And not only that, so does every Archive previously.
I am unsure why so many people seem to think "Ivy becoming a teenager" is a prospect to be dreaded when its not as if the Archive has not successfully endured so many generations already.
Knowing the facts of the situation is entirely insubstantial in the face of adolescent hormones.

Oh, it certainly isn't inevitable. But considering that it is far from impossible, thinking about the possibilities of a raging-hormones, ultra-powerful, ANGRY holder-of-all-human-and-wizardly-knowledge teenager is shudder-inducing.

Teenager is a modern social construction, though, and, well, Ivy has access to anything that was ever set down about how humans who were biologically teenagers and socially adults managed to make it work.

*shrug* It's still a medically-established fact that adolescents are extremely hormonally active, and that can play hob with even the most intelligent kid. I WAS trying to make a humor-oriented bit about putting all that power in the hands of what could be a hormonal monster, but meh.

It's possible (though I don't care to make an estimate of probability) that the Archive has never before been housed in so young a body, and regardless of whether this is true, we the readers certainly have no reference to how it (the Archive) might react to puberty. This does not discount the volume of information written about adolescence and functioning as a social adult-- but putting it into practice during a hormone-storm could be somewhat problematic.

The sad thing is that it'll probably end up being disposable characters in distress, like Heorat. But if I was able to choose the lovers... Bob and Mab Hands down, check mate.

its about Molly and her magic Mp3 player... Love Hertz  This is soooooo bad that it now ranks in the top 5 of my Pantheon of Puns. I was caught completely flat-footed by that one. That or I'm getting old. Well done.
