Er, let me get this right. You're saying Faquarl didn't lose his nightvision even when he was hemmed in a human's body, right? Then any reason why he would lose his ability to see on all 7 planes?

Gah.

N&B - read each line so you can understand before moving on,

Faquarl can see perfectly.
Barti would have known this.
But, Barti didn't know it was Faquarl.
Better safe than sorry.

Simplest I can make it.

No....

He knew perfectly that it was Faquarl in the kitchen.

He even tried to warn the others it twas him.

So that argument is out.

Thanks Datsyuk, I understood the points you made, but I was talking about something different. Could Faquarl (in a human body) see through all 7 planes? I know it's not a part of this topic, but I was just curious. If Faquarl could see in the dark even when inside a human, any reason why he would lose his ability to see through 7 planes? Or did he still possess it?

Yes, Faquarl's sight was perfectly fine.
Feh.
Oh.
Sorry Nero.
He didn't know at first, but yes, he did when the fight started.

Have you even READ the third book, NathanielandBartimaeus? There's pages of evidence to answer that question.
When I set out from the boy's attic window, my head was so full of competing plans and complex strategems that I didn't look where I was going and flew straight into a chimney.

Something symbolic in that. It's what fake freedom does for you.

Thank you, you beat me to that.
Saved me a facepalm too :)

He has, by the way, he just can't remember for some reason... or doesn't want to... or can't.
No matter what reason, I don't care.
