23
24The free Agent the game provides to [=TeeQueue=], who is assigned to the Control Team. After going mad and [[EpicFail attempting to break out One Sin, which never breaches]], [=TeeQueue=] decided to never use him again. However, he does make a return appearance as a plucky employee in the outside-canon [[Series/BetterCallSaul "Better Call Paul"]] mini-series [[spoiler:several loops ago when Abel was the manager]], where theoretical scenarios are posited for WhatIf you mess up work on certain Abnormalities, as well as covering Abnormalities that don't show up in the main playthrough.
25
26[[spoiler:He is the 26th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Hod, just in time for the third Realization Battle in the Floor of Literature.]]
27
28!! Tropes:
29* BookEnds: [[spoiler:Episode 1 of "Better Call Paul" covered Laetitia. Her Suppression in the Library is when he finally comes back.]]
30* ButtMonkey: In his own mini-series. [[spoiler:And it turns out they're all canon, just way before X's tenure. During Abel's, in fact]]. [[spoiler:And that's not going to change even as a Librarian]].
31* EpicFail: He screws up his first work on One Sin, as well as his second. On the third time, he panics and tries to free One Sin, who is immobile. And without any other Agents available at the time to [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan bring him back to his senses]], Angela tells X to return to the Day 1 Memory Repository and try again.
32* LivingLegend: [[spoiler:Medea recognizes Paul as a legend, having seen all the training videos he and Hod made, outside of the redacted classified parts. Switch even calls him by this trope, though would've appreciated being told it was for dying all the time before they engaged Angela in battle]].
33* MaskOfSanity: [[spoiler:Thanks to Roland's words and Black Swan's aid, Paul returns to his senses enough to fight under the pretense of being in a shoot for "Better Call Paul "]].
34* NotSoSimilar: At the start of [[spoiler:Hod's Floor Realization, Angela as Black Swan tries to break Paul mentally by pointing out their similarities. Thanks to Roland, he recovers and rebuffs her]].
35--> '''Elle Tee:''' Finally able to focus on the battle?
36--> '''Paul:''' If I think of it as another shoot, this isn't so bad at all!
37--> [[spoiler:'''Black Swan!Angela:''']] But you and I… we're alike. Trapped. Too weak to avoid our fates… It was always out of our hands. How can you ''hope?!''
38--> '''Paul:''' True! Thankfully, I balled all that trauma up and put it away where noooobody can see it! And heavens to betsy, I'm gonna' ''use'' it!
39--> '''Switch:''' Not sure if that counts as 'hope,' exactly…
40* SanitySlippage: At the last episode of BCP, after a triple-maximized dose of Enkephalin upon discovering that plenty versions of him are used for the show, and gets worse as the episode reaches its end. [[spoiler:No wonder he snapped so easily on X's Day 1.]] [[spoiler:And he's still not any better during Hod's Floor Realization]].
41* SkintoneSclerae: [[spoiler:As revealed without the PerceptionFilter when he comes back as a Library Assistant.]]
42* ThrowTheDogABone: After spending the first Day in the first game as a failure, and as a complete loser in his mini-series, [[spoiler:he joins the main cast in the second game, and ''Medea'' even calls him a legend.]]
43* WeHardlyKnewYe: After the above, He's benched for the rest of the first game, though he makes a return in the "Better Call Paul" mini-series. In-story, he's apparently iced just like that employee heard in Malkuth's debut. [[spoiler:He does make a proper return in ''Ruina'', though, much to the thread's joy.]]
44* Doesn't really want to think for himself and is thankful that the manager X is so smart and cool to do it for him.

60--> ''"Hellooooo, cutie~!"''
