“Unseal your armor!"
doesn't look good ...
Nice MAU story
well written and entertaining. The continuing cliff-hangers each chapter are however detrimental to the overall enjoyment of the story, imho. But I'll certainly enjoy this story, when it's finally posted complete.
Thank you in advance.
Cliffhanger anyone?
Sheesh! Here I thought _I_ was the Queen of cliffhangers, but you just trumped me with this one! This is gonna be a fight for the annals of Superhero/MAU history! Hopefully this Ironman wannabe is gonna get what's coming to him, in spades!
I have a feeling that this could blow the lid off the MAU secrecy bit, but I can hope that somehow, this won't leak to the public. I got a feeling that, with all the firepower assembled, and the more than able resources available via 7 0f 9's ability to control her MAU will save the day.
Great, great story, using many of the iconic characters from Elrod's own universe, and adding what I think will be iconic characters of your own invention, Grover. I'm champing at the bit for the final chapter(s) of this one!
Hugs and love,

The forgotten
Think people are forgetting about Brian, I am betting he will be showing up very soon and he has a bone to pick with the Perv.
so short, too short
please don't keep us hanging long.
thanks

Steven needs to be put down! Grrrrr!!
I hope the cavalry arrives soon. Those other MAUsters had better hurry though. Please hurry them! :p
Thanks for the short, exciting chapter. And kudos!

Maybe the Klingons ?
This Iron man is a real plonker. She needs a little help here? Guys?

I think Bridget should just
I think Bridget should just tell perv to "bite me". The minute she does open her armor, he will be overpowering her with the pheromones again, which will place her under his control. That is a bad thing.
Hoo boy.
Steven has made his move and things don't look so good just now. If the 'posse' does arrive in time to stop the fight, he's just likely to run and set up in a different venue. We've already seen that he has no qualms at all about killing Griffin/Bridget or Danny, so he won't be giving up on getting 'his' stuff back from them. I'm looking forward to seeing what Brian has done and will do here.

the perv so needs to be
the perv so needs to be taught a lesson
Great imagination, great story
Having read and critiqued the story for conformance to the MAU universe, I have an unfair advantage, which I will not abuse by giving spoilers. I will use this space to say that this is one hell of a story, written with great imagination, skillfully-woven plot, good action scenes, and well-developed characters. Aspiring writers should read this and re-read it and take notes. This is an example of the formula for successful stories:
good imagination + good command of language and grammar + hard work => compelling story.
Now if only he'd start another one!
Imagination is more important than knowledge

Gripping and thoughtful
This is more thoughtful than many of the MAU stories, and its action scenes are as gripping and fast-moving as any. A couple of issues, though:
1. I saved all fourteen chapters offline in one big file using the "Printer-friendly version" of chapter 1. However, in this form the chapters are out of order: chapter 10 is followed by 13 and 14, then 11 and 12. Probably you have the sort weights wrong in the book outline tab.
2. Besides a few miscellaneous typos here and there, I saw one mistake that's quite frequent: mis-punctuation and mis-capitalization of dialogue tags. For instance:
should be punctuated and capitalized thusly:
If you're following a piece of quoted dialogue with a dialogue tag like "he said" or "Bridget asked" or whatever, the initial piece of dialogue needs to end in a comma. And if you're continuing the quoted speech after a dialogue tag, it needs to start with a lowercase letter unless it's beginning a new sentence, in which case the dialogue tag itself ought to end in a period. E.g.
"This is silly," he said. "I look absurd in this get-up."
vs:
"I look absurd in this get-up," he said, "and I feel even sillier."
Also, "smiled" is kind of marginal as a dialogue verb, but that's an individual stylistic choice I won't complain about.
You mentioned two stories in an earlier chapter, "Green Rain" and "A Bodysuit Story Sorta Kinda". It wouldn't necessarily make sense to mention the title and exact source of those stories within the body of the story, but you could link to them or reference them in an author's note at the end of that chapter, or the end of the story.
