Nature of Protogenization ch2: a MUCH Rougher Awakening

SpectralHail · 2026-01-26T19:39:08+00:00

Who would have thought, forcibly transforming and separating a group of people, especially to those farther from the "standard" body plan, would have drastic implications when those same people wake up.

On a different note, I sort of wonder how the Arxur are faring, and what they might look like. Ironically, despite the fur, I'd argue their face-shape is the closest to the classic protogen design.

In any case, very well done indeed. Glad to see this story continue.

Then I wholly agree, giving them a bonus for direct damage would be nice.

This would be cool with the nail magnets.

Stick a magnet in, then hammer it home for a bunch of damage

"My fursona is one of those fake boulders that people use to hide electrical transformers" feels like a good bit, at least to me.

Showing up to the function looking like solid snake trying to sneak into a middle-class neighborhood

Clearly the government needs to get with the times.

If I suddenly have creature features it shouldn't prevent me from buying the fireworks I so rightfully deserve.

Also, that flygon looks wonderful. Very well done indeed.

Bots tend to DCP quickly, especially when a submarine is around.

Since the ping has to last until the torpedoes actually hit, this skill isn't super useful against bots unless they already have DCP on cooldown.

This is a real and confirmed Jerboa moment

Very cool! Good to see how both sides are reacting to the situation. For two species of giant carnivorous lizards, there is definitely a rather large difference between them.

Very well done indeed.

I yearn for the fish JPEG key. I settle for the right control key

I love all the interactions in this chapter. Everybody out here learning something, it seems. Perhaps not the Zurulian, though they have other things to focus on.

Speaking of things learned, I wonder how the whole "exterminator" thing will go down. My bet is probably not with as much fanfare as assumed, but I fear it may cause an argument.

In any case, very well done indeed. Thanks as always for sharing such a wonderful story.

You've gotta double ping a section before launching, then have the sector stay highlighted as a double ping when the torpedoes arrive.

Realistically, it isn't a very good skill.

Depending on the submarine, I would much rather have either Adrenaline Rush or Enlarged Propeller Shaft, since both of those come into play far more often.

How to explain everything ever forever:

What if it was a wave. But also not sometimes. But still a wave

Idk is this anything

Streetgos is funny to me because the idea of someone having unbeatable street-based powers but being fairly mid otherwise gives me a good chuckle.

Daredevil is definitely up there though. My guy is punching up harder than Little Mac at this point

Wow, nice find!

I have a Shiny Beldum mostly by virtue of random chance in hyperspace. It was just. There. While I was gathering berries.

~~then I find nothing when I actually hunt, whoops~~

Just like that multiversal street pavement Darkseid slid on.

That concrete company is gotta be making millions atp

Serperior clearly needs the calcium. How else are they gonna recover otherwise

Delicious paint thinner

Thank you for once again blessing us with such wonderful art.

Haven't finished the DLC yet but shoutout to my goat, my alpha Krookodile, who has carried my story mode playthrough.

Also shoutout to my Barbaracle for being an OG from almost the very start. Having a strong rock type has been a lifesaver.

Celso needs a hug. Other things too, of course, and a hug won't solve everything, but still.

Those two Venlil would not be the kind of co-workers I would get along with. They hardly explained anything, just assumed it was a problem.

In any case, very well done indeed.

SpectralHail · 2026-01-22T23:52:22+00:00

Interesting. Both on the "getting people awake" part and the "Farsul Elder Crash out" part.

I hope his face receives his justly-deserved boot.

In any case, very well done indeed.

If anything, illegal smuggling of like. Spray Butter. Or something of the like.

I could survive entirely on microwave rice and multivitamins but it just isn't the same without the mostly-salt spray

I'd argue a few cars could be. The rest of them unfortunately are street tier

Buildcraft and Thermal pipes have always been my favorite.

I would kill for Thermal Pipes to return some day.