61
62An Agent recruited on Day 1 after Paul's failure, and is assigned to the Control Team. She transferred to the Information Team on Day 6, the Training Team on Day 11, the Safety Team on Day 16, back to the Training Team on Day 19, the Central Command Team on Day 21, the Welfare Team on Day 27, the Disciplinary Team on Day 31, and finally to the Extraction Team on Day 36 on Binah's orders, where she becomes its Department Captain (until she's moved to Safety on Day 49 to [[spoiler:"babysit" [=WhiteNight=]]] and to Training on Day 50 for the same reason). Has a fascination for all the Abnormalities and calls them "cuties". Used to live in the Backstreets.\
63\
64She's the 28th Assistant Librarian to be awakened alongside her Patron Librarian Binah. [[spoiler:She's also the 29th and the 30th Assistant Librarian as a result of being stored in the same book as Punishing Bird, Judgment Bird, and Big Bird, and when their book split apart into three, so did she]].
65
66!! Tropes:
67* BerserkButton: ''Never'' do work on an Abnormality before Mizu. On Day 26, Twee managed to get away with a warning, but on [[spoiler:the second]] Day 43, Boksi wasn't so fortunate (either with the warning or the beating-up) (OH GOD MY EVERYTHING) and got pummeled so bad at Central that there was a big hole in the Record Department's ceiling afterward.
68** Being a Sweeper in general, [[spoiler:Given they took her loved ones away prior to her joining the company]]. In fact, [[spoiler:during the L Corp Civil War, she would still go after Sweepers even as an Apostle of [=WhiteNight=], which is not possible in-game]].
69* BewareTheSillyOnes: Despite her eagerness, she's also a menace in Suppression works.
70* BigNo: On the start of Day 26, when she realizes Twee went to work on the new Abnormality (The Little Prince) before her.
71* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Due to [[spoiler:having beholden the Bucket]], Mizu isn't exactly the most sane of people. [[spoiler:She even eagerly complies with Talow's request to shoot him in the head at the end of the first run of Day 17]]. And when she says she's having words with someone's face like she promised, she beat up Boksi for it, when it was ''Twee'' she gave the warning to (and Boksi was not within earshot of that).
72* EveryoneHasStandards: Sweepers are the ''only'' abnormalities that Mizu '''doesn't''' consider "cute" by any measure. In fact, [=Zeta21=] once told Fat Sam a story about what Mizu'll do to these things: bad enough to make [CENSORED] look like Laetitia.
73** She also doesn't care for Tool Abnormalities, and finds the Shelter from the 27th of March boring. And her short attention span and desire to work other "cuties" proves beneficial after X and Chesed discover the Shelter's… side effect.
74* HumanoidAbomination: Might be this, to an extent greater than that of other Agents. Enough that Gebura really has a hard time tolerating her presence as if she was an Abnormality herself. [[spoiler:Binah essentially confirms this to X. Several Managers before the current X, there was once an employee who survived long enough to transfer to Extraction because she wished to know everything about them, and was utterly fascinated by them. Such attitudes usually spell doom before long, and she eventually gazed into the Well. Her mind shattered, but she was somehow functional despite that, her mental corruption level stuck at 79%. But even after dying, each time she's restored, her mind started degrading to the point where she's become a creature indistinguishable from one of the Abnormalities themselves, an expression of some primal need of the Well in a way distinct from the Abnormalities]].
75* IconicItem: Ever since getting an E.G.O. Gift from Today's Shy Look (O-01-92), she's kept it on ever since (and it smells like jerky) and it's since become associated with her to the point her actual face is mostly forgotten. [[spoiler:And it carried over as an Assistant Librarian, at least for her Just Mizu self]].
76* LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler:Punished Mizu thinks their situation is what they deserved for turning on their comrades (not that they actually had a choice since they were in Binah's department)]].
77* LiteralSplitPersonality: [[spoiler:Upon being awakened as an Assistant Librarian, she was split into Just Mizu, Huge Mizu. and Punished Mizu as a result of the Abnormalit(y/ies) that took her in, and when it split into three, so did she. From their behaviors, Just Mizu is the one from the start, Huge Mizu is amnesiac/Mizu As First Recruited, and Punished Mizu is one with all the memories of all the loops (kinda like Talow) and actually feels guilty for what she's done]].
