As promised, a new chapter of The New Ron. I think this turned out really well and is a good lead-in for Tara's first team mission coming up soon.
In other news, I'm still working on Nexus Event, but it'll probably go up next week.
Right now, I'm focusing on the next Winning Peace, which I believe will be late Fr...

Good News/Bad News
Very obviously, this should have been a Nexus Event chapter. I ran into a little bit of a block on an important conversation for that chapter, so I set it aside and worked on the next WP chapter.
Which is what you see before you now. (Duh.)
Anyway, still working on t...

2024-05-01 10:23:50 +0000 UTC View PostI'll admit that the Hellfire Club had never been my particular favorite part of the overall Marvel franchise of properties, for a number of reasons. The first was that conspiracies tended to be dramatically overplayed when they popped up in narratives. The classic example was the villain James Moriarty from Sherlock Holmes. P...
