Armsmaster and Regent were abrasive enough that they would likely prick Shatterbird’s pride.
…oh hell yes, I would actually love to see Regent and Shatterbird interacting.
Bitch would be a risk at first, but he trusted his ability to manage her and stop any fights from erupting.
Is Jack aware of Bitch’s doglike mind? At least he has experience from managing Siberian.
Siberian would become jealous of any growing relationship between Panacea and Bonesaw.
That’s an interesting notion. Also somewhat scary. We don’t want a green-eyed tiger.
The buried girl was only a candidate because Crawler hoped she was strong enough to fight him. Either she would fail to hurt him and he would grow tired of her, or she would succeed and he would have no reason to stay in the group.
So far it seems like none of the candidates are particularly good for the group’s stability. The only one left is Hookwolf – I suspect he’ll be an exception. Notably, Bitch, the other candidate I think has any chance of actually ending up on the team, is the one that Jack seems to think will be the least trouble out of the ones he’s already mentioned.
That left him two candidates who might work. He doubted either Hookwolf or Bitch had what it took to stay in the group long-term.
That may be the case, but these two have been my main suspects all along. Hell, even before Hookwolf’s Interlude confirmed he was a nominee.
They would soon be replaced, killed by an enemy or a member of the group, but they would not upset his carefully staged balance while they remained members.
Yeah, fair.
