Ashton saying that Bell's Hells have to decide "who we're going to be next" - who, not what they're going to do, because in their mind FCG's loss has transformed the identity and purpose of the group. Ashton having previously donned his sort of "superhero" attire, trying on that sense of self... I wonder if they'll put it aside now or double down

We know Orym is mad because he's making liberal use of the "ma'am"s and honorifics. A subtle but distinct difference from when he's actually being polite

This is a deeply compelling (and frustrating, intentionally so) characterization of Liliana in that its. Spot on of like- Liliana has been bought in. She's already been won over. She has believed in and dedicated herself to a cause that has made promises and painted a picture of a world she wants so badly that it is unfathomable to turn away from it. She's been entrenched in a world and a mindset that does not allow her to turn away.
Its a cult. Its a cause.
And the arguments are awful and nonsensical and they go in circles and are steeped in rhetoric, not reason. And under it all, if Liliana sways- it is because she feels something- the fear of losing her daughter, the physical evidence of the loss that is piling up with no evidence of the payoff, not yet. It is not because the arguments are making her see reason. Its not because she has. Changed her mind.
Liliana is human, who wants, and feels, and breathes, and thinks, and the feeling, and the wanting- that, that is not something that a neatly organized debate was ever going to change.
"This doesn't make any sense!" It doesnt have to. Its just that it feels right. No persuasion roll alone can break through that.
Its great characterization! Its very real! It also sets me on edge and makes me want to throw her through a window the first chance i get, god dammit Liliana.

I think I made a post about this way early on but I fucking love how Chet handles people that the party disagrees with. He always pulls off the little "now, i completely understand where you're coming from, i get what you're saying, even if these guys dont, haha, but, for clarity-" followed by an incisive, clever, pointed question. And it works, so fucking often, and its just.馃憣so satisfying to watch.

Turns out you can't undo cult conditioning in one persuasion check!
