Ah man, this is exactly how I feel after my first coffee of the morning… for all of about 15 seconds :) Nice work!
Even without understanding the reference, I still had a great time with this.
As somebody with a penchant of latching onto too many descriptors, I try to be forgiving of similar stories. This might have had a few distracting aspects, but those were far outweighed by the good those descriptors provided.
Overall, a great time 👍
UHMMMM ACKSHULLY, alpha is followed by bravo in the NATO phonetic alphabet!
Jokes aside, I think the story focuses a bit too much on describing and detailing the scene for how little page space is allotted. The sheer detailing of the tech reminds me of the Half Life HEV suit. It's nice to see some dynamics with other factions, but I do think it focused a bit too narrowly on the details that are ultimately not that important.
I loved the turn. Excellent use of the theme and a fun tone change that wasn't abrupt.
Ha, I really enjoyed this one. From the smashing of poor Brangon's expectations, to the the battle-cry at the end, I was hooked. As a child of the '80s, I appreciated this.
well the crossed rifles mark Brangon’s generation 😉
As someone who lived through the "Real American Hero" episodes on TV, I can appreciate the reference. Stims, baby!!
LOL yeah gotta love the classic Sunbow era, and thankful to say even my twins got the reference without being explained too 🤣
This was fun to read, I love the beginning sequence!
Thanks and glad you enjoyed it, it was fun to write in a way I had not expected.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Dude, that’s lit. Very fun read.
Thanks a lot, I know it was a bit silly and not at all what I intended to write originally, but there were these comments on the discord channel that set a seed and so here we go
