I'M BACK, and my to-do list is significantly smaller.
SO.
Firstly, I never tire of your Olivia. The way you characterize her is PERFECT, and having already read her end in this universe, I am just that much more excited about this prologue.
Oddly enough, the matching scene in the manga never spoke to me this way. I never caught the implication that she was essentially handing Roy the country should she die, but now it seems obvious. (Of course, she lived in canon, and will likely continue to annoy/terrify Roy for years to come.)
And re: Grumman, something tells me he's not as hardheaded as Roy wants to believe. I SENSE FORESHADOWING.
