Reply Subj: Of course, it would be hard to collect when the company is nothing but ash.

      So if she made a change to one of the Laws of Physics she might not even remember having done it, having sealed off her own knowledge of it. Faite might be suspecting herself but ignoring the temptation to abandon her project to find out.

    That's possible too. She might have changed something a long time ago that she since forgot about because she lost her own personal awareness of the changes she made along with the ability to see and feel everything at once. She relies on only her memory now, which being human, is somewhat faulty.


It raises interesting questions about current self vs past self. I know that I made decisions in the past that I would make diffeently today, There are a few things for which I would like to go back in time and punch previous-me. And that's me with a functiong memory to recall why I made those decisions at the time. How much more of a dichotomy might there be between a previous omnipotent self and a current limited one with a newfound sense of humanity?

      And if that's true for her then it might be true for other cosmic entities also. One of them may have done the deed and erased their own perception of doing it.



    Quote:
    Not to mention all of the entities that are long gone, but could have set something up ahead of time. Like the former Destroyer of Tales, the Moderator, or back when the younger Hooded Hood was still getting accustomed to his powers.


The Hood has retconned his early self and all his works.

    I've actually tried changing the perspective already, but not the ordering. It really wasn't very good, though, because I axed most of it on the *first* re-reading.


Self-imposed quality control is good but has to be tempered.

    Adding comments about the new part:



    Quote:
    I can't help but think Yuki wouldn't have helped a bunch of vampires at all if it wasn't for the fact that the Lair Legion can use as many allies or people who owe them favors as possible. Unlike Hatman, she can see the positive aspects of staying in a neutral grey area. It's a completely new era.


My thinking was that Yuki would be more about gathering intel on this case than on opposing a very powerful potential opponent. This is the first time any Legionnaire other than Vinnie has met Vrykolakas (I think). And now Yuki is aware of his physical and political power and something of the "Protocols" that have prevented a war beween the living and the undead. This is important knowledge.

But I also figured that Yuki is a bit reckless when it comes to chasing a mystery, so she'd jump in there anyway.
