Hey thanks dude :) and I actually do have a system set up with italicized text, this one just had the bad luck of having a lot of Eliksni dialogue amongst the flashback which automatically reverts it to non-italicized text (since the dialogue is italicized in present scenes) :/ it'd be a little easier to tell if it weren't alien dialogue, just how things turned out for this chapter. Always appreciate the feedback tho, so please let me know if you see anything else :)

It was still a great chapter! I look forward to the ones to come!
