Raki: "So far so good, eh." *takes a breath* "We'll be departing soon as well, Priscilla."

Priscilla: "Very well, Raki. I'll go ahead if you don't mind."

Raki: "Don't eat too much Priscilla - remember we don't want to alert the local populations."

Priscilla: "I know that." *leaps from the wall all the way to the ground below and disappears*

Galatea: "It still frightens me to no end that she'll actually listen to you with almost no question."

Miria: "Not just her, but the same can go for the rest of us."

Raki: *puts a hand behind his head* "I'm sorry, I know I'm not cut out for this..."

Miria: *smiles* "No, you're doing quite well. You're the one who thought of this plan to strike back at the mainland once they sent their own armies against us. You rallied us along with Clare to strike back for our homes and our lives. It only makes sense that you lead us."

Raki: "I just hope that I do all the ones who came before me justice and not mess up." *slowly unsheathes his sword* "Miria, you'll take charge of the squads to the North, Tabatha, Uma and, Cynthia will assist you. Galatea, you'll aid Dietrich along with Helen and Deneve to the South. I shall break through the middle with the remaining squads along with Clare and Priscilla."

Helen: "Heh, giving yourself the toughest assignment of all? That's fine by me."

Deneve: "How true. There's no way I'd want to be between Priscilla and Clare and yet you're forcing them to work alongside each other."

Galatea: "I actually admire Raki's foresight. Getting two women who hate each other but love him to work together to make sure that he stays safe is a wonderful idea. Suicidal but he's making it work."

Raki: "...I'm glad you all have such faith in me..."

..........It COULD happen ya know

For some reason this made me giggle. No offense :P

I'd say Raki would be a one of a kind personally, Raki's unique in that he can resist being taken over & has at the very least strong willpower. The odds of finding other humans who could resist the destroyer's rods are somewhat low.

don't get me wrong im certain Raki will be turned into something by the org BUT its a farcry from them restarting the male claymores.

never the less an awesome idea if it was possible, clarice's gen always felt like they would be the last of the current type of claymores.

that was a pretty good short fic tempest~ ^^ *claps*

i know it's a farcry with male claymores but having one around shouldn't hurt the org right? raki is possibly the best candidate of being that one male claymore.

Nice, reminds me of Jhon Choner, like in the Terminator, like Raki is leading the resistance against the machines.

I'm very late to this forum, but I'd like to post my ideas anyway.

I liked the fact that the author decided to give Raki a significant boost in strength (for humans, at any rate) during the time skip. I've personally never found him all that annoying, though it wasn't as if I liked him as a character either. Now, he's able to take out those monsters (forgot their names) with ease, and also seems to have gained more confidence. To me, that's a good thing because it makes him more tolerable. As for whether or not I'll like him as a character, we'll see.

P.S. - Man, I laughed so hard when Raki first appeared after the seven year time skip. I jokingly told my friend a year before that chapter came out that the latest chapter has an adult Raki killing a monster with one slice of his sword. The chapter, at the time, was even remotely close to what I had "spoiled" to my friend. But lo and behold! A year later, and what I joked about did come true!

Ok, do you guys think Raki's still a virgin or not?

If he and Priscilla went and did it...heh, well, I'm not complaining

The girl already sleeps with him for crying out loud

Are you saying she's raped him while he slept? (I wouldn't put it past her... )

Roflmao, well, I'm sure he was awake, would be more enjoyable

She probably wouldn't know how to go about, and I can't say much more for him either, but I'm sure her Awakened instincts would point her in the right direction.

Yeah, I think he is.

Priscilla had the mentality and the body of a child. No way they did it.

If people can get away with TeresaxIrene, I don't think it's too much to dream

Priscilla is around just to keep Raki a virgin until he finds Clare. Remember how she scared Renne away?

Then again......could have been more of a "get your hands off my man" sort of thing

[Ryuken]

I don't think they did it. There seems to be absolutely no indication whatsoever that they did.

[clarakiss~]

they haven't. that is obvious and raki wouldn't go in that direction. unless the adult priscilla makes an appearance and wants to be more than friendly with him. but then raki is in deep trouble.

[Shiek927]

Roflmao, guys guys, now don't go and crush my dreams will ya

Well, how to say it... for a period of time they were in same biological age, teens, about 13-14 years old. Early for sexual initiation, but today close to 1/3 of teens started their sexual life in middle school. In medieval times 13 years old girl (and in some countries even today) was old enough to be a bride. So it was possible for them to do it.

...raki wouldn't go in that direction...

Yours faith in Raki innocence is sweet . I just want to point that a few months ago a group of scientist wanted to examine differences between adult men who watched porn, and those who never watched porn. Experiment failed because they were unable to find even single adult male who never seen a porn.
I have no idea if Raki and Priss ever did it, and I doubt we will ever know. But if Raki wasn't at least interested it means he is not a human.

[MisterJB]

If Priscilla wanted it, she could have raped Raki anytime she felt like it.
I doubt very much that she even knows what is sex, she is too childlike.
