Vampire V1 goes to Torpor.
Methuselah M2 plays Minor Boon to save V1.
later...
V1 bleed M3.
M3 plays deflection - naming M2 as the target of the bleed.
What happens?
a) Deflection cannot name M2 since M2 isn't a valid target for V1.
b) V1's bleed is automatically unsuccessful (fizzles).
c) ???

I would say a) because of the card text, and it overrules the general
rule of Deflection. I guess that in a three player game M3 cannot use
Deflection at all.

Tom,
This probably timed-out while you were away last weekend, so I'll
post it again:

Bluh. I would say it's a tossup between a) and b). I'll have to
add the question to the design team list. For now, go with a).
