the fact that iron bull opens his recruitment conversation with pretending he doesn't quite remember the name of the the inquisition's ambassador. Jose-what's-her-name-again. he's just a big dumb jock no thoughts head empty mercenary who likes fighting and drinking don't worry about lil old me inquisitor! I'll hit things for you if you'd like as long as you pay me! ],) and then right after he reveals he's a spy he drops that he knows not only the name of your spymaster and how she operates but also her haircolour. (but like in a safely bro-y way tho! make that fighting and drinking and fucking! I'll be useful to you but in a real meathead non-threatening kind of way I'll be too busy bedding chantry sisters to do any real harm ],) continue to not worry about lil old me inquisitor!)

Tor: Hey Vesna. I didn’t know you have a rodent.
Arne: Nice to meet you! I’m Arne, Tor’s husband.
Vesna: It’s a DOG. You didn’t say you have a BEAR… and apparently a husband too.
Arne: Would you like to come for a cup of tea? Tor just baked cinnamon buns.

Thinking about Taniks again. Thinking about how the Vanguard depicts him as some sort of unfeeling monster, a cruel being incapable of understanding sympathy, and yet despite his savagery and the disdain in the way others speak about him, he's still not a mindless killer. He has honour, albiet one twisted by years of bloodshed. He challenges you in the ways of old the first time he encounters you, calling upon a time when his people had the luxury of playing fair. When Cayde killed him, he returned the favor in a manner that was fair- eye for an eye, his life for the life of a friend. He has a sense of dignity, too, even if its obscured by the gruesome nature of his work: when hired to bust Askor out of prison, he scorned the Winter Kell for not freeing better Eliksni warriors (like Eramis) whom he greatly admired. He refuses to swear a house-pledge not just because he cannot be tamed, but also because he despises the arbitrary old customs that keeps his people stagnating, when they could feasably have taken Sol for themselves. He's looked down on for his bloodied claws and the fact that he is now more machine than Eliksni, but he does what he needs to survive, and was willing to work alongside House Salvation to further their cause of regaining the power they lost on Riis, striving for a better future for his people rather than simply chasing his bloodlust
It makes me think about how he really isn't any different from our Guardians. Just like us, he's a survivor, rising back from the dead again and again to fight- not for pride, or what he believes in, but because he's hungry for loot and the thrill of battle (how many times have we been called out for that, after all? Lightbearers aren't saints- they kill because they want loot or because they enjoy it. We're no better than he is). He's no longer considered fully Eliksni the same way we're no longer considered fully human, and he's sent after the enemies of the Eliksni the same way that we're sent after enemies of the Last City. He's slaughtered us the same way that we've slaughtered his kin. He's not a monster insofar as he is a mirror, held up to us to let us see what we are through the eyes of the other side. Our narrative foil
I know that its just a meme at this point that he keeps coming back, but honestly I'd love to see him in Final Shape or the episodes at some point, with maybe more lore entries about him/from his perspective. We've only got one so far, but it's something that unveiled a lot about his character, and what we saw was super interesting and spoke to him being a fellow with a lot more depth than what the Vanguard wants to give him credit for

(!!) there's a bungus & a wungus among us... (alt under readmore)
[ID: image 1: a drawing of engineer & mercenary from risk of rain 2. engineer is hugging mercenary from behind, hands overlapped over merc's abdomen. there's little green flowers around his head. merc is looking back with a little jagged line indicating surprise next to his head. a speech bubble with a blushing face is pointed towards mercenary & another with a smiling face for engineer. image 2: a drawing of them as among us beans with a heart between them. they both have mushroom items from the game on their heads (engie has bustling fungus, merc has weeping fungus). two little among us babies are behind engie as his turrets. merc has his sword on his hip. End ID]
