Ben 10 | The Color Green (Ch 8)

dfnaudoafiua climax of the story. o.o I tried my very hardest to keep it free from glaring plotholes, so I hope that was at least partially successful. There were a couple of ways this could have gone, and in the end I kind of took two of what I thought were the more promising paths and kind of merged them? (Mostly because I liked them so much I ( Read more... )

*nuzzles chapter* I'm so, sooooo happy. You used ALIEN X to fix everything. IT'S BRILLIANT. Ben's all better, and Kevin's so stubborn, and Serena and Bellicus and...oh, happy. *sighs*

I am so fucking happy right now. So fucking happy.

XD I'm glad you liked it~ I was worried it was a little bit of a copout, but I realized Kevin's brilliant plan wasn't so brilliant and... well, yeah. XD It's so what Ben would do, I think.

Pfft, "like" it, you say...this chapter reduced me to a blabbering puddle of happy.

It had the potential to work, even if it did sound far-fetched...and he seemed close to it before Gwen and Ben yanked him out of it...but he probably would have died a couple times over if he did. Alien X was definitely not a copout, especially the way you did it. It was a last resort. Ben doesn't push his resourcefulness to the limit when it's for himself, but Kevin was in danger at that point. So Ben just wanted things to be fixed, and he wanted them to be fixed now so Kevin wouldn't be put in danger for his sake anymore.

And, oh, this line: Ben turned and shot him a look that actually made him snap his mouth shut. He’d never seen Ben so… so angry before. So determined. Fuck - did he really feel that strongly about trading his life for Kevin’s? Shivers. I got them ( ... )

XD <3

I totally can't remember what the first solution I had was, but I definitely had to sit down and think out how I could possibly make this all work without too many loose ends. And then I realized that just because Ben never goes Alien X, that doesn't mean he can't, and then it just kind of followed that things had gotten so desperate, what with Kevin absorbing all the aliens again and infecting himself, that Ben would decide to use Alien X again. He's so the type to give himself up like that. ::dies::

XDD Hey, incoherent responses are really pretty awesome feedback, because at least I know people like it, hee~ <3

<3 Thank you~ :DD

XD I realized it was kind of... action-packed, compared to the rest. But I guess that's how these things go. :D;

WOW.

I'm astounded. God-be-damned ASTOUNDED.

I can't decide what it is about this that's so freaking awesome! The fact that Kevin's remutating (a thought I've entertained many a time), but with the Alien Force aliens, is brilliant! I loved the hints at all the different body parts without never showing what he really looks like! (Ambiguity. I loves it.)

And there's the whole thing with him and Ben essentially arguing over who was going to die for the other. GAAAAAAH. HEART-WRENCHING. SEE THAT? YEAH, IT'S MY HEART, ON THE FLOOR. YOU WRENCHED IT. D:

And then you go off and fix it all with Alien X and Kevin's absorby powers! SKVJBLVWIUSDKCXKJDFKNSDMNFJXCLKMSN BCJVK KLSNMV. All you need to do is save Kevin from being all mutated-like and make Ben kiss him better!

I LOVE THIS THING.

I was pretty sure it was never clear why or how he turned back (though I've only seen two seasons of Ben 10), but I figured there was no reason he wouldn't re-mutate if he tried that stunt again. >>; (XD I totally sat down for about five minutes trying to figure out what part of who would go where, but I kind of just decided to throw in a couple of details and let people come up with the rest on their own. Less work for me, muahaha~)

You know they'd argue over something like that. It means they care. Really. XD They're both just way too stubborn.

Hee, thankfully that's not a whole lot to take care of, so soon all will be well again!

<3 THANK YOU~ :DDD

Oh man, this story is fucking amazing~
I just read all 8 chapters in the last hour and I'm very excited for the epilogue! You've handled the flow of the story well and I love where the plot went, and I especially LOVE HOW THIS CHAPTER WENT.

It was brilliant! I hope the epilogue comes soon x3

Thank you! :D I'm so glad you enjoyed it (ahaha, enough to sit down and read it all, you are dedicated!). Sometimes things just work out in the end and I feel like they did so all on their own! XD

Yes~ I did finally finish, the end is up here! :D
