>and Loid agreeing to rely on Yor more.
Except in his thoughts, he thought the opposite. He lied to her both times, anon. Readers regularly give him more growth or credit than Axeman does, so these stunted moments of his are treated as greater steps than they actually are. Mole arc was simply the first time his feelings and mission fatally intersected for him, but none of it was actually resolved, only swept under the rug.

>Personally for me it was the end of the Bus arc where he comes off as so uncaring and flippant about Anya despite him apparently rushing to the scene after his mission.
This is the point where I realized it as well; he's not even close to the persona he puts on as Loid, but much colder and mission-minded. He's not totally without emotions, but without true watershed moments where Loid actively chooses to let his guard down and not unintentionally, his overall character is very stagnant.

>She alludes to having a secret identity to gauge Loid's reaction, but that will only create misunderstandings
I'm wondering how this might play out because Loid still hasn't given any indication as to what he's doing differently after his mission with Wheeler, if he's even changed anything at all. Feels like it might as well not have happened if it doesn't matter here.
