I've been cruising round the story site again, lookin for ideas with the "mulling over marathon" page, and I still don't get some aspects of infinity. I have 2 main areas for ppl to look at...
First is seen in Lt Devon's sig-
"Seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses float inconspicuously around the inside of hangar ninety six. I say that they are inconspicuous because it is their arms and legs which demand my attention. I did this, or I could have stopped it. Which is it? It doesn't matter now."
The second is the "durability" story, the 7 foot tall man with the broadsword...
The first one I believed may hav been some fragment of Durandal, some half remembered incident. but the more I think on it, the less I believe that, and the less I understand it.
The second one, when it started out, I thought was also tied to durandal, obviously through use of "durability" constantly and I figured it could have been an incident with the mjolnir cyborgs before the marathons launch... maybe Durandal was playin with the (in a manner of speaking) and took them for a wander outside, running into the narrator of this story (ie the cyborg being the 7 foot tall guy, who collapses vomiting sputtering about "durability") I assumed the narrator was hearing them wrong, and that the collapsing/vomitting was durandals control of teh cyborg being broken as the suited men closed in.
Maybe I'm just completely lost again... any ideas ppl?
