However, I'm glad that my characterization of Subaru doesn't fall flat compared to him, because I found him much more difficult to write than Seishiro.
Yue's story is really evolving in the back of my mind, though I'm not sure I can grasp enough of the place and time to get it to work properly - I'm a physicist not a historian for 6th Century Japan - but the plot is tempting; not only because of the historical background of the Fall of the Chen Empire in Southern China and the connections between earliest Japan and the Baekje kingdom in Korea. But that would be a 100% original fic and no longer a TBX fanfic, so... On the other hand, I ♥ Yue as a character. ;)
In any case, he is going to make another appearance later on (chap 15 or 17?), likely involving interaction / advise with Subaru. :)
Lady Sumeragi surely knows about the Dao, but the question is how far does she understand the nature of the marks and what they mean esp. for Subaru. And there is the rest of the clan elders, whose positions are to be taken into account, too. But that's chapter 11 and later.
Chapter 9 proved to be a complicated chapter, so it might still take a week or two to complete it.
