    Less base insults are for those deserving more regard.


She would just shake her head and say "So disappointing"...



    Quote:
    She probably doesn't recognise the symbiotic/parasitic relationship between the two. it is unhealthy, but the Hood would not have his power or likely survive without the Asylum now.


Lara wouldn't have any reason to know that the Hood is bound to the asylum. But she might ask if he ever tried to free himself from it.

    It's usually the sort of thing I'd check out with a poster beforehand, if I had the time. At least it was back when I was in e-mail contact with most posters.


Noted.



    Quote:
    Various mad scientists are credited with discoveries. Various rare elements or processes are deemed to be required which restrict mass access to the technology. And yet somewhere, between 1938 and now, different people have come up with way-out-of-time and unique-to-them advances allowing cyborgs, robots, and most recently life-like humanoid androids. How? Who or what was behind it?


Sounds like part detective work and part archeology.



    Quote:
    Most critical for Yuki was Al B's organic brain/cyborg brain interface, which then allowed robot parts to be driven by a genuine human sentience. That solution was the one that allowed Yuki's current machine/organic balance, a balance that has worked better than pretty much any other cyborg. Was it all tech or was personality a factor?


If it's not something designed in this time period, Yuki might also worry if something is hidden in her new body that would take control away from her someday.



    Quote:
    And then, in that same generation, we have the development of sentient computer AIs that can drive robot bodies; some with extreme efficiency.


Dr. Lia was fully responsible for Anna and Nena's sentient computers. She's one of those scientists that has a touch of artist to her, so she's able to understand very abstract concepts of consciousness and break them down into engineering problems.



    Quote:
    It deels like there's a possible big storyline behind all of this somewhere, and a cyborg PI i the perfect investigator.


And an archeologist.



    Quote:
    Lara would need a very personal enemy; not neccessarily one with goals of conquest or mass destruction, but goals of domination over her and personal destruction: Kilgrave to Jessica Jones rather than Ultron to the Avengers. Lara's at her best when her stories have personal stakes and are character driven, so any villain would need to target that kind of zone.


In Lara's case those are not mutually exclusive; in fact they almost never are. Someone who wants to destroy her would no doubt be willing to destroy everything to get her.

Then again, it could be something as subtle as a teenage crazed stalker - someone nobody takes seriously as a threat yet somehow manages to be creepy enough to really upset Lara.
