KILL SIX BILLION DEMONS: hell yeah, punch that fuckin fish

What is YISUN?
	Mother
	A lie we tell ourselves to have a purpose
	Bliss
	A paradox with no solution
	Father
	A strong female protagonist
	The weakest thing there is and the smallest crawling thing
	Creator
	Everything in this miserable and hellish existence
	A solution with no paradoxes

It looks like a broken hilt, but it cuts hella good. So it may be a sword.

I think you've nailed it with this one.

A maybe sword in this context is basically a sword that exists in every possibility of cutting at once. So like.. if you were a novice and had it, you'd murder yourself with every possible way you could gently caress up in an instant. If you are really good and unpredictable though, then its basically a sword that lets you attack someone in every possible way that you could conceive all at same time. Potentially infinite cuts from all possible angles in the blink of an eye if you are impossibly creative. Theres a few versions of it out there in various sci-fi things but that's the gist.

So yeah, our angel friend here is going to be in pieces real soon.

Benson Cunningham: Dec 9, 2006; Chief of J.U.N.K.E.R. H.Q.

In The Scar by China Mieville, one of the main characters has a Possibility Blade that cuts more based on how.... expertly randomly... you swing it. It was pretty cool. Too bad the guy wielding it was anything but.

Maya is Meti's lovely student, so this will probably be an even match instead of Juggs receiving an absolute curbstomp.

If she's Meti's worst student, that probably means she's the best with a sword.

Her best students are probably enjoying nice, peaceful lives as farmers.

Mazerunner: Apr 22, 2010; Good Hunter, what... what is this post?

I have just come to a realization! This scroll by Broken Sword contains no secrets of his swordsmanship. What this reveals is his highest ideal. In the first state, man and sword become one and each other. Here, even a blade of grass can be used as a lethal weapon. In the next stage, the sword resides not in the hand but in the heart. Even without a weapon, the warrior can slay his enemy from a hundred paces. But the ultimate ideal is when the sword disappears altogether. The warrior embraces all around him. The desire to kill no longer exists. Only peace remains.

So what you're saying is that the desire to kill has been cut?

From when the bullet was fired, it appears she can see all possible paths along which she cuts, and selects the right one. Similar to how she was able to avoid the thrown knife by seeing all paths the knife could take (judging based upon the way it was presented artistically).

Or not.

Just reread K6BD this afternoon, which clarified things a great deal, now being able to pick things out. Such as, the prophesy cartoon. Clearly there are our devil and angel friends to either side of Alison, but to the farthest right is that Auntie Maya? I think I can account for the rest of the characters portrayed.

I think an observer is going to have hard time figuring out what blood came from which person in that room.

I think it's supposed to be scarring. Which might be why she pins her hair the way she does.
