[Hereafter] Chapter LXVIII: Sagum Vocationis
Added 2022-09-10 18:35:14 +0000 UTCWhew. 3.6k done in one session. I was determined to get this all out at once, so I knuckled down and pushed until it was over.
It might feel a little anticlimactic, and I can understand that, but there isn't an easy way of describing four people ganging up on one and that one still somehow holding her own. If I'd gone for a play-by-play...well, the pacing would have been weirder and this chapter would have been probably two-thousand words longer.
I felt a little iffy about Taylor's little psychology play there, but it came out better than I was expecting. Also, this chapter tried to make me tear up at least twice, so I hope it hits you guys as hard as it did me.
EDIT: Moving down.

I forget about characters sometimes — Fou most frequently — but Connla was planned to come back eventually, he just needed the right moment. I don't blame people for forgetting about him otherwise, though. Septem took 9 months to get through, and he's been out of sight for most of it.

2022-09-11 07:55:09 +0000 UTCWhat if Rika summons Bridal Nero instead? That'd make for some hysterical encounters. Plus she's a support saber with more single target focus. The teasing Ritsuka could give Rika about summoning a bride..oh god my sides. Poor Altera-chan. Let's hope Taylor summons you so the two entities that pissed off people with the same refrain "What the hell is she pulling out of her back pocket now?!" can meet...and likely annoy each other.
