Yay! So glad to see this is actually happening. One caveat: I must unfortunately confess that neither Jowy nor Luca is precisely my cup of tea, though I don't have any especial dislike for them. I obviously think this is awesome regardless, but... in the interest of full disclosure, I suppose

I'm really pleased that you're reading -- and enjoying -- this despite neither of the central characters being favorites. It's one of the best writercompliments I can get, because hey, something about this crazy thing must be engaging. :D (Mith's never been big on them, either, and I admit that I do a little dance of triumph when I show her bits of this thing and she gets hooked.)
And I have so many thoughts about Jowy's arc over the course of the game and what exactly is going on inside his head, because he is my precious baby in II, but I will spare you the tl;dr because most of what I think his journey was is chronicled in this fic, anyway. Suffice to say that listening to Luca Blight is a really bad idea, dude, no matter how much you're telling yourself that you aren't. The reading-people thing is something I'm having fun playing with, too, especially as it pertains to leadership; Riou's skill at that is why he's a good commander, whereas Luca gets by on raw strength and charisma. And Jowy doesn't quite have enough of either
