He can't really sneak around the mansion and pretend to be Hatman though, the LL knows he's supposed to be in jail.
> > The point of that whole background story is that the Manga Shoggoth's timing couldn't be better. Presented with a disheveled and ranting Chronicler who was more than likely insane, asserting his superiority and making threats? The thought of being forced to kill him probably entered Lara's mind. Maybe being assaulted by the Chronicler convinced her of it, too. The main reason she might hesitate to do so is even after reading up on Parodyverse history she's not sure who the new Chronicler would be, and it could be someone worse.

She'd might try to kick him out of his stronghold first - that part is as easy as grabbing him and forcing him to be somewhere else.
Either way, if she thinks he's insane, and he's resorted to assaulting and threatening her...then let's say the Manga Shoggoth arrived just in time. If he was sane, she might try to defuse things by apologizing. Since he isn't, that wouldn't help, and she'd be forced to unleash fury upon him.

Noted. I asked so I wouldn't find out 3 weeks later that I was supposed to resolve it.
> Things you could follow up if you chose include the interview with Anna and Liu Xi's feelings about fleeing the scene and maybe somehow finding out that Hatty's now in custody. Next time will also cover Yuki and Glory finding something rather suspicious on the island.

Ok.
