Chapter Twenty-Nine

I like Vapor’s definition of noble: a grand gesture that makes everyone else miserable and accomplishes nothing.  He’s seen so much over his lifetime and it’s left him with very little patience for illusions.

Walter’s chat with Michael demonstrates the family relationship.  After years of silence and generations of not trusting anyone, the Harris family has trouble trusting one another.  Walter is more comfortable speaking to Michael to try and manipulate Dani than in speaking to his daughter directly.  It also gave me a chance to share Walter’s backstory and my thoughts about the difficulty in trying to keep a group secret in the modern information age.

And yes, I do believe that absolute power will make anyone crazy.  So Superman really should have gone insane decades ago.
