Did anyone ever go through those musical lyrics that Zar and Jon (and now ShadosRise) have been throwing around during the last few days?


I don't really know Repo! The Genetic Opera, but according to their Repopedia site, there is a born blind character in it, fighting to keep her sight: http://repopedia.wiki-site.com/index.php/Blind_Mag#Characteristics


Nice find! Apparently, she blinds herself in every incarnation of the opera. (And is often played by Sarah Brightman!)

Quotes from the wiki page:

Quote:
Mag, born blind but given sight thanks to GeneCo, is often referred to as a caged bird in multiple version of Repo!. Though able to see, she has sold herself to GeneCo, and must continue endorsing it if she wants to keep her eyes.

Kinda like the Charlotte trapped in the wall?

Quote:
In every version of Repo!, she is determined to end up free of GeneCo's grasp. She demonstrates this in early version when Nathan asks her to leave the city so that he won't have to be the one to take her eyes and kill her. She refuses, and tells him that he'll have to make a choice, but ends up making the choice for him anyways by blinding herself, as she does in every incarnation of Repo!.


Quote:
A flashback using comic panels reveals that Mag was Marni's best friend, and through Marni, Mag met Rotti and was given her eyes by GeneCo at the price of having to be the "voice of GeneCo", which would come back to haunt her.



Quote:
Shilo warns her father that Mag is going to have her eyes repossessed after the show by a repo man, unaware that her father is the repo man.


Quote:
Mag prepares for her aria in her dressing room. As she puts on a pair of talon-like fingernail guards, she admits that she has seen enough and been powerless to stop anything, and is now ready to sacrifice herself to make it stop.



Quote:
Mag begins her final song for the Genetic Opera as she is lowered onto the stage from above. The song, sung in Italian, describes a bird of death that flies to remove an arrow that is attached to its wing. At the end of the song, as she is lifted back into the air, Mag asks that the bird come take her eyes and uses the large talons on her two fingers to rip them out herself.

Uhm.. Do you guys think there's any chance Zar is the father/repo man, and the oath he took to keep himself safe (yes, he said he took such an oath) is bringing new victims for sacrificing? The guilt Jon said he was feeling was for sacrificing Char...? And now he... gave them someone else, like icerimp suggested?

It's possible. Apparently Rotti is singing to Marni in that song that Zar posted. Rotti and Marni used to be engaged...

shivers...

but what is it that jons guilty about, last night on twitter he said to zar about feeling guilty now.

again im chasing my tail on this one! lol

i seem to have a good communication link with them all , but i feel like im going round in a circle!

it sounds entirely possible that zar is involved with the shadow and that he is the one gathering new victims..

Mhm. I'm starting to think it would have been a good idea to read through those damn lyrics yesterday. But it was late and dark and a horror opera about organ-reaping creeped me out a bit too much just before bedtime.

Check this one out, the one Zar posted to Jon. Clear as fucking daylight. http://t.co/mqUUqQN5

I'd say our Zar's got some shit on his conscience.

Yeah. Does Jon know that Zar's his father? If not, should we tell him? Will that change/help anything?

I wouldn't tell him now, definitely. Not after that video that just came up. Neutral

Apparently they're safe now, but I'm not convinced the Shadows won't betray them anyway.

Am I understanding that video correctly? Did they accept him as an exchange for all of his family - both kids and ex-wife?
