yes those are scores and cracks forming in the transparisteel viewport that the cat is hanging from, of course the big question is how upset is Megarea.... if she is not very happy she might engage the vibro-claws, on her front feet, and open the window up on the new cut lines she just put into it. On the other hand if she is feeling nice she can project a SI or barrier shield to stabilize the viewport until it is fixed.

Yes, but our technically being part of Mauve Squadron is basically how we in the Fourth Wall Gang get access to Variable Weapons. Besides, who else but Rocket could add Shock Cannon mode to a VA-6's Main Guns.

sort of.

Excalibur was fighting on its own like a "dancing" or winged blade where it acts like its own wielder.

and the "librarian" was fencing against it as Excalibur tried to teach him how to defend himself.

Dairugger XV wrote:Emerson struggled to keep his horror and rage out of his face, “Get the GN-X’s and the Spartases back here now! We need them back at peak operational efficiency 10 minutes ago!”

Emerson could only growl as he watched as the 9 new Evangelions ripped into his forces. They appeared just as the angel was being destroyed. He had hoped they were sent when NERV’s EVAs did not deploy, but they started attacking the joint forces nearly instantly. The surprise of it cost more than a few pilots their lives. Fortunately the ASC forces were able to get their acts together and start evading the Angels. The fire the produced had little to no effect on the white beasts, and the weapons they had that could pierce the AT Field needed resupply desperately, having completely spent themselves against the angel.

“I warned you about the dummy plug system and the possibility of more EVA pilots at other NERV facilities.”

Emerson shot Dana an angry glare, “The cadet will learn proper military discipline, now get out of here and someone confine her somewhere until I say otherwise.”

As much as Emerson was angry over Dana’s complete lack of military bearing and deference to a superior officer, he had to admit she wasn’t wrong. Her plan did account for something like this happening, but it would be career suicide to just accept a cadet’s plan, without more experienced heads making changes. Moreover, the UN and UEG both had political demands of their own that had to be tended to, including limiting the number of forces brought over to this world. Curiously, both the Union and AEU had their tactical forecasters actually objected to the changes made to the plan. The Union’s objections was because they no doubt wanted the political leverage from having a rising military star’s plan be the one that won the day. The AEU actually objected because their own forecasters had more subtle changes in mind, particularly this Kati Mannequin.
Emerson let a sigh escape his lips. For once, he wished he had listened to those that were his juniors instead of his experience and training told him was right. After all, this was just as much undiscovered territory as when the Zentraedi first attacked; assuming the tried and true would continue to work was stupid in hindsight.
**************************************************
Sergei Smirnov pulled himself from the wrecked GN-X and was grateful his subordinates had gotten clear when these beasts had shown up. He was getting fairly old for a MS pilot and should probably move himself to a more office position, but he still had some good years in him left. A bright flash appeared to his left and he was certain one of these things just unleashed a blast that was going to kill him. Instead, 16 people and three cats stood where the light was. The group just as confused as Sergei.

Sergei tried to warn them to get out the way when one of the EVAs swiped the area with a its lance. Most of the people escaped unharmed but one blonde woman caught the very tip of the lance and was beginning to bleed out. Sergei got up and ran over, “This Jinx Commander to Doppleganger, we need medevac support on my location now.”

As Sergei radioed in the request a young girl with blue hair ran over and put her hands over the blonde woman, there was a mist forming between the girl’s hands and the woman’s body, “Hang in there Lucy, I’ll heal you!”

Sergei could not believe what was happening before his eyes, everyone in that group seemed beyond angry at that point. The old man of the group stepped forward, “I will not forgive some monster who has harmed one of my children,” and with those words went from under a meter tall to the same size as the white EVAs, without so much as a tearing his clothes. He got in a fist fight with the EVA that made the slash when the other EVAs started ganging up on the old man.

The rest of the group that appeared in that burst of light, except the cats, moved into action. The red-headed woman changed her armor in a flash of light into some yellow armor with huge shoulder pauldrons and a spear. She hurled the spear at one of the attacking EVAs, which then ignited rocket boosters and flew faster and further than the already superhuman strength she hurled it with in the first place. The spear made contact with the AT Field and forced it into the visible spectrum, before tearing through it and wounding the EVA.