78* MeaningfulName: Mizu means "water" in Japanese. [[spoiler:And she has looked into the Well, making her what she is now]] [[spoiler:And like water, she now exists in three states as Assistant Librarians]].
79* NeverMyFault: [[spoiler:Just]] Mizu feels no guilt for her actions and doesn't consider herself responsible for them, pinning the blame on her boss Binah. [[spoiler:This is inverted for Punished Mizu.]]
80* NightmareFetishist: Calls all the Abnormalities "cuties" and is always fascinated with them.
81* RippleEffectProofMemory: [[spoiler:Probably has a case of this, though not to Talow's extent, and most likely not as a result of Hokma]].
82* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: On occasion, which adds to her eccentricities.
83* Always wants to be the first Agent to greet a new Abnormality, to the point of getting really angry if she finds out she wasn't the first.
84* Mizu almost ends up getting herself "resigned" early by Malkuth when she talks about being cursed and the darkness torturing her soul at the end of Day 4. She manages to save herself by excusing her words as an example for the other employees of things to look out for.
85* Due to the nature of E.G.O. Weapons, Mizu's a natural Supressor because she's always going with the flow .
86* Mizu decides to start a betting pool on which Clerks will or will not make it through the day (Talow's wager's on [=Alpha10=]'s survival, he loses that bet during an Amber Dawn Ordeal).
87* Mizu has been raiding Netzach's stash of Enkephalin, going through half of it in one night, then asking for more next morning. X is amazed she's still breathing.
88* ParentalAbandonment: [[spoiler:Mizu's loved ones were swept away in the Night of the Backstreets, taken/slain as she hid. This probably explains her hatred for Sweepers.]]
89* RedBaron: After annoying Netzach on Day 18 with all sorts of suggestions for titles, he settles with "[[VisualNovel/DokiDokiLiteratureClub Just Mizu]]". She loves it.
90* TranquilFury: In contrast to her BigNo just moments ago, she's perfectly calm when confronting Twee afterward about working on the Abnormality first as she threatens to basically punch her in the face if she ever, ''ever'' steals Mizu's spot again. She also expresses this just before pummeling Boksi for working on the Queen of Hatred before her.
91* WorthIt: [[spoiler:In contrast to Punished Mizu's thoughts on being split apart, Just Mizu thinks being able to hug Big Bird for as long as they were able to was worth it all]].
92* Her reason for always looking at the "cuties" is because they might be the only thing tougher than her.
93* During the [[spoiler:L Corp Civil War, Mizu split her time between fighting the other employees (given she's under Binah's control) and purging Sweepers, usually the latter to the point of ignoring other battles. She apparently died at the same time as Tenebrais, Elle Tee, Switch, "and the others".]]

110--> ''"I hope this timeline finally takes."''
111
112An Agent recruited on Day 1 after Paul's failure, and is assigned to the Control Team. He transferred to the Information Team on Day 6, the Training Team on Day 11, the Information Team on Day 20, the Central Command Team on Day 21, the Safety Team on Day 25 during Malkuth's Core Suppression, the Welfare Team on Day 26, the Training Team on Day 28 during Netzach's Core Suppression, to the Welfare Team on Day 31, back to Control on Day 36, and becomes the Department Captain on the Records Team on Day 37, staying there throughout (barring one temporary move to Central Command again on Day 44 during [[spoiler:the second attempt of]] Binah's Core Suppression) until his death on Day 49 [[spoiler:using the Backwards Clock]]. Seems to know more about the Corporation than most due to [[spoiler:being able to snap back across timelines courtesy of serving under Hokma]].\
113\
114He's the 33rd Assistant Librarian to be awakened, alongside Morgan and his Patron Librarian Hokma. Morgan's certainly surprised to see him here after [[spoiler:he used the Backwards Clock]]. And without [[spoiler:the 10,000 years worth of loops, he's now as clueless as to the current goings-on as everyone else]].
115
116!! Tropes:
117* BlessedWithSuck: Finds his [[spoiler:temporal privilege]] as this, [[spoiler:as much as Hokma insists it's a gift]].
