So, uh.

I've basically been shoved to my computer by my spouses to answer questions that I can answer regarding The Halloween Incident.

Under threat of sleeping on the couch forever.

So.

What do people want to know?

I will work until I am a withered husk and beyond that if that's what it takes.

Just as a barometer, this is from a doomed timeline that we don't have people squatting from, right. Because that is a growing concern.

I agree with the general sentiment, but I also want my niece to grow up with as normal a lifestyle as can be afforded to her for as long as possible. So whatever steps I can help take to cut down on the fratricide potential and also keep this whole mess from blowing up in our face, I'm on call for.

Nope! It's from far far beyond the stars! Basically the only thing left was its crypt of sorts and most of its body was falling apart into the darkness.

None of this was supposed to come up until she was in high school!

And uh. Well, there's PROBABLY a more permanent solution that I'm not sure but Setsu and her child have a possible idea to help!

The main issue of what's pinning her down so far is a bracelet created by Hyperborea, and it'll eventually break.

Okay cool. I can cross that one off on the corkboard. Thanks, 'cuz.

Yeah, well, clearly we were off on our predictions by a pretty significant order of magnitude.

Keep me posted on what they come up with, I'll help however I can.

The bracelet is at least a problem I can work my head around - if nothing else I'm the best engineer in this damn city while you've got Shiyoko's brain in a lockbox. So I'll talk with Setsu about that one.

[theheadmonarch]

Not sure why!

You should talk to them honestly.

I mean Shiyoko can help, she just prefers being an airhead most of the time.

[becomeanwarrior]

Would you like my help figuring that out, 'cuz.

I will do so when I can, yes. As you might suspect, my plate is currently a little crowded.

I'm aware, it was more a statement of fact. If Shiyoko wants to help she can, but I won't make her.

[theheadmonarch]

Sure! I'm mostly omnipotent, but I'm not omniscient.

Sure. Just ask her.

I mean, I guess it comes down to 'how did we come to the guess of how long it would take before this happened', I assume Aisey's supercomputer is involved, but I'm not sure.

I will, later, yes. I don't want to put pressure on her.

[theheadmonarch]

Because I avoid doing shit to kids below 14 or 15 because I'm not a creeper!

[becomeanwarrior]

I never said you were, 'cuz. Not like I don't try and avoid getting people that young wrapped up as well for my own reasons.

I'm just trying to figure out how this happened so early compared to what we predicted and how we can minimize that in the future.

[theheadmonarch]

Well the big crisis factor was that incident in April 2022 at her elementary school and then the mess with the Fae.

Those feel like triggers...
