Man I love your Villain Flora AU sm...!! Let Flora kill ppl!!

Speakofwhich, how would you compare her first kill with her last as part of the Bison Wranglers? :)

AAAA OMG YAY :D I'm glad you like it uwuwu

Tbh I say "Let Flora kill ppl" but she tries to avoid killing whenever she can. She's got very good aim and can usually immobilize people without actually killing them and uses that to avoid getting a Higher Body Count.

I haven't scripted a lot of BW scenes (consequence of splitting my attention between this, CoU and uni *cries*) but I'm thinking her first kill would be something out of impulse that would take a while for her to get over. Then she'd decide she doesn't want to do it anymore and try to look for non-lethal solutions to things which is when she starts actually pitching in with her ideas for operations (and as a result starts climbing the ranks bc they work)

Obviously murder is easier when she's not the one doing it so her last kills (if there are any) would be carried out by subordinates when she's already Commander. As shown later on she really does not have the strength to shoot someone point blank. She's not completely cold-hearted by the time Layton gets to Steam Bison, she just does what she's been convinced needs to be done.
