Then wherever she is, she won't be happy when she hears about it.





I'm curious if Anna would be affected at all. The one factor (besides physical construction) that differs her from humans a lot is that she chooses her memories to keep. At the same time, though, it may be that Hallie only has a memory advantage because she stores hers elsewhere, away from the Drop Bears' influence, and Anna's memories are just as prone to corruption.





I did that. Unfortunately when I use my own cast, readership drops to near zero. It's probably my own fault for placing them in unexplored corners of the Parodyverse where they don't usually affect the Lair Legion unless they come in direct contact with them.





Makes sense to do paying work first. I'd say you're both lucky and brave at this point - because new professional writers sometimes are either slapped with, or afraid of being slapped with, contractual gag orders that prevent them from associating with any non-pro writers. So you're lucky you still can visit and read.








He's got the leeway, but I'm trying to cover the bases.

Why? Because historically, posters with high-profile characters who stop visiting the board one day stop by, read a few things, and choose one of two things: Either to hand the character off to the care of the writers here officially, or realize they don't recognize the character anymore, and ask for its retirement. For the moment, we now have both covered.

Hatman isn't the only one in danger of that - we also have Dancer (who nearly permanently moved away in-story already once) and Kerry as well. And, of course, and character too similar in name to ones owned by Marvel or D.C.





It's the first rule of government spending. Show something expensive, or lose the funding.





This is more of a government funded endeavor, weapons development like Anna was - only they consider Anna a failure because she wouldn't accept command.





So far, Faite gave Hatman that choice, which might just save him from the Carnifex' blade - or at the very least, now Hatman is warned that a "hunter" is out to kill him first. Long ago, she gave Liu Xi Xian something that at the very least can keep the universe from being destroyed in extreme cases (or possible cause it). And the simplest and most subtle one, that she and the Hooded Hood may be working on the same page with certain things at the moment.





It would have to be done in a way so Liu Xi's justifications are *very* hard to argue with. Which is why it hasn't been done yet.





The problem is, Chiaki is very hard to push to anger. She's very zen, and becomes more focused under pressure, but hasn't really become angry yet. She has been cornered once, and focused it inward, but hasn't lashed out.





Chiaki can have incredible focus when she's angered - she might not bother to try to get into the tower, just content that she can mess with anything that comes in or out. Or at least giving him the impression that she can. In her opinion, eventually everything has a chink in the armor, and opportunity inevitably presents itself.

The funny thing about that is, I'm not entirely sure if the Carnifex would be annoyed or impressed that someone's relentlessly hunting and stalking him.








I would just wait until the Lynchpin kills her for me. It may be inevitable.





I do remember that Hatman threatened that he was protecting the orphanage.








Probably.
