First off -
Rune and
the phantom? Interesting. I have nothing much to add as of yet, and no idea what to make of
the phantom's successful request to be killed. (Maybe the wolves thought he's the hunter and decided to take the risk now that it's statistically the lowest? But would
the phantom as a hunter really do that on Day1? Or would the wolves think he would?)
Anyway, in hindsight, I think it quite likely
the phantom was an ordo and thus had no qualms about painting a target on his own back (as
Boro phrased it) because he's a staunch supporter of ordos sacrificing themselves for the gifted, and I think he might have also been curious about the opportunity to seize control of the dead thread.
Rune, then, was notably short-tempered yesterDay. I agree with
Rikae that this could have been read as a sign of a nervous gifted, and indeed knowing
Rune I think it's possible he was. Then again he is quite grumpy by nature
and the overwhelming rules hardly seemed to make him happy.
About
Nogrod - well, as I was going to bed yesterDay before the DL, I was starting to think him more and more suspicious, mostly because of his "let's lynch
the phantom" meme but in retrospect I don't really know.
Nogrod is quite a typical Day1 lynch and not because he'd be a wolf awfully often, so I can see the village reacting quite knee-jerkily to him again. I guess the bottom line is that a little rereading wouldn't hurt me.
Just have to add my voice to the choir of "I'd love to see the dead thread now" with
Nog and
the phantom arguing and/or coming up with a master plan and
Rune's head exploding.
*waves*
At work now, but once I can slack a little more I'll be back to comment posts from late yesterDay and early toDay...
