He's a Chicken I tell ya!!! A Giant Chicken!
But seriously, folks.
The clues all lead to a person either from the Warriors World, or one familar with it. Given that Doug isn't supposed to latch on to transfictionality per say until later in the walk, my position is that said given elminates the second option.
Which leaves us with the premise that this person is from the Warrior's World.
Of whom, there has only been one person mentioned to date that is not effectively an ally of Doug's. Add in the mention of the OverMind System in chapter 12, and then look at Doug's ruminations about Arcanyum's Servant Factor virus.
Personally, I find the similarities rather... Striking. And the Warriors never found out just what happened to Arcanum.
And we have Bob's own half joking comments that DW 2 IS sort of a self insert... but Doug isn't the SI? That leaves one roll open at this point, Quincy. We've seen the proof of that already. That only leaves the question of just who was Quincy before he became Quincy?
Personally, I remain convinced that the clues to this point indcate Arcanum. Just who is right and who is wrong will have to remain unanswered until such a time as Bob completes chapters 14 and 15.
Yes, 15. For some reason I have a feeling about this, a sometimes intuative grasp of plotlines at times. Doug *is* going to find himself in Quincy's office, that scene being the cliff-hanger end of 14... With a final line something along the lines of "YOU!!!"
And whoever You is remains as a tangible wonder until Bob picks it up again at the start of Chapter 15, with quincy going "Yes, it is I....""I was an Otaku before those kids came along and changed the meaning of the word."
