>2All very good choices. Ly was an absolute pleasure to write--I've always really liked those 'over the shoulder guide' characters and he really grew on me. Burton, of course, was probably my favorite skeleton to write (on the good guy team, at least). I love the hell outta writing grumpy old people and he was that in spades! Sybil's great too--I was worried that I wouldn't capture her being smart enough at times, but I guess the intellectual competition isn't too fierce among the cast, so... yea... As for Tim, well, there were many opportunities to see/interact with him earlier, but you guys somehow always managed to avoid them. Still can't properly describe just how happy I was to finally give him some more screentime, though--that Drive-In scene and the final confrontation were both treasures to write!
>3Yea, Tucker was a bummer--I was trying to go for a 'big bro'-kind of character like Akihiko from Persona 3 or something, but I think I fucked up and just made him pretty bland and another straight guy for the rest of the group's antics. That, in turn, made folks not wanna have him in the party much, so he didn't get much more developed than that, and... yea. I feel bad for the dude. I coulda' done better there. : /
>4All certainly possibilities! Halloween's around the corner, too, so if I have time, well...
>5I know no one acted rationally after Art's 'death', but people don't tend to act rationally when they're angry or sad... I DID feel a little bad about always coming back to humor after something emotional happened--sometimes felt like I was giving you guys emotional whiplash.
>7You're right on the money here--in a world full of prequels and sidestories dominating entertainment, I honestly wanted to keep Tim's past pretty cloudy if only to preserve his ancient <span class="mu-i">otherness</span>. The end result of expanding on the whole story would probably be lame anyways--unless whoever killed him last time was as much of a loveable fuckup as Stan, that is!
>8Now I feel bad with everyone saying we ragged on Denise too hard! I will admit, though, that I was rooting for her in the end--she's pretty pathetic in a bunch of things, but she's got it where it counts, right? I'm really glad you guys made the decision to become, like, official friends with her in the end, though. Something tells me she and Stan would really get along once Stan drops her prickly shield...
>9To be honest I was really worried about the demons--I wanted to keep them somewhat 'out-there', but also keep them grounded? We didn't get much of a background on them because, again, I find keeping things vague tends to make them more interesting (like wherever the hell <span class="mu-g">THE FAE</span> live and what they're planning). I can say with certainty, however, that you wouldn't have gotten that info from them without a price...
