Aww they are stopping in San Antonio instead of Austin! Austin is waaaay cooler (and where I am right now :p).
But I'm so glad the zombies plot doesn't start until after I get back!
So what about magic? Does it affect zombies at all? If Elphie tries to transmogrify one of them into say a roach, what would happen (assuming the spell works and the zombie doesn't become a human with 6 legs and antennas, of course)?
