Quote: Quote: Insults might enrage him, but he has other insecurities to exploit too.Quote: In that case it's Yuki's turn to step up, or maybe CSFB!. Both of them have unique talents for enraging evil people.I mean that Slithis isn't just provoked to rage. He's also vulnerable to flattery, paranoia, and threats. Quote: Quote: He's not miffed so much as mildly disappointed. A more extreme reaction wouldn have amused him better.Quote: That's what I wondered, because it might be Lara's *reaction* that harms Thugos' chances of wanting to try again anytime soon. Opinions are easy to change over time; attitudes aren't, it's why bad guys hate Hatman so much. Not that I'm comparing the two directly - Lara's attitude is probably more similar to Xander's than Hatman's, worrying less about what's wrong or right, but what produces balance instead.Thugos probably feels he can now classify Lara's level of threat. Quote: Quote: Slithis used this same magic on Queen Annj of Ausgard a while back. The way it works is that unless the victim obeys the agreement made by the pact then over time she becomes weaker as their life force ebbs and will eventually die to become a wraith serving Slithis.Quote: Quote: Of course, once the lein is recognised a number of people, Liu Xi not least amongst them, will feel compelled to address the situation. When Donar discovers who is behind the lein he is also likely to start breaking things. And planets.Quote: This is the one thing that makes Chiaki very angry. Of course she's not one to let anger make her reckless - she knows when she's outmatched and tries to enlist a lot of help. She may be the one who gladly tells Donar about it if someone else doesn't get to it first. If she thinks that might fail, this may even tempt her to speak to the Hooded Hood.That's a bargain she doesn't want to make. But don't worry, we'll be hearing planety more about this in Untold Tales to come - to the point where lots more people begin to take an active interest. Quote: Quote: The person responsible for making sure that occult pacts are honoured? That would be the acting sorcerer supreme.Quote: That may be one hell of a rift between Liu Xi and Vinnie. In a small background story that's been playing out for a while, they're already been on shaky ground - Liu Xi is still trying not to let him get *too* close - because of what happened with Vinnie and Kerry, and the fact that she's worried he'll still go back to that. Added to the fact that being Sorcerer Supreme, and her friends being Lair Legion (and possibly her as well) she's protecting herself from bigger heartbreak in the future when Vinnie has to do something cruel to them.It's a tension Vinnie feels. What stage do you think Liu Xi and Vinnie are at just now? They seem to be actually dating. She's referred to him as her boyfriend, I think? Are they sleeping together yet? if so then that'd be Liu Xi's first more-than-one-night physical relationship. Quote: But Vinnie doing something cruel to Liu Xi, afterward she's going to have to reach deep into her soul and character just to forgive him. And this is something even Chiaki won't be able to help her with, except that the Samurai may see Liu Xi's pain and speak to Vinnie directly about making things right so he doesn't lose the closest friend he's ever had.I don't think Vinnie would be cruel; but he might have to do something he felt was neccessary. | |||||||
