Unanswered Questions from the Alice-verse
improvnerd:
What if their goal on Earth wasn't to save the humans, but terrestrial life in general?
That's consistent with the blink. Move most of humanity off-planet, but leave a small human population since they are an indigenous species.
Of course, if that population gets out of balance, it might need to be "managed', like bears in national parks, or rabbits in Australia.
BenRG:
@Improvnerd,
Which raises the possibility that there are a lot of unwilling immortals like Alice running around. The Blink turned them into the planet's immune system. A white blood cell doesn't have mercy and neither does Alice, either with 'external infectious agents' like Ardent and Gavia or 'malignant mutations' like Jeb.
improvnerd:
Seems like there could be several possible scenarios:
1. Alice is part of, or in cahoots with whatever caused the blink.
2. Alice is opposed to whatever caused the blink.
3. Alice is a super powerful being who happened to live through the blink, and is just trying to get by, in accordance with her own moral code.
improvnerd:
One other possible overall scenario:
The blinkers are a race that consider humans a delicacy, but some are willing to pay extra for "free range" ones.
Zebediah:
That's an interesting thought. I mean, any alien race who likes to dine on organically-raised humans is currently out of luck, since we're basically all chemically contaminated now.
So is Alice fighting the aliens or is she managing the diner for them? ♪ You can eat anyone you want at Alice's Restaurant (excepting Alice...) ♪ :lol:
