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.

I just don't see how this is an inevitable consequence of what we've seen in the books so far. A plausible one, yes, but not an inevitable one.

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. Grin

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. Tongue Cheesy

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.

Remember the She-Ra-with-PMS skit on Robot Chicken?

That.

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...

its about Molly and her magic Mp3 player... Love Hertz  Grin

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.
