Oh no, I have no clue what this story is anymore, I dropped it months ago.
it appears that when I made that comment I had forgotten critical information
No, not capitalist industrial revolution, pure collectivistic attitude means that consumer goods are produced to increase quality of life, as that increases productivity in any species that likes creature comforts, as it reduces stress that detracts from motivation and efficiency. Also the more wealth made means the more able to be spent on investing and developing other areas. There is no capitalism, as nobody owns the means of production, only small areas of private ownership to satisfy needs and desires of the species that want that. But critically the basis always ends up at producing to expand at the fastest rate while taking care of everyone, whether enforced by sleep Stasi or consumer goods being smithing training.
Colony became so powerful they are cosmopolitan in the extreme
DEATH TO THE IMPERIALIST INVADERS! GLORY TO THE NEW RACES, TO THE MOTHER TREE AND COLONY!
Wasn't she missing a leg before?
No, but I do want Marigold or Kat's ability. I'd love dismemberment play if it was safe and consensual, albeit not sane. Sometimes I wish Lily just got used to it, so we could have Kat do more body horror and gore, which I guess is why I love Marigold so much is her eagerness.
Not only is this chapter fine, it satisfies a great need I have of reading how q character explains the events that happens to them, which shows a lot about the character, the subtle differences, where they start, the language used, etc. Sure if you didn't do any of that itd'dbe boring, but this is distinctly Lily's telling, and not just because of the point of view.
Oh she has fallen hard for her!
Kress keeping his snarky but overall being reasonable, drug-fueled character development!
Nah, meta joke about being "thirsty"
Marigold is gonna be so good at emotions and considering others, she comes from a healthy family and while being a pervert, is also extremely keen on consent (although pushing the line many cases) and communication.
More than that, she's probably prevented and reduced the pain of childhood traumas greatly.
Wait, pressure calmed her down? that's like, one of the major relaxing things for ADHD and Autism, poor girl was melting down constantly!
The characterization is absolutely amazing here. really captured conversation into words.
