Hell, my mundane old-fashioned CDs do this to me. One of 'em slammed down Evan & Jaron's "Crazy For This Girl" while I was working on the science lesson scene. :)

Um, no. Zoner has never, to my knowledge, toppled a government.

Knew what? Sure, Corwin's read those books - his parents both have copies - and to a certain extent, has consciously based his personal style on that of their protagonist, though he's not nearly as much of an asshole and he likes his siblings.

However, Utena hasn't read them yet. She just inadvertently used another of her latent superpowers, Do Something Eerily Appropriate. When she does read them, she'll be faintly unnerved by her own unconscious perspicacity. :)
