Given her design specs, isn't that assault with a deadly weapon?




Just occasionally I like to use Yuki to push someone out of their comfort zone.







One wrinkle in this is that Maggie sees people's "hearts", their basic natures. That's not quite the same as seeing their sins, mistakes, shames, or even crimes. Nor, as a child, is she very well equipped to interpret what she senses.




I'm not sure Mags' gifts would work on the Shoggoth or Faite.

Re Lara, Mags doesn't have a "murder sense" like Exu the Doomherald. A mother who had killed to defend her baby might seem bright and true. An accountant who cheated his clients and taxes might register as a horrid person. Nor could Mags tell why somebody might have a dark heart.







One reason is probably that no-one really wanted to hear what he might answer. After all this time the Shoggoth is still alien and terrifying even to his team. Every time they think they know him he reveals some new disturbing facet.




Inevitably. He's speaking absolute truth to Yuki.




Presumably her power-set would only allow resurrection at the instant of death.







Noted next issue.




It's hard to find now, but it could be harder. I doubt any obfuscation would deter the Hood for long; only put the reason for delay on his to-do list.
