1) "She spent some time socializing with Ruby and (possibly) co." (And remember: Her friendliness with them was a total lie, and she showed no signs of enjoying their company in the slightest).

2) A single sentence at the end, which while it can be interpreted as guilt, can also be interpreted as condescence. So... what about Mercury turning good?

Raised to be an assassin, (apparently) abused by his father... The life of an assassin is the only lif he knows. It's the only thing he knows how to do, what to be.

I'm not saying he should turn good or that I want him to, but he seems like a less obvious candidate than Emerald.
