Hee! That was so cute - I like the "we're all going to die and everything we've done will end up crumbling away so what's the point, go ahead and quit." That is some prime reverse psychology there.
I think this is the toughest sequence for me because it's almost entirely character-based, and I tend to outline from a plot stand-point and work out my character arcs as I draft, and I don't have that fall-back for these 15 pages. Which is actually good for me, since it's something I need to work on.
Yes, Erzsebet's the last major character. I've been very excited to get to her. I'll be able to tell more when I've finished the draft and can look at the whole thing, but I've worried about introducing her this late. So we'll see.
