	+ Almost none of the lines from the 2001 fanfiction were recycled in the 2023 fanfiction.
	+ Daggett looks at the statues and becomes hungry in this version, but in the 2001 version he goes as far as sniffing them.
	+ The statues in the 2001 version and 2023 version are different.
	+ Daggett has dialogue right before he eats the statues.
