Dark Mirror: Part I Review Topic

[a goose]

Yeah...Thankyou.Yes. Didn't really work out for Inc, though. XD

[Wotz]

Woah, it's hard to wade through a plot so thick!...I've lost my edge.Anyway, great plot development, Frustro was a villain, and the image of Incommodo sprinting through the police station was strangely funny in my head. Also, Incurs-whatever has appeared.And will The Eye appear in the RPG?

[a goose]

Thankyou. Consider this the rollercoaster, and Part II the ghost train....Yes you have.Thankyou.Now, with a plot as thick as this, can you be sure of that?...Okaaaayyyy...Incurso and The Eye are the same person. Except Incurso/The Eye is a Toa of Ice in BZPRPG. I made him a Toa of Earth here so he could sink through the ground.

[25K Now!]

Sinking through the earth eh?What if he accidentally gets stuck next to gas pipes?

[a goose]

Then he's screwed.Then he's screwed.

[An Archaic Predicament]

Wait... Isn't Reichenbach Falls where Sherlock Holmes and James Moriarty fall to their deaths? Hmmmm... Reich...

[a goose]

Yes, it's a reference to the Reichenbach Falls. Reichenbach is loosely based on Moriarty.

[An Archaic Predicament]

Oh boy. I have a feeling I can guess how this may end. Or at least 3 possible ways this could end. Also, just how many SH references need you make? Not that I'm complaining. http://www.bzpower.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/sarcastic.gif

[a goose]

Yeah. Although, admittedly, the part leading up to the end will be a surprise. I can guarantee that I have a few tricks up my sleeve.42.(Besides, I haven't made THAT many. I actually made less than I had planned, seeing as The Eye/Incurso almost had an air rifle. XD)I have read all the stories. No-one complains about my references and lives. So it's a very good thing you aren't complaining.

[25K Now!]

Read newest chapter. Arkrak seems slightly more incompetent and less similar to any of his incarnations, but I foresee his attempts at flirting with Nikarra.

[a goose]

He's not all that incompetent. It's just that Incommodo talks too quickly for him. *Facepalm*Anyhow, what were your thoughts on the chapter itself?

[25K Now!]

Rather good. Introduces more plot, gives us more suspense, and world-ending.Also, this is Techna!Arkrak with BZPRPG!Arkrak's abilities right?

[a goose]

I like the world-ending part.No, this is DarkMirror!Arkrak with BZPRPG!Arkrak's abilities and Techna!Arkrak's job.

[25K Now!]

Next thing we know he obtains Elementum!Arkrak's personality.

[Wotz]

Well, the world's gonna end....HECK YEAH FOR PLOT DEVELOPMENT

[a goose]

@Wotz: Yup. The end of the world.... This is gonna be fun.

[An Archaic Predicament]

So, is Whispers Part 2 or a different story entirely?

[a goose]

Whispers is a different story. Part II will have the imaginative name of 'Dark Mirror: Part II'. XPBut Whispers is connected to the epics, more so to Part II of DM than Part I, but it's still connected.

[An Archaic Predicament]

So we will learn things in Whispers that won't be explained until Part II? Interesting...

[25K Now!]

So ... it's basically a side story that fits in with the continuity?Like how there was OGs, OGG, 2ndOG and the Endless Frontier side-stories?

[a goose]

We will learn things in Whispers that won't be explained until Part II, and we will see things in Whispers that will appear in Part II.@Hub: Pretty much, yeah.

[Wotz]

So, the body count rises.As does Inc's IQ.However funny it was, that little Myself and Nobody thing sounds like it's from somewhere, like a joke or a SH story.

[a goose]

Well, it wouldn't be the apocalypse without a body count.Inc's always been smart.It's my own twist on the 'Detective Inspector Me' joke.

[Protodite Karzahni]

Y'know what Reichenbach having everyone in the room killed reminds me of? That scene in Captain America where Red Skull starts killing his fellow Nazi's.

[a goose]

I hated that film.But, any other thoughts?

[Protodite Karzahni]

I thought it was pretty good. I mean, it wasn't amazing. But compared to the Green Lantern, it was actually fun. But, yeah, it's interesting to see the plot progressing. Nobody and Myself are certainly weird characters. In a good way, of course.

[a goose]

Anything would be 'actually fun' compared to Green Lantern.Nobody and Myself are Arkrak and Incommodo, respectively.... I thought people would've caught on to that.

[Protodite Karzahni]

...Yes, yes they are.

[a goose]

Was that an honest mistake or a joke?

[Protodite Karzahni]

All of the above.

[25K Now!]

Poor Matoran, forced to go with the schemes of Incommodo.

[a goose]

He wasn't forced to do anything!And he will be showing up again.

[25K Now!]

I see. Possibly as a future villain?

[a goose]

I see. Possibly as a future villain?

Yes and no. Definitely an antagonist, but not a villain.

[Wotz]

I love the fact that there's nothing special about Pirok or Proditor, despite the fact that Pirok was your old username and Proditor has 'died' on multiple occasions XDAnd it looks like something's telling Incy what to say. Maybe this is to do with the Whispers? Or Nikarra?Pulse and Ignotus survived.Something from a previous chapter: I have to imagine this guy:

“Speak, fool, and be done with it.” One of the beings, a male Vortixx, snapped at Reichenbach.

as Sentraken, due to his pointless insults, short temper, arrogance and lack of importance in the story

[a goose]

Thankyou. It's more that Reich sees nothing special in them.Perhaps. You'll just have to wait and see, won't you? :sly:Indeed they did.I considered making him either Sentraken or The Shadow. Take your pick. XP

[25K Now!]

Welp, everything's going to go down the drain. Inc just uttered something that will lead to despair. But then again, they're the main characters. They possess plot armour!

[a goose]

Hey, what's Despair got to do with this? Has he been reading my epic in secret? :fear:Oh, right, you just mean it's Very Bad News. Plot armour FTW!

[An Archaic Predicament]

I've noticed that in addition to the many Sherlock Holmes references in these stories, there also appear to be many Doctor Who references, mainly quotes.

Yes, I'm a big Doctor Who fan. There are far more DW references in Shadows than in DM, though. XP
