made their way into this storyline or not.

She had to have expected something
if she had a gun.
I’m sure Miral had the new
under suit on,
still goanna sting though! Yeah,
don’t kill her,
let Miral and Ahmya have a
shot first.
I’m sure those two can come
up with something FAR worse.
I’m voting to send her too the
planet with the Eco-terrorists,
torture them both!
She thought she had the skills to become Empress?
One setback, though a major one,
and she becomes an assassin in public.
She discredited herself,
her family and her allies more than Ahmya,
Miral and their allies ever could.
Amateur 🙂
The public outburst alone got her dishonor,
anything she did other than ask for forgiveness
only dug it deeper. That group lost way more
than the “Empress” position just now. Ahmya
Did far less than this broad did, and they
wanted to remove her. I think one the Cats
need some “Freddy Kurgar” gloves for this
kind of act!
What was that Rudyard Kipling poem,
“The Female of The Species”?
I think (Sora?) is going to be taught a
very painful lesson by Ahmya as to what
exactly that means.
Well! That I was NOT expecting! I figured the “jilted” one
would pull something but not that. Sure hope Miral was
wearing some of the bullet-resistant undies. Otherwise
she may never have kits again. That bullet path looked
like it went into her lower abdomen. I’m not worried
about Miral surviving in any case. Surely they are mere
moments away from a trauma center. Modern emer-
gency medical science can easily handle a GSW.
The woman having a gun is extremely unusual for
Japan. They never had the gun culture we here in
the States do. Actually nobody else in the world
does. But gun ownership is exceedingly rare in Ja-
pan. I guess we’ll see how Miral fared come Wed-
nesday.
What is the deal with Ahmia’s get-up? The Emperor
is in normal clothes. What’s the deal with Ahmia?
She looks like someone dressed for larping.
Pure speculation, but Ahmya is a trained warrior of a warrior clan in
service to the Emperor, and one or both of them wanted her garb to
reflect that, whereas Higashi is a non-combatant, an administrator,
and wore garb to emphasise that. In spite of which, look who put
their body in the way of the bullet during that tackle.
Three shots to the abdomen. Barring miracle material unmentionables,
Miral’s organs are going to be in bad shape. Bright side, Catians are
universal recipients as well as universal donors.
I just noticed Ahmya’s sword. I’m not surprised she doesn’t have her
family katana back, not even for this, but I am surprised to see her
wearing a European longword — almost a zweihander for her. Come to
think of it, it might not have been inappropriate for Miral to be wearing
the Shimizu blade, but that might have tipped their hand or have been
seen as reflecting on Shimizu’s honor negatively, in spite of the
current union between the clans. Or it might have just been good
storytelling, since odds are Sora might have gotten the shots off, but
would have been beheaded at the same time.

OH SHIT!!!
here’s hoping she has the new
under armor.!
I’m sure she did, she was asked
to wear it at all times,
same as Minka.
Nope. That was Minka,
in the other storyline.

I’m just saying it’s likely that Miral would have gotten hers by now is all.

Dead on. So much for my speculation about her seeking Ahmya’s
permission in a few years to become a lower-rank concubine.
