Or wanting to keep the ever so important advantage of surprise, but the staff of that madhouse can become vicious when it comes to enforcing rules. Head-on confrontation with them is a losing proposition.

You'll be better off playing with them, with classics like 'line up the shot to match the end of the charges list' or 'Charge them while they're dying'. I'm sure a professional like you can think of better ways around that problem. And I'm sure you have the tech savviness to use the rest of our toys to a good use too.

Dax and Lorson have a funny banter dynamic going, and their clashing personalities (and Lorson's utter newbieness) led to some good lines throughout ("Doctor what" and the Dex score scene are standing out to me right now for some reason).

And then the ending happened, and ... hoo boy, I wonder what Lorson's in for in the inevitable followup interlude. Not gonna be fun.

Ah, this was a nice, calm mission. A good example of a more experienced character leading a newer one through the ropes, and letting them learn about missions first-hand. I'm amused by Lorson learning to read the Words by adjusting the settings of his prosthetic eye.

And that nice, calm set-up sure gets ended with a bang. I did not see that coming at all. On Lorson's side, it shows both the level of confidence he felt when operating in his previous role as a part of the Star Wars canon, and the fact that those experiences really didn't prepare him for PPC missions at all. On Dax's end, I like that he broke from his usual lighthearted, flirty tone to display to Lorson how serious his actions were. It's fun because it shows that the serious agent of the pair has a careless side, while the easygoing one has a duteous side.

Having the 'kill the Stu as soon as plausible' mindset bend a little is probably gonna be the goal of this character arc.

Very smooth dialogue play, by the way! When it comes to banter, they seem to be settling into a nice back-and-forth.
