Hmmm... maybe Clipper does //chokes// before James is killed? Or Clipper drifts from James eventually? Cause I still picture Connor and Clipper to remain close friends as they become older and finally... FINALLY... get to return to the Homestead and visit the graves of their fallen brothers.

And oh god, Charles causes the deaths of his daughters... I'm sure one of them would have been named Isabella (after Charles' mother) and Connor probably names the other twin either Deborah...

My heart went running off again from the constant angst abuse.
