HSA-20: Ascendant (Patreon)

Patrick finally confronts what Clayton has become, what he's done to their neighbors, and whether Patrick wants the same thing to happen to him.  Whatever he decides, Clayton remains on a collision course with the HSA.

Hi all! Kicking off November by kicking this HSA story out the door.

I started out with the idea of some HSA agents tracking down a big bad and encountering little problems along the way.  The core of that is still in this mini-arc, but jeez did it become bloated with some rambling nonsense.  Part of that is to do with the unpleasant seasonal-whiplash based head cold I've had for the last few days.  The other part is that I sort of took off the guide rails for this last bit and just let it run free. But hopefully it has some enjoyable stuff to it.  Happy Reading!
