I'm waiting for someone to complain about the blood spatters disappearing from Bastion's face. We all know why they're gone, right? :)

He tries to get these "trips" all scheduled and done in one window of time. So he'll teleport one place for a meeting with someone, then another place to meet with someone else, and so on. Then he goes home and eats and digests and rests for a few days.

Guess that means Bastion gets REAL hungry after each "teleport", if everything in his stomach goes... Does he even notice at this point, or, if there's no business to take care of, is his first order of business to go eat a whole cow?

You're overthinking it, Manuel ;) Bastion can only offset his own materials. It has nothing to do with what he believes are his materials. Only what is biologically his goes with him. So anything in his stomach or his bowels gets left behind. The whole banana is left behind. Only Bastion Winalils can offset. As for why the torc goes with him... well, I guess the torc must be a part of Bastion Winalils! But how did that come to be? We'll have to wait and see.

I'm guessing something like "The Khert knows what people know, so if Bastion knows which parts are his and which aren't, the Khert will only allow to offset his parts." Bonus question: If someone were to brainwash Bastion and convince him that his appendix is not a part of himself, can he get an appendix removal for free by offsetting? (I'm sure you'd be great at drawing this.)

I knew it! Bastion is the good guy! He brought Duane out of Sharteshane out of pure altruism! Right..? Yes..?

And why can he always keep the horseshoe around his neck? So many questions...

What if he had accidentally swallowed a blot? What if some of Chorley's blood touched his tongue? I'm sure Bastion offsets the interior of his gut as well, but where is the boundary between "outside" and "inside"? What if he offsets while swallowing a banana whole, with one half sticking out of his mouth? Could he maybe hide some pants in his mouth cavity (or somewhere else, get creative/nasty) next time before offsetting and sparing you to paint a speech bubble over his dong?

Rion Boom Crabhands Keon

That is exactly the reason. Bastion can only offset his own materials. So his spilled blood went with him but not the lawyer's.

Ashley

I'm guessing the splatters are gone because they were Chorley's blood, and Bastion only offset himself? I forget, is "identity" an Aspect? Like, does the Khert draw a distinction between "Bastion's blood" and "Chorley's blood"?
