I feel I should respond to at least part of this review, so here I go. Hopefully I can sound calm and collected, instead of just raging.

What would you say is the difference between a character being an NPC and needing approval? When I first thought of Trigo, it was my intention to leave him as a background character, but events in various RPs transpired so that he had to get involved. In life, there are no main or background characters, only people who are more or less involved in what's going on. There's no law of fiction that says people can't grow to have a bigger role in events, or that once important characters can't fade from the spotlight. I agree I crossed the line somewhere; I just would like some more info about where the line is so I don't cross it again.

I probably wasn't clear enough with the guns. I did not mean that Destra and Sestra were lever-action shotguns, because they were always meant to be break-action  And as for the reloading, I cleaned up the explanation and found this video of a guy doing exactly what I meant. I don't know how much you know about guns, but that video shows what a break-action shotgun means. The only difference between that guy's gun and how Trigo does it that Trigo's guns have the barrels on top of one another, not to the sides.

It may not be the most rational fighting style, but RWBY is a world where we can have people fly through the air with recoil and use weapons larger than they are. Holding a gun under your arm to reload it in the middle of a fight is nowhere near the most outlandish thing we have on this wiki.

 Keeping the stocks would probably go a long way to balancing the weapons out, so I intend to keep them. I wish I had the animating skill to show you how Trigo melds these three fighting styles together, but remember that real drunken boxing was never meant to be practiced while actually drunk, and actually requires extreme precision disguised as formless shambling. (I really should find a better video to illustrate what I mean by drunken boxing...)

And the concept of resonance can occur with anything that can carry a wave. Resonance with sound is the most common, but anything can do it. If you would like some more examples, check out my link in that part of the guide, or go look up the Tacoma Narrows Bridge or Tesla's earthquake machine. Or go outside and push a child on the swing set, it's the same idea.

As for your notes on the backstory and age, you are completely correct, and I will fix those as quickly as I can find time with finals. Thanks again for your time, and I hope I can give this character back to Pending soon.

Sincerely,
