Alice Grove MCDLT - December 2016
BenRG:
Whatever that 'Mr Church' thing is, it is clearly pure Clarke-tech. In essence, he blink-teleported over to Alice.
Skewbrow:
^ Yup! Church didn't move. He just arrived.

I called it last month. He's not just stealthy. He's super-fast. That's what Alice noticed when she first saw him. She's aware of her surroundings, as any super-soldier must be. She knows he wasn't there, then he suddenly was.
jheartney:
Sounds like Alice's brilliant plan to run away wouldn't have worked very well; how do you run from something capable of near-infinite speed?
Alice, as powerful as she is, has never struck me as particularly smart. She's going to have to outthink Pate/Church if she wants to get out of this. The key would have to be understanding whatever hold Pate has over Church. Mere force won't get you anywhere in this situation, and that's not a place Alice is familiar with.
BenRG:
One thing that was interesting was the threat that Pate chose to make. Did he suspect that Alice would rather die than help him, so a threat against one of her charges was the only way to intimidate her? Or is it possible that, unlike Sedna, Alice really is practically indestructible, even for a being of Mr Church's abilities?
