==[[Jack Bennett]] OPINIONS==
* ''On [[Brian Jaffe]]'':  "Brian's cool.  I mean, for a suit and all. Sure he's a bit of a school principle "tell me your problems and let me give you the benifet of some 'guidance,'" type, but he's not too liberal and not too conservative and seems to have taken his job out of a true passion for Law and people's rights.  I can relate to that.  I can say if I had my choice of any kind of lawyer, it'd be his kind.  Sorta reminds me of my dad, only not an asshole.  Now if he'd stop trying to be everyone's big brother...  Well, I guess I don't blame him.  Still he's good people."
** &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"Brian's a good guy, he's probably held it together the best of us the longest.  But lately he's starting to crack up.  I think it's becuase he's trying to hold to much in; he wants to see himself as the glue holding us all together.  That's good, I'm glad he cares, but lately he seems to be losing his priorities, his direction.  Me and Aurther are getting real sick of "Plausable Deniablity."  Eventually he's just going to have admit 'hey, I'm in this,' or else he may make the mistakes of the future." 
** &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"I used to think Brian could do no wrong, but it's hard for me to stomach that he tries as hard as he can to keep from getting his hands dirty.  It's like until recently, he hadn't really decided if he was in this or not.  I've talked about it with Arthur a lot.  I still respect Brian, and I still think of him as my "go to" guy; he's got a good heart and is trying to do the right thing, but he gets blinded sometimes along the way. <br> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;But, push come to shove, no one can deny that, qualms or not, Brian's been there for his friends each and every time we've needed him.  No matter how frustrated I get with him, that makes him my friend for life.  I'm worried, though, about Brian's growing 'war' with Milos; it's like the two are mirrors of each other."

* ''On [[Arthur Redford]]'':  "Yeah one word for you: "psycho."  I mean, damn! Arthur isn't a bad guy, mind you.  I like him; he's got style and a great sense of humour.  But the boy needs to do a little slam dancing and get the testosterone out of his system.  Why is it ex-military guys always seem to run hot on a hair trigger?  Set off so easy?  What happens to all that discipline? Oh well.  In the end, given everything he's going through, he keeps his cool pretty good.  I think if the world decides to go to war with us that I'll just hide behind Arthur and make faces at them.  I'd much rather be on his side then aginst him, you know?"
** &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"I'm worried about Arthur.  He keeps to himself a lot lately.  This thing with the Reaper's had him real shook, and not just because it turned out to be Harley.  I really think Arthur thought it was himself, that he's afraid it would be too easy to become like that.  He's been trying so hard to make up for what he lost, pushing himself to prove to us he's still in this... when we never doubted it.  Still, I think it's hard on him.  But I think he's starting to take a look around at life for a direction."
** &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"Arther is my best friend.  How that happened is hard to say, but he and I've been together one way or another for so long, having Arthur around is a given.  I already lost him once, all those memories I had of our future together, just gone...  I'm worried I'll lose him again.  I guess I'm a bit protective of him, like he's my brother.  Only a brother I can actually relate to, not like my real brothers.  Pretty far cry from my original opinion: PSYCHO!!!"
 
* ''On [[Mandy Smith]]'':  "Mandy?  Wow!  I mean, she runs into burning buildings for a living.  Fuck!  You wana talk X-treem?!?  Shit, I couldn't do that shit.  She's a genuine bonified hero.  Did you see the way she took charge and kept people alive on the plane?  I mean if there's any one of us that it's inevitable will become some kinda superhero, it's gotta be her.  Saving lives has got to be like second nature to her.  I wish I ever felt so strongly about something in my life so as to cleary know what I wanted to do with my life as she does...  <br>  &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"But she's had some rough times, what with loosing her family.  Some might say she's better prepared to handle it as a firefighter, used to the idea of loosing friends and family.  But I think it makes it harder for her.  I mean, man, she lost her family and friends in a huge disaster she wasn't there for and she's suposed to be tough, so she can't talk about it.  I know if I was her, I'd feel like it was my fault I wasn't there and that had I been I coulda done something and even if I coulda saved just one it would have made a difference.  Can you imagine how heavy that kinda shit would be to carry around?"
** &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"I guess my attitude on Mandy's chanrged radically in the past year.  I first saw her as an idealized hero from the plane; a firefighting hero, rescuer of people who could do no wrong.  Then she killed that but and I saw her as human and vulnerable.  I thought I couldn't reconcile what she did and her reasons for it.  But it's just made my view of her more real and that's lead to a closer relationship between us than I haver would've had with her on the pedistal ser relationship then he would ever have had with her on the pedestal I first put her on.  I've loved watching her blossom into her own during our rescue work in Pakistan.  Of us all, she seems the most stable these days.
