> > > And also persuasive. She also would believe that she can easily convince Danny and anyone else she meets to help her.
> > Danny is tricky.
> Possibly, but Liu Xi has two things that will give her an edge: She believes he's a friend, and she's also female, so she already has his attention. Even more so if he likes Asians.

Danny's fairly experienced with girls and he's shrugged off the wiles of VelcroVixen (at least since he's been with Kerry). But he's sometimes a decent kid in spite of himself and might respond to genuine and honest friendship.

> That, and she can do the equivelent with Danny of pointing Donar in a direction and saying "the bad guy is over there".

I'm fairly sure Danny's worked out where the bad guy is. He might not be as clear as to which side Liu Xi is on.

> On a micro level, Chiaki would know something is wrong with one particular person when his or her behavior suddenly is way outside of what she expects. That's the same way she could tell the difference between the real and fake Hatman. While most people would ignore the side comments Doorman makes, Chiaki would fixate on them. She might not react right away, but she'll be making plans, and she'll be on alert.

I could forsee an excellent and dramatic free-for-all with Chiaki fighting her way out of police HQ while fake-Graham and every cop in the city tries to frag her.

> A side possibility, by the way, might be that Chiaki's secretive nature might work against her. That whoever replaced all of Earth's people with Fandoms thought Chiaki was still in Paradopolis, so now the real one is in Antartica and her doppleganger is also in Paradopolis, becoming self-aware and screwing things up for its master. That might be one of the catalysts for what happens in 24 hours - because if the ruse is up, there's no purpose for the charade anymore.

Previously the Space Fandoms have worked like Marvel's Space Phantom; they shift their victim to another dimension and use their genetic template to substitute for them. When the Fandom dies their victim usually returns (but not in the current situation). Usually Fandom and victim never coexist in the same reality.

Of course, that's not to say that couldn't be overcome for the sake of a good story.

> > The Hood is moving very circumspectly, both because the Carnifex's gambit right now is to lure out, map, then neutralise each guardian of the Parodyverse as they get involved, and for another reason yet to be revealed.
> Good thing Lara Night is off-planet then. She may not be a guardian of the Parodyverse, but she's known as one at home. If her timing is right, she might be at home returning Sharon when the Carnifex looks for her, so he ends up missing her entirely.

The Carnifex is already aware of Lara and her capacities from the Moderator Saga.

> This is probably why Faite has an annoying habit of vanishing entirely whenever these things happen, and also why she never fights with anyone directly unless the situation is a choice between that or losing everything. She knows that staying off-radar is key to being the thorn in any super-villain's side. Ironically, she respects the Hooded Hood, so she doesn't hide from him - she knows that as evil as he can be, he respects the balance of the universe.

The Hood's a good ally to have - 90% of the time. It's the 10% that's the killer.
