and more 'Oh shit we all almost died already and we didn't even notice.'
In fairness, that apparently happens a lot, according to Sion.

Did Solomon open this can of worms on purpose? Just so everybody would ignore the other can of worms Andersen was hinting at?
Because it seems to have worked. Everybody is concentrating on Taylor instead of him.
I'm thinking about the rest of the crew. I figured Leo already knew and was keeping mum to protect her friend/husband. I wouldn't trust them to share the secret till the last minute.Romani and Da Vinci got told the full deal, and well she is really smart. She will figure something out. Also she was listening in so...

Can i just say i laughed rereading this part?"Really?" Bradamante blurted out, and then she backtracked. "I-I mean, not that it's nothing, Master! It's certainly an impressive accomplishment, especially for someone from the modern day! B-but I suppose it's…not what I was expecting."
If she thought being party to killing a god wasn't impressive enough, then I had no idea what she'd been thinking I was going to admit to. Would a whole pantheon have sounded better to her? Beating Thor in arm-wrestling or shoving Zeus's lightning bolt up his ass?
Oh. Yeah those are kinda different things in hindsight. I guess they could figure out the Grand Servant deal without involving other secrets.I was taking about the whole Hijacking the Grand Servant System deal not about Romani's secret.
Why info for the twins\Mash is limited is clear. But why Taylor hides it from majority of Servants? Clock Tower will not interrogate Servants. And clearly, while twins\Mash can live with understanding that they little guys, all larger than life figures are not.And if they know, then the Association can find it out from them, one way or the other.

Better to try and keep the sensitive stuff under wraps.
Possibly. But...he's also being entirely genuine.Did Solomon open this can of worms on purpose? Just so everybody would ignore the other can of worms Andersen was hinting at?

That's their history and "hopes and dreams". Infodump from Taylor is too recent to be transferred.Dream Cycle, have a Servant long enough and you share dreams and knowledge while you sleep.
I do remember it, but if I recall it was an entity pr planet or system or something like that, so for multi-system species they'd call in others, don't think the wog ever got into it regarding galaxy-sized civilizationsP.S. Does anyone remember WOG about the fact that to create a cycle for a galaxy-spanning civilization, 10+ Entities are needed? Because I lost it and can't find it now.

If someone somehow got the Command Seals for those Servants, they could almost certainly make them tell their new Master what said Master wants to know.Call it Paranoia about the Servants telling their Masters then.
Emiya/Taylor: So, after saving everyone they executed me. I was too dangerous to be left as I was.Jalter has Taylor's number so badly. Also EMIYA you hypocrite. Looking forward to the next singularity, Saber Alter Christmas next... Just in time for Mordred to show up, I wonder if will go with the standard event or go with an original event.
And then I suddenly realized what the ultimate form of Last Resort is."And then you killed him," said Ritsuka, like he'd seen it coming.
I wasn't sure that I had. At that point, it might have been an act of patricide more than anything else.
"Not myself," I said instead. "The best you could say was that I gave the order that landed the final blow. At the end of the day, I was just the person in charge of the group that managed to do it."
And then I suddenly realized what the ultimate form of Last Resort is.
It has to be used after everyone, including Taylor herself was dead or functionally so.
The final deathblow was with the Sting hyperdimensional cannon, and Khepri was too far gone to activate it anymore.
I guess turnabout is fair play because Taylor had her number pretty much instantly.Jalter has Taylor's number so badly. Also EMIYA you hypocrite.

I just cannot imagine Shakespeare passing up the opportunity to listen to her story. It's too easy for him to lurk in spirit form to not even try. "Okay, everybody out but you two leave so we can talk more in secret" just sounds like catnip from what I've seen of him.
I know little about Fate so I can't say if he can be sensed by others or if Arash or Jackie would be able to stay there to prevent invisible snoops and protect Taylor.
The thing is, it only works AFTER she is incapacitated(which fits, because thats how she killed Alexandria too), along with most of her team and her subordinates take up the fallen weapon to take the shot she fell creating the opportunity for...The character quest that explains why Taylor's NP is upgraded three ranks up from a very sharp knife to a wavebeam railgun that punches through dimensions is gonna be a doozy.

"I thought you were from a parallel world," I said, stalling a little. "You and Emiya both."
While it's a cool image, I don't think that's true? It's not entirely clear whether she was controlling Defiant when he pulled the trigger (though I'd bet she was), but she was the one aiming the gun by providing and swapping out portals. She only fully lost it after Scion died.And then I suddenly realized what the ultimate form of Last Resort is.

"Wait a minute," said Da Vinci, "you don't mean that metaphorically, do you? You're talking about an actual, honest-to-goodness god, in the flesh!"
Marie glared her way and looked ready to offer some choice words for the interruption, but I just went with it.
"Or close enough that the distinction didn't matter,"
That…that one, I didn't have a good answer for. Strictly speaking, I hadn't been conscious for any of it, but Marie had told me enough — and I could have guessed the rest on my own — to have a decent picture of what happened.
I think going at the reveal so vaguely and half-assed is gonna bite them in the ass later. At least they told Da Vinci and Romani everything.
Ngl, I'm dissapoint.
Don't get me wrong, it's completely expected, and entirely valid, because Association will interrogate them by the end of it, or at least try.
Even still, it didn't come out quite as well as I wanted it to, but this isn't the end of it either, so I suppose it evens out.
this is completely expected and in some ways unhelpful, but I'm still gonna joke how protective Marie is.
sting just opened the path to his real body from his avatar, the super canon was separate from that, wasn't enhanced like the bolts usually areThe final deathblow was with the Sting hyperdimensional cannon, and Khepri was too far gone to activate it anymore.
by the time the cannon was fired doormaker had run out of power, taylor only controlled like a dozen capes at that point, but she had basically set the stage for everyone else to finish it, she'd begun making people turn into or recreate eden, she'd gathered everyone into the teams best able to help people, most importantly the tinker team, who she had the yangban cape that can share powers combine all their tinker powers and have them make a superweapon, she showed humanity that the fight could be won, scion at this point was actively showing that he was being affected, the fight wasn't futile, they could see that, and so people continued off where she was forced to drop it, and eventually scion, bullied to the point of being suicidal, allowed a sting enhanced bolt to hit him, opening the path to his true body, for defiant to pull the trigger and fire into with the super weapon.While it's a cool image, I don't think that's true?

For the record, for the deathblow sequence Khepri had taken Glaistig Uaine, so she had Doormaker's power again. On reread, she was definitely the one who fired the gun.by the time the cannon was fired doormaker had run out of power, taylor only controlled like a dozen capes at that point,
I don't remember that, so I rechecked and yeah you're right, my bad. i remember the entire sequence but somehow the part where she retakes control is just not in my memory.For the record, for the deathblow sequence Khepri had taken Glaistig Uaine, so she had Doormaker's power again.
