I didn't mean to imply with my Tower Plot Line prediction that there wasn't
things for
the Tower to accomplish. As you pointed out, there is loads they can do. What I was predicting was exactly who becomes the next person we follow around in the story telling point of view. Like, we've just seen a storyline from
Angel and
Kalani. That storyline (in theory) has wrapped up. Who do we follow now? That's what I meant.
And now as always with any post of yours, there's so much to respond to!! And I love it!
1. Yes, they need to revisit the store, but as long as
Burt is in charge and the status quo remains the same they won't. Burt doesn't "want to put all his eggs in one basket"
a) Yes they do, but I think they are still licking their wounds and won't risk the same sort of attack on the Tower again.
b) absolutely agree.
2. True, but as long as Angel and Kalani make it back to the Tower unscathed they shouldn't need to make a MRE run for a little while. What they secured should be enough to last them a while (plus they have flak jackets now, score!)
a. They don't
need to kill
arrowhead. You just want it to happen. Arrowhead might gain an Ink like status where he's just always around and they get a better idea of how far these things travel and how quickly etc etc
b. I don't think that would become a priority under Burt. They are low on ammo, and hunting parties would use ammo. They need bullets for their defense, and going on an offensive would be a poor tactical plan.
3. Agreed
4. If they are intent on leaving the tower, using resources on perimeter defense is wasteful.
5. Have they been to a power plant? They went to
the water works, but by the sounds of it, it's pretty messed up now and probably not functional.
Again, you are right about how all this could shake out. But the whole thing about my predictions is they are intended for just the upcoming chapter, and I don't know what the focus of the tower will be because there are too many options available at the moment. It's easier to make a prediction about M/P/K's situation because they are in the middle of a story arc vs. on the tail end/end of one.
And the correct term you are looking for is red shirts
Red Shirts were always the ones who got killed, unless you were Ensign Ricky and you were in Family Guy.
