There's no color saturation or other "dream effect".       It's just another scene stuck after the previous scene. It's actually       quite jarring. *I* knew it was a flash forward because I know the story       but I do think it will be difficult for someone who is new to the story.       I won't give out specifics, but there is one character that you see more       often in flash forwards than you do in the current time of the story and       it leaves you wondering, "where did this person come from?" oh wait, it's       another flash forward.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
