Discussion Thursday: Evolution
It’s Discussion Thursday so for today we’ll be discussing Evolution
So now that you’ve had time to finish and absorb Evolution – thoughts? Feelings?
Intro of new Characters? Who are you surprised by? Not surprised? DUDE I want their backhistory/story NOW!!!
Curious to see what will happen now?
Ramifications of events that took place in the story?
What was your favorite part? Character?
What shocked you the most?
Luke’s demise. Tim’s change and loss of bond. The Hulk included. That the Professor is Nico’s dad. Sherlock Holmes Nico’s brother. I want background on sherlock and Watson – what is the deal with their not bond?
I want to see who wants Dean and why did he have that flash back in the tomb. I love the Dean/Sam so hope they continue to be a big part of the arc.
I just love the whole thing. VanDoom? The mutants and the history of all of it. The Wolfman and his mate, the story behind Eureka.
You guys did a great job and thank you for letting me share!
Wolverine not wolfman…. long long day
That’s okay – so get the long long day!
I admit we kept the Sherlock Holmes thing under wraps for a long time… purposely pushing the ‘Myth’.
More of that story will be coming out – we promise.
I think one of the biggest things that surprised me was Stark buying Stargate Command. My mouth literally fell open when I read that. Lucas’ death and Joe’s betrayal hit me out of the blue. He was the last person I expected to do that. it’s like a treasure hunt finding out what vampire is going to show up next.
I agree! Stargate! Wow! And Dean showing the geek! SQUEEEE!!! LOL! I just had to do that.
I wonder about who the other “higher” traitor is. I hope it is not a character I have fallen in love with. I get so involved that I would feel it was a betrayal of me. Hey, the stories I love come to be friends that I go visit – a lot. All I have to do is start reading. I am always welcome, I enjoy the company, and love the drama and just the plan ordinary things. It’ spending time with friends,
We need the Stargate under better control – hence the idea of Tony – and he still isn’t telling how much it really cost 😀
Evolution was remarkable. I have followed Sylum from the very beginning and have truly enjoyed how it has twisted and changed over the years. I was heartbroken for both Speed and Horatio when the ‘cure’ dissolved their bond. I cannot even begin to imagine having such a bond only to loose it. At first I was afraid that Giles was the traitor and was shocked that it turned out to be Joe. I never really liked him, but I loved Lucas and felt for Speed having to loose him after loosing so much else the last few years. Lindsey’s death was shocking and so was Stella’s.
I am wondering about the comment that Lycan and Alyc made about having raised Nico, at least I assume it was Nico they were talking about. Though I could be wrong and it could have been Remy they were talking about.
Raven having been turned and Frankenstein raising Sidney was a shock. I cannot even begin to imagine the outcome of those two situations. As well as Magneto carrying the soul of Nico’s mother. How hard it must be for him to know that the new carrier of her soul is pretty much a monster.
You truly shocked the hell out of me with Sherlock being Nico’s brother. I also love how you had him already have figured out who Ernesto is to Nico. Though I wonder if that is truly all they are to one another.
I was shocked and overjoyed to see Castiel show up in this universe, but I loved it. Especially when Dean punched Wade in the jaw and made him realize he was hurting Castiel.
Tony’s reaction to Dean was priceless and I love that he got sneaky on the pair and got them back into college.
Eliot being one of Nico’s loyal men was fantastic and I look forward to seeing where that goes next and how they will manage to protect Hardison.
Thanks

You know your the first to point out about Magneto! *gives you a cookie*
Good catch on Lycan and Alyc … but it’s not Nico or Remy – there was one other person in that clearing confronting Magneto… *lays hint down for all*
Many questions were answered while foundations were laid down for the next Arc – which before anyone asks – there are some stories that will come out first then will start working on the next Arc.
It’s been a long road since that first story I will admit that… I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the trip so far and hope to see you down the road
Actually, very few fanfiction writers develop a story as complex as that of the vampires in this universe. It is a great job.
Reading Family and Annihilation again, I realized that what happened in Rome in Demons and Angels, hit several characters from different clans. Any chance you can write a spin-off of this story with the thought and / or points of view of the characters????
Still I can not figure out which is the true relationship between Ernesto and Nicolas ^ ^
Dean a geek??? ^ ^ that was known, appearances are deceiving and sometimes a lot.
Surprises??? many: Magneto Nicholas’s mother??? never crossed my mind. Sherlock’s brother Nicolas??? that was great … Is he a relative of Tony Stark??? Joe a traitor??? I never liked the character, but did not think it was him, I feel sorry for Luke and Speed. The President of the United States is Cesar? wow … I do not see it coming.
My favorite part of annihilation, was when Speed was becoming human … the sadness of the family, the thought of losing one of the main characters in the story, I had the nerves to the max.
Is the possibility of developing the genealogical trees of the characters? because honestly I have some difficulties keeping track of who is related to whom.
ps. sorry for my english, but my first language is Spanish.
Over time there will be other stories that will touch on what happened from the POV of other characters.
Gil’s story Say Goodnight Not Goodbye – does show one of those perspectives. (In Advent Section at the moment)
Ernesto’s story is far from over – he’s sneaky that way
We’re working on building Pages for each of the family lines to start showing the connections physically … then in time by soul.
Thanks for reading!
Yep, working on the rewrites for that one, and the reactions will be tweaked and more will be seen, as now I’ve actually read the stories (while writing I hadn’t seen them yet and was in the OMG, need to finish NOW state, lol).
If only Alien would quit being such a *diva* and get off his ass and cooperate! *glares at him* Of course, the heat doesn’t help, *sighs*
I’m sorry, I’m wrong … is evolution rather than annihilation. ^ ^
Moriarty is Galileo, that was a surprise.
The Sherlock thing definitely. Galileo and Moriarty being one and the same actually makes a lot of sense.
I have a question… i am wrong or wilson is house’s mate??? if that is true, what happen with munch???
Wilson and House are Mates – that was one of the major changes that will be addressed in re-works of Annihilation.
Munch is still around – him and House are good friends.
I’d like to see Dean and Clay meeting, some sort of update on how Xander/Elliot are doing, and what goes on in PPTH with the ducklings and whether Chase is the only one that knows what’s going on (besides Cuddy).
I’m guessing that the identifying the spies and all that will be in the next arc. I can’t wait until it’s written and posted 🙂
I just read this whole series in the last four days or so and it was fantastic!
Actually with the reworkings of Annihilation you will learn more about Xander/Eliot and also they have a role in upcoming stories.
Hmm you may have inspired the Dean/Clay bunny.
