Right, in order:

Ehh, Iunno if I want /having/ to seek out Owner to be a thing...or...hm.  Well, I could perhaps see him having a collection of books and possibly artifacts.  Maybe one of these is needed.  That would be acceptable.  <3

Phoenix was never a fan of the fighting, but Owner did get involved -- partly to keep things safe for her, after they met.  Though I think he mellowed once meeting her too.  Before that he was considerably less benevolent, and might've even been a bit malicious -- or at least a trickster.  I keep thinking he's some sort of very old fey.  Definitely ancient, on the order of millennia.  Dunno if he's older than Ket, dunno that it matters.

I think instead of getting saved while in a fight, he was a neutral party by then.  Phoenix has been sleeping/in a coma for ages now, but it's possible that Owner ended up somewhere in trouble -- ooh, maybe he tried to get involved when she said he shouldn't, and that's why he ended up needing saving?!  ...Yeah, that might work.  So not too long after she was injured, and when he was moving from involved to the sidelines.  So he has been keeping an eye on Ket for a long time, yes.  Think he might keep an eye on Seers in general.  I feel like Phoenix may have a connection to a lot of them, or at least tend to notice them more.

Yee, Kabuto could easily get another Seer.  Kel, the girl Amune keeps remembering, is the other Seer she mentioned, but also quite dead at this point.  If reincarnation is a thing, having Kel's new self would knock Amune away from pragmatism very quickly.  You've said that Amune is exceptionally powerful for a Seer, so I'll go with that.  But I don't know if a Seer to Seer connection would be possible at range, save for the strongest.  ...Perhaps instead, a telepath/empath of some kind?  Someone with magic pertaining to the mind.  This would justify both connection, and also why Amune gets freaked so easily (though really, anyone in her head get a major negative reaction, and anyone threatening her mind or even brushing past her barriers will make her bristle.)

AHAHA and that is precisely why the Phoenix doesn't get involved much either.  Or rather, doesn't let Owner get involved much either.  <3  Phoenix herself didn't like being involved, particularly since she didn't stay dead but others did.  And because she could see how a lot of her actions would make things worse.  I suspect there's a number of beings that make things worse just by being involved.  Like...automatic escalation, so even if the good guys win, the collateral damage is much higher.


I do want Jareth to find out he has minor magic at some point.  It's really nothing special, and probably can't be used offensively without serious creativity -- w4e'll see what he thinks of.  But machinery and electronics are another matter.

And I still want Amune to lose her fingers, if only because having her under the influence of drugs and unhinging her in that way is fun.  <3  It also allows people to see just how bad losing control is for her.  It'll be worse in this setting than it was last time around, because I hadn't figured out all of her past at that point, not realized just how messed up she is.  She keeps insisting she's fine even in my head.  <3  But yeah, she'll be crazed, and almost certainly is going to try to gouge her eyes out, so there's that.  I think having someone completely undo the effects is a bit cheap -- maybe if Tsitua does like he did last time, he can get most but not all, so there's still minor effects.  Then you'll get to see a few other destructive coping skills.  ^.^
