The Siren: Notes for Chapter 8 · 2:23am Jul 4th, 2023
These are the notes for Chapter 8 of my fanfic The Siren. Don’t read until after you’ve read the chapter.
If it was possible to add a character tag that was an animated GIF of multiple pony faces, then I’d do it at this point to represent the Basilisk.
Lemon Peel’s ensemble
Eye Bait’s fashions
The costume designer for Diana Rigg’s first season on The Avengers was John Bates.
The Basilisk’s first disguise
(i.e. the pony Rarity was speaking with before she turned into Rarity and started robbing the train.) This is supposed to be Kerfuffle.
Knight Industries of Trottingham and Knight Industries of Canterlot
A bit of a reference to the fact that the British TV show The Avengers was created at the same time and independently of the American superhero team The Avengers. When you want to research the former you always have to wade through multiple pages of search results on the latter.
Also, the character of Emma Peel was Emma Knight before she married, and she is the frequently absent CEO of Knight Industries in The Avengers, a manufacturing company. Which is why Mrs. Peel became such a genius in materials chemistry and engineering.
