Action: use figure out the best way to build a de-escalating speech, that is, do an Empathy CaA that would provide insights to use with a subsequent Diplomacy (or similar) action.
Spending a recently-gained FP on Cool-Headed Insightful Type help with the insights, duh.

Remy Concorde
PILOT ASPECTS:
Self View:
Humanity's Successor
For good or ill, Remy acknowledges being designed as the next best thing after natural humans. Harder, Better, Faster, Smarter. And something that was built as an improvement is bound to eventually outcompete its predecessor. Not out of malice, but due to the nature of things. Not with fanfare and pride, but with a matter-of-fact shrug.
Sooner or later, a Gattaca of sorts would become the new norm, and Remy is the aloof herald of that era, neither celebrating the world to come, nor mourning the old world.
Positive Invocations:
- Getting ahead thanks to the bioengineered improvements over the baseline human.
Compels:
- Social complications relating to the reputation of being one of the first augmented humans, and also incidentally the first emancipated clone.
Social Type:
Cool-Headed Insightful Type
Positive Invocations:
- Keeping calm under pressure.
- Helping a group of people stay calm, resist panic &c.
- Coldly analysing a situation or person and getting useful, unbiased insights.
- Cognitive empathy;
Negative Invocations:
- Situations where display of affection would be highly appropriate (e.g. recovering someone else's Mental Consequences; a shoulder to cry on).
Trauma:
The Little Things From Alleged Allies
It's not the big things that are hurtful, especially not from enemies.
Being treated as a meat robot? Getting bothered by journalists and rubbernecks on the street? Being constantly burdened with sky-high expectations? That's just . . . normal and expected, especially from a superior or an enemy, and taken in stride.
But witnessing an act of petty spite among alleged friends? Seeing one alleged team-mate slightly prejudiced against another over things that have no correlation with merit? Getting caught in one of those webs of 'white lies' that tend to snowball? Those are the worst things in people.
Pilot Style:
Agility and Precision
Evasive and marksmanship-focused approaches to combat.
Dream:
A Step Beyond Understanding
"Knowledge is certainly tempting and intriguing. Science is fascinating. But you know what's even more intriguing? Correctly upon truths without having previously studied them in a rational manner. "
Positive Invocations:
- Rolls relating to lore/academics or theoretical knowledge, or for acquiring such through study.
- Rolls representing leaps of intuition or a priori reasoning, as distinct from empirical studies.
Compels:
- Being tempted by new and uncommon scientific knowledge.
- Something strange happening, or people reacting oddly, to the aforementioned intuitive leaps.
