Actually I'm theorizing that Hans knows we're Brie somehow. Maybe something to do with his modifications of us. If this is true, he's a valuable ally in convincing the rest we are who we say we are.

Half of his reaction is him seeing someone who looks exactly like his dead younger sister, who's wounded and crying.

Like, you can say whatever about Hans, but you have to be pretty hardcore before you stop noticing things like that.
 
Except we know he just wants a mana-battery to keep Berserker fueled and on his side.
Can you quote the section that says this? I may be wrong, but I don't remember this being stated, or even implied.
And he secretly edited our code without telling us.
Well yeah, and that was a bit of a dick move, but if we does know we're Brie and not Minerva, then he's going to be important in convincing everyone else that we're who we say we are.
 
Hans lost my trust when he edited out code without our permission and without telling us. He's not safe to work with.

We don't have to trust him to use him. If there's someone who can tell our old allies we are who we say we are, that will be extremely helpful in getting them to believe us. Especially if Minerva decided to actually pretend to be us instead of just skipping town.

Nobody is safe to work with, except for Rider. Only now, not even her for quite some time. Trust has nothing to do with working with him.

We worked together with Assassin and Kiara, the ship named "work with no one you can't trust" has sailed approximately a month ago.

Hell considering Rider kept the fact she was accidentally killing people from us I'm not sure we can trust her either

Search function is a pain to use on mobile, but it's the one where Rabbit said something about Gdoc being set to private, AKA I correctly guessed the outcome of the finale story based on if staying silent won. Which to me means Hans still has that motive, he just didn't get the chance to do it yet.

Not talking puts us in a situation of we're alive, we're forced to work with Berserker, Lancer, and Hans, and we're hoping Medb doesn't just get axed in the next five minutes. It's a circular logic that ignores the possibility of fixing things, as much as what can be fixed, now.
*Audibly sweats*


I'm pretty sure my Google Doc is set on private.

Found it for you. I see where you're coming from, but this doesn't mean that Hans is just trying to use us, it means that he is/was the only person who's currently willing to work with us.

Only took two searches, this is what you said that Rabbit made a joke about a GDoc being set to private.

It might not be. But it'd be just as terrible, if not worse. It's asking Rabbit to bail us out of our own fuckup. Which they'll do by making things worse.

Which says absolutely nothing about 'Just a Mana battery to keep Berserker onside' at all. Maybe you were implying that? But it doesn't jump out at me. All that comes across as to me is an outline of how we're limiting our ally options to several less-optimal routes.

EDIT: Ninja'd

I did say we would be forced to work with Hans. Calling it "Mana battery" is just making a euphemism. I try to be very specific in my speech. And saying it means less allies is just quibbling over dictionary definitions, it's only a "technically correct" answer that is missing the intention of the statement.

I still think you're reading way too much from a minor interaction. There are other things that Rabbit could have meant by that in the context of your statement.

Oh really? Which is more likely: that the "Medb will totally recognize us" line of thinking will be wrong, or Hans prevents us from going back to Medb?

My personal interpretation is that Medb doesn't believe us to begin with at least (perhaps Minerva is pretending to be Brie, perhaps we just aren't very convincing), but Hans does, and thus he's the only person we can work with in the short term.
 
The first two options (Suburban, find rider) seem to risk encounters with potentially threatening parties. (Hans, Kiara (if alive), or Carmella) and leave Brie in worse shape physically. Not to mention Berserker's interpretation of "survival".

Dragon Vein makes sense for the immediate concern, Brie's going to need to be in fighting shape for whatever comes next. But it's going to limit options to communicate or act quickly if enemies are pulling something.

Hans being willing to help is unclear. Regardless of believing our identity, he could easily take the chance to either pull something shady, or try to outright force Brie to comply with his goals. Not that those goals would necessarily be terrible to us, but still. Though given his willingness to play ball before (and maybe playing with his feelings about our current form), it could really go either way. (He did stall for us way earlier, after the core fixes.) A safer bet is to get healthier and try not to negotiate from the weakest possible position.

Time to build SL with Berserker, I guess?

Also, ending up on a distant mountain after losing everything to a relative, almost dying, but getting saved by a powerful former enemy? We MCU Black Panther now
