Crying doesn't mean anything, Natsu may cry after being humiliatingly defeated by someone, Cana may cry after realizing what failure she really is.....! And I doubt that Mashima could kill off anyone now: Of course not the 4 big main, not Ever + Elf (since they have just become canon), not Juvia + Gray, not Lisanna (since she has just been brought back, though I really hope that she really dies -__-), not Gajeel + Levy (another canon couple, and Gajeel is a DS anyway, who has a huge role in the future),..... The only one that has a chance to die is Makarov, but if Mashima wants to kill him off he would have done it when he was shot by Hades....
