Initial thoughts:
Where the hell are you, man? Don't tell me they left you back in D43... Or maybe you finally took up my offer from back in the outlands.
You're one of the few units I've ever felt a certain of in authenticity. You truly seem to care about your fellow units—almost to a point of self-sacrifice.
Really needing that nerdy, Shakespearian wisdom right about now.
Updated thoughts (26/02/2023):
Gone. Just like the rest. I miss you, brother.

Initial thoughts:
Strange history, you and I. From petty spats and white-knuckled fists to mutual respect and understanding. Maybe we both just had shit to purge from our systems that day.
Regardless, you've shaped up to be a proper unit with keen insight and worthy intellectual input. I'd almost consider you an advisor if such a thing existed in our line of work. Good back and forths.
You'll be a good rank leader one day.
Updated thoughts (26/02/2023):
I wonder what you decided. I will investigate, if I return—when I return. You were always worth keeping an eye on.
Updated thoughts (17/06/2024):
Wonder where you've wandered off to... Last I heard, you left your high-standing position.
I'm sure you'll crop back up, eventually.

Initial thoughts:
A proper colleague. I always favored your neutrality and casual attitude, despite stressful times in our work. Predictable and reliable—traits far too rare in the Civil Protection, unfortunately.
Updated thoughts (17/06/2024):
Welcome to the club.

Initial thoughts:
Smarter than you let on, which can be deceptively dangerous. You keep subordinates on their toes with your wit and command, which I admire.
For what it's worth, I apologize for making you and HELIX's job harder now that JUDGE and XRAY are dead. Double the work for you as rank leaders, but they've likely put new blood in their places now.
Updated thoughts (02/02/2024):
You've come a long way, partner. I picked right.
Updated thoughts (17/06/2024):
Hope you're fairing better in Twenty-Four than things are here. Seems trouble only goes wherever this population is.

Initial thoughts:
I could write a novel-worth of words on every account I've personally witnessed your childish temper tantrums and overcompensating flexes of authority.
But I'm not gonna do that, because you're not worth that effort. I don't think you're gonna change, and holding a grudge is just gonna clutter my head with more plaque. This position is stressful enough.
Either sort your shit or cállate la boca.
Updated thoughts (26/02/2023):
You fucking moron. You did this to me, and now you're dead. And just when I started to tolerate your presence... What a mistake that was. If there was anything valuable your existence ever offered me, it was one thing:
To always trust my initial gut feeling. No exceptions.
R.E.D. Agent (@Hiros) - Imbécil
Initial thoughts:
Fucking idiot. I could hardly take you seriously with that ridiculous haircut. Even with nothing, you still damned me to this operation. Easier to send the problem away rather than actually doing your job, is it?
Doesn't matter. I will not be deterred. Twenty-Four's Civil Protection belongs to ME.
JUDGE-0 (@Taliazure) - Brutas
Initial thoughts:
I don't dislike you, but I am particularly... Lukewarm. You do harebrained stunts and used to always stick to the hip of a rank leader like you were a newborn. Came off as ass-kissing.
But you're trying. I can tell that much.
Keep trying.
Updated thoughts (26/02/2023):
We'll see how you've improved once I return, assuming you're still alive. You were next in line for promotion.
XRAY-0 (@Nezoose) - Burra
Initial thoughts:
I want to like you, but your ego holds you back. You carry this air of superiority around you and feign friendliness—like your words are holding some ulterior motive.
I know your imperfections. I've seen them firsthand. Stop calling everyone an idiot and learn some humility.
Updated thoughts (26/02/2023):
Another example of my mercy coming back to bite me. I should've put a bullet in you back in District Nine, yet I hesitated. Why did I hesitate...? Did I feel guilt, seeing you recoil and beg for forgiveness? No, I've seen that reaction far too many times for me to back out.
Maybe I just felt inclined to give you a chance, considering our history. Maybe I gave you some benefit of the doubt. Maybe I felt it poetic to let you stew in your own misery just a bit longer until finally deciding to hover that barrel between your eyes.
Consider your final moments to be an act of mercy, rather than what I did for you in District Nine. Rest now, mujer malvada.
XRAY-0 (@Tengu) - Comodín
Initial thoughts:
You inhibited a lot of traits from your teacher, but seemed to adapt far quicker than she did. Your malice was always evident, but I admire that about you. It's a good motivator. I see a lot of potential in you. If you've not been made rank leader yet, it'll be done the moment I return from this hellhole.
OPHÉLIE LATOURELLE (@RileyTheRoomba) - Desertor
Initial thoughts:
I remember you, once upon a time. A certain subordinate of mine has always taken a liking to you, and I have a feeling it's mutual. Not that it matters anymore. You're both so far opposite of the spectrum, now.
I wanted to give you a chance, you know. The benefit of the doubt. A show of mercy, to try and direct you back into the better side of things. I took your eye as a memento. Yet still you fled. Guess even fear wasn't enough to keep you in your place. Your best trait is that you're easy to underestimate.
Just know, you chose wrong.
FELIX POELKING (@FelixPius) - Crédulo
Initial thoughts:You're just pathetic, frankly. I don't even know what to make of it. It's just sad.
Talking about your girl troubles, about how everyone you've cared for has betrayed you, how you so desperately want to return to the normal life... Making yourself seem small and insignificant so that you aren't eaten up and spat out. I suppose it's some form of survival technique, though, isn't it? It got you this far, after all.
We'll see if it continues to work for you.
Updated thoughts (17/06/2024):
Well then...
You were an interesting one. Didn't take as much enjoyment out of snuffing you out like I thought I would. You made me look stupid by showing you mercy the first time. Had to set things straight for our reunion.
These executions always end in one of two ways: they either fall to their knees and bawl their eyes out for forgiveness... Or spew out a range of insults in a last act of defiance. I pegged you'd be the former type, but I didn't see either.
In the end, you just looked tired. Like a lifetime of actions had finally built up to that one moment, and you knew it.
'Least you held up to your morals in the end, as idealistic and fairy-tale as they may be. Let your death be a warning to the rest of your buddies that we're coming for them, too; to put this futile bloodshed to an end so that we can finally advance humanity into the next chapter among the stars.
Ask to be added!
