I had a lot of things in mind, beyond trying to have them....
First one is setting up Bakuda's station of the canon, while also taking a look at what the general state of things is. The Empire's bullish. And also a joke from a neighbour who's overheard the activities in the third segment and drawn the wrong. conclusions. Lib1rn is supposedly Lisa Wilbourn, gathering information. (Too many people use The All Seeing Eye, it's a bloody cliche). It's setting up the sense that something is about to come to a head (And not necessarily the canon something either)
Second part, I might've overthought. Someone's looking at the closest thing to home. It's a thread that's been looked at (Hence the page 22), but then ignored for a long time. There's supposed to be some sort a sense of alienation and seperation from it. Even if it is a little amusing. (Also, The Hairy Lemon and Bang Bang really did exist - it's a long story). Maybe thinking about 'home'. Some of these are somewhat 'Irish' memes. An American audience isn't supposed to get them....
The third part is ringing bells for more than a few things:
Actually reveal what the video might've been like and give it a soundtrack. And add some self-deprecation.
Bernstein Beer is to show that the city has a Jewish community that's getting hassled (I think.... Yiddish idioms != my thing and i didn't want to overdo it)
Dendromedary's comment about this not being put together in one night is telling - both because it sort of was, and wasn't at the same time.
Posting the video has revealed a lot about his power. Enough for people to make guesses....
....That may still be wrong. Hence Void Cowboy makes a reasonably insightful point, he's wrong, but not stupid. It's a logical enough conclusion. (Contrary to his usual fandom portrayal)
KNO's postings, and the comment about Fighting Monsters are meant to foreshadow something upcoming. See the Nazi's being bullish up above for further hints.
Tiron Heel indicates that Kaiser is, on some level, being made aware of Jaeger. The link being the phrase 'Day of the Rope', and the reference to The Turner Diaries. (I feel so dirty). The phrase will appear again. It's supposed to be a touchstone.
In related news, Lehane's specific comment about the Jaeger/Hunter comparison is also supposed to be just a little telling in light of the above. Something about hate.
It's also finally the only way I could think of to reveal that the Protectorate already knew about the kid - they gave him a codename, which (while also being both an in-joke, is another slice of foreshadowing for the future, considering the original 'Chariot') indicates they know a lot more than he thinks. Which is an important hint that other people have plans first person perspective cannot know.
The Protectorate, on some level, even individually, are trying to reach out rather than be an omnipresent bullying authority.
And I've probably overwrought the whole bloody thing, but so it goes.
Even the title is a reference to the Victorian trope of random white guy showing up knowing better than the savage natives and leading them to salvation from their wicked and uncivilised ways....... like so many other SI fics.
Nobody'll ever notice or make the links. Like decrypting the voyager record.
