GOD DAMN, Quandt. The pacing, the shifting backgrounds, the words intensifying the effects of the beacon... this is very gay and oozing with lead and mercury. It's a treat getting to read even part of Beaconing, and I'm rooting for you to finish this in the future! (please. i stopped playing on a cliffhanger and i'm so curious what this is going to look like. how dare you think your writing could possibly ever not be good. it's spectacular. 100 million positive comments upon you)
