Hostile Takeover: Difference between revisions

While it lands very high on the [[Mohs Scale of Sci Fi Hardness]], ''Hostile Takeover'' has several unique twists to classic science fiction formulae. For instance, in approved [[Golden Age]] manner, the main protagonist is a hard-science type; however, instead of nuclear physics or mechanical engineering, she is a financial analyst.

 

 

----

* [[Elaborate Underground Base]]: Vesta Colony, essentially.

* [[Evil Counterpart]]: John to CC. Having almost identical backstories, one would think they would be BFFs. Not so, mostly because John is an amoral backstabber who will do literally ''anything'' to climb the corporate ladder.

* [[Giving Radio to The Romans]]

* [[Harmless Freezing]]: Except for the fact that it allows peculators to siphon off your funds.

* [[Human Resources]]: Pay your debts. That is all.

* [[Human Popsicle]]

* [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold]]: Davidoff, to the nth power. Mac, to a lesser degree.

* [[Science Hero]]: CC uncovers a diabolical conspiracy...[[For Science!|With Math]]!

* [[Shipper On Deck]]: Margaret, though she's pretty subtle about it. Later on [[Everyone Can See It|everyone gets in on the act]].
