What do you mean a good way to return to the council?

Despite feeling guilty he never left the council in the manga, so there really wouldn't be any need to bring him back in, if the KotSS arc itself hadn't made him quit in the first place.

What makes me sad about the KotSS arc is that it's so much wasted potential. The whole matter with Michelle/Imitatia and Lucy almost becoming part of the clock could have made such a nice and tragic story line. And Doranbolts redeeming isn't all that bad either. And we get to see Mirajane fight!

Several nice little pieces drowned in a load of crap :'(
