> That bit about Chiaki will fit somewhat with a post I actually planned to make 3 days ago but delayed because of internet problems.
|
It's almost like Faite planned it that way!
> The real questions with Chiaki, though, are: Whether it would be safe for her to show her face around the Lair Mansion at this point, or if it would result in violence. And whether she would dare to anyway, because she still has a soft spot for Hatman and wouldn't want to show him that kind of disrespect, if he was inclined to bring her in.
|
If there's a legal All Points Bulletin requiring Chiaki to be detained for questioning, appearing before a licensed law enforcer - even the Legion - poses a tricky ethical dilemma for that enforcer. Technically they should detain her. I guess Chiaki would be smart enough only to put someone in that situation if she needed them to actually make a tough decision on it.
> It's plenty believable that Lara has a chat with Lisa because she's can zap herself across the universe from wherever Shen Rae took her. I wonder what the Chronicler's opinion of her would be now.
|
I suspect he was plainly speaking his mind when they last met.
> Liu Xi has lots of decisions to make. I did hint she would be going to college, but I wasn't sure yet if she would live on campus or at the Lair Mansion. It seems she can't live with Chiaki at the moment (which might have been a problem anyway considering her past).
|
I'm keen to see Chiaki develop a life and cast outside the Mansion. Too much of our cast is focussed there these days, which takes the PV that one extra step away from "grounded in reality".
It might seem strange to say that about a genre with absurbity and paranomal powers as major tropes, but actually all of that makes the grounding even more neccessary. That's why I endorse locations like the Bean & Donut and Paradopolis U - and anywhere that the extraordinary can be showcased with an ordinary backdrop.
