Because he's a famous magic user who would inevitably be given a deal he doesn't want by some government and if he tried speaking out against this idea he would probably be made out as a villain and have a fall from grace and really it's just simpler over all to fake his death or go into hiding.
What, Kyle's against being registered and such? He's starting to sound like those crazy people who live in the woods and blame everything on the government.
Yes, he goes into hiding because... well have you seen the Incredibles? something like that would probably happen.
Ignoring for a second how no one's suggesting anything remotely like that...remember how Mr. Incredible was separated from all of his friends from his superheroing days? Neither do I. He lived with Elastigirl, hung out regularly with Frozone, and it's implied that he kept in contact with other supers before they got, you know, murdered. Spoiler alert for a ten-year-old extremely popular movie, by the way.
So in other words, he's even more paranoid than Cyrielle.
Cyrielle's not paranoid, she just doesn't really want to be a hero.
Donations from big companies.
Who and why?
Anti-magic generators for one.
Lots of data on magical threats, some purely magical weapons, and the schematics for Kyle's power armor.
They're sharing all that? News to me.
They use a completely custom coding language, if people attempt to take it by force the base is nuked, and if the employees take something that could be a real problem they are put on d-class duty. Less severe punishments are given for less severe or more beneficial deals.
Wait, hold on a sec. How does that work, exactly?
And D-class duty puts you with the mean stuff. Not deadly. Just painful.
Said like a true non-SCP-Foundation-reader!
How the hell was magic unknown by the general public prior to the Layar invasion if major corporations knew about it already?
Because kj doesn't think things through? Ever?
I think the question is, What were Yuri's family and IRIS doing before the invasion?
See above.
Fairly certain this is falling into GM jurisdiction since Scapheap was the one that let Yuri's thing go on and Elf is the one who was okaying the lore for IRIS.
Don't blame Elf for anything, we all know he never does any GMing. (Sorry.)
As for scapheap, I don't think Yuri's family originally did much except exist and keep the one thing bound.
And really now's a bit late for you to bring that up.
It's when it's coming up. And smaller parts
have come up before.
How did Cerberus from Mass Effect do it?
I assume lazy writing. Or the threats weren't secret. Or crime. I dunno, I haven't played Mass Effect.
...I also said something somewhere about this NOT being Puella Magi, I'm sure of it.
So, you want it to be based on magical girl shows (which almost no one watches), but not all of them, just specific (unnamed, unwatched) ones.
And @SmurfingtonTheThird has now given a takeover bid hijack offer. Not entirely sure if it's still considered a hijack if he politely offers it
Interesting.
