Page 527- hiding behind the wall of text
Okay, and now back to our ACTUAL plot, which isn’t actually Sailor Moon related at all. If you’re confused by that sentence, then you obviously didn’t check in Yesterday to see Far Out There’s latest April Fool’s silliness. Well, I strongly advise you go back and check it out, especially to provide some context for my closing announcement.
But first, let’s ramble about the page itself. Yeah, I know nobody was missing the Wall of Text, especially when it’s nothing but technobabble. However, I think I did something marginally clever this time: I didn’t make up any of that technospeak, it’s all swiped directly from TVTropes and various SciFi wikis. If you really wanna get your geek on, read carefully and see how many buzzwords you can trace back to their original franchise!
Of course, it’s not like it actually matters what any of that jargon really means. As we’ve seen time and again, “it’s mad science” is basically Far Out There’s version of “a wizard did it.”
Oh, and speaking of mad scientists, SWEET HOLY POUNDCAKES, LITTLE CHIBI TABITHA TURNED OUT ADORABLE. I gotta find some excuses to use that drawing again.
Now, on to the unpleasant part: I really hope everyone goes back and enjoys the April Fool’s page because it cost us today’s Voting Incentive. As I mentioned before, I couldn’t get started on yesterday’s page until long after I should have, a literal 24-hour work day kind of takes it out of a guy. Thus, I had to drop SOMETHING from this update if I was gonna get it done without collapsing (Frankly, if this page hadn’t been two-thirds text, I’m not even sure I could have finished IT). Everything will be back to normal Friday, though. For real!
(Historical Notes: There was a lot of picking apart of what bit of jargon comes from where, but my favorite comment was actually a holdover from the April Fools page. Somebody suggested that, in alternate joke page continuity, Vengeance might have been lurking in range of the Magical Girl Wave. The thought of the result still gives me willies.)
Well I must be crazy then because I think I can make it out. In layman’s terms Alphone can control computers by number crunching way faster than the target, using a small embedded device that also causes small distortions in the signals of the target on a nano scale. She says the projection of him isn’t important but I assume its a really advanced compression algorithm along with some form of signal cramming. Now this has the side effect of causing the power level of the signal to go up and down repeatedly (or be in flux). This next part is a tad difficult, but I think the frequency is too high for anything to grab onto. All of this is of course dependent on no conflicting information in the future.
Sure! Let’s go with that!

@Historical note: Maybe, but he would be a “Dark Magical Girl” if anything
