Vegans and vegetarians were canonically favored in the exchange program, because of the whole eating meat thing. It's a shame we don't get to see more human/venlil exchange partners.
I now accept this as a canon explenation for why Marcel was such a self righteously shit friend to Slanek.
Sounds like a good idea for a bonus chapter if you ask me!
Most people would agree with you seeing as that is what most nature of predators fanfiction is about, other members of the buddy program, because duh who wouldn't want a pet spacesheep, though from what I heard they tend to be pretty samey and mostly derivative, in the literal sense of the word.
I'm enjoying it so far but there really hasn't been a whole lot of progress yet. My main complaint is that it's currently telling two completely seperate stories that are taking place at the same time in two vastly different parts of the galaxy, so moving the plot forward is a little slow and a little disjointed.
Interesting. I'm not against a story telling two separate stories inside of it. Legend of the galactic heroes did that for almost half the series. I just hope sp15 found out how to pace out a story.
It starts off badly, but mostly because the sheer incompetence of the characters is staggering to the point of breaking immersion. The first contact squad are pathetically unprepared (not like they have generations of Federation training to base their contact procedure on) with one of them being genuinely detrimental to the entire mission, while the other is this 'smooth talker' who folds immediately in negotiations and gets a load of people killed through pure idiocy. Which would've been okay, if he was presented as anything other than a competent worker by SP. However, SP's hyping up of chapter 11 paid off, as it's when things begin to kick into gear.
Legit, Tyler is so fuckin dumb and clearly got to his position through nepotism that I've been referring to him as Hunter Biden when recounting his chapters to chat.
Until today I had 0 clue individual threads had individual chat, I thought sneedchat was just general forum chat. Why does this rather niche thread have its own chat lol? Not complaining, just wondering.
Sneedchat has a handful of chats, and some of them are for different boards. One of them, the AC chat, is named "Kennel Club" and this thread is named after it.
I don't recommend stopping by there's some real degenerates in there and some of them only get a pass for keeping to themselves.
I think a big part of it is that the author at time seems clueless in the early chapters, though that's very much intentional on his part. I can't defend anything Marcel does though, it's like he's a retard magnet that attracts bad ideas, literally a vegan, human Wheatley.
