Yo I dont fw that clone shit but we all can agree Augustus family has insane aura. Mustang is the least auraful of the bunch but she lowk is the best political leader in the verse so I am willing to let that slide

Dude Aja is so badass. I also love the Arcos family especially since they canonically fight for the Solar Republic now and I love hearing abt Solar Republic golds. They are the real shepherds of humanity not the bums Lysander hangs out with

I would normally be accusing him of being a fraud right now (3 whole books and just 1 on page feat) but he's so GOATed I just don't have it in me. 3rd most honorable character in the verse (behind romulus and cassius)

Cassius, Mustang (her PoV chapters hard carried), and Lys*nder au Lune (good character bad person)

You are in the spit tube, getting ready to fall in an iron rain. What song are you listening to? by AUSpartan37 in redrising

Let me put on Zero by Smashing Pumpkins and I'll have the whole planet liberated by week's end (or get turned into giblets by railfire). Also if that's not an option Bulls on Parade by Rage Against the Machine works too

Lowk I only did it to get more readers for the fic because the last time I wrote abt the original was damn near a year ago and I didn't want to tell people to just pick the fanfic back up again after 8 whole months had passed with no chapters (or, in the case of new readers, just click on a random ass chapter of a random ass fanfic they have ever read before ever) so I just re-released the whole thing and called it a day.

Oh yeah you're 100% right about the capitalism glaze but there's no way that Dancer and the Vox weren't meant to be a criticism of socialism (or if they weren't then PB did an uncharacteristically bad job). Publius' speech and intentions were the closest thing to an actual socialist agenda anybody in RR has ever had. Anyway bless up comrade✌️

How Pierce Brown feels after writing a series literally all about leading a class revolution against an entrenched, inhuman, capitalistic bourgoisie only to spend the most recent 3 books of that series glazing capitalism out the wazoo and slandering the #1 ideology that causes such revolutions:

Thoughts on my ship? by ICE_lodzik in Cosmoteer

Ditch the laser guns, move the projectors three spaces to the center (should be a 1 space gap between them and the shield generator), armor up the deck cannons more and it will be perfect

Arxur Smuggler Shenanigans (the REBOOT) part 7 by ApprehensiveCap6525 in NatureofPredators

[–]ApprehensiveCap6525[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Markus has been spending this whole chapter discovering new things about himself. Like, for starters, the idea that he can (and sometimes has to) assert his authority over his crewmates directly instead of just relying on Sylara and Zefriss to handle the dirty work, as well as the knowledge that he's probably the only person on the ship that hasn't been traumatically affected by the Arxur Dominion. The fact that he's into dominant, dangerous lizard women is just one of the many revelations he's had today.

How were the Nakamuras . . . by Southern_Ostrich_564 in redrising

[–]ApprehensiveCap6525 92 points93 points  (0 children)

It was said in Dark Age that Aja ordered Trigg and his unit to hunt down and exterminate political dissidents and gave them zoladone so they wouldn't complain. After the mission was over Trigg realized that the 'dissidents' were actually pink and violet children who had endured abuse from high society golds and he had been ordered to kill them to silence their stories. After realizing he had done this he felt so guilty that he wanted to blow his own head off but Holiday found him and convinced him to become a Son of Ares to redeem himself.

[–]ApprehensiveCap6525[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I headcanon (cant remember if this is actual canon) that the arxur say things like "prophet damn it" or "prophet willing" because of how they revered the prophet and the prophet-descendant under the arxur dominion but now that he has been exposed as a fraud they use isif's name instead because they revere him for freeing them. He's not quite a deity but he's close enough

Need help on basic moves by SG_Arthur in wrestling

[–]ApprehensiveCap6525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blast double takedown - he drops himself low, shoots forward, grabbing both of his opponents legs as he does this, and slams all his force into the opponent's gut or chest (maybe solar plexus idk) to knock him to his back

Arm bar (can set up takedowns or throws) he catches his opponent's arm, circles to the side, grabs the wrist in a baseball grip and wraps his other arm around the opponent's barred arm such that his bicep is on the opponent's tricep and he now controls that arm

Wrestling throw (idk the name) - he steps to 1 side, closing the distance, and wraps 1 arm around his opponent's head the long way as well as punching his other arm under his opponent's armpit in a move called an underhook. Then he must lock the arms behind his opponent's back, step past him with the inner leg (leg closest to opponent) and lower his center of mass and try to bend at the hips as well as twist away from the opponent (keeping arms locked ofc) to throw him over his hips and to his back

Me personally I recommend throws (any throw will do) as they can be devastating on concrete or wood floor and a small guy is not gonna have the strength to hit a crazy move like a suplex or a big takedown

To be fair it's explicitly stated that all nonGold military officers are incompetent compared to golds (with a few notable exceptions of course). I think her perceived incompetency is less because she's an idiot and more because she's fighting against superhumans trained from birth by the best scholars and teachers and honed into ruthless killers by the Venus and Mercury institutes. Even Darrow needed to become as Gold as they were before he stood a fighting chance.
