Good point. I was trying to do that with Cecelia, but it's a little harder for Brennen to interact because his major character flaw is his lack of sociability. He stands back and observes, because he's tactical (though not tactFUL). Cecelia's "help someone in need" instinct from being on the streets and working with others kicked in, which is why she went to help.

Also, I just noticed that you posted IC, Snarl.
