      Hatty's used a few villain caps before - noticably going one-on-one with Onslaughter - so he's usually prepared for the mental backlash. In Dancer's Far Off story where Jay was amnesiac he hadn't got those defences and interesting things happened.



    Quote:
    Even so, he's going to feel like he's looping a nightmare where he ripped two people to pieces.


As you'll see at the end of this storyline, Hatty's going to have rather more than that to worry about.

      Quote:
      He has bought local hats before now as a means of getting instant translation skills.



    Quote:
    I always wondered about that trick: Are there grades of functionality for that? If he goes to Japan and buys a cap aimed tourists, would he speak Japanese badly? Since Chiaki's headband holds the collective experience of someone born and raised there, he could speak fluently and confidently, and know all the traditions and customs, perhaps.


I think your surmise would be right.


    Quote:
    Of course the one drawback is that it holds the collective experience of a *female* born and raised in Japan, so poor Hatman might phrase things in a way that make people think he's weird.


Indeed.


    Quote:
    He [poster-Jay] tied in the Zdenka storyline a few times, so I assumed he wanted to follow that path.


Posters change. There was a time when poster-Jay and poster-Whitney were happy to depict their fictional characters sleeping together. That would have been a bit weird when poster-Whit got married so we moved things on in the PVB. Now poster-Jay's hitched too so maybe it feels a bit strange having his fictional avatar of the same name running around with a hot wolf-girl who's not got the same name as Mrs Boaz? I don't know.


    Quote:
    But I'm also suspicious about the Sorceress' return, as in there might be more than just a casual reunion.


There's a lot of old history there for sure. And there are other old flames in Jay's life that might be around, including the one who drained his blood and tried to turn him into a vampire.

          Noted. At least one of these is correct.

          Darn, that might make my score -3.

    -4 then?


Possibly. Maths is so fickle.
