Lucas actually came to mind while I was writing the last update. :D I'd not thought of Lucas before then, but I'm guessing something changed in my head in the three months I was away, lol "Hey! I've got something for you :D :D It's a bAg full of BULLETS " * BRRRRRRRRRRT * "Do you like it? :D :D" it...

*Quietly radio Yuuji* "I'm not sure what happened between you and Feb's men, but I've got a plan. Be prepared to put on a show, and play dead. If we can negotiate our way out of this, I'm going to have you fake your death." "Negotiate? We are on all sides of a friggin Mexaran standoff that blew up!...
