Both characters had escaped from the LAWmen by making a “trap” that leads to their respective group of LAWmen to die from fall from fall damage, one at the near beginning while the other at the end. The whole title with both of them stating that they had soloed 1000 players on their own. Both holding the belief that players are just violent in general (or at least, not really holding them in any high regard). Both want to protect their friends by isolating themselves in some way (Spoke at the beginning of his vs 1000 while Wemmbu near the end of his vs 1000). Which makes me wonder if they saw themselves in the same bad light as each other…?

so interesting how CXS, from the beginning, is a character who specifically emphasizes the importance of a "trustworthy" partner, of mutual companionship — and how LG is constantly omitting and obscuring truths, trying to protect him mostly yes, but still lying, still shrouded in enigma. LG can never quite relinquish control because he Knows too much; isn't there something tragic in that? in LG carrying this secret burden of saving the one he cherishes most, feeling further away from CXS the more he tries, as the lies by omission, and the half-truths pile up.

all for this earnest, pure soul who above all else just wants someone he can put all his faith into, and rest easy. and how LG is and is not that person — is devoted enough, cares more then enough, too much, and yet by nature of the extent of this care is driving this irreparable wedge between them...
