Yay. I've been writing. For once. :P
âif you must know, itâs not that I donât consider you unthreatening. But it is my belief that you, at least for now, have no intention of harming me.â
   âSound about right.â Confirmed Loden. âAnd you picked up on that⦠how?â
   âIf thereâs one thing I know about menâ¦â The girl rotated around, and began to glide down the hallway. ââ¦they arenât likely to harm someone theyâve been so blatantly making eyes at whenever possible.â
   Damn. Caught out by hormones? That was a new low. Loden could feel himself beginning to flush crimson.

So, author's commentary on these lines, because (at least in my mind) this is worth pointing out. I think this shows how Loden has changed as a character between now and what he will eventually become. Though he's still people-savvy, there are some gaps in the armour, if you will. Some stuff he doesn't yet know what to do/avoid doing to master his craft. The beginning of Full Spectrum, as it turns out, is a nice contrast to this, as he is able to flirt with Lavonne without the special agent having any idea what he's really thinking. I'm also going to be delving into Loden's perception of Miyuki, and how his "evade danger" mindset compares to her "face danger head-on" mindset - through, of course, a classic Loden Adalwin interior monologue.
TLDR: Look closely, and see character development. :P
