You say “older” but they are about the same age as the MC.
Plus more RO’s will be added in the second and third books.

as @viper32153 said, they aren’t really “older” than the MC. the MC is in their early 30s (or maybe just 30) while Ortega is in their late 30s. Dr. Mortum’s age is more ambiguous like a lot of things about them. They’re most likely neither a Southerner or French.
Argent and Herald seem to be on the younger side though and they’ll be ROs for the next book.

mortum is the same age as the mc’s puppet if I recall. And the puppet appears to be in their twenties.

if i’m not mistaken, malin has been working on book 2 even before book 1 is released. either way, try not to ask questions like this. it’s against community guidelines and just pressures authors. it will done when it will be done.
for the second question, are you talking about the damocles? weird. done 4 playthroughs so far and i always have the option to use it. how high are your telepathy stats? maybe you need at least ~70 of either to use it?

Isn’t there 2 chances to leave something in her mind? First scene, and then if you agree to help Ortega,
when you ‘help’ Argent after psy attack?

Why does Ortega seem to be immune to the MCs telepathy?

They have epilepsy, for some reason due to that the MC can’t read them.

So, was binging on this game again when this song come on. And the more I thought about it, the more it seemed like an appropriate song for my MCs feelings towards Sidestep, Ortega and the good old days in general.

The game says something along the lines of Ortega, as with all other epileptics, is immune to telepathy. Something about the electricity in their brain preventing the MC from essentially accessing their thoughts.

Where can I find the point about querying the timeline for future works being against community guidelines? I haven’t found where that would be a problem.
I do appreciate the tip about the second part. I feel that may have been the issue

But since you’re curious, my current plan is to have a beta testing for book 2 ready for the end of 2018. The reason this one tool so long was that there was a year-long gap due to my workplace going under, moving, buying a house and getting a new job. So real life stuff. Things are calmer now.

Not going to lie, I genuinely appreciate the response. Thank you

Thank you. I see it now.
Oh, that sounds fantastic. It echoes what the protagonist says to Ortega at one point. That they will bring down the boss to the Rangers~
You could not be more correct. chuckles
It is possible to both love and hate someone at the same time. That is how I see him, as the protagonist. I adore him, but I want to destroy him as well. chuckles
chuckles Glad to know it can be done. I cannot wait for that playthrough! 
And whenever you are in need for beta testers, I would love to help with that. 
ALL HAIL LELOUCH! ALL HAIL LELOUCH! glad i’m not the only one that got that vibe.

@malinryden I think you’ll be pleased to know that Lady Argent’s triple pupils and the attached achievement have sent me down a rabbit hole of paranoid speculation. I’d put it down to some effect of the hero drug, but the fact that attention is directly called to it and there’s an achievement attached to seeing it says otherwise. Or this could just be an elaborate fakeout and I’m jumping at shadows.
Also Ortega looking “like a cat that just had its nose bopped” is just the most adorable mental image.

@malinryden Lol. Thank you for stopping me from calling myself Sidestep!! Or stealing and existing name!! I was the person who brought that up:

There is an option to name yourself side step you just need a really high daring I believe.
