    ...because if the kids ask Liu Xi a similar opening question to what they asked Vinnie, she'll actually explain what the phrase means. Fortunately she's good at explaining things, as long as Visionary isn't within earshot it should turn out fine.


One reason Liu Xi isn't in this story is that she's far too sensible. Samantha plays that role to some degree but has a far more sceptical, non-mystical view of the world that helped contract with her best friends being a fairy princess and a data anomaly fabulous beast. These days I can't help writing Sam as if she's a 14-year old Bruce Wayne.

    Everyone really did have a purpose - Vinnie was needed for his um, sorcery, Magweed and Griffin to actually see what needed fixing, and Samantha for her investigative logic. Any single one of them simply couldn't have done the job.


That's how I like to use my guest stars, giving each of them a role in solving the problem somehow.

    The real question is, why is Vinnie always carrying around things he needs for Liu Xi later on?


I think that object probably was a condom.
