With the kind of "intelligence" the Alignment has been showing to date, they will probably pick Pintos instead of Gremlins.

1. If neither of them use their title (Sonja doesn't, and I don't see Shannon using a noble title), that keeps the "Which one?" issue from happening. 2.Maybe, some Haven's daughter colonies had a noble system, and she just kept quiet about her heritage for her safety under the Committee of Public Unsafety. This is my headcanon, although, I know it almost certainly won't happen. If you want more info, PM me. I'd love to see Shannon and Sonja get married. They fit perfectly. |

And Shannon comes along as the tech analysis person as well as ops planning. She can do both jobs. |

OMG! What if Shannon and maybe even Sonja is actually descended from another lost Alpha line like Honor. And their quirky antisocial behavior is simply another side effect of the same genetic soup.

This makes complete sense, as the Merdayal[sic] mods could have been added later to Honor, but not the tech nerd duo. Aren't the traits of an Alpha Line - Brains - Somewhat antisocial Any others? |

I readily recall the Bardasano genotype with all of its problems which led to culling the previous two generations. The previous generations could have included Sonja and Shannon if they were part of the same genetic soup. That is all any man will ever need. A crazy woman who was made with screws loose sporting a variety of just as crazy tattoos. Make that a card-carrying sociopath with plenty of screws loose, a medley of weird tattoos and a sexual disorder. I wonder what the sexual disorder is all about. Do they kill their lovers like the black widow Spider?

If Shannon or Sonja were part of lost lines, then they could not be subject to a possible culling of any recent generation. Did you also remember that the Board was considering crossing the Bardasano line with the Detweiler line? From chapter 20 of Storm from the Shadows (slightly after the text you mentioned):

Of course neither of them can be culled. Neither of them are Mesans. But if they are descended from that line, then it is possible, maybe even likely, that they have some of the same genotype. And do consider that the quirks of a particular genotype may not manifest itself for generations. In-between those generations specific individuals of lines could have become lost.
