...you do realize that if this. Um. If Shirohige doesn't get to Ivankov (YAY IVA-SAN THE MIRACLE WORKER) stat - or else shrugs off the attack - then. Then his last order to Marco was make sure that kid doesn't die.

So we have that, at least? Um. Even if morale fails all over the place and they turn against Squard and his spiders, Marco will NOT want to fail his oyaji.

Which is some comfort to me, though I am NOT THINKING about this maybe being permanent because I'm not going to let Odacchi hurt me that bad until I know, know that this is final.

As final as it has never been before ahklkahglhljgdsfah WHYYYYY.