118* DeathSeeker: Downplayed, but he is tired enough of [[spoiler:all the loops he's been forced to live through]] to welcome it. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, Angela's plot ruined that and he's back again, though Hokma remarks that he isn't angrier about it. Talow chalks it up to having spent thirty years in the Outskirts making one nostalgic for even just a shit job with some decent food.]]
119--> '''Talow:''' Hey! Manager!
120--> '''X:''' What's up?
121--> '''Talow:''' I'm getting ''really'' tired of [[spoiler:waking up every time I die]]. No matter what it takes, ''finish'' this. If I [[spoiler:wake up again in this crapsack facility, ''I'm'' going to punch you!]]
122--> '''X:''' …Got it.
123* TheDogBitesBack: Delivers these in spades during Hokma's Core Suppression.
124* DrivenToSuicide: Seemingly the case on [[spoiler:the first]] Day 17, [[spoiler:when he has Mizu shoot him]]. Turns out [[spoiler:this is just to return him to the new timeline the Management is in now]].
125* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: He knocks Tenebrais out of her [=KoD=]-induced Boksi-murderboner this way ''and'' by explaining that the Knight's preference for Boksi is because she's about protecting the weak. Tenebrais realizes that this means she's stronger than him and is knocked out of her funk.
126* HeroicSacrifice: Uses the Backwards Clock on Day 49 to counter the effects of An Arbiter's Phase 2 effect.
127* HigherUnderstandingThroughDrugs: When Medea asks how Talow knew what the Scarecrow was going to do, he excuses that he saw it on an Enkephalin high. Medea doesn't believe him, but Mizu does. [[spoiler:This is probably false]].
128* HypercompetentSidekick: Not that Hokma is incompetent at anything, but his obsession with X/A and care for nothing else means that Talow is actually the one giving orders to his Department and doing ''all'' of both of their work. And he makes his resentment shown during his Core Suppression.
129* NoodleIncident: Apparently, [[spoiler:assuming it's not actually from a previous time loop]], Talow received horns before Rudolta's E.G.O. Gift back at the Outskirts.
130* ResurrectionSickness: Well, it's more as a result of [[spoiler:snapping back across timelines after dying or killing himself]], but he claims it hurts. Just because he [[spoiler:snaps back]] doesn't mean he just forgets all the stuff that happens.
131* RippleEffectProofMemory: Is revealed to have this on [[spoiler:the first]] Day 17 after [[spoiler:X resets the day, leaving the first timeline behind]]. It's then later revealed that [[spoiler:this is courtesy of being a monitor to observe the Manager under Hokma's orders]]. [[spoiler:After so many loops and resets, Talow is ''tired'' of this, and he wants out of the facility]].
132* Should it come down to it, Talow will take command.
133* [[spoiler:[[https://lparchive.org/Lobotomy-Corporation/Update%2074/ Talow's secret meeting with Hokma]]]]
134* After the whole Q&A sessions foisted upon him like (and thankfully mitigated by Morgan), he realizes just what it;s like to be Bishop.
135* After [[spoiler:he used the Backwards Clock]], Talow ended up with nobody on the comms, and the machine dark again. Since he figured he was dead anyways, he decided to go out with a bang, went for the Manager's room, and try to bury the entire site. Unfortunately, he ran into An Arbiter on the way down, and it got to him. As he was losing consciousness, he felt something go up. Next thing he knew, he was in the outskirts, with a monster gnawing on his arm. Still, thanks to the EGO gear he still had, he was able to get by. Talow wandered around, raiding any ruins he found for equipment he needed to keep them maintained, wandering for three decades trying to get back to the City trusting no one since that was basically suicide, giving anyone following him one warning before disposing of them. He never actually made it back, but he got close.
136* After living on scraps and monsters for so long that he figured he must have become one himself, Talow managed to eventually catch sight of the outer walls of the place. Naturally, he dropped everything to see if he could get back in. But then he heard a voice telling him that he wasn't doing any good sticking around there, then stabbed him through the back and out of his chest, and he was dead shortly after that. That wasn't dramatic, it just sucked.

