then Ada becomes an illegal contractor (I am guessing with W-rabbit or Will of Abyss, w/e u want to call it because they both want "oz")

Grr, I can see Ada becoming a tragic character like that unfortuantly. One of the themes in the series is people making contracts with the Abyss to accomplish something and having those contracts go horribly awry. But at the same time I don't think that every person in the series is going to end up with a contract so I would just say that Vincent is going to use Ada as a hostage, but that's already been done with Sharon so maybe Vincent will just throw her in the Abyss, push Oz over the edge and then see what happens next.

More like finally break down. The number of near BSODs he had in the recent chapters were just about concurrent. Hate/Love to see how Oz's is going to let go when no one's around to rein him in.

I'm still wondering who/what Oz actually is. I used to think he was just Jack's reincarnation, but then they said he was a container (which would usually count as a reincarnation, but then they said if Oz died, Jack would return, or something like that).
In addition to the fact he can use B-Rabbit's power (well, that could be attributed to his status as an illegal contractor), and he seems to have DID.

The way I have interpreted it was that Oz is his own person (his own body, mind, soul, all that good stuff) and that Jack's soul happens to reside in his body as well. Reincarnation would indicate that it's the exact same soul and since what Jack did seems to be similar to what Glen was trying to do I'm inclined to say it's more like a possession than reincarnation. I'm just curious if Jack's soul has been in Oz since he was born, which would explain why his very birth was a sin but leaves a big plot hole on how Jack knew that Oz would be so pivotal, although that could be blamed on the time-shifting nature of the Abyss and Jack took advantage of that; Or if Jack's soul entered Oz later, like at the coming-of-age ceremony when Oz makes the bell toll and Oz only saw Jack for the first time after he got out of the Abyss.
And pardon all my run on sentences, grammar does not seem to be my strong point today.

Just got Vol 8. There's a short story titled "Pandora Hearts". Seems to be the proto-layout for the Pandora Hearts we know now, with Gil, Oz, Abyss and Pandora, Contractors around. Though the meaning of those terms differ by some here.
Also a couple of pages that I don't think was covered in the manga translations are in here. Reim comes from a noble house as well and has been working in the Barma house since young. He was tasked with delivering some letters from Rufus to Cheryl one day. Duchess Cheryl tore up the letters after reading them and since Reim was told not to return until he got a reply from her, he stayed at the Reinsworth household for two years.

The royal family probably survived the tragedy of Sablier. Otherwise the remaining noble houses would have engaged in bloody fighting to take over the country, the Vessalius household wouldn't have been as prominent as well. As for Break, his actual age is probably like nearly fifties by now I guess? Add to that it is his 2nd contract. Double the stress of not aging as well.

I know a few people on the PH LJ came up with some really good timelines the other day explaining the ages of Break and Sharon and the rest, and I remember Reim being there! I had been puzzled when it was said he was Duke Barma's servant since I remembered him at the Rainsworth house, the trouble of having crazy masters I suppose.

A combination of laziness and curiosity if anyone else would revive the thread kept me from posting about this month's chapter. Soooooo
Spoiler for hopefully better late than never, chapter 43:
Wow, that was more than expected, again. XD It's not even like a ton happened in this chapter.
