Re: Wind and Fire

I doubt that the adult caretakers are experienced in handling alien children. But, children can also make their own decisions. In this case, the attitude itself is important, and not the methods of education or something else. Yes, children have their own opinion. I can even suggest that Loroi chil...

Re: [Fan Fiction] Notes and discussion for "A sword that wields itself"

It was good, but I have exactly one question. What is the point in visual disguise if the weight and size characteristics, the EM picture and the engine handwriting have not changed? From a distance of a light hour, no optics will show you a detailed appearance of the ship, if it is not the Death St...

Re: Wind and Fire

Children, or at least Human ones, are highly aware of differences. Ben will be in a strange position, he is not too different to be recognized as an alien on the first glance, but still different enough to be perceived as an Outsider . Much depends on the position of adults. If adults themselves de...

Re: Wind and Fire

Certainly none of the Loroi children will know English. Ben know Trade, IIRC. Not good, but enough to talk. In case that's not enough, there's Cotton. 1. They will be confused by a telepathically mute, yet still similar being, and I doubt that they are very good in spoken Trade, not to mention Engl...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread

As far as I understand, the answer will be something like "average temperature in the hospital" at best. By the way, the need to touch every suspicious alien to find out the reasons for the negativity (especially in the occupied zone, where it is difficult to find someone WITHOUT negativity in the d...

Re: A Question Of Maneuverability

At the same time, since the main acceleration factor here is "virtual mass", deltaV is actually calculated not quite according to the formula, since the ratio of mass consumption to thrust-weight ratio should be non-linear.

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread

In fact, the "visible" range of light is based on the transparency of water and compounds based on it - i.e. the width of the visible range is determined by the transparency of the lens. There is practically no point in doing anything with photosensitive receptors without working with the lens. "Haz...

Oh yes, the really revealing healer clothes. :oops: That would be very healing indeed.

Maybe I should replay that again, it's been ages.
Take the HD remaster, in the latest versions the picture already looked very good, plus you don’t have to mess with the compatibility of the program and OS.

Re: Wind and Fire

Funny how in another fic, she decided to banish problematic civilian Loroi to the human worlds, and they ended becoming humanity's greatest assets against the Union under the surnane "Reforged". Regardless of Greywind's brilliance, I still believe she is underestimating both Ben's influence over he...

Translators problem

It is strange, but when trying to load any page of the site into the translator, it does not matter whether the forum or the main site, the translator replies that the page cannot be translated, although, more likely, he cannot see it for some reason. I did not find the reason for this selectivity, ...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread

My understanding is that, if the targeting system is accurate enough, a ship (or even several different ships) can combine the output of several small lasers by aiming at the same precise point, thus increasing damage and extending range. Judging by this article, it hardly makes sense to talk about...

Re: Loroi Women Versus Human Women... As Wives

I will say that this is a different and creative approach to the "human-looking" aliens trope in fiction. They were molded to look like us, that's all (and probably behave like us, since possession of a body type isn't very useful without the behavior patterns that go with it). Perhaps it was some ...

Re: Loroi Women Versus Human Women... As Wives

All this is interesting and correct, but there are several BUTs. Firstly, Loroi are not terrestrial organisms. Secondly, they are not a naturally developed species, but appeared as a result of a bioengineering project. This leads to a few tweaks to your bed sheet above: 1) The fact that Loroi blood...

In general, Jim is right. Psychotherapy is not related to medicine, at least not to the health sector. With a stretch, psychiatry is related to it, but only partially.
