[OOC][PLOT] The Seventh Thread of Planning for Arc 1 - Arrivals

[robkelk]

That compresses the timeline enough for Ben to get a Taiga persocom for Valentine's Day.

We have to make a few assumptions:

• Somebody at Piffle is smart enough to realize what happened to them without it being explained by a manager (Chitose or Minoru might, but I suspect Zima with his government databases would notice the discrepencies as soon as he went online the first time);
  
• Somebody (Yumi? Yuzuki? Sumomo?) would have to watch Toradora as soon as they realize what's happened, and suggest making a "palmtop Taiga";
  
• Piffle would have to have their rapid-prototyping fabricator (3D printer) online early;
  
• Ottawa has to be Kobayashi &co.'s first stop; and
  
• The Taiga Persocom that Ben gets is the prototype.
  

Which means the Persocom Unison Device that Tomo somebody gets in order to become a magical girl wouldn't be built for a long, long time - definitely not until the beta-testing is completed.

EDIT: As for the "archiving" of memories, that sounds suspiciously like what happened to Freya in Chobits canon.
