- Me reading that last panel.
"Oooooooooooo"

DAAAMN, the plot now T H I C K E N S. Forget the horny, now we have the feels, man.

IT SHOULD OF BEEN ME. NOT HIM

Then we have Kyo being removed and his brother being put in his place. Unrecognized or valued dedication and loyalties. Apparently someone who wasn't ready was sent into a situation he shouldn't have been a part of. And he saw Ryn in a familiar situation, left to her own devices by her people. In any case, it was something that made him review his duties and loyalties.

When your Shit-Test backfires spectacularly. Talk about misreading the audience... time for her to do the sailor dance and exit stage left!
