Not in the same question, though, but I bet I could work it.
#1: Frederick the Weak, through machinations too complex to detail here,
has a Spiritual Protector. He bleeds (for 5), and is blocked by Fatima.
Due to the Spiritual Protector, Fatima can't use her assault rifle.
However, after combat is over, if Fatima Psyche!'s, can she then use her
assault rifle -- ie, is she no longer the blocking minion?
Spiritual Protector: "Spiritual Protector is immune to damage that is
not aggravated. Minions blocking or blocked by the vampire with this
retainer cannot use equipment in combat."
Psyche!: "Only usable at the end of a combat when both combatants are
still ready. Enter combat with the opposing minion. This is a new combat."
#2: We all know that Visit from the Capuchin is the way to get out of
the DNR clauses on Events. How does Visit interact with burning cards
for Nightmares upon Nightmares? Does "burning" a card count as
discarding it, as far as Visit is concerned, so Visit loses counters, or
are the cards replaced?
Visit from the Capuchin: "Put this card into play; put four counters on
this card from the blood bank. Your hand size is +X where X is the
number of counters on this card. Each time you play or discard a card
(except when discarding down to your hand size), burn a counterfrom the
card (do not draw a replacement card). Burn this card when the last
counter is removed."
Nightmares upon Nightmares: "For each minion a Methuselah controls
during his or her untap phase, the Methuselah must burn a card from his
or her hand or tap that minion. Cards burned in this way are not
replaced until the master phase. Vampires with capacity greater than the
number of Gehenna cards in play and mortal allies are not affected by
this card."
