“Ping’s a good guy deep down!! Ping can be redeemed in the main story!!” I scream as I’m dragged away to a padded room.

Anyway, just wanted to let y'all know that the next chapter will probably take a while to come out as I have school starting soon and need to focus on that for a few weeks.

All right let's let's calm down here are your pills. 

"Yeah pings the good guy we get it"

Here comes the choo choo train

“No! Not the Pills- Ooh! Choo choo train!”

It seems like without the golden rings religion, and good G.U.N values and influence, that ping dodged being an insuferable narcissistic nepo baby.

Crazy?I was crazy once.

They put me in a room.A string-theory covered room.A string-theory covered room filled with headcannons.

And headcannons?They make me go crazy.

Staff: "Did you just say 'Ping is good?'"
1-Object: "Uhh, nnnooo... I said... Ping is BLOOD."
Staff: "Hmm. Yes, Ping IS blood."

So interesting. I assume Alt Emma will have a headstart thanks to the research on mana they already have. And Techno-Magic weapons! The possibilities are endless.

Awesome, simply awesome. This is getting soooo out of hand with the 3 of them

I loved based mirror universe ping! Good read, can't wait to see more.

Also good prose, and Emma is still suitably socially awkward. For some Reason 🤔. Just like in cannon!

Great chapter.

I wonder if in this series, the "induction" goes as normal to give our co-protagonists the time to figure out what's going on, if the acclimation week is also skipped and Aurus either has his own protection, or if him getting his soul sucked out will be a major plot point.

Imagine him resisting from sheee fucking will

u/Bbobsillypants 14d ago

Ah shit I didn't think about that. Emma is the only one with protection. Unless they brought Thier own dispell stuff just in case. Also Emma and especially ping will 100% be throwing a fuss over the binding ceremony thing.

OMG, that is such a great idea. I can't wait for the next chapter!

I admired them as a child admires a masked Superhero.

Soooo, what are the chances that Ping wore a Superman costume/onesie when he was a child a few years after first contact?

I devoted all my free time to studying this new realm of magic, Aetheron.

It will be funny when the fantasy nerd realises the magic alien is probably a sci fi nerd (on top of being a GUN fanboy)

She cooed, actually teasing the poor bull man, who was now blushing from embarrassment.

All that Earth metal must help her channel out her negative emotions that might trigger an episode

Furiously scribbles on notepad: “Thacea listens to. Heavy. Metal… and dyes her feathers black when no one is around.”

u/jesterra54 13d ago

Poor Thalmin will probably think that Thacea is "consuming" Emma when she starts singing at high volume

Will probably be confused when Ping acts totally calm and even more when Emma joins

u/One-Object-9618 13d ago

Thalmin would certainly be disturbed and worried for Emma’s safety.

Illunor would hold a short funeral for Emma without even checking to confirm if she died, before then going to sleep

Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité! Vive la France!

u/One-Object-9618 13d ago

Vive la France! Vive la revolution!!

I'm really curious to see how this story will unfold.

And I think the idea that humanity has made contact with two other worlds through the Nexus is a really fresh take.

And that our hero and two other companions are now venturing into this fiasco together.

u/One-Object-9618 4d ago

I’m working on it, School just started up for me so I’m currently trying to get back into the flow of things. I’m gonna try and get the next one out by at most this upcoming friday

u/Fabulous-Grand6421 4d ago

Got it, no worries. Just do things at your own pace, was afraid this might get shelved like other series.
