can't read my poker face
Chapter 11's title is taken from "Poker Face" by Lady Gaga
Hell yeah Lady Gaga!
...Anyway, we start with interrogating Lamia, who still refuses to talk about her orders. She's not gonna budge, and we know that's gonna be her downfall. I love the contrast because reasonable rulers and mindless minions.
Then our main crew discuss Nyna and the stuff about Archanea, and what's going on. I really love that they're not blindly going into battle like in canon, but that's because canon was a different situation altogether, anyway. Also! Ange has limits to her telepathy! I wanted to explore that for a good while, and here was the perfect place!
Oh yeah, this is a Gaiden chapter, so we get to meet Clarisse. And yes, Lena is here! Since plot is working differently (which will be revealed once we reach how it diverged), I thought her being with Wrys would be an awesome spot to appear.
And here we get to see Ange flirting with Clarisse as a distraction/battle tactic! Ange is very good at that, and she's got enough battle experience to figure out how to deal with her bow, as well.
...LOL at Katarina being all, "Wait, what do you mean flirting, Clarisse? She never did that to me." I really wanted to show that Clarisse was one of Ange's type. XP
