Alice Grove MCDLT - THE END...?
A Duck:
When it's a normal bone, no.
When it's a bone from the same kind of being that resisted said point-blank range bullets, apparently yes.
TheEvilDog:
The thing is, Alice has just explained that she and the other super soldiers were the kind of nightmare that necessitated the Blink. They defiance of physics is, to all intent and purposes, the ultimate weapon. So if she and the others are able to survive that kind of damage inflicted on each other, well, the options for outright taking them down using the rules of the universe aren't possible.
In a way, it makes even more sense for Church to survive a blast from an orbital laser but to be finally taken down by a bone shard. Outside tech and rules can't hurt them, so if the rules of the universe can't do that why not use the ones who already break those rules?
Alice's mention of a thought experiment is more descriptive than it originally appears. They are literally demons, beings from outside our understanding of the universe. How can we really understand the rules that govern them when they are the embodiment of Clarke's Third Law?
Sorflakne:
So is Alice slowly losing it (judging by facial expressions), or is she just amused that she can reveal her and the others' true nature now?
A Duck:
Alice had a few of those creepy-smile moments so far. The first one when she attacked Gavia way back at the start of the story.
I'm guessing Alice is just like Church in the sense she has a VERY strong impulse for violence, but she has learned to cope with it much better.
Now, however? I think whatever restraint Alice had is gone. Pate is screwed.
Sorflakne:
I was rereading some old comics to see if I could build on a hypothesis that came to me while writing my previous post when I saw this. Not relevant to the hypothesis, but amusing nonetheless considering Alice and Church's history. Which makes one wonder if the orbital laser is still up there and still functional...
