Spoiler for updates:

Names-wise, I think we can leave that for later. Luthor, for now.

2) The hats are more of the Darcens' own requests. Personally, Louise doesn't mind either way, but since they are more comfortable with the hats on, she shrugs her shoulders and just let it go.

3) As for Selvaria, I do hope to make across the point that she found meaning to her existence besides Max. Her time with the Rats made her realise that there are people who cared for her as a person (and I do intend for Louise to say it right in her face.). Surely, Selv isn't THAT unfeeling of a person?

4) That's it then: we go for the coincidence-turned-hot-on-heels path.

Believe me: The moment I start to imagine the fight, "cat fight" isn't what I have in mind. No, make that "earth shattering kaboom".

Spoiler for Further on in the plot...:

After Alicia's tearful surrender (thanks to Welkin), it was time for everyone to rest and heal from their injuries. However, it was clear to Welkins that Gallia's fall was only a matter of time. However, how it came about was a shock to both the Rats and Squad 7: von Borg had surrendered, and been promised that he would retain his position. However, Cordelia would be deposed as Princess. Even worse, was that Gregor would be allowed to deport all Darscens in Gallia to his mine. By now, the Rats and Squad 7, through their fraternization during the various captures, seem to have developed trust between them. When Max declared a day for von Borg to be officially sworn in, Louise decided to do the unthinkable: On Welkin's request, she would have a coup at the ceremony, and "request" that Cordelia be left in charge instead of von Borg, and the Gallian Darscens be spared deportation.

Along with her fights with Squad 7, Louise had been doing her own snooping, thanks to help from her fellow cadets during her time at the academy. They did get some info from Intelligence, but between her own contacts and Welkins', they managed to piece together von Borg's treachery. Louise's own contacts digged up some secrets about the prince, secrets which he no doubt wished to remain unknown. His attempts to hog all the credit for subduing Gallia only added to Louise's ire.
