    "With a blade, even a child can kill a man. Simply find the right spot and press, almost gently, and it's done. Firearms remove even the need to find the right spot.

    You are not a child. You are Shiva.

    You do not require such things to kill,"

    I have a couple of bits of choreography mapped out with touches like "while fighting guy with sword, Shiva disarms him and then pointedly disposes of the sword rather than turn the weapon to her advantage,"

    I would also have her beat the **** out of Deadshot despite starting at long range on him because it's my story and I can book how I want haha
    You'll not get any argument or dissatisfaction from me regarding these choices.

    Like the internal monologue. ^_^

    Solo Leveling wrapped up. A fun little series, while I find the Korean "what if a MOBA but also real life," story concept a bit played out at this point, this was probably the smoothest execution of that format of plot that I've seen in a while.

    Art remained consistently very nice as well, which is also a plus. I don't have any strong feelings about it but it was pretty neat.

    Now too try and think of a Rumble for the fully realised Shadow Monarch...

    Erm... that's going to require a bit more thought.

    In more positive celebrity news, Betty White is still alive and she's going to be turning 100 in January.
    Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.
    - C.S. Lewis
