    Once the LL or their allies push back like that the superhero war begins.



    Quote:
    The above assumes the war has *already* begun - Lara doesn't want to be the cause of a war, but if she can stop one through a single violent act (without it causing even more problems) she sure will. Either way, the point is that she wouldn't be doing like Hatman and when faced with killing someone to stop a war, saying "there has to be another way". There's a huge personality difference there, and it could be shocking to the LL someday since they might not really know what she's capable of.


The historic parallel that comes to mind is the killing of Archduke Ferdinand before World War 1.

      If Graham has evidence that would stand up in court he'd use it. it's probably fair to assume he doesn't.



    Quote:
    Maybe not *yet*, but he has detectives to find that evidence. And yes, it's probably more likely once those detectives find that evidence (he may send them in for a "light touch" investigation - keep your head down, keep quiet, and gather evidence) he'd just file an indictment instead of making a showy arrest. Then the state police would be forced to do the arresting part for him.


For every story of one of our heroic characters who does clever undercover stuff there's probbaly a dozen unknowns in landfill somewhere who got too close to a breakthrough.

But don't worry. Plots are progressing in GMY, and there's plenty more to cover yet.
