having seen only as far as "miyafiji joins the 501st", and that only to get a flavor for the show, i'm just enjoying the ride sans backstory (in much the same way i did for the Symphony and most of the newer works)

Yeah, Gryphon pretty much turns anything he touches to gold. He's got the Midas Touch of Storytelling.

Might wanna keep better track of this thread, Zojo - you skipped Episode 12 entirely.

The link on the What's New page is b0rked (Bob or Berk or somebody with forums access needs to aware EPU staff of this), but the link from the OWaW main page is (as an Eyrie-component series once put it) very much live and direct:

If someone hasn't beaten me to it I'll let them know -- but I have a phone interview for a job in 5 minutes so it won't be immediately.

Somebody on the Eyrie end has caught it, but I for one am glad of the redundancy.

I found this bit particularly interesting:
Quote:FROM JINORA GM WLSTO ALL WLS STATIONS
EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY ALL WHITE LOTUS SOCIETY ACTIVITIES ARE SUSPENDED PENDING INQUIRY STOP
ALL WHITE LOTUS PERSONNEL REPORT TO AIR TEMPLE ISLAND STOP
THIS IS NOT NEGOTIABLE STOP
JINORA
In the sense, that is, that someone is about to do some serious house cleaning.

Amazing how telegrams do so well at expressing pure fury, isn't it?

Akio may have gotten what he wanted but he's lost a fair number of assets in the process.
The Fog Fleet sub which must have been difficult to obtain, Touga (and the permanence of that loss must have been a surprise), 2 of the Masho (and their armors) are in the heroes control (and the remaining 2 aren't in the best of shape), plus Saionji and Anikin are switching sides (which Akio may have planned for/suspected) bringing a bunch of intel on the Black Rose organization. How mush of the intel is useful is the question. even an incomplete list of the Black Rose's heavy hitters will be helpful for planning though.

And yet, according to Gryphon, Akio feels it was a bargain. What the hell is he planning?

i believe we actually saw the moment of acquisition in a forum short... Nanami took possession from some criminal (duh) organization...

He has the Trinity of Cephiro on their heels, with the Priestess temporarily indisposed, the Prince full of doubt, and the Pillar full of self-recrimination.
He has a child of Asgard and Cephiro in his control, and all that that legacy implies.
He has the most influential man in the Known Galaxy focusing efforts on recovering his granddaughter, rather than devoting that intelligence to keeping track on the machinations of other servitors of Surtur.
He, as a Cephiro "problem," has caused offense to the AEsir, potentially destabilizing a young alliance.
As an outsider, he has demonstrated to some parties the reasons for Diqiu to keep it and its Avatar out of relations with the Big Galaxy.
He has destabilized the Avatar's support and intelligence network.
He has left the Avatar with a situation in Republic City that forces her to divide her attentions between major crimes of society and cleaning house in her own support structure, while also paying attention to her loved ones.
He has removed a major intelligence vulnerability from his own support structure, weeded out several weak elements in his own forces, and removed several others that would question his authority and potentially disrupt his plans.
And, he has gotten the chance to visit with his niece.
What ISN'T he planning?

Don't count that out. Nothing is more effective than the unexpected sleeper agent.
