Worried
I'm concerned that Risha may have just gone from "person" to "property" in the eyes of the Ashburnites. I wouldn't want them to get the idea that Risha is a valuable tool they just have to have for themselves, that they are willing to take by force.

It's possible
It was risky to reveal herself, but any sort of diplomacy was going to be difficult so long as one party is hostile to another. If that does happen, then at least she got them to show their true colors early.

we really need your help.”
wow, cool stuff!
The question is
What manner of help?

Sounds like there's a section
Sounds like there's a section of Ashburn that requires an AI to function properly, and it's been breaking down.
Gee, where do we know of a few hundred AI that are mashed together into a tiny space?
I'll get a life when it's proven and substantiated to be better than what I'm currently experiencing.
it's 101
not hundreds, 100 MARTIs with Avatars and 1 that is primarily in the main AI Core, still together they are Legion, and they are all MARTI.
101 MARTIs
Sounds like a Disney movie. Yes, if there is an issue in Ashburn that requires an AI watching over things the MARTIs are available. They would ask for a volunteer to do so though since the Angles really don't want to treat AIs as property or mere objects like the humans who created them.

Yea, letting them know Risha
Yea, letting them know Risha is an AI could be a mistake if they decide they just have to have her. It's like waving a jug of water in front of a person dying of thirst, rational thought goes out the window.
yeah but if she gets in their
yeah but if she gets in their system, after checking and clearing any digital nasties, just try stopping her
Possible mistake
Yeah, it might not have been the best call for Risha to reveal her true nature. But if she gets into their system and they aren't on the up and up, she could seriously fuck them up in a lot of ways, and not all of them obvious.

The easy comment is “wow you
The easy comment is “wow you are still on track for this to be awesome”. Instead I will say I like the newest characters, and the face off that happened on first sighting, so typical of people. The gradual growing acquaintance of the two groups, the suspicions, both subtle and obvious, all ring true to life. With the backstory from previous episodes as well as what was supplied by our new characters, the people of Ashburn have good cause to hate the “Humans” and be leary of Risha. I look forward to more of this.
Aw thanks
Trusting is hard especially in a world like this one and it made sense for them all to be suspicious of one another and I really wanted to show that, and how it might make any kind of future relationship difficult to forge going forward. The people of Ashburn do have good reason to be wary of strangers, especially humans, or those who look it. It they really want the help of our Angels though, there is going to have to try and hold back their ingrained mistrust.

Ashburnites
Ashburnians?
Ashburners?
*Shrug*
Anyway, given their paranoia about humans I don't think they would be good fit for the Angel Corps since the Angels are charged with the protection of all, not just the non-humans.
I would be very suspicious of the help they are looking for and don't commit to anything that might risk Risha.
Des seems to be acting
Des seems to be acting different than the others, perhaps she has a reason to be more suspicious than most
Desra
Yes, she does seem to be quite a bit more mistrusting than her companions, and there is a reason for this.

I'm going with Ashburnites.
I'm going with Ashburnites.
That's a very good point and there are people who look human as well as human sympathizers working with the Corps as well, and that could make things difficult.
Snow will have to navigate this situation cautiously and weigh the possible risks and gains.

Looks like another nation
It's just waiting to take in any refugees from the upcoming war. What exactly is hard light? I gather from context that it is some sort of force field, but it is not obvious.
Hardlight
in most media that uses the term "hardlight" its generally a force field/energy projection that you can walk on as if it were a solid object. this differs from other types of force fields that will either melt you or let certain objects pass through.
Yup
That's basically what hardlight is in this story.

also one of the more
also one of the more dangerous forms of energy weapons, if you only look at primary effects (exclude burning, radiation and electromagnetic affects) as a hardlight projectile can be like a bullet with an atomically sharp tip, with extreme effective hardness,
