Yes.
"I'm a fanfiction writer."
And here's the actual content.
Interesting.  I didn't notice it at the time, but the small bit of that fanfic that isn't spoken aloud foreshadows Cio's later revelations.  Belated, but interesting. 

EDIT: Whoops. Forgot when that event took place. Said "foreshadowing" happens precisely one page later. :P

EDIT 2: If you want real foreshadowing early on, though, another one I missed...
It's easy to catch foreshadowing once you already know the answer, though.

I just noticed that (other than my question in my post back there which people couldn't have probably answered), that Cio made a deal with Allison.
Err, much like Vladof did but chose to break his own mask. That kind of dealy thing.

Back when Allison was Queen-of-bad-decisions and all.

Zoss uses a power that is unknown to seemingly all other beings and unique to him.  Someone (82, I believe) referred to it as "dark science."  All we know is, somehow Zoss cut through the gaps between worlds into Throne, killed 6 powerful angels, and created all the keys.  He had no angels, devils, or any other magic referred to in the series.  In fact it appears that the many powers that the various characters use came AFTER him.  We know that the other demiurges arrived without his help, but they also used a different method then him.  The way the other demiurges arrived must not have been very practical, or else the keys wouldn't be such a big deal.  I don't think anyone except Zoss understands his power.

He appeared as a shade in the void, and a human inside "real" worlds.  He also pushed the key into Allison's head while decapitated himself, and he seemed pretty aware of what was going on around him.  I don't think Zoss is going to die until Zoss is ready to die.
Yeah but what I meant about him being a projection from the key and not actually a resurrected and recapitated(is that a word? it is now!) person with a physical body is stuff like this: https://killsixbilliondemons.com/comic/wielder-of-names-5-95/

Similarly here he's present and then what, ran around the corner to hide while she hopped in the water I guess: https://killsixbilliondemons.com/comic/seeker-of-thrones-9-103/

A Zoss is never late. He always arrives just when he intends to.

I keep going back to this and finding new little details.

https://killsixbilliondemons.com/comic/wielder-of-names-5-101/

Like here, the gun witch riding a rifle like a broomstick.

The artist must love their job to put in all these little details.

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

Yeah, what's a little weird is that earlier she was shown riding an actual broom. I'd guess maybe the rifle isn't suitable for riding long distances, but there's no reason to bring a broom into combat.

The question I have is: Why the hell do Maya and Zoss have ley stones? You'd think it would be unnecessary for either of them.

Zoss doesn't have a ley stone. He appears to have a gaping hole in his head where he ripped the key out and shoved it into Alison's head.

Then what the hell is the red stone he keeps appearing with?

Must be the colour of his key? When he arrives in heaven, it's there: https://killsixbilliondemons.com/comic/ksbd-3-42/

When he appears later, it's not: https://killsixbilliondemons.com/comic/wielder-of-names-5-95/
