Spirit Armor posted:[Ogami] And this is where I lost it for some reason. And why did you have to write that last sentence as if she's into younger guys? While yes it pales in comparison to the stock-loli romance. But still. And Im trying to remember, in which book did Cain pull something like that? I almost thought it was one of the commanding officers who did it and not Cain. Such a shame that Ogami wasnt more like Ciaphas.

I just had a lovely past few days at work, and am now caught up. Truly you are the solution to world peace. Just reading these updates makes me giggle with sadistic glee. And now, I'm eagerly awaiting for the evil teddy bear to steal the show! Or kill Ogami, whichever gets a bigger laugh.

Spirit Armor posted:- Deputy Commander Ayame Fujieda leads, Thank you so much for this. ^^^ I'm in tears and stitches simultaneously throughout this entire update. But when that reference specifically registered for me it was pure joy. Just...thanks so much. And glad to see the Crazy Train make an appearance. Don't get me wrong, the blimp is kickin' rad too, but there's something about mecha-deployment via locomotive that's just so . Wonderfully hilarious update there, Spirit Armor. Top notch!

I'm pretty sure spiritual power suppressants haven't been invented yet, for one thing. If they'd invented spiritual power suppressants, I think a whole lot of Sakura Wars' problems would be resolved pretty quickly. Why bother fighting the demon lords mano-a-mano when you could just have a bunch of snipers shoot them full of suppressants? Heck, why bother putting up with Maria's emo and Iris's KYA HA HA HA at all if you could just do the same to THEM? ... and then I realized that this would turn Sakura Wars into X-Men 3.

The more I think about it, the more it is clear that, as the most vindictive, scheming, kiniving, seething evil force on the planet, not 10 year old should be able to level blocks with their thought alone. It's probably best to put her down. You'd THINK that'd be the best course of action, but there's also the fact that people with enough spiritual power to move steam-powered spirit armor are rare enough as it IS.

Spirit Armor posted:1) For some reason, I'm liking the term MIND MUSCLES. With the way you've exaggerated the portrayal of Sakura from "occasional jealousy" into "psychotically-obsessed stalker", I can see that comparison. At least, I assume a lot of that is comedic exaggeration. (Though Iris's destructive capabilities were only slightly exaggerated, so who knows?)

Almost forgot about them.) [Ogami] (Well, I've already written out another copy of my will, I've already said my prayers, and I'm just about finished crying into my coffee and feeling sorry for myself...

You're a teddy bear, you don't even have any fingers? ---- [Ogami] Oooh. [Ogami] I GUESS so. I mean, after all the poo poo I've been through, the freaking floating teddy bear coming alive and is sending brain waves into my computer doesn't seem all that farfetched anymore. [Ogami] ... come to think of it, why ARE you so talkative all of a sudden? [Ogami] Ha ha ha. Oh, is THAT it? Tha-- [Ogami] MY SOUL!? YOU ATE MY loving SOUL!? [Ogami] You can't just EAT part of someone's soul!! If I don't have ALL of my soul, where will I go after I die!? [Ogami] GIVE IT BACK!! ---- [Ogami] ... [Ogami] So she's a cheesecake?

Because it-- ---- ---- [Ogami] ... okay, I'm not going to make any comments about the "corrupted" part, OR about the whole "cramming souls into stuffed animals" thing, but... "destabilized"? [Ogami] ... ya lost me. ---- ---- ---- [Ogami] ... so she's the incarnation of evil BECAUSE I've been fearing her, except when she was acting perfectly normal during those times when I... wasn't fearing her? Man, what the hell. [Ogami] -- wait, what am I supposed to do? Suddenly stop fearing her!? She's about to go on a rampage, and you're telling me this NOW? ---- [Ogami] Wha-- Jean-Paul?

It seems that while Iris has the crazy Lovecraftian mind powers, Ogami is sort of a psychic Iris puppetmaster subconsciously, and I honestly can't decide what is more dangerous: crazy vengeful Iris with her mental death beams, or remarkably unstable Ogami indirectly controlling Iris and said mental death beams.

EVERYBODY has a measure of control over Iris's state of mind, so it's not ALL Ogami's fault. It's just MOSTLY his fault because she's so stuck on him.
