No, not that we know of.

I'm attempting to figure out some way to wrest control over him, at least long enough to try and reason with him, but I'm not sure that it will be possible. On either count.

[realists]

How did Grey control Cassius?

[mrngstr]

It's unclear. And still ongoing, from the sound of it. Just intermittent because Grey's distracted right now.

[realists]

[ hmm. ]

Is there anything else you know about him. Caroline said she killed him but then he walked into the room. Another him.

[mrngstr]

Your guess is as good as mine, there. That shouldn't be possible.

[realists]

Illegal cloning. Explains how he's got his hands in so many pies for so long with little notice. How he did multiple surgeries at the same time.

[ she really just LEaPT RIGHT TO CLONEs. ]

[mrngstr]

I guess it's possible, but...

Plenty of research was done on genetic editing and engineering, and animals were cloned, but it's unknown if a human clone was ever created before the entire practice was outlawed. If that's what Johann Grey is doing, then he's a powerful man with access to a lot of resources. And to be that cavalier about it seems borderline insane.

[realists]

He was human enough for Caroline to eat.

[mrngstr]

It doesn't make sense, though. Clones can't be artificially aged. All of those "Johanns" would have had to have been created at the same time, and then grown up at a normal rate.

[realists]

[ el, my friend, my pal, my dear, does any of this make sense. ]

Clone from a clone? They could last generations at that rate. Johann might be someone else's pet project.

[mrngstr]

Maybe. All we're doing is speculating at this point.

[realists]

Feels more productive than not speculating

[mrngstr]

Fascinating as this all is (and it is), I do have other work I need to be doing too. Hopefully I've at least given you food for thought.

[realists]

[ fair ]

I'm around if you need a pair of hands.

[ literally. he has the brains but jyn has the opposable thumbs. swings and roundabouts ]
