Agh, you're right. Wish I had the foresight to plan that sooner. Reason I didn't was mostly because I was writing by the seat of my pants as always. What you see is pretty much the rough concept and final draft all in one, as is my usual style. So when I began this, her alias wasn't decided yet, and by the time I got close to having to reveal it, I went "...eh, call her Lisa. It's fitting." By that point, as usual, I decided there's no point in going back and rewriting things if I was satisfied with how events turned out so far, and I feared undermining everything that built up the story to where it had gotten to by that point. It's like pulling out the bottom card of a stack or a hosue of cards; the whole thing will come apart. And I just couldn't bare dealing with that after all the effort I poured into the story at the time.
