Joss apparently was in a meeting with an F/X bigwig recently. Announcement of a new show on the network forthcoming?
She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

Christ - it better not be a reverse Farscape.
Pretty much what everyone else said. I'm not sure why Rossum/Boyd went out of their way to nurture Topher, who would bring the brainpocylpse and Carolyn who had the marysuespinal fluid. Did he want the end of the world? Why not just put a bullet in Topher back in the day and be done with it?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think he saw the tech as unavoidable and wanted to be in control of it and the means to resist it.

What does that mean?

This is how I took it too.

So, if Boyd has always been a doll, was he never around when the automatic doll blast tech went off? Was he faking being affected in the campus episode?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Boyd wasn't a Doll. Topher fixed the device that let you wipe people with no Active architecture.

Oh, thanks. I totally missed that and was all confused.
ETA: Wait, didn't the guy in the attic say he didn't know what the founder looked like because he could be in any body?

I think he only said that because that's what HE did. He assumed Boyd also put himself in other bodies. And maybe he did. But Boyd was the original.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I don't think you can put youself in other bodies without doll programming.

The recipient has to have Active architecture, but the donor doesn't. Is that what you meant?
