Chris.
He burns whenever the burn effect occurs. He does not have any special
text letting him delay the burning.
Whenever he burned, he would be burned and placed in his owner's ash-
heap. (i.e. the original player)

He burns when he is "returned" to the ousted player.
His "new master" only has control of him for as long as the effect
says he does.

Urgh. Brain freeze. I blame not paying attention.
Ok, that's what i suspected. Forgive me for continuing the thread with
a further question.
Let's say we have five meths.
Meth A
Meth B
Meth C
Meth D
Meth E
Meth B brings out Parmenides and gives him to Meth A.
Meth C bleeds and gets deflected all the way to B who is ousted by the
bleed.
I assume that Parmenides will leave the game in between the turns of
Meth A and C as this would be when he was supposed to return to Meth
B. Is that correct?
If so, what happens if Meth C, after ousting B with a deflected bleed,
calls a Kindred Restructure and the table now looks like:
Meth C
Meth D
Meth A
Meth E
At what point does Parmenides burn?
Chris.
Asker of silly questions.
So he is returned at what would have been the Ousted Meths untap
phase...ie: between the current masters end of turn and the next meths
beginning...bummer.
That's a good point.
He's controlled by his temporary master until his owner's next untap phase.
If his owner doesn't have a "next untap phase" (e.g., she's ousted), then
the temporary control effect never ends.
Sorry for overlooking that point earlier.
O I was right then. Thanks.
Hah. Chew on that Errol. :P
