Allpocalypse brainstorm help, please!
Hey, folks! I seek some advice for an Allpocalypse plot device thing. See, I have something I'd like to offer, either to add to the snowball of reality-breaky stuff or to help fix things at the end, except... I have no idea what it actually does.
In ReBoot episode 2.02, "High Code", a Codemaster (some sort of ill-defined assassin) comes to Mainframe, bearing a Gibson-coil pike (his equally ill-defined weapon). It does more than just weapony stuff, we know that, since he uses it to portal around, but the writers' idea of a helpful description is "His weapon, the Gibson-coil pike, is deadly," and then changing scenes.
At the end of the episode, this happens (DivX needed). If you'd prefer a shorter clip: Codemaster Lens challenges ex-Codemaster Talon, who refuses to fight 'cause he's retired, and then Lens does a weird growing trick and looks like he's about to blast Talon, but he does this first, and then he goes back to trying to kill Talon and the sky stays like that until he leaves and they don't explain anything.
So... anyone got any ideas what a paradigm shift might mean in context, and how it might be employed for the Allpocalypse?
