Glad to see that this chapter finally arrived and I hope everyone enjoys it. We got the insights that Lord promised with the exploration of what it means to be on a rapid response team, which is why he had chosen this perspective in the first place, and it was very meaningful.
I'm a bit disappointed the interlude cut off where it did though, knowing what the Protectorates full declassified debriefing is would be interesting because RCB would have to decide to reveal shardspace. Miss Milita reported shardspace years ago and it was given a case number but the report was classified, so no one knows about it, but here Joe's ability to scan their shards for data is tacticaly relevant which would be a big reveal.
The final point I wanted to make was that this was a good reminder of an old post about the unseen threats in the Parahuman series. The guild regularly takes down nascent A and S class threats preventing Enchida situations, they just don't do a PR blast about it like the PRT do. There are dozens, maybe hundreds of incredibly dangerous parahuman that have been either birdcages or killed by PRT and Guild teams before the story's start and Taylor would have never heard of any of it, it's really cool to think about and this interlude reminded me of that, bravo!
