    Summary

    Everyone is psychic. Everyone in the known universe. Everyone except us.

     

    Sort of original writing, but I'm using Hussie's trolls (more or less) and the Pesterchum formatting (and I may make recurring joke/SBaHJ references later), so I slapped the Homestuck label on it. Also sort of linked to Troll War (see the afternote).

    Summary

    The human body is able to capture a catalogue of diseases it is exposed to by creating long-lived memory cells from the immune system. 

    The body politic is able to do the same, but its cells are far more self-aware.

    Summary

    A truss provides the most flexibility and STRENGTH of any basic structural design.

    It is therefore 100% rational that a triad provide the most personal STRENGTH and flexibility.

    Even one under a great deal of stress.

    Summary

    In which a semi-unified humanity encounters trolls for the first time, John and Dave are space pilots, I am terrible with descriptive and narrative text, so there will be a lot of dialogue, and I steal blatantly from "Enemy Mine", "Darmok" (TNG), and pretty much the last two seasons of DS9. Oh, and there will be relationships and characters not flagged yet. I mean, you make an AU, you might as well drag in reinterpretations of the whole cast to fit your own personal preferences, right?
