The Loach saga becomes one of Orin's seduction personas

texture · UNDATED (Orin's seduction repertoire)

• When: UNDATED (part of Orin's standing repertoire; the conversation cataloguing it is 7 Nov YDAU)
• What: The Loach legend circulates far enough that Orin Incandenza builds one of his numbered seduction routines on it — Strategy #4, in Hal's words "The one you said that Loach inspired" — in which Orin poses as a man who has that very day dropped out of Jesuit seminary after years of celibacy, complete with breviary and rented collar, to seduce a Subject. A tangential Loach reference (the routine is Orin's, not Loach's act), but it shows the busking saga's reach as lore.
