[[WMG: Jay is named after Arthur]]
* Arthur's full name is Arthur J. Arthur (out-of-universe it stands for "Just", but that can easily be changed in canon). If he's Jay's paternal grandfather, that would mean Jay's name is Jay Arthur. That could mean the J. stands for Jay, and Jay is directly named after him. That also might be related to the fact that teachers apparently call her Jill, either as part of her dislike of her grandfather or as some form of secrecy.



* The second half of Voltaire's scheme [[http://egscomics.com/comic/sister3-309 seems likely to go through]], but [[http://egscomics.com/comic/2018-02-19 there will still be knives in the toy chest]]. And Voltaire will soon realize, if he hasn't already, that with magic becoming public knowledge humanity will soon be far more able to defend themselves than ever before. If Voltaire wishes to make humanity his playthings, he will have to strike hard and fast to break human civilization into pieces before magical knowledge becomes widespread enough to make us truly dangerous to Voltaire. Moreover, it is to Voltaire's advantage for the humans to hate and fear the fae, because it will force them to unite behind his leadership and prevent any of them from siding with humanity. And it would be terrifyingly easy: all Voltaire really needs to do is pop into the physical above a crowded city or two and blast it into smouldering rubble (which judging by the amount of power he's been throwing around he could easily do) while making sure to keep a few humans alive so they can tell their fellows exactly who was behind the atrocities. Repeat a couple times in different shapes to make sure the blame falls on all fae, and pretsto, instant war.

[[WMG:Layer Shifting Magic is suppressed by Aberrations or something]]
* They have default forms and Sirleck had a "spirit" form. To Aberrations, layer Shifting to see them is about as dangerous as the magic weapons? Or Layer Shifting is one way to become an aberration? Latter is unlikely to happen to Tedd, though, unless suddenly Aberration-ism is sorta reversible.

* Arthur's full name is Arthur J. Arthur (out-of-universe it stands for "Just", but that can easily be changed in canon). If he's Jay's paternal grandfather, that would mean Jay's name is Jay Arthur.

** Jossed, Jay's actual name is Jill and Jay is the nickname.

* Why? well, first of all, we have Grace's [[EvilCounterpart Evil]], [[EvilIsSexy Hot]] and [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2003-11-07 male]] counterpart as his general. Later, we have the alternate Tedd with Ellen as his girlfriend. So, in some points, these universes are pretty similar in some points, in others, they are pretty different, Specially in Tedd's friends, and maybe, Lord Tedd's universe is, except for Ellen's existence and Nioi, pretty similar to the hero's universe. Now, in some point Tedd's started to become evil [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2003-11-07 but not heartless]] so, I don't think that he has killed his friends. I think that maybe, they become part of his army (you can't be called "lord" without one) and they are pretty much powerful (and a little different) that the main characters. If we think that Nioi is Ellen's [[EvilCounterpart Evil]][[NecessarilyEvil Counterpart]] then there will be some other. And I think that they are the opposite, like:

[[WMG: Aberration transformation is a type of trade magic]]
Trade Empathy and Need for food and humanity, for immortality.



* (Fairy Jerry, Faerry for short.) On the grounds that Dex got his spellgraving the day Jerry died, and first summoned her the next, at much the same time as Susan was showing her version of the summon-fairy spell to Nanase... This is Jerry's way of staying close to those he’s promised to help, though in unrecognisable form for now. Not a greatly different form from the other recently-reborn immortals as it happens, and suitably styled for Dex’s taste... But has some other power intervened to “entertain”ingly impact the outcome while Faerry is still “out of commission”? Ah... While we’re at it, Dex is Susan’s father, some years on, having been chewed up and spat out by his ex and discovered the important things in life (comics and sparkly things). Jerry may not have grasped the whole of their relationship at short notice – or maybe he did and knows there’s a potential reconciliation on the go (and Dex will make a much better father now than in his erstwhile effort), so she’s in the perfect place. When she grows a bit she can go to school and join the feminist club, thus being a position to help, and also to watch Susan occasionally wield hammers, which may help with memory and anyway, Jerry was into it.

* "Who is Ellen?" implies that George [[https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/wie-165 is intrigued by the idea of male-to-female transformation but uncomfortable about admitting it]], which doesn't necessarily Joss the above, but makes it ''really'' complicated.
