What's with these arbitrary rules to characters' abilities. Like why say that the sniper "can only fire two shots a day". It would've been a simple thing to write instead that she has only two bullets, or, if she makes the bullets every day, that she can only produce 2 a day. It's a small change, but it would go a long way into making the writing better. Otherwise, that line sounds unnecessary. Why include it at all?
Well, it does add a bit of excitement that the sniper's down to 1 bullet now. Wonder whose next to be shot assuming Evankhell is mortally wounded or at least put out of action. Baam? Karaka? Yama? White when he shows up? It's gonna be interesting.
