I see. [ He has no intention of doing either, sorry Crow. ] ...Since the civil war, things have calmed a little, but...there's still a lot of tension between the factions. Besides that, those in charge...while some of the major players have changed, not all have. There's a great deal of bad blood all around. Not surprisingly, I suppose.
[ There is a moment where Crow is very quiet as he absorbs that. Their main rival is back from the dead. Back from the dead... their main rival.
Osborne.
So. The bastard had survived. That's the problem with trying to shoot him through the heart-- it's supposing he ever had one in the first place. Ha, ha. What a joke.
Guess that makes Crow the punchline.
It's... interesting that no one else had mentioned it. Elliot, Towa, Rean. Then again, who could blame them? It's not like Crow hadn't lied to all of them, and far worse than that. Karma's a real bitch, huh? Or maybe that's payback. Maybe both.
Not to mention not wanting to tell a guy that his entire life's work had been for nothing.
Crow thinks for a moment of all the lives that had been lost, all the blood on his hands just to get that moment. Everyone working feverishly towards that end goal, to the moment where Osborne would lay in a pool of his own blood. G, V, the soldiers at Garrelia Fortress. Countless others, people he'd known. People he hadn't.
[ But he doesn't allow himself more than that one brief moment to let that fly feverishly through his mind before he reacts, reaching to rub the back of his head. ]
Man... figures that bastard couldn't just stay dead.
[ It's a nice try. The brief moment is enough to get Jusis to realize there's more behind the scenes here, but he's not really sure it's his business to pry. It's not like Crow is the most forthcoming person, and Rean has always been better at getting people to open up... ]
I suppose. I will admit I'm still...unclear on the circumstances.

Sounds like the more things change, the more they stay the same. I'm guessing the Noble Alliance lost?
[ He'd imagine so after everything Class VII went through. ]

[ If Osborne's got a way to cheat death... of course he's not gonna go sharing it with everyone around him. ]
Well, all that aside... so Crossbell's been annexed, is there anything else?
