INDEXING: REFLECTIONS episode #2, "Broken Glass."

The second episode of Indexing: Reflections is available now! This is your talkpost and discussion zone. There will be spoilers in the comments here. As always on talkposts, I have partial comment amnesty, and will not be responding to everything.

"Broken Glass" was originally blocked as the first episode of the season, before I realized that things would flow better if it came after the episode with internal affairs. It also sets up one of the big themes for this season: the idea that when the stories can't get you in their "pure" forms, there's always a chance that they'll take a step back and try another, equally deadly, way.

Fairy tales are flexible.

Game on!

Makes me think some of Sloane's eagerness to just kill the afflicted stems from spending time in the deeper levels of Childe prison (being a villain, and all.) Imprison briefly while investigating or attempting to rehabilitate, sure, but a clean execution is preferable to being in the conditions Demi described for the rest of your life. Heck, a messy execution is better than being tied up and half-muted and unable to feed yourself for the rest of your life.

Sloane is more practical than most people think.

Sloane is probably my favorite character. If it weren't 2 weeks before Dragon Con, I'd be tempted to cosplay her Princess Outfit with the Stompy Boots. Next year!

I also feel -- and that's all this is, my personal feelings on the character -- that she cares a lot more than most people, even herself, thinks. I see a lot of genuine compassion peeking out between all that attitude. She actually reminds me a lot of someone I knew a long time ago. Vicky had the same foul-mouthed, in your face demeanor and 'fuck you, world!' attitude. Half the time I was absolutely convinced she was going to get me killed, or perhaps kill me herself, and the rest ... the rest of the time I absolutely knew she would have my back, no matter what, and I 'pittied the fool' that tried to mess with me when she was around.

In my book, Sloane=Awesome!
