Sleeping with the Girls - paladindythe - 03-21-2010
I'm looking forward to seeing where the author is taking this one. I'm impressed with how he can turn simple situations into good stories like he is. If he's not going anywhere, yeah it'll stall hard, but I think he has a few things in mind. He's even telegraphed a few of them.

Personally, I'm hoping it'll get to be more "jumping back and forth between several different places" and not "jump to one place after another after another." The panicked trying to explain what's going on (and not get beat up) is going to get old pretty quickly. I'd rather see more development of the interactions that are already taking place.
(I think I might also take issue with some of his ideas on SI fic in general, but... *shrug* )

I'm almost suspecting that Washuu will keep everyone connected--after all he's leaving breadcrumbs.
I agree that future episodes could be handled poorly, but I remain hopeful that it won't be so.

(Although that would be one way to end the SI - he wakes up between Kirika and Mireille, they wake up, he never wakes up again, and Noir makes another body disappear...)

I think he said something about it being some kind of loop. He'll wake up sooner or later at tenchi's home.

Judging from the author's commentary in the SB thread, he -will- be visiting the LH'verse again, so.

Personally, I'm waiting less for the first time he gets back to somewhere he's been before than for the first time he *isn't* the first one to wake up...

Chapter 10 was deeply deeply satisfying on so many many levels. I've got a new found admiration for the author now. ^.^

That was one of the best first person action sequences I've seen in quite some time.

Matrix Dragon Wrote:That was one of the best first person action sequences I've seen in quite some time.Yeah, it does a good job of giving the reader the feeling of 'what's going to happen next?' that comes in a ranged fight with limited view between someone that flies and someone that can move with a fair degree of stealth.

"Chapter 11 demonstrates an elegant method to provide information about the setting without boring exposition."
Or something like that...

Quote:"If we get out of this alive," I began, taking calming breaths toto top it off, one I missed on my first pass:
keep from snapping like I did earlier. "You are going to drag your ass-"
"Watch
your language," Sasami snapped in my ear.
"-Down to Ami's place,
ask her for every book on military tactics and strategy she can find,
and you are going to study those books until you can recite them
backwards and forwards… IN ENGLISH."

"So, Rei. How does it feel to know that the earthly avatar of one of the three most omnipotent beings in the multiverse thinks you're really really cool, and she wants to be just like you when she grows up?"
Omake! Omake! Omake! Omake! Omake!
Rei: "So, now what do we do?"
Hiro Protagonist: "Well, now that I've totally screwed the plot to smithereens, I guess we wait to see how close fanon got it right on Sailor Pluto and how long it's going to take her to show up and ream me out for... she's standing right behind me, isn't she?"
Rei: *nods*
Omake! Omake! Omake! Omake! Omake!
Narrator: Imagine Minako on the WashuuPhone, giving Tenchi romantic advice. Better yet, don't. And whatever you do, don't imagine Sasami innocently asking Rei, "Well, lots of people argue about it. Were you just playing hard-to-get with Yuuichiro, chasing after Mamoru, or hiding your true love for Usagi under it all?" Because there will be answers. Oh yes. There will be answers.
Omake! Omake! Omake! Omake! Omake!

Nice.
If I had any faith in my ability to write funny things, there would be an omake here about Washuu forcibly upgrading the Mercury Computer.