Sergei’s jaw dropped. There was no rational explanation for what he just saw. It didn’t help matters at all when he saw the pink-haired man combust into flames with absolutely no visible damage to himself and start punching one of the EVAs, and it worked. Sergei couldn’t keep himself from exclaiming, “That man is on fire!”

The blue cat remarked, “Aye, sir!”

Sergei could feel his eyes bulging, “That cat talked!”

The white cat looked at Sergei, “We’re not cats, we are exceeds.”

Sergei tried to calm himself, “How are they damaging the Evangelions?”

The black cat answered, “They are Fiore’s strongest wizard guild.”

Sergei’s eye twitched, “Wizards? As in magic?”

The blue one cried out again, “Aye, sir!”

Sergei screamed, “Magic doesn’t exist!”

All three exceeds looked at Sergei like he was an idiot, but only the blue one said anything, “And I thought Natsu was stupid.”

The black exceed turned his gaze back to the battle, “Still their attacks aren’t doing that much damage.”

Sergei shook himself from the shock and decided he’d deal with the world-view shattering revelation later, “They have to take out the cores to finish them, otherwise they will just keep regenerating.”

The black one suddenly grew to a full head taller than Sergei and with a build that a real human could only achieve with heavy steroid use, “I will let our friends know. Stay here and guard Wendy and Lucy.”

The black one entered the fray and it wasn’t long before the group started actually coordinating their attacks, exposing and destroying the cores. Sergei did his best to ignore the obvious violations of physics.
**********************************************************************
Lorenz and Emerson both had the same headache, and they were simultaneously wondering if they had consumed a hallucinogen recently. The mass production EVAs had been defeated by a group of random interlopers, on foot, doing things that clearly violated all sense of reality. The nail in both their proverbial coffins was when the old giant unleashed what instruments registered as a truly massive nuclear-scale attack that engulfed the battlefield, but only obliterated the MP EVAs. One did not like the prospect of a jail cell, and one did not like the prospect of putting this into a report.

Waiting for the ol' brain to recharge; we basically charged through 100 pages of stuff. It's easy to PROPOSE crossovers, it's rather more time-consuming and exhausting to flesh them out meaningfully. ;) :sleep:

Writing is easy; you simply set a blank piece of paper in front of yourself, take up a writing instrument of choice in your hand, and then stare at the paper until the blood starts beading out on your forehead.

Alecia initiates a com, as she is running to yank it away from Loki. Sorry Loki that is a class 8 infraction for you to have any Tesseract, or Tesseract powered devices, Odins Orders.
She tosses him a different glowing cube "here" you can have that. its "fun" I have managed to complete it in 82 minutes...

Loki "Huh, Whats this?" as he notices it looks like a 17x17x17 "rubiks cube variant"
http://jokoliauw.blogspot.com/2013/09/v ... k.html?m=1

Alecia starts jogging away wondering if she should have told him it was the "challenge mode, anti magic version" ... she shrugs and thinks "Naaa"

A couple days later when she is "feasting" with Thor, he asked how she distracted Loki from the Tesseract and she mentions she gave Loki her Old Challenge cube.

Megarea looks up with a concerned expression and asks "Alecia did you turn off the mk 8 challenge feature before you gave it to Loki?"

Alecia looks at Megarea and says "What Mk 8 challenge feature?!"

Megarea whispers "Oops" ... "Um I noticed you were solving it faster and faster so I added a 'move timer' feature to make it more challenging... Assuming Loki makes about 5 moves per second and it was set at challenge mode umm..."

Alecia says "I was up to mode 14 and I don't think I reset it..."

Megarea says "He should be triggering the feature right about...."

The Door Slams open and Loki comes in looking battered and scorched and yells "You didn't tell me the cube had a BOMB inside it!!!!!"

Alecia gets up and says in a dangerous tone "Megarea!"

Megarea takes off running them Poofs (as she Dimensional teleports away)
