Right now all I can think of is self-preservation instincts - if you see through your eye in some one else's head that there is a sword coming towards you, instinctively your first reflex would be to ward it off, before you have time to think "wait, I only see it, it is not me who is under threat".

You got a good point there, actually.Â Never really thought of it that way before.Â Â ^_^Â Â Both Syaorans are technically the same in a way.Â Â So, many of the clone's movements should actually be similar to R!Syaoran, in a sense, with the exception that they kick differently.

Edit:Â And it's alright if you're not too familiar with how CLAMP works in their stories.Â They tend to leave their fans hanging in mystery a lot.Â Â

Â Enjoy CCS!Â Â It's a very good CLAMP classic!

ack. i keep forgetting.

io think we may have learned another one of mokona's secret abilities.

"Summoning" or something to that effect.[somone give me a cooler name so i can addit to my guide ^^

heres why i think so: Syaoran had his sword already outside of mokona when they arrived at the tower. perhaps he tossed it to the nearest person before diving into the water? im pretty certain he didnt give it back to mokona. Kurogane already had his sowrd, when he talked to Kakyou(?) he just left it upstairs. So perhaps mokona had the power to "summon" a person's possesion?

I think Mokona already had that kind of power--he was able to transport things from one world to another. (Such as sucking in Fay's staff and giving it to Yuuko, and exchanging it for the monster in Doumeki's temple.) However, I've been curious as to where the swords get put when Mokona is "storing" them. Do they go into a special room in Yuuko's shop? I'm pretty sure they've got to be somewhere.

Hahaha, I remember everyone flipping out over chapter 120! I could refresh the page and three more responses to the chapter dioscussion thread would pop up. The height of activity on the thread. I went to sleep and two pages were added by the time I woke up. Though there was the pain of having to go without the next chapter, that thread was awesome.

And maybe the swords in Mokona's mouth just get turned into magic or something and stay in one of it's stomachs (as the black Mokona mentioned it had more than one, lol.). Kinda like how the black Mokona stores the spirits in it's mouth/stomach/whatever for a while before Yuuko asked him to send it.

lol. I rememeber like it was yesterday. Trying to keep up, was the hardest thing to do. I wonder if that is every going to happen again.

[its so funny going back into the old chapter threads and reading "what is going to happen in the next chapter", to see who was closier, and way off]

ah, but kuro's sword was at the top of the building, in their room, and syaoran's was somewhere in the crowd (i think) albiet the use of fai's magic caused syao's sword to come out instead, but how did kuro's sword end up from their room into mokona's mouth? its a bit confusing :S

Okay, I see what you mean now. I can understand that happening if Black Mokona was on the other end, but it wasn't, so...how does Mokona just "teleport" the sword there? That's a good question. Also, I wonder if Mokona's power to do that extends to everything. I mean, if that was the case, if they knew where the feather was, Mokona couuld just "summon" it, as you said, and that would be like cheating. XD

I'm thinking... maybe CLAMP has kept Fai unconscious for this part for a reason. Maybe they don't want him reacting to the bat symbol on clone!Syaoran's shirt too.
I've always had my suspicions that Fei Wong Reed has had something to do with Fai's past since the little-Kurogane story arc.
Perhaps Fai even had something to do with Kuro-mumma's death by chain of events. Maybe he's aware that something he's done has effected Kurogane and that's why he's so desperate not to divulge any information about his past to him.

My theory is that Fei Wong Reed had contact with Ashura. Ashura somehow had Fai under his control and used him for his magic. I'm not sure... but since Fai has the power to create life, maybe he created the Oni that killed Kurogane's mother?
Fai could have tattooed himself with that magical device to suppress his powers and stop them from being used in such an awful way. That would explain why he's so reluctant to use his powers anymore, as well as why it was his most precious possession and why it was also the seal on Ashura's 'coffin'.
It does kind of make sense that Fei Wong would have a part to play in Fai's backstory since he has in Kurogane and Syaoran's.

I like this theory a lot, maybe Fai did have something to do with Kurogane's past or Fei Wong Reed had something to do with Fai's past. But, if Fai did had something to do with the death of Kurogane's mother, doesn't that make Fai older than Kurogane?Â

Not nessisarily. Time flows differently in different dimentions. Time could be flowing much quicker in Kurogane's dimention than in Fai's.
But I've always thought that Fai is a lot older than Kurogane anyway. CLAMP mages seem to have a very long lifespan and, although I think Fai is probably a 'young' mage by respects, he could be over a hundred already! Yuko is probably hundreds of years old but she still has the appearence of a woman in her late-twenties/early thirties.

Good point! Though it would be weird to find out that Fai could be like a hundred years old! He looks so young, hehehehe.

Snow-chan · « **Reply #172 on:** July 23 2006, 05:46 am »

Being a huge Tolkien fan, appearance and its relation to age has long lost its significance to me. I never thought of Fai's age but now that someone brought my attention to it, I realise I am expecting him to be a lot older in years than he looks.

(tg - thank you! It was a slow day today at work and I managed to read the first three volumes of xxxHolic as well (the joys of working in a bookstore, even if it is as of yet not very well stocked with manga))

There there, you'll always have the first 118 chapitres. Besides, we don't know that he's gone for good. We only suspect it to some degree. Afterall, there's still that pesky introductory scene with the glass tube to worry about.
