Line 22:
*** No. He said to know the Name of the King is to experiance a Blessed Agony, usually that of the Soul, but any will do. Also, "the house of the Child and his father already knew well the name of the King."
 
== [[Danny, the Champion of Thethe World]] is Trilby's origin story. ==
 
One, ''Danny'' is most likely set in its publication date, 1975 (the Baby Austin was built in 1933 and is "more than forty years old"). In the ''6 Days'' Extras, Trilby's birthdate is revealed to be 1966. This would have made him the same age as Danny (nine).
 
Two, ''Art of Theft'' has Trilby mention that {{spoiler|complacency cost him his father}}. Overconfidence and getting caught up in a brilliant plan without thinking things through properly are established as William's faults (seriously, it doesn't take five minutes to realize that {{spoiler|sleeping pills}} aren't permanent).
 
Three, William coaches Danny to think of poaching/stealing as an art form, which Trilby does. Also, Danny's "Sleeping Beauty" plan that bypasses the greatest danger of poaching (dodging keepers) is a precursor of Trilby's problem-solving skills as an adult.
 
Four, Danny shows an aptitude as a mechanic at a young age, with William hoping for him to become a brilliant engineer. Trilby studied engineering in university (I don't recall if he dropped out or not) and is said to have a talent for it.
 
Five, the only really rich person Danny knows is Victor Hazell, who his father takes extra pleasure in poaching from due to Hazell's jerkishness. In ''Art of Theft'', Trilby prefers to steal from people that deserve it in some way (i.e. uncovering Dominic Perota's peccadilloes), and cites breaking into random houses as "so... impersonal."
 
Six, they're both from England. This is not a very good point, I just wanted to have six points. (Oh, and Danny/Daniel could easily be his middle name that everyone who knows him uses. The only person with cause to use his proper name (Captain Lancaster) just says "boy" or "you there." His first name could still easily be {{spoiler|Malcolm}}.
Line 46:
At the very beginning of the game, you run into A.J., would freaks out at the sight of you. When you later see the Welder, you find that Trilby look nothing like him... but in the scene with A.J., Trilby was a tall, thin man with a white mask.
 
== Chzo eating pain is like how [[8-Bit Theater (Webcomic)|Black Mage]]'s Hadoken syphons love from the universe. ==
Even though Chzo inflicts pain on his victims, since Chzo eats all the pain back up, the people won't actually feel any pain.
 
Line 62:
In the entirety of 7 Days, you are first introduced to what the entire crew are in charge of and proceed to toss all that info out the window as you become the only one who is capable of doing everything everyone else was specifically hired to do instead. This is why you have an engineer that insists the psychiatrist on board checks out any bugs in the ship, a logical advisor who has [[Insane Troll Logic|as much logic as a forum troll]], and nearly everyone else only remembering ship protocol if only to nag at you when ''you'' disregard it, among other things. {{spoiler|This is also why nobody calls out Malcom on obviously not being the 65-year-old John Somerset his ID would have revealed, because by drawing attention to him it might risk the chance of the investigation uncovering their own false identities, if they even cared their fellow men were also fakes. [[Fridge Logic|Now how they themselves managed to slip under the radar without being caught]] is another story.}}
 
Possibly the only one who could be who they say they are is Barry (or not), and the reason why he can't seem to tell the difference between the real crew around his age group and experience (whom he would likely have served with at one point) over the [[Ragtag Bunch of Misfits|handful of young newbs who wanted to go to space for lulz]] was either because [[Paper-Thin Disguise|they were all convincing enough]] [[Horrible Judge of Character|to reassure him that they are who they are and leave it at that]], or because this kind of thing happens so many countless of times that he simply said "screw it!" and just let the ball roll where they may.
** Barry does seem rather inclined to be "screw the rules" guy at times, or at least bend the rules - he doesn't seem to buy into usual protocal (wanting to be known by his first name) and ignores a suggestion from High Command. He also says that he suspects Captains are retired because they realise the rules could use a little updating. All that considered, there's every chance that he'd turn a blind eye to imposters being on board. Although it's also worth mentioning that Serena and William are both known to be relatively new and the higher-ups consider the mission unimportant enough that it warrants a vastly outdated ship. Even they probably wouldn't have cared if the ship was full of imposters, were it not for the fact that {{spoiler|Somerset murdered his father, the real councillor}}
