Talk:Padrino Part 21/@comment-4080028-20131103084031

Nothing like a good chapter of a big, exciting story to calm a guy's stressed out nerves. I needed this. I feel like lately I'm just saying the same thing in each comment, so I'll try to make it brief. lol I had fun reading the fights going on, and of course, loved getting to see more of No Beard in action. Laz had some interesting lines in my opinion; maybe because they just sounded so perfectly minion-ish to me. And the revelations, whoo boy, the revelations! You never fail to dissapoint in that category, my friend. lol

I really liked Ellis' fighting style. I'm even willing to go as far and say that I like it more than what I have in mind for Aphro. It's creative, resourceful, effective, and just a lot of fun to read as I play it out like an anime in my mind. The choice for the attack names seems to make them feel even more exciting somehow too, if you can believe that. I just like the names, I suppose.

...Oh!! Almost forgot! I can't recall if I played with the idea of Francis launching air blades that could do more than physical harm or not, but now that I see it in action, it's looking very promising and very exciting to use in a fight scene. The things I could make that sharp, chaotic bastard do... Moving along, now that I give it some more thought, Francis' interrogation of the pirate reminds me of that Samuel L. Jackson quote from Pulp Fiction; lol while I can't remember at the moment what leads up to the quote I have in mind, I know it went something like this: "say what again! Say what again!! I dare you, I double dare you mothaf*****, say what one more damn time!!" Imagining No Beard doing that brings a silly grin to my face. XD Though this brings up another new thought; the fact that we have a FORMER INTERROGATOR doing the work for No Beard was a brilliant choice on your part, Rinji. Plus, it's just awesome seeing said interrogator return after having been assumed to be out of action for now.

I wasn't very hopeful about the No Beards being cool, enjoyable antagonists to read before, but in your talented hands, I've finally seen their true hidden potential unleashed, even if for a little bit, and I'm loving what I'm seeing. I now have hope that these scumbags will someday parallel the fame of The Jolly Pirates in terms of their overall infamy. For this, I give you my sincerest thanks. While the chapter felt a little slower than the previous one, it was still just as enjoyable as any chapter written up by you. Great job. :)
