I think it's charming that the first person Emne thought to go to in order to find Emil, is his lieutenant. I never know what the broad reader opinion is on Emil's domestic concerns but the way they contrast with a large bird woman trying to rewrite reality and a girl with a tail finding out she has super powers always delights me. It's at the same time ridiculous and grounding.

But yeah, wonder where the Captain is?

I mean if I had gone through what Toma had gone through, I would be laid up someplace safe just being thankful that my daughter and I are alive. So probably that. Hopefully that.

> I never know what the broad reader opinion is on Emil's domestic concerns... I'm for 'em! It's not really *that* much more relatable than the big-scale stuff - whomst among us married an aristocrat who was intrigued by our war hero status, etc - but it *feels* very human.

Her performance is so boring that Petr's kid immediately checked out.

Rifter

Oh my gods. Thiiiis bitch again.

LMAO Emne moved on quick?? i.e. Who the heck is that guy?? And I'm gonna guess that Toma isssssss.... in Chea's secret place with all the medals? With Chea of course.

The Clag

Mourning the Second Best Girl while spending time with The Best Girl, I imagine.

Is she wearing the mourning robes again? Foooor a traitor? Is it known he was a traitor? Are characters connecting the dots here? (Also, Toma, run before she can snatch you!) If I were.. well, any of them, I'd find somewhere to bunker down far away from the city of the event after what happened last time. If Toma has sense, he ought to do the same. (Also also, I'm curious if Sette has fled the city, given her displeasure for the holiday. Has she ever had softi? She drinks alcohol and might have done glut at some point, so I'm now curious.)

Honestly I can see why Emil might be a little silvered out at this point lol. Kind of wild to think how a guy like him might have ended up with a lady like Emne, even with outside pressure

Rob N

That symmetrical look on Elka's and Petr's face though... priceless!

Rainwalker

Emne has… a little bit of a point? But she was also pretty disinterested in Chea during their scenes together. I guess “Emne Toma wants most that which she does not currently have” rings true again.

For some reason I thought Emne died last chapter. Could well had, but oh well. Seeing her wear the colour gradients of khert squishies is additionally annoying.

Emil Sava got another medal, but not a promotion from a captain? Surprising.

im glad Emne survived, she's horrible but not /that/ horrible, i feel like a weaker story would have killed her off to be tidier and act like she deserved it I was going to say but I wouldn't be her friend but lets be really i probs would be to hear the latest hot gossip

I like the domestic concerns arc. It is indeed a nice contrast and its one more interesting human conflict: Though I deeply dislike Emne for her self-centeredness, she has a point about Emil. Let's cross our fingers for poor Chea - it would be a shame if she got dragged into a custody battle on top of everything else. :-(

Hunting down her first husband while carrying the baby of her second husband and...throwing herself into the arms...of maybe a soon-to-be third husband? This lady...

You know, Emne here makes me really think of a line from Umineko- “without love it cannot be seen”. Emne throws around these accusations and talks about the impact on her and Chea of Emil’s absence- which I don’t doubt there’s a great deal of impact! Running away from your problems and avoiding them is never a good thing, and however odious Emne is she as a person does indeed deserve closure and consideration… but god lady, you don’t got no love in you, so you can’t extend charity. You can’t make kind assumptions instead of cruel ones. You can’t see the truths that exist outside your narrow selfishness. I hope Emil gets primary custody in the divorce!

Is Emne's outfit meant to look like a squish?
