Commentary:
Once again Rikku and Elah get to do a quick team up. It'll be off-screen though. I need to bring the focus back to Lubo's group. Besides, we all know what the outcome of this will be, so I'm comically skipping over it for the time being.
Batuu hasn't explicitly broken the forth wall on a page in a while. He needs to do that more. Although I guess that would require him to actually be onscreen first. It's also been a while since he's said "crap crackers". Oddly enough, the last time he said that was also a time he was ditching a teammate.
Batuu: SHEESH! Where was this attitude of Rikku's when he was fighting Usaro?? owo;
