Nice reference to the SAS

Thanks! I'm really happy someone picked up on this! Wanted to write a bit of a homage and a nice comparative way to show how serious these guys are. All the way down to the staircase grenade, eheh.
Three (so far) sides going in, then: SIB, the Elements, and Icarus Team. Though, while revelations about motivations can wait, the previous chapter did hit quite so, especially when I get the feeling that the Elements themselves feel either sidelines or (a bit) useless or despairing in the face of a darker, darker world. It'd be funny but also fitting, I'd imagine, for SIB to be this world's take on the Elements of Harmony... friendship forged through a seemingly eternal grit and grind, colored by smoke and alcohol and stress, among worse things.
Contrast the battered and bruised Cipher from a few chapters ago, along with his rather casual team, with ice-cold Icarus, though... setting them up as an unstoppable, maybe sadistic force is a good call if you're gonna throw them at the relatively soft SIB. But we'll see how they fare...
