If the merc just died randomly out of nowhere, how would everyone react? I assume at this stage, nobody would really care…? Which ROs would have a visible change to themselves and who just wouldn’t care?
the ROs not being thrilled with the merc right now or appearing more annoyed than ever when interacting with them doesn't exactly mean they don't care. there's a big difference between being fed up with someone and indifferent to them and none of them are the latter when it comes to the merc. :)
most torn up about it would be royal, bc of the way things ended last chapter and because there was so much still to talk about, but echo wouldn't be too far behind.
echo is not exactly fond of the merc, but it's a close thing considering their history. they would mourn them in their own quiet way and never admit to doing so.
orla would be most inconvenienced by it but also... confused. she puts a lot of trust in the mercs abilities, and them dying hasn't even crossed her mind in a very long time. she'd take the time to mourn their loss as a nuisance and valuable asset.
jax expects the merc to go out with a bang, so a sudden death would throw him quite a bit and there'd be a sense of wrongness to him around anyone that tries to replace the merc.
dante/delilah wouldn't accept it as strange as that sounds. the merc isn't meant to suddenly stop living. they couldn't fanthom them living one second, and ceasing to do so the next.

Ghosts storming away from her because she won’t talk to them in public is nothing new. So, when one of them screams that she’s useless and disappears, she simply watches them leave. “Fucking dick,” she mumbles under her breath. As if it’s her fault that talking to ‘yourself’ in public is considered concerning behaviour! “Oh, I didn’t mean you!” Kamelya cringes at her poor timing as she looks up at a man who has been walking beside her on the sidewalk. “Sorry.”

“Hi!” Hale chimes, catching the attention of a man walking by the stall she’s been browsing. “Would you mind reaching that for me?” she asks, a sweet smile on her face as she gestures to the bright yellow, fluffy hat on the rack in front of her. It’s perfect for Tiff. “I’m a little too short, and trying to jump and grab it would be embarrassing.” She could use her wings to hover, but they’re concealed beneath a warm jacket.

Some years ago a lady brought to the Royal Scottish Museum in Edinburgh a trout covered with a fine coat of white fur. It was pleasingly mounted on a wooden shield and was labelled as follows:
FUR BEARING TROUT
Very Rare
Caught while trolling in Lake Superior off Gros Cap, Near Sault Ste. Marie, district of Algoma. It is believed that the great depth and the extreme penetrating coldness of the water in which these fish live has caused them to grow their dense coat of (usually) white fur. Mounted by ROSS C. JOBE, Taxidermist of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.
Visiting the museum to find out more about her unique fish, the lady was told that it was undoubtedly a trout (either brown or brook) and that its fine white coat was undoubtedly from a rabbit, whereupon she immediately presented the fish to the museum. She had bought this fake in good faith which indicates that the idea of a fur-bearing trout did not seem outlandish to her.
―Stanley Peter Dance, Animal Fakes & Frauds, 1976

Cry time ಥ_ಥ
Henry and Alex slept together after the lake scene, both conscious of the fact that an unspoken "I love you" was in the air.
The difference is that Henry left the bed in the middle of the night looking at Alex for the last time, meanwhile Alex fell asleep looking at Henry and woke up alone.

I too am very excited for when Maddie or Will or any ranger finally get to declare themself “Queen’s Ranger”, but knowing Flanagan, he’s probably not going to just let that powerful moment be. It’ll probably go like
a) a ranger stumbles over their words since it’s force of habit to say “King’s Ranger”, and Flanagan is going to make it a weird “not that there’s anything wrong with a female ruler!!” type of moment
b) the corps is still going to be called “King’s Rangers” because that’s their legal title
c) we are all going to die long before Flanagan gets the balls to kill off Duncan and let Cassandra be queen
