SW10/WWW: Powernaut 2008 Episode 2: Reality House!

[Scott Eiler]

Powernaut Comics are back, with the Powernaut as the lead character!  In 
fact, there's going to be a new reality TV show about him and his 
friends.  What could possibly go wrong...?

Here we have the State of the World, complete with Powernaut.  This will 
expand greatly on a Powernaut proto-story I wrote in 2008, about a 
Powernaut Family.

Bonus Section:  Commentary from Wyatt Ferguson!  Reality House, the 
Ellipsis Edition

Yes, this happened. And there was indeed some drama. Mostly it involved 
me and the Brazilian cursed fire goddess on a bike ride to a convention 
center in Boston.  We got in trouble.  Well, actually, *I* did.  The 
Balance made sure she was safe, but I had to get myself out.  I kept an 
extensive diary, if you want to know all the details.

I do prize the friendships I made among that team. No, not Ellipsis. And 
the Mighty Tim and I keep it on a professional level. But I could have 
honestly said...

*  "Laura, you rock the mom bod."

*  "Pam, I admire how Ultimate Darkness goes with anything you wear."

*  "Adu, yeah, of course you wear golden armor into battle 'cause no one 
is ever going to steal it from you."

*  And Karla... Being cursed not to speak, she didn't relate to me on a 
vocal level. I reciprocated; I started teaching ourselves American Sign 
Language... I think she might miss me. And I'm sorry we parted as we 
did. But I don't miss people, I just remember them.


My friends and I all got together after that.  But I had just been 
indwelt by Ultimate Darkness, and I wasn't feeling sociable.  On that 
occasion, apparently Adu and Karla felt sociable, at least with each 
other, so they saw everyone off and stayed in the room later...  The 
Will be done.

I had to separate from them after, because Gov stuff.  Pam would have 
saved me, only my *relatives* came to have a family Gov intervention! 
Really.  Fortunately I escaped after, but I did not trouble my 
housemates.  http://www.eilertech.com/stories/2006/dreamtime.htm#interlude

And that pretty much says how detached I am from both my relatives and 
my tenure in Reality House.

The soldiers presented a pathetic but inspiring spectacle. The
hospitals were crowded with sick and wounded; the walls were
gradually crumbling under incessant shell fire, yet that garrison
of heroes remained undaunted.

It was as Buck said, "just as if they had been Americans."
