      I think the LL as a whole will participate in the evaluation; but Yuki's not actually at the Mansion when the new guys return. She's off with Al B. and CSFB! doing some detective work, getting into trouble, and starting up the next story arc.



    Quote:
    That's typical of Yuki, at least.


She's not going to sit around wiaitng for Hatty and G-Eyed to get back.

      Indeed; although with one exception Liu Xi's killings have generally been in self-defence during combat.



    Quote:
    Generally, but not always. Plus she might accept that maybe existing members of the LL get more slack there than new ones - since she killed before she was a member.


I'm sure she'd have those worries.

      Actually, the trap for Lara is that is she goes to the Wonderwall, and especially if she goes at Thugos' bequest, she will "come back changed". Thugos is confident that that "changed" Lara would be willing to join his cadre. He knows something Lara doesn't (or thinks he does). He certainly knows that human concerns and perspectives will seem a lot further away once a person has survived and fully perceived the Wonderwall. The big picture will become more important than individual lives or even indiovidual races.



    Quote:
    I don't remember if I posted it, but there was a segment in one story where Faite equated it to the old saying "You can never go home again". That after visiting the wonderwall, Lara's perspective will have changed enough that she won't feel the same about anyone, and everyone else will see she's changed and they'll change their perspective of her.


That's the trap.


    Quote:
    As an aside, though, Lara has been through a lot of changes. First, she was given these special abilities almost without warning. Then, you can imagine, it's pretty traumatic to change into energy, and even more so to travel impossible distances and through to another universe. Through it all, Lara remained true to herself, and kept connected to her friends. That inspired Faite, in fact, which is what prompted the cosmic being to re-connect with humanity and recover what she lost.


Noted.
