I think this arc is going to parallel the tv station arc in terms of Fiona's character development. I also have hopes for this arc (and I'm gonna get there) but my prediction is that Fiona is going to see that Yor is competent—in fact, in some ways, more so than herself, either in protecting Anya or in caring for Loid or both—and will realize that Twilight deserves better than her, and begin to move on.

My reasoning for this is partially timing—we did just see Yuri begin to have this emotional journey—but also her thoughts at the start of the arc, partially foreshadowing that Yor's competence is going to matter soon.

There's also a peak chance in this arc for Fiona to see a different competence from Yor: her ability to care and comfort Loid/Twilight, that Nightfall would never succeed at providing.

And—if this is finally, finally the "Loid/Twilight realizes his feelings" arc, how completely incredible would it be to have Fiona giving him permission, implicitly or explicitly, with something of the form: "For your own good you need to trust someone to carry some of your burdens, and she is a better partner for you than I am."—would this be enough, you think, to get him to reconsider? Or would Sylvia need to weigh in as well?

And this brings me to some hopes for this arc:

Soft twiyor moments I will never apologize for wanting this

Twilight stays helpless, these are the consequences of his failure to trust anyone else

Yor and Fiona are badasses together semi secretly

Fiona getting over Twilight because she sees how good Yor is for him as discussed above

And finally! Really I think Endo has been doing a great job bringing Twilight as low as he can be without being completely incompetent and I am really hoping this is in service of him realizing his feelings and deciding to trust!!

Anya and Yor being in danger while he can do nothing about it is peak on the list of possible triggers here

Twilight realizing how important it is to let people in

And this gets to none of the possible Strix action that could occur but let's just say I'm here for it!!!!

Merlin: Uh… yeah?

Arthur: for how long?

Merlin: Since birth.

Arthur: And you’re a dragon lord?

Merlin: Yeah my father was and it gets passed down.

Arthur: Sounds like royalty.

Merlin: No? I don’t think so.

Arthur: Yes it is, that means you’re a noble, a lord. We can get married now!
