Worse. Trolls do not strike at singular targets if they can.
I have two theories about Nicole. She is either a part of the Troll’s plot to destroy Ethan’s self-esteem. Or she is a hero playing bodyguard to a known Troll target.
I like wild theories and creativity. Though I always want to have some logic to it. With these theories I always feel it is as likely as Ben suddenly revealing he’s the troll. I feel people have been raised in a world where everything is connected. In movies and series this is especially prevalent, where you can ‘solve’ the plot in a single stroke and everything is resolved. You need less characters if the new love interest is also secretly the big bad, and can advance their character growth at the same time. It goes to ridiculous lengths these days.… Read more »

The only good thing I can see about this development is that Ben should be mostly fine when it comes to his work. I assume that Internal Affairs are looking into who among the police could have helped the Troll to escape, and Ben can’t possibly have anything to do with that, so… plausible deniability, I suppose.
When it comes to his mental state, on the other hand… Let’s just say I wouldn’t want to be in his shoes.
I really don’t think he is fine when it comes to work.
What makes you think he couldn’t have been involved? Even if Ben himself might have an alibi for during the escape, he easily could have given others confidential info they could use for the breakout. And the login data proves he did access that information. At the very least he’s a suspect.
He might be cleared when it comes to aiding the Troll directly, but just letting Lucas access his account is already enough to land Ben in deep trouble.

How that jail break is not on the news? Murderer, cult leader, city danger…I mean…he is not a low level criminal. It has been kept in secret? Or is a very recent event?
Even is Ethan or Lucas don’t usually see the news, quite sure a reporter would have warned Analogue.
Absurd theory: Nicole is indeed Bloodbath, and somehow knows the Troll target Ethan. She is using him as a bait to give the Troll some justice, that will lead to a Troll’s follower massacre, some of them just innocent fools without critic thinking
Actually Troll is still pretty low level. For Analog he might be the biggest threat of his life, but for a superhero city regularly (?) attacked by skyscraper sized eldritch abominations a guy mostly making dildo jokes really isn’t that noteworthy, even if he did kill someone once. He’s dangerous, but nowhere near city danger levels.

Well, fuck. I was against Lucas actually using the police database lookup back then. Looks like I was right.
I thought they were going to break-up. I can’t tell if this is worse.

Sometimes, I wonder if Tim changes his narrative just slightly due to things he reads in the comments 😀
Tim wrote this page likely back in March or so, so… doubtful.
Doubtful, but never completely certain. We have nothing to confirm Tim isn’t capable of seeing the future and/or time travel.

First Ben is Deathblood, now Nicole is Deathblood? This comment section is ridiculous.
Throw enough mud and surely some will stick. If you bring up all possibilities, and usually someone/thing will be right.
That assumes that Tim doesn’t put in a totally unexpected twist of course.
Thought that the “absurd theory” and the use of “somehow” (as in certain las trilogy) would mark it as mainly a joke 🤔
