Well, the impression I'm given is that when people in court find each other annoying enough a formal duel can be held to settle the matter. Nasty stuff Garrick can do would be limited... But then, I've always been the one to see the loopholes in any set of rules, be it for good or ill. :p
Also, I'm glad that you like the fight with Minaho. From what I gathered from watching GXP, she strikes me as the sort of character that was criminally easy to rub the wrong way and only because, despite loving Seto, she's tired of her shenanigans and she can only take so much of that...
Oh, and you guys aren't gonna believe this... But I figured out a believable way to include ACHIKA in the story!
Simply put, I'm gonna wing it so Yosho had THREE daughters, not just two, and Achika would be the youngest one of them all. That said, Achika is out there somewhere doing her service, not in the Galaxy Police - that was far too tame for her liking - but in the Galaxy Army.
Thing is, material available on her is kinda limited, so I'm kinda trying to figure out what she should be like.
Thus far, I think she should be very young by Jyurain standards - say about forty or fifty years old. I'm also thinking she should be something of a free spirit. She has heard all about the obligations that the Royal Court tried to force on Yosho and she doesn't really want part in that. I would like that she has a veneer of being a proper noble woman of Jyurai, with the truth being that she has a borderline-masochistic desire for challenge, which is why she's in Galaxy Army and not the GP. (You can tell that Ayeka and Seto probably took turns with her here.)
What I'm going for between her and Garrick is ambivalence. She'll get called in by Seto by whatever means and then more or less foist them onto each other. (Like throwing rocks in a pond...) She'll absolutely love Garrick's take-no-prisoners approach, but it will kinda put her off that he's being Seto willing pawn. She knows that if she gets involved with Garrick then she'll get sucked into the politics, but on the other hand he seems to share her views on the matter. Decisions, decisions...
Minagi will be okay with her - she's kinda the passive one anyhow. The real fireworks would be where Yuki is concerned.
"Hey, what up with the shrimp here?"
"WHAT!? I'm not a shrimp! I'm normal for my age, and I guarantee mine will be bigger than yours when I finish growing!"
"Oh really? They look kinda small to me."
"THEY JUST STARTED GROWING!!!"
Yeah. It'll be like Ayeka and Ryoko all over again. Garrick is gonna have to invest in some forks.
For Garrick's part he'll be kinda torn up on the matter. He likes her attitude, finds her attractive (Oh dear Tsunami it's a PONYTAIL! Please don't hit me with loose socks, too, or I will be powerless!), but worries that she'd be too abrasive and carefree.
Thoughts?
