Personally, I don't have any particular investment in the coming fight. Alexi and Cydone are dead, and Miyu doesn't care. Artoria'll be there but I don't care enough about Ira or Victoire to bother trying to affect the outcome of the battle. I feel like I asked for a pork chop (rescue Fran), and got given a piece of steak. Now, they're similar, and the steak might even be better. But it's not what I asked for and you pretending it is feels weird.
