Quote: Quote: I'd prefer to leave the bathrooms problematic for now. Given that Omega House is in a "sensitive" spot Liu Xi might realise that adding additional rooms in additional dimensions may not be the best idea from a security point of view.Quote: She doesn't really add dimensions for that - she adds the bathroom into the "space between". As in somehow the space between two walls becomes large enough to hold an entire bathroom. It's probably best not to think about how, or where the plumbing goes, or how it works.Sounds to me sufficiently close to messing with spaces to constitute a risk. But more importantly there needs to be in-story rationale to prevent easy solutions. Or to put it another way: Cressida the Wonder Worm can transmute any object to any other object. Theoretically she could transform honey to money or hash to cash and thud would never have to work again. But since he was a down-on-his-luck sort of hero that would have destoryed his setting and changed the character entirely. Likewise ultra-rich thud could have set up Sarah in her own Broadway show, bought ManMan a mansion, and funded a hostile takeover of The Daily Trombone so it would never print another anti-sperhero story again. But none of that would have left us with a more satisfying status quo. Happy heroes aren't always interesting ones. Quote: Quote: Quote: That dean better not make Yuki have another chat with him. She already talked to him once when the university gave Liu Xi trouble with admission.Quote: Quote: There's a number of reasons he doesn't like superheroes and that may be one of them.Quote: Yuki was polite, but very determined. She also threatened to visit his office daily.That's what restraining orders are for. | |||||||
