History Awesome / Cenotaph

* Taylor having two separate conversations with Cherish and Burnscar and successfully manipulating the latter into eliminating Cherish for her. Taylor contends with a Master that was the reason why the PRT was hesitant on sending Legend because of the possibility that Cherish could manipulate the Triumvirate (which with how Cherish is capable of making Lung restrain himself from killing Crawler/injured the latter so that he won't heal, there is enough reason that the PRT's paranoia is justified.
** This is followed with Taylor leveraging Burnscar's emotional connection to a member of Faultline's crew, Taylor removes two of the eight current members of the Slaughterhouse Nine out of the board.

* Taylor, after separating from Amy, Madison and Weld, having to fend off "five" of the Slaughterhouse Nine with Siberian, Shatterbird and Mannequin in immediate pursuit and Jack and Bonesaw following in a "leisurely" manner.
** Putting things into perspective, Taylor has a) Siberian destroying buildings in her direction as the Siberian can't get a sense of her exact location due to fog of swarm b) has to avoid general vicinity of glass as it pings Shatterbird and c) is manipulating silk strings to prevent Mannequin reforming fully by tying separate body parts to lamp posts. All the while making them focus on her so that the three wouldn't find any trace of Amy, Madison & Weld.
** After being stabbed by Mannequin and escaping, Taylor has her insects give stitch the wound "as she is moving to escape"

** To give this more perspective, she said no to a man whose power is literally to manipulate other people with powers, who had just made an entire speech to her allowing his power ample time to twist her thoughts to his whim

** To give this more perspective, she said no to a man whose power is to manipulate people with powers, who had had ample time to twist her to his way of thinking.

* Taylor's response to Jack's offer to join the Nine atop the hospital roof in Wake 8.1: "How often does that speech of yours actually work?" Immediately afterwards, she jumps off the roof on a preset web zipline and pulls Amy, Madison and Weld with her.

* Lung vs Empire Eighty-Eight in [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/1152749/chapters/2339095 Cenotaph 3.4 & 3.5]]. He goes in knowing it's a trap, and still manages to walk away.
