Ha, ha, ha... but seriously, what reason does Beryl truly have to react this way? do loroi have a concept of prudety?
If anything, the display of human typical greeting and their need of physical contact should have piqued her interest.

Not sure if anyone has asked this before (this thread is kinda large) but, how..unsettling is Jardin´s "lotai" to the nearby loroi, used as they are to being able to detect all sentient life around? is he like a robot/golem/zombie for them?

hi hi If Christianity can deal with having Easter be about a rabbit that hides chocolate eggs around in the grass, and Christmas be about a jolly old fat guy in a red suit flying around with magic reindeer, well, I get the feeling any discovery of aliens will probably lead to some silly and possibl...

PS: The Soians were run of the mill Ascendants in this regard, others are more benign, others are far worse and far more self serving.

How high would The Ethereal of X-Com register in the "Ascendant jerk-o-meter"?

Were the Soian trying to remade all life in the galaxy in their own image, one way or another? Was extinction the eventual fate ofertas all template species, whatever carried by violent means or not?

I guess Soian lifeforms, having been artificially engineered, carry far less garbage in their genetic code.

"So, are you telling me that world is filled with eager almost-loroi males, and that (lick lips) ice cream and chocolate food?"

I can imagine Earth, in time, will become a very popular tourist destination for Loroi

Telling her that Stillstorm has offered herself to discipline her wayward daughter, putting the brat under her "care" in the Tempest.
The Loroi equivalent of "I'm tellling your mom"

Soooo... when is Fragile Storm going to give Opalstorm the "good news"?

Besides the "bug war", human sci -fi has conceived other possible enemies, like A.I and robots or godlike eldritch abominations. I wonder what would Loroi think about Asimov or Lovecraft works. Did they even conceive the possibility of finding entities which would make the Soians look like toddlers ...

Interesting thing I looked up when the Loroi commented how Mass Drivers can hurt as much as as Loroi/Umiak AM/M torpedoes, if you get them onto the target. I just went and calculated some things like Mas Driver firepower. Converted into TNT.. ..well: At 16,000,000,000,000 Joules, 400 km/s and 200 k...

The divorce rates are climbing because many women demand perfection without offering perfection in return; no one can have their cake and eat it but for some reason the modern young woman has been convinced that she is a princess and must be treated like royalty at all times. This won't work at all...

@Tamri The family is not an outdated concept, in fact its by far the most stable pillar of any society; if the family unit disappears human society will inevitably collapse. The western family, especially the US family, is collapsing for two reasons: 1st: Divorce incentivization by the state. US wo...

Just me, or is Fragile Storm a bit too happy about her being the one giving Alex headaches for once?

I had a hard time accepting the possibility of human/loroi hybrids and since this story pretty much start by mentioning that I long put of reading it at all due to considering the whole thing non serious. Humans and loroi are biochemically incompatible and most like their genetics code are incompat...

Nobody is commenting about Stillstorm's possible reaction when she hears Alex has put her daughter under arrest? I can imagine her subordinates mustering all their courage to resist the instinct of hide in a corner of the Tempest , trembling in fear. Frankly, Opalstorm should thank her lucky stars,...

EXCELLENT! "The TYRANT'S LAMENT"~ "Oh WHY does not everyone understand the burdens that beset ME on all sides?!? Can they not see that all MY efforts are to enforce unyielding order in the face of their criminal laziness and mendacity?!? I must bear the toil and effort of beating them all into subm...

I have this nagging feeling that Opalstorm just succeeded in her mission, that is her real mission, not the one she was ordered to do. Stillstorm is hard but fair but Opalstorm is just an ass that probably should never have been promoted. How do you stop an undeserving rank climber without a proper...
