Getting nearer to the finale, as part 8 looms! 8 will clear out this second bracket, and lead into the big finish in the third!
Almost had this ready earlier, but it really did keep getting bigger. It's never by design, I actually went in thinking this would be a shorter chapter, but things never felt full or satisfying enough, so...yeah. yeah, there's some spikes in this one. But we're nearing the end again, so it's time to start really escalating!
We're also adding another wrinkle, for next time! You'll see, soon enough–I mean, if you read part 7 first, that is X3 Otherwise, you're just guessing, which you can also do if you're a chaos type >.> The term listed might not quite what it looks like, on first glance!
One last group left, and it wound up being an interesting one <3 Here goes, who gets the biggest here??
