This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Yeah there is a scene in new sun when thecla's childhood friend
(domnina?) is shown the mirrors by Inire and Inire says they have almost
hooked the fish reflected into existence. I thought about mentioning that
scene.
Sev's association with the sun complicates a lot of these solar stories. To
bring it in or not?

At the point of Capricorn and the boy who hooked the sun I feel it is kind
of irrelevant to associate the sun with sev.  But perhaps not to associate
it with something like God.
