Re: When You Want 2016-09-07
Hee hee, yeah... maybe.
Three years isn't really all that much when you're immortal. But... Bia is immortal, she's a Titan, she'll grow up to become an adult again eventually (probably), and she might just possibly decide to hold a bit of a grudge.
Outside the Library, an adult Bia could probably grab Phix's panties and tie them in a knot above her head, and Phix couldn't do anything about it.
We can hope that Bia has learned a sense of humor (a non-nasty one), in addition to all the other good stuff, during her second childhood, and that she hasn't picked up too many tricksterish ideas hanging around with Nudge for all those years.

Well you never asked and it just never came up. Shes not a mind reader now is she.

Great now Bia can get into mischief with the other Tweens/teens. Perhaps Go out with Castela and her friends or go out with.....BOYS!
Re: When You Want 2016-09-07
I'm kinda hoping that Bia stays a kid a little longer... it gives her a chance to get some growing up experience... she really didn't get a whole lot of that, seeing her whole life destroyed before her eyes...
You know that light at the end of the tunnel?
Yeah... it's a bullet. Sorry.

Re: When You Want 2016-09-07
It's understandable that Bia had not learned of this from Phix, since Phix is (or was) Bia's Mother-In-Law (Assuming that Bia's vow with Brian is of the "Till death do you part" type, did Bia fake her own death, or did Bia actually die? Only in the Wapsiverse could a question such as this come up!)). But doesn't Bia talk with her father, Pallas? I'm assuming Phix knows because Pallas wrote it down somewhere. If he told Phix, but didn't mention it to his daughter, that would be rather impolite on his part!

But she was being so well behaved and it made it much easier to keep track of her.

Re: When You Want 2016-09-07
yes, the fact that she did not 'misbehave' and *try* to leave, shows she has 'grown up' a bit!!

We can see the whole Castela/Timothy/Scarlet tangle being resolved by Castela and Scarlet sitting together grumbling about Timothy running off with that Bia girl.TheDOCTOR wrote:Great now Bia can get into mischief with the other Tweens/teens.

Re: When You Want 2016-09-07
Considering the hurt Bia put on Phix-having to give up her son, then watching Bia pass herself off as human to grow up with him, marry him, and callously fake her death, devestating Shelly-I think Phix is allowed this *tiniest* bit of revenge.
"Why didn't you tell me it was lifted?"
Innocent-"You didn't know? Didn't your dad tell you?"
I'm glad Bia is learning compassion, though. And it sounds like she and Shelly have been forging a new relationship. If so, I'm impressed with Shelly. I'd like to see them interacting sometime.

And conceivably a polyamorous one. The Gods and Titans were never known for sexual fidelity. We already know that Bia isn't immune to the attraction of younger men (e.g. Shelly's father) and isn't beyond using the "become young, and grow up with the guy" trick.Grantcmccormick wrote:There would be no question of what type of paranormal that Bia would be -- a cougar!Catawampus wrote:We can see the whole Castela/Timothy/Scarlet tangle being resolved by Castela and Scarlet sitting together grumbling about Timothy running off with that Bia girl.
So, once she reaches adulthood again, she might just collect a male harem of young paras. Given her Olympian connections she's probably well-off enough to build a mansion and install each of the kids in his own suite.

I'm suddenly thinking of Garion, Polgara and Ce'nedra and a bottle of nasty medicine...

Bia, finally out and left to her Own Devices>
She might fall in with this crew by the end of the week...
I'm seeing her taken under the wing of Marv, the Leatherman, in her exploration of her next maturity plateau...
I'm tempted to toss in a Donna Summer radio retrospective DVD, but I found I stopped considering my reply a Pun.... huh.
Source that film.
Watch it.

Re: When You Want 2016-09-07
I wonder just how the restriction worked, though. What would happen if she had tried to leave without being excused? Would she just hit a barrier that physically restrains her? Would she get zapped until she went back to where she had been? Would her body lock up?
