Omg you were really on point! Lancelot did cry :'< and cried alone...

I'm both satisfied because it shows how he cared for Percy, and sad because for HIM to cry over Percy, his death must have hit Lancelot soooo hard T_T

I mean look, took what, about two years avoiding Benwick? He refused to go home without Jericho, and even when he found her he still didn't want to go back. Now, only after Percy was gone he did... just. Ouch.

Another thing is, i expected him to be furious over everything, like how he executed Mortlach! But he was grieving and this hurts more wtff ;-; anyway that's also good, to show his vulnerable and younger side. After all he was still 16, even though he was so much much mature than most.

Now idk what to expect for 18-years-old Lance. People said he might go to the dark side now because of Guinevere's vision, but if the dark side means siding with Arthur that would be just so confusing since he's indirectly the reason of what happened to Percy right?!

Firstly, I would like to apologise for the long reply, dear anonymous.

Secondly, I like Lance's behaviour very much too. He killed Mortlach in a rage, but we don't forget that Lancelot is just a child! He acted just like a normal teenager, went home, locked himself in his room and cried for his dead friend. In fact, though I've said it many times, Percy held a special place in his heart. He was his best friend. And the fact that Lancelot only came home because of his friend's death is both sweet and sad.

If I remember correctly, Lance would step into the king's service at the age of 23. And it actually amazes me that some people are totally against this king being Arthur. If that's the case, it's the most logical outcome for me, simply because in the myths (on which 4kota and SDS in particular are based) Lancelot was Arthur's best knight and close friend. So, if Lance becomes Arthur's knight, I won't mind, on the contrary I'll be interested in how it all turns out.
