Nice cameo from Gigan, nice twist on who the villain was.

I'd like a sequel.

I sure would like to.

Well, I sure din't see that coming.

What is it with people habing to end stories with title drops, though?

Yeah, I'd totally be up for a sequel though i request for Gigan to have a major role next time instead of being relegated to cameos.

I'll admit to not seeing Humdrum coming, nice surprise there.

And i like the fight scenes though they can be a bit too chaotic to follow at times.

Now that you're done cowering under the shadows of vengeance, perhaps we can finally make a journey to a primeval land in Antarctica, or watch the consequences of two worlds colliding in Marvel vs. Godzilla!

Maybe you're close to finally uploading the review for part 2? :trollestia:

That was a fine story, we'll done.

glad you enjoyed it!

I like to think I played on inverting the Humdrum/Mane-iac dynamic from the show. He was an underrated hero, and here, and underrated villain. Plus tie him into the Malice Mares for later purposes.

I was hoping the Humdrum reveal would surprise people. :twilightsmile:
I just though the title drop at that moment was a perfect fit. I know what you mean though, but it's a common trope because it works.

Gigan would definitely appear in sequels, and there are plans for him.

Nobody expected Humdrum, hoped you like the "Baby Dragon" bit.

Sorry to hear the fighting was tough to follow, I tried to make it simple. But when Mica has a dozen more limbs to hit you with, it might get a little crazy.

No further update on TLP since last noted. Worlds Collide part 17 is in Tarb's hands currently, waiting to hear back on that, I think you guy'll really enjoy this chapter. The review for 38b is still a thing, but my god is it tough going.

Well thanks for thinking well of it enough to let me know!

Well if you want to hear some interesting tidbits, a Golden Eagle landed on a lamppost outside my window the other day which is actually the first time I've ever seen an eagle in person so to speak though it was a surprisingly still and quiet individual, and was probably owned considering i saw a "link" of some sorts around its foot.

Second tidbit is that i finally got around to watching Rainbow Rocks and noticed that whenever the Sirens sing their hypnotic songs, they tend to do some form of slow, fluid dancing that seems borderline sensual at times in tandem with it.

It makes me wonder if dancing is also a component of the Sirens' magic?

And given the part in chapter 38A of The Bridge where Electra explains that regular Mermares use song to communicate their sexual desire to a receptive partner, and Sirens are essentially creatures of seduction using song to enthrall their victims along with their dancing...

It makes me wonder if a Siren is the Mermare equivalent of a Succubus?

Me and Tarbtano have discussed several sequel options. And I think Gigan would be in the sequel, though he might not be as prominent a figure as he was in the Christmas chapter.

Still waiting on that sequel

I'll admit I didn't know this existed until about last week. I just got really lucky and it popped up. And I've been wanting a sequel to the Christmas special ever since I read it for the first time a few years ago. And I really liked it I'm really looking forward to another one if you're able to. Mane-iac, M-Gigan, and Shadowbolt. I really hope to see them get to fight crime as a team someday. And I want to do a shout out to Steven Langoud. I'm a big fan of the Humanity's Stand.