151--> ''"Orders from the top, everyone!"''
152
153An Agent recruited on Day 2, assigned to the Control Team before eventually becoming its Department Captain and staying there throughout. He was a Grade 7 Fixer before he came to Lobotomy Corporation to find traces of his father, who was well known for his skills at investigation work, and disappeared while looking into the company. May be the closest thing to a protagonist in [=TeeQueue's LPs=].\
154\
155He is the 2nd Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Malkuth.
156
157!! Tropes:
158* The first thing Bishop says on is first day is verifying the location of all the cameras. He may have hacked them on Day 3, and confirms that on Day 15 when he hush-hush talks with the Manager.
159* Portrays himself as wanting to be a showoff and pulling off BigDamnHeroes moments.
160* Bishop's dad has always taught him to trust his instincts. His mother was also made into a pie.
161* RealMenWearPink: Is given the "In The Name of Love and Hate" E.G.O. Suit (and Weapon).
162* InterspeciesRomance: Bishop, a (slightly abnormal by now) human has a crush on AI/"boxbot" Malkuth. Averted in ''Ruina'' once both are humans made of Light now.
163* MeaningfulName: According to Talow.
164--> "You know… I always thought it was funny that your name was Bishop. See, Bishops move on diagonals, dashing through positions at an angle when charging straight through's impossible. They're sharp. Reliable. But if they don't pay attention, they can get their escape routes cut off by the movements of the other pieces around them. Then… just like that, they're helpless."
165* NumberTwo: For Malkuth, starting at Day 13, and made official after Malkuth's Core Suppression. He's also this secretly to X.
166* At the beginning of Day 14, Bishop tells X that he's hacked into the computer servers and installed custom programs into it to monitor network activity (without Manager permission). He caught an unauthorized program running in the system that circumvents the company's usual checks, and apparently X [[spoiler:or perhaps A prior to amnesia]] installed it.
167* On Day 14, upon finding himself alone (Tenebrais and Credentia off in other departments), he thinks X is about to have him executed, but he doesn't. Bishop wonders how the death rate has been so much lower than under every other manager, and X say he just lets the agents do their own thing for the most part, only handling Abnormality pocks and training regimens.
168* NotQuiteDead: On Day 35, upon outing Bishop as a Fixer [[spoiler:who has gotten a Clerk killed in the midst of his investigation]], X executes him. [[spoiler:Turns out Bishop used a robotic BodyDouble left behind from one of Chesed's projects to make substitutes to work on Abnormalities in place of humans before Angela shut that down, having acquired it from storage with Malkuth's position, set it up at the start of the day with some pre-programmed lines and with enough cosmetics so that the Manager's Cognition Filter would register the double as Bishop himself. As for Bishop himself, he was in hiding for the rest of the day before deciding to confront X at the end of it]].
169* ShaggyDogStory: At least in this game, Bishop's search for his father ends in failure, but he's not giving up, [[spoiler:even if the trail would've gotten cold how many milennia ago]].
170* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Despite his admiration for Malkuth, Bishop denies it being romantic when inquired on, even when it did involve giving her flowers a couple of times.
171* SpottingTheThread: At the start of Day 21, Bishop corners Talow and manages to out him as being far more knowledgeable than he should be.
172* At the start of Day 33, Bishop asks Malkuth's permission to check storage for stuff to throw out or put to use. She allows it, as long as he signs the requisition forms and stays away from the Sephirot replacement parts.
173* X discovers records of one Engineering specialist [=Gamma34=] on the day [=Delta3=] died. "Every other day, our clerks number from 1 to whatever the highest number there are is. We didn't see 34 again until we were over halfway through the upper layer. So, this is a fake, right? It's got to be." X suggests Bishop may have faked a log after the fact.
174* At the start of Day 35, Bishop offers his gear to Malkuth while he goes off on a personal mission: [[spoiler:Ambush X for trying to kill him and wanting him to come back to his senses]].
