Nanoha StrikerS
EP 13
Well, it seems I've finally caught up with everyone, despite the number of 16hr days I've been working lately...
Mild spoilers in white:

First off: Hey! You don't talk about Rein-chan like that, got it, tiny? Grr.
But it does seem they have something in common beyond size. Although I wonder what makes them so small, while the first Reinforce was full-sized. Maybe Unison Devices grow up really slowly? Big Grin
Vita, Rein's "lord"? Still, the enemy seems to lack intel on the Aces (for that matter, so do parts of the TSAB -- more later).
Signum: "Eh, it's Fate's car -- let's go wind up her odometer."
"Sister Sarah" (yeah, I know, but that's how it *sounds*) seemed pretty paranoid about Vivio. I wonder if artificial life forms have a bad rep, and if this could tie in with Erio's comments later.
Of course, what this means for Fate should be obvious.
Vivio's eyes: significant of anything?
Nanoha: "Fate-chan, Hayate-chan... help! Please?" ROFTLMAO.
Nanoha's definitely not bad with kids, but she doesn't have Fate's touch.
Forward Chorus: "WE'RE SORRY!"
And speaking of, Erio and Caro's reaction to being reminded of Fate's "mothering": PRICELESS!
Subaru sucks at paperwork. BIG surprise.
I wonder what she was about to say before Tea finger-flicked her.
Chrono get flustered at Fate calling him "Big Brother." C'mon, Chrono, take it like a man. You've got KIDS of your own, for cryin' out loud! (and just when did THAT happen?!? I'm gonna have to start collecting the manga or something to fill in these plotholes, aren't I?)
If I'm getting this right, it sounds like The Fall is slowly showing up in more and more of Carim's predictions. If her predictions really *are* completely random in time and space, within her stated window, then the increasing rate of incidence implies an event that is large, widespread, and with far-reaching repercussions. And as anyone who works intelligence can tell you, the more "hits" you have on something, the better you can filter out the chaff and refine your grip on the "hard" elements of the data.
One thing I notice they don't touch on is whether her predictions are merely probabilities, or dead-certain futures unless someone acts on the prediction. Maybe they don't know. But I imagine getting into that would take an entire episode of talking heads, and we probably only have a dozen eps eft, so....
Erio is worried by what Vivio's existence represents. And this hints at some things about Erio himself, as well. And the intimations about Artificial Lifeforms in general are worthy of note.
Well, the land where "crystals and greed combine" is probably Midchildia. The "holy land" is probably Al-Hazred. But what "wings"? Who is the "dead king"? The "Dancing dead" might refer to the ALifers, extrapolating broadly from Erio's hints. The "tower of law" would appear to be the TSAB itself, and I'm assuming the "ship of law" would be the Navy.
Interesting how the Ground Forces don't seem to show up on the hit list. Hm.
Section Six is "deniable." That's... not good. You don't create a deniable, disposable organization with that kind of firepower unless you expect to need it very badly... once. And expect to need to dispose of it, after.
General Fatso's aide seems to know more than he does, and may in fact be steering him for the sake of an outside agenda. Either way, her intel on Hayate appears to be lacking, which implies that Hayate's background, and that of her Knights, is not widely known. I don't know why Fatso keeps calling Hayate a criminal, either -- I don't recall her breaking any laws, unlike Fate, who did but got clemency. This suggests that a cover story was manufactured after the BoD incident was concluded. Admiral Graham's being allowed to retire instead of being court-martialled appears to be an open secret.
Hm? Fate and Nanoha both seem to imply that Hayate was instrumental in getting them both where they were in the TSAB, before joining Section 6. But that doesn't make much sense -- they had seniority (okay, not much). And Nanoha mentions the Yagami family as if it had pull, but AFAIK Hayate *has* no family, aside from the Knights and Admiral Graham -- not exactly a load of useful political connections, there.
Vivio abandons "bro and sis" (let's face it, Caro and Erio are stuck with the roles now. And they're so cute at it) to glomp "Mom" as if she didn't really expect Nanoha to come back. In RL, that's usually a sign of kid who's used to people vanishing on her.
Uh, oh. Hayate appears to be strolling down a path similar to the one that got Nanoha hurt a few years back.
Hayate and the photo album: it was nice to see the Earth Crew again, even if only in snapshot. And... was that the piano music from "The Incredible Hulk" (series, not movie)???
