dangit I had 80% of this written up live but lost it because I'm dum

This is Jealousy: The Issue. Volpe is jealous that he can't be Chiaro for Cesare. Cesare is jealous of Lucrezia's relationship with Chiaro. Lucrezia is jealous that men don't have to be forced into political marriage. Chiaro is not quite sure what to do with his relationship with Lucrezia and loyalty to Cesare.

This is also Pedro: The Issue. Pedro blackmails Lucrezia over the Chiaro thing, and nearly rapes her before Chiaro makes the save. Pedro tips Cesare off, and he finds Lucrezia and Chiaro together. The love triangle....EXPLODES, to borrow UCA terminology. Lucrezia is sent back to be put under house arrest until she can be married off to Alfonso. Cesare kisses Chiaro and then says never to show his face again, at least in part because it's gonna get around that he was boinking the pope's semi-married daughter.

Cesare orders Volpe to cut off the corrupted arm during another attack. Cesare can regenerate that, so that's fun. Volpe still doesn't have Chiaro's boyfriend powers, so that's sad for him.

Pedro's next gr8 idea is to blackmail Cesare over Juan's death. That ends with Pedro buried alive in a jail cell, but Demon Vanozza makes some sort of pact with him, granting him power and escape. Pedro escapes, cuts down a buncha guards, nearly kills Lucrezia and Chiaro, and DOES kill Pantacilia. Somehow Volpe and some mooks manage to capture him. Cesare finds out that Lucrezia and Chiaro have eloped, and takes it poorly. He orders Lucrezia returned, over Chiaro's dead body if need be.

Overall: 7/10
We're finally making progress (in a direction I like) on the big love triangle thing, and it's not what I expected. Pedro was a kinda fun short-term villain, and things were as straightforward this time as they were convoluted the last.

...Man, Pedro JUST got Juan's slot on the character introductions page. Wonder who gets it next? Pantacilia is gone now too so we're kinda running out of even secondary characters lol. I'll say Niccolo and Alfonso.
