Hmm... I don't see Susan coming back in any form except some flashbacks. It would cheapen Changes and her whole struggle.
I'm fairly certain of Reapergirl being a new character. Although, in the end she may end up being used as a single-appearance character.
I admit... I have this crazy idea that Uriel Is actually how a Young JC would look, meaning after his initial death his rebirth was into part of the heavenly order.
Also gets laced into theory that why the original MS abdicated it was a male, who did so to literally come down as TWC and get put back into the heavens under a new purpose. Basically depicting God getting mad that the future of Mankind was doomed due to Lucifer and Sin
Hmm... if you go through the bible a few times, you'll end up getting the idea, that Archangel Michael is who actually became Jesus Christ. But it may well be, that Jim is going to play the artist card in this case.
Oh... and I'd rather not be getting too deep into religion debates, but why would a god be mad about his creation doing it's job? Lucifel wouldn't be able to rebel, if God didn't make him able to do that. Given how logic works in religion, the rebellion was a part of God's plan.
the problem with Reapergirl being Susan is that the reapergirl was an angel and people don't become angels. That's primarily why I believe that it could have been Lash.
Hmm... You're basically talking about the Kabbalah. And yes, Michael in Skin Game temporarily jumped up a few Sephiroths. So no, it's not out of the question, but resurrecting Susan would basically destroy the impact of Changes. For a story to be enjoyable there have to be bad scenes to highlight the good scenes. It works like this in real life as well.
I agree, and disagree lol. I think it's evidence that in generations past the roles now held by Christian or at least monotheistic religions on the angelic scale were previously held by others. various reasonings
A) Lasciel's 'closest to true form' from Harry's intuition is the Greek woman. Combine that with the Woj angels may only believe they are the originals and/or from the beginning because of faith and the current Order of Angels may only be risen from the last time the Apocalypse went down.
B) Dragons existed before humans ever came into the balance, So humanoid God's and angels weren't always in true form. Case in point, Dragons could be considered the Gods of the dinosaur era.
C) Naaglooshi are from an Angelic order whom 'retreated' after their job was done, they stayed and were corrupted by it... A previous order. Comparable to Odin saying the Jotun's retreated.
As Bob said: not every messenger is angelic in nature.
... What precisely was Lash really that she'd die. DIE mind you, and be reborn in a new form, still an angel?
She was made of Harry, his life, his brain, she could change because she was effectively mortal. She could chose specifically because she gained it from Harry(see woj on Free Will and if Lash got it). What died was not anything to do with an Angel except that it was once printed out by one. Effectively a piece of Harry died, she wasn't like Bonnie gestating to be born.
Lash was made of Lash. She was living in Harry. That's why she was her own person but had to take some of Harry's essence to actually gain free will. And since she used her free will to act according to her love for Harry, this was what gave birth to Bonnie.
