Yukimura was teaching Reese French, the direct translation was 'bolt of lightening' but it's used to refer to 'love at first sight.' I think that was an important scene to note, why else would they put that specifically in there? Right! And this brings me back to when Morrell falsely translated the stuff about the kanima in season 2. So you never know. Both of these are great pick-ups. This now makes me wonder,is Deaton pulling the same stunt as his sister with a misinterpretation? I would hope that he is more good than that, but it is also his main purpose to keep the balance. Ugh, the questions, LOL!!

I don't think he would've done it on purpose, if he did. He did say his archaic Japanese isn't that great. I mean, whose is? Except maybe Mrs. Yukimura's. It's not even like there was a lot of stuff to read through to get the context. It was a teeny tiny scroll with what looked like a small handful of characters on it. Lots of room for interpretation, and misinterpretation.
