Talk To Glowfic Characters

So we've started answering comments in "How To Read Effulgence" in character, and that's not really the ideal platform for those conversations. This is! You may address characters here and we may opt to answer in character. You will get a kind of loosely "backstage" out-of-continuity version of the character (in continuity proper, you cannot talk to them, since you aren't there) and if you want them at a specific (past relative to where we're writing) point in time, feel free to specify (e.g. "Addy in 1932", "Shell in her box", "the Joker while committed", "Minus right after he woke up from turning", "the alethiometer on the subject of 1207").

Any glowfic author may use this thread to receive questions.

The Bell checklist doesn't imply immunity to Jane transport, even though it does immunize against the rogue mint protocol. Damage control would look like "hoping we found out soon enough to banish her Downside as a present for the admin, before she got up to too much". If she thought of that before we did and wished against it - well, we could confine her to a single world until and unless she got a Milliways door, but we might have to evacuate it of all magic things that we didn't want experimented on. If she got a Milliways door, she could still be potentially taken down by the bar security - they have to have good security, there - if she were up to anything in the bar proper, and the door would only take her to Aurum without help. So, basically we'd have to evacuate Aurum and wherever she was when it happened of key magical persons, then keep a guard on her to make sure she didn't convince anyone to take her home with them.

Addy-me-Kaylo-Lazarus form a sort of magic nerd spectrum from practice to theory. I'm not sure what axis you were hoping to judge us on.

If you had to take Addy down in a hurry, you could also sic Callahan on her.

Oh, yes, that's also a possible solution. Assuming Callahan is amenable to being sicced.
