I do feel a little bad for Emily, but as Taylor later says, she's a grown woman who made her own choices and now has to live with them. It's sad, in a way: if she had been more upfront and supportive, she could have easily have gotten Taylor and New Wave firmly on her side.
They ABB is still making plans, I see. That probably won't end well.
Huh, I didn't expect Legend to show up. I wonder what his reasons are, not to mention Contessa's.
Whew. That was a tense meeting; things are ironed out now, but Taylor is right in thinking this isn't over.
Take care, good luck, stay safe, stay healthy, and I look forward to your next update.

And only now I understood. Taylor is not Lung at the core
Taylor is Warrior.
Zion.
As summarized elsewhere (elseverse?) by one Michael Allen, "If you haven't surprised him, you won't hit him. If you hit him once, then he knows how you got through his defences, and he won't be surprised a second time. Trying it a third time means that he'll be ready to counterattack, and quite likely take you all the way out."
Quite fitting for Wyvern, methinks.
Also... Correct me if I'm wrong, but have we seen any mention of Golden Boy as of now?

I like how powers are shuffled in this setting, and how that ripples outward
I wonder if Taylor and Lung simply shifted shards and they manifested differently, or if Ianago is an entirely different person and Kenta died on Kyuushu without his power
Looking forward to more

Taylor pulling some new BS trick out of her bag of unknown tricks reminds me of how the world's most famous consulting detective would pull obscure trivia out his head to provide key evidence in a murder case. That said, she certainly pulled off the figurative "Nuke the site from orbit, it's the only way to be sure." option quite well.
Thanks for the entertaining and thoughtful update that I missed earlier thanks to the host's notification issues.

Loving Taylor as the tranforming and power countering version of Smaug. Great job

What if various Wyvern fans have posted music videos of their beloved draconic overlady online, splicing various clips of her together with a soundtrack? For various reasons, the following tracks seem especially appropriate to me for this, though I'm certain there are plenty of other candidates...
1] Mighty Wings
2] Danger Zone
3] Top Gun Anthem
4] The Battle of Britain March
5] 633 Squadron
6] Born To Be Wild
7] Girls Just Wanna Have Fun [including a lot of footage of Wyvern and Glory Girl flying and fighting together]
...'Mighty Wings' seemed especially apt, given that Taylor actually /has/ 'mighty wings'. ;)
Sending you cuddles and kisses,
And all the best wishes,
- Julie ;) xoxox

...so I had an idea for a potential PHO post that maybe one of Wyvern's sappier [albeit nicer] fans might make? Produced below:
][
"Julie Qte (Original Smart Alec)
The nature of a trigger event has bearing on what powers a parahuman gets. So consider this: what kind of traumatic situation would cause a teenage girl to turn into a fire breathing dragon? And consider the enormity of the scale of how horrifying and traumatizing that must have been? This is why our draconic overlady deserves cuddles. ALL THE CUDDLES. #wyverncuddles #cuddlethatdragon #love4ourdraconicoverlady #weluvwyvern
Embedded photos:
Vista Hugs Wyvern
Vista Hugs Wyvern
Glory Girl Sidehugs Wyvern
Glory Girl Sidehugs Wyvern "
][
...the photos are intended to be of events from Chapter 13, in the immediate aftermath of the battle at the Isaac Lord Museum.
The hashtags are, I admit, unlikely to appear in a PHO post, and are more appropriate for a Twitter account: but I included them for fun anyway. :)
If you want to use any part of this 'rough draft', then please feel free. Otherwise, I hope that this has at least amused and / or entertained you a little bit, my dear ack1308. ;)

On a completely different note...
What if Lung seeks out Wyvern to challenge her, intending to reassert his 'badassery' by defeating her? The reasons being, a] a big part of Lung's reputation comes from his having survived fighting Leviathan, and b] it is obvious to anyone conscious and in possession of at least half of a functioning brain cell that the Triumvirate hope that Wyvern can fight Endbringers. If Wyvern can injure an Endbringer, or even kill one? Then Lung's rep will take a biiiiig hit. [Even moreso if it's Leviathan that she injures / kills.]
...and what if this is the event that first brings Lung to Brockton Bay in this story's timeline? [Granted, his time in Brockton might be very short - about as short as the Slaughterhouse Nine's was...]
Furthermore, how much kudos would Taylor / Wyvern gain from thoroughly defeating Lung? ;)
##
On another different note...
What if word gets around that Roadhog [nee Squealer] and the other Merchant capes have all left Brockton Bay to start afresh in a city which conspicuously lacks a giant fire-breathing wyvern among its residents? [I'm thinking Detroit - it somehow feels appropriate for Roadhog, a Tinker specialising in vehicles, to establish herself as a crime lord in MoTown. Perhaps using a disused car factory as her workshop?]

I just realised something about Stinger... he's read the Evil Overlord List! :)
In all seriousness, though, one of the items on the EOL is the importance of employing a five-year-old child to review plans for any flaws before their implementations. Stinger does not employ a child, but his nephew Winston has sufficiently child-like simplicity and dull-wittedness to fulfil the same role. And as a bonus? By employing Winston instead of a five-year-old child, Stinger is not violating child labour legislation. :D
You, my dear ack1308, are a total screaming genius. ;) Stinger and Winston are a highly entertaining character combination: I've never read the actual web novel 'Worm', so I have no clue if they are canon characters or not - but I've read a few dozen Worm fanfics by this point, and I've never seen Stinger and Winston appear in any other stories, or even get so much as a name-drop or an allusion made to them; and this leads me to speculate that they are OCs of your design. If I am correct in my conclusion, then you have earned a vast amount of admiration: they are fantastic characters, and Stinger has bags of style and elan as a villain, far superior to... well, just about every canon Worm villain, actually.
