> I admit I was confused about who the hunter is supposed to be, since he starts the chapter as Mark and ends up as Mike. Until the reveal he's the Carnifax I was trying to figure out if he was spiffy or Xander. $\:\)$

Ah. I'd better go fix that typo.

> I am also confused how Samantha and Salieri know that Doorman isn't Hatman. I'm glad to see that CSFB! and company don't know this yet though, as I was hoping we might get some scenes with Doorman playing the good guy, biding his time until he wants to make his move.

I'm assuming Sam and Salieri found the body of D'Ur (and retrieved his Flashlight). I was counting on the boy-genius part to discern the truth; but I admit it's a flaw, a jump in the narrative.

> Vizh with the Power Bracelet was a nice touch (and I really liked the Oath, nice job), though he'll have to give it back to D'ur when the Parodyverse gets set right.

Actually, that was Samantha with the power bracelet. It's how they tracked Vizh to Pittsburgh.

> And good job with the VR stuff. It remains significant but allows the narrative to continue.

I was hoping so.
