Nexus Event - Chapter 3
🕑 Added 2023-07-06 12:38:49 +0000 UTCResults from the July Favoritism Poll are as follows:
First Place: Industrious (no surprise)
Second Place: Winning Peace
Third Place: The New Ron
Fourth Place: Where Your God Is
Fifth Place: Speedrun
I can post exact tallies of votes, but it's pretty apparent to most people on both Patreon & SubscribeStar as to how things fell out this month.
Anyway! Now that the vote's done, expect a chapter of Industrious in a day or two as I've already begun working on it. This was almost done, though, so I figured I'd toss it out in the meantime.
Hope all my fellow Americans had a pleasant Independence Day (and a shoutout to Canada Day this previous weekend as well), hopefully everyone still has all their fingers after fireworks.
Thank you once again for your support, I literally couldn't do this without all of your help. Rock on and stay awesome.

Ha, I was right. Read that line and immediately thought 'Carter!?'. You're good people.

Except for the fact that the 'send in a small team with minimal support to stop a world-ending invasion' has explicitly failed multiple times on this occasion. That's why they're putting someone with knowledge of the setting in charge instead of someone who specializes in these tactics.

Carter's overqualified to the point that I'm confused (in universe) that she's not the Agent, if she's available. handle 4 separate first contacts, then deal with a world ending invasion with a small team and minimal support? It's like she never left SG.

I suppose his overall strategy is less uplift and more along the lines containment and response then. Cassandra and Kitty for covert operations, Magik and Willow for heavy duty magic and slaying (both a freaking powerful mages after all), while the rest is his "support the direct action specialists" team. Samantha is probably ideal for all roles given her experience with Stargates many missions. Surprised he didn't go for an actual face/bard/charisma powerhouse then. If his plan involves locals cooperating I would expect a companion solely dedicated to that.

Good guesses on everyone except Traynor. It’s actually Samantha Carter, formerly of SG-1. Everything else is on-point, though.

Harry Potter canon can eat an entire bag of dicks.

Cassandra is Cassandra Cain. Kitty is Kitty Pride. Samantha is probably Samantha Traynor, from ME3, and will be presumably playing mission control. Do note that depending on how many levels of perk sharing he took, he could be giving everyone magical and technological brilliance. so overall it looks like: Logistics: Pepper Potts Mission Control/ Tactical Command: Samantha Traynor Intel Analysis & Interrogation: Tattletale Medical: Mercy Heavy Magic: Illyana and Willow. Will also be probably responsible for spreading a whole bunch of anti-demon magic that they're both familiar with to the group, at minimum; entire wizarding world if possible. Spooks: Cassandra and Kitty.

I just want to point out that receiving your letter “on your eleventh birthday” isn’t canon. Harry was getting them for a week before his birthday, and if hermione had gotten hers on her birthday it would mean she knew about magic for almost a full year before going to hogwarts

Fixed. Someone was clumsy with their suggestion powers.

Having a problem actually reading it. It comes with a line crossing over all the text. Is this normal or something related to google drive ? Edit: Found the issue. Aparently the file is on "suggestion" mode when you open it. Just got to change that... Edit 2: And now that I read it I am wondering what is the plan here. Sarah is obviously his Intel chief, Angela his Medic and Pepper somekind of liason with the modern muggle world ? Illyana and Willow are his magical heavy hitters but I don't really see what is the deal with Cassandra, Kitty, and Samantha ? Those names don't ring any bells for actually useful long term powers and skill sets. This does not seems like a team focused on any kind of uplift or preparations for the invasions to come so what is the deal here ?
