I guess I was expecting Rue to be really different -- I had assumed she'd know what she was doing with the dimension-hopper thing, that she was here on purpose for sightseeing, so I planned accordingly and followed through anyway when it turned out otherwise.

I think I need to change up Felix's character quite a lot to balance her, because they're too much alike now -- OR, Felix can simply be a side-character, and there's someone else in the circus that'll actually end up traveling with her. That might be a better way to do it. I don't like these two together, personally -- they're kinda boring. x3

I think I may have an idea to antagonize her, but I kinda don't want to tell you because it's not a fully formed idea and is related to a specific character. I'll post and speed things up a little, and then maybe I'll have a better grasp on it. If you're cool with dropping Felix, I'll go do that. ;)
