A Tony wouldn't be particularly gifted at sorcery, but Sherlock traits are terrifyingly applicable to the system.

Actually, too terrifyingly applicable. I mean... combine the incredible might of Sherlock, Sorcery and Lucy Liu and The Lord Ruler wouldn't be able to betray Bella. Arcane would kill him before TLR even decided to eat those berries when he arrived on Fairyland.

It appears that sphinx healing powers work differently in Myth than they did in Incandescence: in Incandescence, Phix could do things deliberately in addition to the passing out; in Myth, Bella does't seem able to do either. Why the difference?

Phix had to autoheal a couple times before she knew what it felt like enough to reach for it. No underlying difference.

And the autohealing only kicks in for bigger things than that one shoulder bruise or her knee, I guess? What were the two blackouts on Phix's first day about, then? I've never gotten into Skin Deep, so I wouldn't know if it's answered there.

I don't remember what we decided Phix's first two blackouts were for, but no, a skinned knee or bruise won't autoheal (otherwise it would be pretty easy to mildly inconvenience a sphinx and then coup de grace them when they were sleeping).

"And other attractions?"

The backyard and the inn. The infirmary is occasionally a highlight, although obviously neither of you requires it at this time.
The mention of the infirmary has anything to do with my sandbox with Marri? I dont remember if other glowfic mentions it.

The presence of an infirmary has been conventional in non-glowfic DW/LJ RP uses of Milliways, but rarely turns out to be necessary in glowfic.

Ah, sorry. I thought it was weird that you mentioned that as a highlight, unless the infirmary is interesting somehow (which could be given milliways)... or Ivan and Ethan have specific tastes. I dont suppose the place has... "canon" traits from the non-glowfic RPs? The most interesting thing I would add was Baymax first body

I don't remember a lot about its details from the other RPs, but it's staffed by patrons like security and cleaning staff are.
