Subject: What? The Eminence crew gets a symbol, and NASTY doesn't?

I mean, they were only in one story, and they never appeared again. The Eminence crew don't even really have any claim to fame, other than their leaders being three Overpowered!Sues who apparently "took out" Neyna, Rosie, and Dafydd offscreen, and occasionally ending stories by taking Sues out of their fics and into the starship instead of by killing them. It's certainly a hook for something to happen, but I wouldn't see them as being a more potent presence than the trans-dimensional fangirls with giant robots and plenty of opportunity for development of motive and exploration of methods. Plus, NASTY could serve as a set of Psycho Rangers to KittyEden's Sue Slayers, if they're still getting involved in this, as a permutation of the wild, semi-Suvian Squees that the Sue Slayers often fight.

I'm not sure where you got the idea that NASTY was only focused on one character, though, and the only reason that they were able to be fought back so easily(and it took considerably more than one person to do so, by the way) was because there weren't very many of them. Actually, their one confirmed appearance ends with Dann and WyldeHorse beating one of their robots and then Dann just leaving before anyone deals with the rest of them. It's just said that Dann had to help with cleaning up the broken robot's parts, and not even whether or not the fangirls fled after he knocked out the robot or anything to explain why the reinforcement NASTY troops just stopped being around. There's just not anything else there. From what we have, it looks as though the fangirls ran through the halls, the robot stayed back to beat up Dann, it was defeated, and Dann left before seeing how the rest of the fight would turn out. It's not really his affair, true, but that seems almost irresponsible.
