And yes, this discussion's been had before - I was a participant, and if I remember correctly the instigator of said discussion. The other half of the world in question was Pirates of Dark Water if memory serves, and it was mostly Marty's brainchild. I think.

The question I took from this is a bit different. So, Utena has a bonafide goddess mark now, which... doesn't surprise me, since it was one of the Norns who drew hers to start with. The question: how long before she starts showing a permanent mark, if ever, and what form might that mark take? I know she's a minor goddess right now, but this being Utena, well... minority has never really been her thing, has it?

ETA: By permanent mark, I mean the minor, un-manifested variety. Kinda like Corwin's center-dotted circle expanding to the full configuration.
