I am in between on this. There is nothing wrong with a man crying. It does not give them the emotional depth of a teenager. Plus, black eye, attack from the people he lived and fought with for who knows how long, it probably would get to him. That being said, I think that writing wise, the impact was a little too aggressive, a little too quick. It might have been better to make the crying a second update thing, after a few weeks of just piled on sadness. Of course, this is coming from someone who cries for the same reason Medic does here -- stress. I've had relatives die, and never shed a tear, but things that cause me stress, that will get my tear ducts working, even if I'm not actually sad. Not everyone cries for the same reasons, which is important to keep in mind, but that's a very hard thing to do when out of real life, I suppose.
