If I was Fukuzawa I would've gone ballistic because WDYM my childhood bestfriend sacrificed his morals and thousands of lives and even HIMSELF in hopes of preventing a war that DIDN'T EVEN EXIST because your ass decided to lie???
Oh you going down motherfucker.

exam 5 for me... tomorrow!
honestly have been feeling really nervous for this exam since my classmates have either failed it or just barely passed. and i had less time to study this time around because i rushed to book the exam.
so i drew this little encouragement early cuz i need the reminder that no matter what happens tomorrow, i did what i could and i didn't compromise on my boundaries—and that is its own victory.
and i hope that you'll be reminded to celebrate your own big and small victories too!
"You are nervous and that's okay! You did your best! You set boundaries! You took breaks! We're so proud of you, Starlight! Whatever happens, we'll always be here, cheering you on!"

so Teruko is Yosano if she wasn’t saved and was never taken out of that wartime environment and if she never had the chance to develop her own identity outside of violence and protecting the person who rescued her

based on what fukuchi said regarding the one order, fyodor can't use it. the one order has already been configured to fukuzawa. it's not clear that fyodor knows this (although it's explicit that fukuchi didn't trust fyodor).
it's also telling that fukuchi comments that fyodor wouldn't be able to interfere. he doesn't clarify with what fyodor wouldn't be able to interfere. (such as, for example, fukuchi reconfiguring the one order against fyodor's conception of the plan.) it's also relevant that fukuchi says "no one else could have thought it up," indicating he understands, to some degree, fyodor's genre of strategic reasoning. surely, then, he's picked up on fyodor's overt blind spots regarding others' capacity for trust and subversion based on trust.
that fyodor can't command the one order renders fyodor's threat moot, although nevertheless informative.
because if the one order coordinates all of the users' subordinates, then anyone subordinate to fukuzawa could be commanded by fukuzawa. bram, shortly before fyodor took him, pledged himself as a knight to aya, even forsaking his prior title to subordinate himself to her.
his subordination to aya is so deeply ingrained that fyodor even still calls her princess and affirms that the vow remains.
in other words, all aya has to do to give fukuzawa control over the vampires. is subordinate herself to fukuzawa. vow with her whole, fierce heart that she is his to command. or, fukuzawa can reconfigure the one order to respond to her voice; if fukuchi was able to transition the authority he was granted to use it to fukuzawa, then fukuzawa should similarly be able to do the same.
tl:dr, the one order is useless in fyodor's hands, and, together, fukuchi's love for and trust in fukuzawa and bram's love for and trust in aya are a chekov's gun.

Since the last BSD manga chapter destroyed us, I propose a BSD Wan episode where the Hunting Dogs help Teruko regain her childhood.
In other words, sleepovers, birthday parties, shopping trips, a visit to the zoo, makeover sessions, a visit to the amusement park, you name it.
The problem is that the Hunting Dogs are still just as insane as they usually are, so everything is chaotic as always. Just Teruko and her crazy found family of coworkers attempting to watch My Little Pony and Winx while Jouno and Tetchou argue over what should be the menu for a birthday party.
Bonus points if Tachihara asks Higuchi for suggestions (she's the only one with a normal childhood as far as we know). Also Kenji shows up with a cow (Tetchou invited him).
Fukuchi is NOT invited.
