I feel like I keep going “wow, this iconic encounter is fun”, but they are. I like how matter-of-fact Iseph is written here. “I killed this, I shot that, I did this for that result.” But I also like how despite that seemingly emotionless approach, they do clearly care about protecting people at risk. The note of needing their odds to be better, not necessarily for the sake of their own survival, but for the sake of Lucent Station is a nice touch, as is them taking in a vulnerable android while on the job. Just like how I like Pakelia and hope she shows up again, I want the same for Avel.
