I could see Bitch react to the mention of Siberian’s creator. She looked startled, then scowled.
…you okay?
“You found them?” Tattletale asked. “Siberian and Legend?”
“Yeah. Legend told me to scram, in case Bonesaw deploys the threat she’s been holding over our heads, and so I don’t get in the way. I would have fought to stay, but he’s an intimidating guy to argue with.”
That’s fair. I wouldn’t want to argue with him either, even if I don’t think he’s the type to get aggressive about it.
It’s more a sort of… Dumbledore-esque kind of intimidation.
Grue nodded. “I wouldn’t feel bad about it. It means we can serve as backup if the heroes lose.”
“And this threat? Do we know what it is? Some zombie apocalypse?” Regent asked.
Your turn, Lisa.
“No.” Tattletale shook her head. “She sees herself as an artist. She’s going to want to do something that catches us off guard, something that scares us in a way that simple horror movie monsters don’t.”
Hmm.
Not to mention that she herself doesn’t seem to consider her usual creations scary.
I feel like she’d do something that’s not going to make everyone the same. She’s not going to mass-produce her art, y’know, so she makes it so each one should have a unique touch.
Hmmmm.
Something that takes people’s inner demons and puts them on the outside?
Some kind of subtle change that puts everyone right into the Uncanny Valley? Except Bonesaw might not have the concept of that.
Making people disturbingly like the Endbringers?
Hm, I suppose all my guesses so far are appearance-related. That doesn’t really sound like Bonesaw’s style.
Forcing people to have trigger events and/or making them not have control over their powers?
There are a lot of ways this could go.
