Wow. That was... explosive. I'm not surprised this chapter took so long; very high quality work.

Neela is currently on Vacation AFAIK grumble grumble but i do the the next chapter will likely be done much fast as it's less epic in scope. Two weeks is what i think she said and knowing a little more about what's coming (not too much mind you ) she's definitely excited about the upcoming chapters.
This has been the best chapter yet, and there's still half a story to goOriginally posted by Apostle's Message ReduxShepard understood.

Miranda had regaled him with stories of how horrible 20th century Earth sounded in her history lessons and it made him leery. "I agree, god knows what would happen if Grunt got loose."

Short update! Yes, I'm on vacation, and mostly out of wireless range, so responses won't be as quick. I'm working on the next chapters, though! I'm hoping to have at least two of them done by the time I get back in early August.
Originally posted by Rasunda View PostOh yes, this was a very good chapter. But I must ask, will Daedalus always take that much damage, before it falls back? It would be an extremely bad tactic.. But it's good, very good. Lot's of potential in this story, you just need to speed up the chapter production..
As for chapter production... I'm trying to use my vacation to get ahead on the next chapters, since I'm starting my Master's degree this autumn and will in all likelihood be even more busier than normal... That should really be good news, because when I'm stressed out about school work, I tend to write more fanfiction... But no promises.
As a teaser, the next arc is gonna be pretty awesome IMO. Lots of subterfuge, IOA bashing and John/Sam moments. Just my cup of tea.

All i can say is. "Holy ****!" I wasn't sure what neela had in mind for after that EPIC chapter 10, but she's outdone herself here Utterly awesome I don't think it'll be long for the next chapterOriginally posted by Apostle's Message ReduxShepard understood.

New chapter is up!
ELEVEN: "I give up."
Banner
It is the last of several final blows. Sam's disappeared and John's trying to figure out what's happened. He's not liking what he sees.
Prompt: a time to weep
Enjoy! This chapter is a direct follow-up to the last one, and it's marking the start of the next arc - which'll deal with some of the issues established in this chapter. As for the next chapter - it's in the works, and I'm probably about halfway finished. Should be up sometime in mid-August."If I should die, think only this of me: / That there's some corner of a foreign field / That is forever [Earth]."

Awesome new chapter And yes, Coolidge was overdue for a good beating. Love the double cliffhanger- the obvious one in the last scene and the subtle one in the IOA scheming storyline.

Neela's come up with a great story, there's still so much left to happen And yes, Coolidge totally needed a beating like that The 'diagram' Sam gave John was hinted to many many chapters agoOriginally posted by Apostle's Message ReduxShepard understood.

The next chapter is coming, for those who're wondering. I've been caught up in some busy start-of-term stuff, but I should be able to load up the chapter before the end of the month. I'm taking off in a new direction in this next chapter, so I'm giving it a little extra thought. The healing process is about to begin for a lot of the character, and given what I've put them through, I don't wanna be OCC."If I should die, think only this of me: / That there's some corner of a foreign field / That is forever [Earth]."
