's tough to create things when you don't know what they look like. ;)

I know what the genophage is; I've played both games. I just thought it would be funnier to make up something based on the word.

Neat! by EileenAlphabet on 2011-08-01 20:39:00 UTC Reply

That was a stupid fic. I'm not a fan of crossoverships to begin with and this had all the worst traits of the species.

By the way, when I read the title and the ... um ... second title? What are these things called? Anyway, where it says 'In which romance is approached way too quickly' I thought there was going to be something about Maria. ^^

XD! Me too! by caddy-shack on 2011-08-01 22:43:00 UTC Reply

I did too! I'm glad people have read the missions! Thanks Eileen! ^_^

Great mission Herr! Especially with the bit about Florestan coming back and being all D:
I loved both DeadSpace games, even the first where Isaac was but a simple Survival Horror robot with no real characterization. So, good job on this!

*facepalms*

Yes, I read them and enjoyed them very much. Getting around to commenting on them must have slipped my mind. I distract more easily than a two-year old on double espresso.
Thanks both of you! by HerrWozzeck on 2011-08-02 06:25:00 UTC Reply

Yeah, the thing about Florestan and Maria is that with how quick they're going, they're at least not planning on jumping on each other in QUITE that way yet. So yeah...

Thanks! =D
