"That's logical enough, but I would expect the Magister to be the most difficult to capture and<em>keep</em>," the Arrow noted.  "The one time we thought we had him locked down, he was freed by a two-pronged assault from the rest of LoVE and a small group of powerful demons.  At the very least, we need some way to keep his extraplanar allies from finding him."<br/><br/>"I do admire your optimism," Hammerhand said dryly, "although I suppose it couldn't<em>hurt</em>to offer our greatest enemies a chance to reform."  He tapped his fingers on the console, pondering.  "Colibri is difficult to restrain for obvious reasons, but at least her powers are more or less a known quantity, and Apogee could presumably be kept in prison if she were separated from her gear.  And kept away from anything she could repurpose."<br/><br/>"Actually."  The Argent Arrow frowned suddenly.  "Spoiler, have you ever tried bringing someone else into an alternate timeline?  I wonder if the Magister's pacts would still be valid with another timeline's version of his demon 'friends.'"<br/><br/>"Imagine, though, if he found a way to contact the other timeline's version of<em>himself</em>."  Hammerhand coughed politely.  "Deliberately involving any sort of parallel or alternate world effectively doubles the number of possible complications."<br/><br/>Perhaps left unsaid was the fact that even if they trusted the Spoiler completely, imprisoning villains somewhere that only he could access probably wasn't an acceptable solution.
