A Legion Of One (Complete MLP FanFic Reading)

Ойын-сауық

By General Liberator!
The relevant synopses from FIMFiction.net:
'During its two year search for Shepard, the lone Geth traveled across the galaxy, exploring worlds both known and unknown. After a blind FTL jump to escape from an Alliance patrol, it found itself in a previously undiscovered system, a system without a mass relay and completely cut off from the rest of the galaxy. It touched down on one of the worlds, a garden-like planet, with the intention of gathering data on any flora and fauna that may have been present.
Instead, it made a remarkable discovery.'
Comments:
A story that I was first found by accident, then was asked to help edit, then decided to do a reading for. Warm, profound, heartbreaking, and a joy to perform -- good fodder for fans of Mass Effect and MLP both. Special thanks to General Liberator for allowing this madness, and to you for watching. Cheers, and enjoy.
Filly Twilight is best filly. :D
(In other news, those of you who've been watching for awhile will note that I've done work for both an Admiral and a General now. Keep this up, I'll have a right proper army of authors.)

    Now I'm picturing Legion observing the events of the last few seasons and offering his thoughts. "We do not comprehend the Equine obsession with spontaneous harmonic expression. It puzzles us how all participants are able to begin vocalizing simultaneously, or how all seem to intrinsically know the melodic structure and lyrics. Perhaps study of other hive species will illuminate. Beginning extranet search protocols." _Five seconds later..._ "We... regret cross-referencing the denizens of this world with extranet search history data of the human Earth-nation Belarus..."

    One day, Twilight will go to space. One day, Twilight will ask about Legion. One day, Twilight will learn that by complete accident, she changed the course of galactic history and probably saved organic civilization. One day, Twilight will find a small room on the rebuilt Citadel and cry for hours when she finds out that, even as a filly, she changed all of creation through friendship.

    "Mass Effect " is one of my all time favorite games! I loved the interaction between the Geth, ( soon to be named LEGION), and filly Twilight. (who's sweet innocents was just heartbreakingly adorable)

    You are my damn hero. I knew that you were putting a lot of effort and work into this, and yet... It still completely blew away all of my expectations. The sound effects, the background sounds and music, and of course your emotional delivery... Utterly beautiful. You honor me. Don't stop doing what you do. Thank You. For everything.

    There was a moment where you missed the synthetic layering effect on the Geth about 39:00 in, where it said "What else are you referring to?". As someone who has not yet played Mass Effect (I bought them years ago on sale but didn't have the hardware at the time to play, and now has too many other things to do), I liked this a lot. First of all, the effects were great. It took me a bit to get used to the distortion effect for the Geth's voice, but after realizing that was the way they're intended to sound, I warmed up to it. I loved the sound effects of the forest you used; basically any time sound effects are used over music alone or no background noise whatsoever catches my attention, because it means the reader put in the extra effort to think about what should go into it and then find appropriate effects. So, thanks for doing that. ^_^ As to the story itself, it was an interesting one. Again, as someone who hasn't played the Mass Effect games, I was mostly using the story to clue me in to what the Geth are and their greater significance to the galaxy/universe, and I think the author did a good job at that. Just the manner of crossover was a good choice, being mostly a one-on-one interaction between an innocent child and oblivious machine instead of, say, the Mane6 being called upon as ambassadors or something. It allows for a much more contemplative tone and I prefer that honestly.

    Not a sequel, but there _is_ an epilogue GeneralLiberator wrote that I left out of the reading (mostly because they wrote Shepard gender-neutrally and I wasn't about to force a male or female interpretation on it). You can find it through the fic link in the description!
