The interesting thing here is the reaction to Motoko mentioning Fujimura. That makes it clear the idiots she's dealing with don't know about her relationship to him and think she's just "Oni's sister". While it's possible Fujimura didn't make it clear to the other TC bosses he was working with...

I agree with the first, but not the second. It doesn't matter if things worked out well or not, Hiromi acting like she knows best without consulting with Motoko, or worse doing what she knows Motoko would not agree to will reduce the level of trust. Exception would be if it's a one-off and...

So? The fact is Motoko was scared of one and not the other, if that doesn't make sense from an objective POV? That's fine because human emotional reactions rarely make sense from an emotional POV.

Not really. Motoko was already past the point of having more money they she needed, and the whole point of the argument was that she was scared of the rock star life.

He knows that, but he still needs to keep up appearances. Why do you think he assigned Jun and Motoko's friend to guard Jun?

I had been wondering why she wasn't producing any BD recently, I suppose if she's actually deluded herself into thinking no one would want to see them that explains that. I'm guessing that means no BD (and thus no reactions to BD) of Motoko playing RockerGirl band...

Nice chapter, the way the paper contract was described I'm guessing there was something fishy there that they missed? Probably referencing a different revision than the one they agreed upon.

I wonder what the reactions to that BD would be if she shares it?

Several reasons 1)Good body armor is very expensive. Most people who get ahold of body armor like Motoko's crew did either have to sell it to buy stuff they need more or use it until its damaged and then can't afford to have it fixed. 2)While armor is good, image is also very important, Motoko's...

@49ersfootball I'd appreciate it if you stopped tagging me in this thread.

Very nice chapter, and interesting take on what to focus on in the reprimand. That's certainly a valid issue but not what I would have focused on if I was the Lt. Everyone screws up on occasion no matter how careful you are and while he certainly should have been more careful I would have...

That isn't fair to the readers and giving SB too much credit. While there were a bunch of silly readers who got out of hand, when the SB moderators intervened they made it clear that the content of the chapter was problematical as well, although they were "generous" enough to let it go unless...

It's equally possibly that without him there wouldn't have been a failed February(march) revolution and instead a successful revolution in July. The point isn't that his death/disappearance wouldn't cause butterflies, but that there were a bunch of other people around who could and would take...

Highly unlikely. This is not something that the SI would be able to remember enough to solve, or even if he did belivably solve even if he could convince Ford he comes from the future.

Nope. If you go by WoG with her shield dropping for several seconds GG is easily subdued by any guy with a gun who just kept shooting at her. If you go with a more logical small fraction of a second you'd need two guys with guns, or a molotov cocktail and a gun, or some gas attack, or any number...
