...my reaction after realizing that two HM PM threads wrapped this past week.
ANYHOW,
Switch - Your collab with me: You get what I get.
Wayne -
Pchap - Ah the folly of man-bears. While it's somewhat traditional to root for the underdog I find myself hard-pressed to be on the side of this golden-haired 'protagonist.' Maybe it's because I'm reading the Game of Thrones books and most people with blond hair are backstabbing shitdickers, or maybe its because of the 'ching chong get me some rice biiiiiiitch' line. Either way it happened. Throughout this whole one-sided clusterfuck it remained one-hundred percent impossible to root for Mr. Giovanni, which may have been what you intended from the beginning.
0/65 For using that song.

This Is Supposed To Be A Scouting Mission: I'm going to be doing these as bulk reviews, as more than one of you is present in them. For the most part, both of you (Meaning Zak and Switch) did well in keeping in character right from the get-go. Zakeriah has never been to Hueco Mundo proper, and while Amaya was more on edge he kept his air as almost nonchalant while remaining on guard, if such a thing is possible. Switch on the other hand has had more than one bad experience with HM, and her words of warning and apprehensive air were more than fitting.
Switch, you did a good job in not shrinking too much (or letting the spellcasters do all the work) and pointing out (several times, and rightly so) that your enemy shouldn't have been behaving as it did. When things inevitably hit the shitter (as they tend to do in PM's) you both conducted yourselves in a manner befitting Third Seats, worried and scared enough to feel human but disciplined enough not to let it consume you.
Zak: 168/168 + 30 Div
Switch: 108/108 + 30 Div
La Palidez De Muerte: I think Shun put it best when he stated that just like that, things had begun. Kyuketsu didn't waste an instant of time once they landed establishing a perimeter and distributing the tasks to complete. Going back and forth between the two collabs our people were involved in was really an eye-opener in how individuals in the BT do things. Kyuketsu and (in a strange twist) Arashi opted for the no-nonsense-by-the-books way of going about it, while Amaya and Zak seemed almost to defer entirely to Neko until the very end. Each of these two collabs had a very unique feel, and while the circumstances of their endings are similar that's about all that was.
The both of you handled your final turns in this collab like a boss, and I'm damn proud of the lot of ya.
Shun: 140/140 + 30 Div
Wayne: 148/148 + 30 Div
I'll come if you need help, but judging by how you are all handling yourselves in the desert you may not even need little old me.

Archer - DEAR GOD THE BRIGHT BLUE HURTS MY GODDAMN EYES. Moving on, I'm going to be honest. This collab was damn confusing from start to finish. Going by past experiences, Cerberus isn't the nicest organization on the block. Shinigami/Vizards have had to fight against them before (this writer included) and while I can understand self-preservation to a point it makes very little sense that Zakki would stick his neck out for a Shinigami. While I realize that not all of [insert faction here] are totally [insert moral standing here] or [insert opposite moral standing here], it makes for some off-putting reading. Outside of the questions that arose by reading it I saw nothing wrong with the writing itself.
57/57
Cat Fight - Wow, and I thought the last one was confusing. First off, who was this collab even with? Who wrote which parts? What's with the cornucopia of colors? Aside from asking myself 'what will happen next?' I find myself wondering 'What am I reading?'
--/-- On hold until you can let me know who was involved in this collab and who did what writing.
