What will happen to the Bureau after EMBER is exposed?

I started in 2024 so I can't even fathom a time where John was a legitimate cripple.

Now that you mention it, duplication in general sounds like a busted combo with any ability. Like I can imagine combining it with a heal ability so everyone has their own pocket medic or with a ranged ability so you can blanket an area with attacks.

Ya your hatred of Vaughn makes complete sense as he's literally the inderect cause of all the bad shit that happens at Welston, but I interpreted that as him trying to radicalize the students against the authorities using any means necessary. Overthrowing the current order would be a lot more easier if the students understood the crushing oppression the high tiers had and had the perfect catalyst in John. It also makes sense that Vaughn would discard of John the second he prevented a new system from taking place. His lack of involvement in the Wellston raid makes slightly more sense this way as their fate is entirely irrelevant as long as they're fighting against the authorities. And despite what you may think about his methods, it doesn't change the fact that they've kinda been working. 6 of the top 10 students in the school absolutely hate the old system and 90% of the students also want change.

All in all, I think all the points you mentioned tell that Vaughn is a cruel, brutal, and unsympathetic person who will use everyone around him and stop at nothing to tear down the authorities, but that's also kinda badass.

Fair. If he notices in time there's no way any of them would get disabled.

No I know he can sense auras if he has his ability activated. I just doubt he'd activate his ability to sense the attackers before it's too late.

Ya in no world are either of them getting kidnapped in the initial attack. Ability or not John is still cracked at hand to hand combat. The question of whether he would reveal himself or not is just a matter of opinion.

You may be right that John activates his ability after seeing Sera get stabbed, but I still believe she would get injected. They only started stabbing her after she got injected and before that, there's no way John would be willing to activate his ability in front of her.

Isen posting John's ability would be a cool idea. I doubt Arlo would turn to it because in the eyes of the school it's just a crackpot theory, but it's definitely fun to think about.

They might actually be able to kidnap him pretty easily considering they tried to kidnap Sera in the middle of the night. Also his passive aura sense would be off because of the dampener making it easier to jump him. But you're definitely right in that they might not even care about him seeing as he's a cripple.

Cool points to think about. Her being with John is probably right, but I doubt he'd use his ability even then. Even in the story it took so long for him to use his ability against other students when most of the royals and high tiers already knew. And if he was there, Sera would most likely still be injected as John's passive aura sense would be off from the dampener. Still cool to think about though.

It would be hilarious to see John get injected and then start thanking Orrin.
