Ahh, I've read this fic like 3 times already, but I'm still in awe with how wonderful your descriptions are! And the focus on Xord makes this a really interesting thing as well, nothing like exploration of characters and views, I'm curious as to what you're planning to do or how things are going to affect him in the long run.

It feels so real as well-the fact he didn't really stand a chance to even hit one of them (Chapter 1) because he had absolutely no training and the Mechon had been basically constructed to fight. Like a little bit of hope that is immediately smothered.

I love how you write Egil (Chapter 2), he is so paranoid and careful but also does give the air of someone of authority. I really enjoy it, and reading something like a giant robot playing with his reflection was really fun in a strange way-probably for Egil as well. He was like a child excited over his science project actually working (almost the case).

Part of me is really ahh... sad? about the fact so many of the early Face Units had to be failures like that, and that Egil had to force himself to not feel guilt for what he was doing, but still was a bit affected until he reminded himself of the end goal. It is, again, a very believable situation, but it doesn't make it any less chilling to think about-especially the one that begged to be killed. (Chapter 3) Ah yes the apparition of the super-expressive jerk of a robot what a time to be alive. Egil is so done with him and I find that so hilarious.

All in all, you're doing really wonderful with this! ovob

Fabulous chapter. Reducing Xord to the equivalent of a child was well thought out and done
