Archon Theorizing

[A_Magical_Unicorn_Rider]

Thancred … As for Minfilia being an Archon, she's not. Least not yet. She could/may one day take Louisoix's place though

Except it's explicitly stated that Thancred is taking Louisoix's place. Hence why they mention he needs to "take it easy."

You're probably right about Minfilia. There's just a compulsion to lump her in with the Archons since they're allied with her, but as of yet we have no proof that she is among their number.

You bring up an interesting point regarding Urianger as well. What does that guy really do when he leaves? He is no longer quartered with the rest of the Scions and lately seems to continually bring back bad news...

Because Urianger is secretly Elidibus. /spoiler

Where was this stated? Because I don't remember this ever being said.

I think A_Magical_Unicorn_Rider means that, towards the end of 2.0 and during 2.1's story line, it is said (by fellow Scion members) that Thancred was overworking himself to prove his worthiness: Thancred was trying to make up for the lack of Louisoix, in a sort of attempt to fill their former leader's absence. Makes sense given what we have learned about Thancred in 2.2 - he owes a lot to Louisoix, it seems.

It was this emphasis on being the best and working so hard that lead him to being susceptible to being possessed by Lahabrea.

Right, but I don't think this means he was slated to take Louisoix's place, per se. I think he was just struggling to fill the void (pardon the terrible pun) as was everyone else. He just overworked himself in the process.

I completely agree.

Same thing.
