Alright, Fanbook 6 time!
We have Dirk's Preparing to Become a Noble. I think this one goes after P5V6's Magic Tools for Children. Which is where I've stuffed Detlinde's The Lanzenave Envoys.
@kuali said in Alternate Reading Order:
First is Detlinde's The Lanzenave Envoys. I don't really have a specific position for this one. Its before the funeral and after the Archduke Conference... That said, I don't really want to break up the block of chapters from Report on the Archduke Conference to Mother and Daughter, to put it between the two Papermaking chapters, or put it back-to-back with My Hopes and Their Problems, which leaves... Either after Prologue or after Magic Tools for Children. In think, in this case, I'll go for the latter - making it the final chapter dealing with the aftermath of the Archduke Conference.
In which case, I think I might move Detlinde's chapter to after Making Maximal-Quality Samples. Giving us a running order of:
Mother and Daughter
My Hopes and Their Problems [Lieseleta]
Magic Tools for Children
Preparing to Become a Noble [Dirk]
Preparing Fey Paper
Making Maximal-Quality Samples
The Lanzenave Envoys [Detlinde]
The Spring Coming-of-Age Ceremony and Sylvester's Departure
Then we have the Manga chapter From Me to You. Rozemyne's in the High Priest robes, but Kamil's still a baby, so this has to be in Part 3 somewhere. I haven't the faintest clue where, though. Any suggestions?
Edit: For now, I think I'll pick after Discussing How to Improve Hasse, where Benno's being overworked thanks to Sylvester's not-yet-reduced development schedule for the printing industry.
Then another Manga chapter, Hartmut's Vow. This comes between Rozemyne picking Hartmut and Traugott as retainers, and them formally beginning the roles. This puts it in the gap between My Retainers and Entering the Dormitory and The Better Grades Committee, either before or after Ferdinand's After her Departure. Unless people have strong feelings on the matter, I'll probably go for after.
