53-01 - Behind enemy lines
The best part of waking up is NOT having your Clan Leader inches away from your face.
Edit: Oh, and can we get a permanent link to Pax Draconica? If not on the front page, then at least on the Links page.

I'll have to go through the links page at some point as it's way out of date. For now, I've added a link in a new section under the "Finished backstories" list, but if there's a better place for it I'm open to suggestions.
Looks like Dr Harding was thorough with the patching. Anja won't be as easy to defeat as Yvonne and her siblings.

Nah. There was too much personality behind that reply. My bits are on her being piloted by a soul. Meaning she is harder to trick, at the cost of reaction time and having a survival instinct that can override orders.

Somehow, that's even more chilling.
If I woke up with Dariyl staring at me I'd be happy before reality setting in of something not right
That mystery should now be solved.

Uh oh what Dariyl do to bill?

See chapters 26-30, which admittedly was 6 years ago.
(Also that's D-a-r-y-i-l)
I've found it on page 30-03 (http://project-future.xepher.net/epsilon.php?strip=30-03).
Oh right them, also my phone auto corrects Daryil I need to fix that

Guess Anja is still a bit salty about being made to call Daryil and getting the Professor's wing tentacle through her heart for her trouble.

Yeah, can't really blame her for that one. :<
53-03 - I don't think she does
TBF Daryil, under the same circumstances, it was only word choice giving the mind-controller the opportunity to reveal it glibly that stopped the guy next to you in the middle of doling out the same fate to Ash, so that might be a little stones in glass houses when it comes to the Prof.
That Anja bought it on herself is 100% true though.

If you mean Chapter 26 of Project Future, that was actually Jakob who went ballistic, and he was hurting Ashley rather than killing him outright. Daryil would likely have stopped him if he had tried, though it would have broken his cover.

Under Jyratheth you tended to be either a fanatic or a corpse, and they had an inquisition to determine which.

Have I mentioned that I
really miss the 'applaud' feature?

I look forward to hearing more of the Professor's insane rationale for Niall being sired directly by Daryil somehow.
