The Simurgh doesn't need to move to look at him, if she moved it's because she wanted people (the PRT, Cauldron, Various other governments, random capes, etc...) to react to her paying attention to BB since they don't know her range is effectively unlimited.
To be fair to them, he killed civilians and heroes, not just villains.
However you're right it's fucked up, it's also a fairly standard response of a bureaucracy to being shown as being at fault.
No argument, but Tanya is mentally an adult.
Maybe, but I don't see it. More like her abilities gave her a different set of tools than the average wizard. It's not that the average wizard will try and subdue Pixies because they don't want to kill them - they'll do so because a paralysis/knockout...
I suggest you don't provide any details on the injury and why it can't be healed, just that it can't be healed. However if you want it to be something that can't be healed have some cape other than Panacea (i.e a cape that normally can heal brain injuries) try and heal it and fail for whatever...
Umm...no. Employing violence there was quite appropriate, even expected. The difference is the level and speed of deploying violence and the control and confidence she displayed while doing so.
Pixies might not be super dangerous mage killers like Baslisks or Dragons but they're still far from...
@CapCaverna I really enjoyed the chapter, especially Piggot addressing her and Armsmaster's colossal screw-ups, however one nitpick concerning the way you describe Velocity's fate, made worse because it's so common in the fandom:
While it's certainly possible the PRT can't get him immediate...
I don't see it.
She does not AFAIK consider violence acceptable or good, she does however believe she'll be executed if she doesn't act like a hyper-nationalistic patriotic idiot, which people around her misinterpret as being bloodthirsty because of her lack of communication or social skills...
Glad to hear that.
I'm quite sure her standards were warped in her first life - they conclude they're "average" because they only reached second place in a national level contest.
As to her personal ethics, how do you think they were warped by the military service?
No, Tanya is definitely not suffering from depression.
You could justify an alternate Tanya with PTSD or other trauma related issues, but the one you have up to now didn't show any symptoms I would have expected to go with that so I suggest you avoid that.
People have made an argument for her...
Fixed.
When was the last time you saw a bureaucracy admit fault without being forced to? And that's with mostly honest organizations in stable countries, not the sort of mess the PRT is.
This is LONG past the point where it would have been possible for him to prove he isn't mastering her. Even if he didn't have any MAster powers and the PRT was willing to help it would take a lot of effort to prove that, with the PRT not having any interest in helping and him having proven he is...
No, I'm not off, although I may not have been clear.
I never questioned that Epoch didn't intend to kill Boomer, but that's not what Fletchette saw and the Adepts will find it impossible to prove, and very difficult to even present a reasonable doubt that they worked together with Rune to...
As a general discussion on the Felony murder rule you may have a point, but in the specific scene in this story it's not "some other person in the group killed someone and they couldn't have stopper them". Rather the Adepts brought Boomer to where Rune could hit him and held him while she did...
That's not how it works. You don't need evidence to assume the people nominally in charge were the ones giving orders, and in the case of advocacy groups they generally assume that whoever they're advocating against is at fault unless there's abundant evidence they weren't (and sometimes even...
The YG rules won't get rewritten before Taylor is 18 because of any actions Taylor or Emma do - those sort of beurocratic actions take too long.
More importantly, there's no mention of "their punishments being ignored by a whole department using a loophole found and exploited by Taylor" (who the...
No, I can't see this being true.
Even without Worm's culture of heroes and villains the sort of people who wail "for the children" would consider being explaited and/or forced to do X a lot worse than children deciding to do X on their own.
With the culture we see they'd be all in favor of...
