    Ah, but that's a quote from Cap (or Roy Thomas)


Comics writing rarely reflects human nature. They're usually way more positive than reality.



    Quote:
    Maybe they're more like war films of events like Pearl harbor?


They probably would be, including being way more rare than scifi/fantasy/superhero films.



    Quote:

      Quote:
      Music and movies are driven by the content of the society they're in. So the music of the PV probably refers to more ridiculous things than the music of her home. Generally the same, though, because music evolves worldwide about the same.



    Quote:
    Wde know that various real-world celebrities also exist in the Parodyverse, though, because there have been... interactions. And of course, CSFB! and other hipster heroes constantly make cultural references based upon real-world people, prroducts, and media.


That would be normal unless the universe is *really* drastically different.



    Quote:
    It's not a point that's examined very often.


I actually thought about it a lot, what it would be like for Lara to be immortal. Most of that thought has been rolled into her personality: The fear of attaching to people only to watch them die; Unwillingness to wed or have children that she'll inevitably outlive and forget about; and finally, her reluctance to look back once she makes a decision.

That last one is the reason she was gone from the PV so long after disappearing. She wasn't sure if she would ever come back.



    Quote:

      Quote:
      Faite abandons her previous life just beyond that point so she doesn't have to worry about remembering all of the people she's forgotten.



    Quote:
    That in itself is rather sad.


Faite has learned through bitter experience that it's way less heartbreaking than remaining a part of those lives. Though it also faintly reflects that unlike Lara, who's been avoiding a lot of human contact, Faite has been immersing herself in it, and suffering the consequences.
