It's wild that Inti has never explored the angle of involuntarily pairing Copen up with an adept, not even in the iX spinoff. It seems like such an obvious route to take his character; The wildly contrasting personalities coupled with being the only people on the entire planet that can genuinely and consistently piss Copen off seems like such a goldmine for character interactions. You know, intentionally stepping on his landmines, but also with enough snark and intellect to bite back on his horseshit.
It seems like something that would be water to Tai's mill, but I guess not since they've had every opportunity to do so and still didn't.
And no, Roro is not an adept. She doesn't have her own Septima.