175* [[https://lparchive.org/Lobotomy-Corporation/Update%2079/ Bishop's Deduction To Who Was Going To Kill Him]]
176* [[spoiler:Ayin]] makes it a point not to tell Bishop that [[spoiler:neither he nor X]] will be able to leave by the end of it all, since he would've gotten obsessed with trying to find a way to fix it.
177* From Roland's perspective, Bishop is just in his [=20s=], and finds it impressive that he was a Grade 7 Fixer by that point. Dimi implies that Bishop could not have become a Grade 7 Fixer at his age without money.
178* Is a gun nerd (E.G.O. Weapons don't count as they're [[ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve conceptual imprints of a gun that worked because the maker thought of it as a gun]].)
179* Wants to settle a score with Philip, either because he's envious, or because he wants Dimi to stop making fun of him. In the Reception against Wedge Office, he scored three kills (all of higher Grades, [[AllThereInTheManual according to the artbook]]), but none of them Philip; (Dimi "took" that one, except he fled ''again'').

219
220An Agent recruited on Day 6, assigned to the Control Team. He transferred to the Information Team on Day 11, then to the Safety Team on Day 14 before becoming its Department Captain and staying there throughout. Has a fascination for smiles and wants to make sure everyone can make them, even if he has to beat them in the face for it to happen (though that's thankfully reserved for enemies). Given his life in the Backstreets at District 23 and his 5-year history in… [[ImAHumanitarian food services]], it's helped him through before be signed in on Lobotomy Corporation.\
221\
222He is the 6th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Netzach.
223
224!! Tropes:
225* TheAntiNihilist: As a contrast to Netzach's nihilism. And his talk with Netzach during his Core Suppression is what helps the Sephirah move forward once more.
226* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: And not just due to the PerceptionFilter. He's this too outside that filter.
227* HiddenDepths: As X discovers during Netzach's Core Suppression, there is more to Mr. Black than just a cackling madman.
228* LaughingMad: On occasion, and once when Tylana asked him why he's caught up on smiling. And as an Assistant Librarian, he starts doing this more often in battle.
229* NoodleIncident: Apparently, in a time loop prior to X's run, Mr. Black had some… things grow out of his face, and Netzach was uncomfortable with it. It's not known if he was talking about the [CENSORED] E.G.O. Gift or something else.
230* NotSoSimilar: Mr. Black denies being anything like Oswald of the 8 o'Clock Circus when Mr. Blond bemoans this (also, Black's an only child, so they're not SeparatedAtBirth or anything). Oswald bases his worth on making others smile, while Mr. Black is only concerned with smiling for himself.
231--> '''Mr. Blond:''' That doesn't make any sense.
232--> '''Mr. Black:''' It makes perfect sense! If you base your self-worth on making someone else smile through your tomfoolery, then eventually you're going to wind up disappointed! Instead, I smile first and always, and allow the mood to infect my fellow man! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
233--> '''Carlos Safety:''' So it's like… Lead people, don't force them?
234--> '''Mr. Black:''' Precisely! See? He gets it!
235--> '''Mr. Blond:''' Well, I don't.
236--> '''Mr. Black:''' To put it another way… You never smile! The mere presence of a person like you would render a clown like that unable to function! He'd have a honking terrible time! HAHAHAHAHA!
237* PerpetualSmiler: He's dedicated to this lifestyle and making sure everyone around him can do the same.
238* TheRival: Becomes one to Mizu on Day 36 as they work on the Mountain of Smiling Bodies.
239* Believes there's no problem you can't make better by laughing!
240* A masochist, finding despair and traumas ''appealing''.
241* Prefers melee weapons to best carve smiles into the enemy's flesh.
242* During Netzach's Core Suppression, Mr. Black says he had once been on Enkephalin but had stopped weeks ago.
243* In his time at the Backstreets, he's no stranger to the deaths of people he knows, and apparently practiced (stopped feeling anything the third/fourth time he's gutted someone) before going out of that business.
244* Despite his obsession with smiling, he cares enough for L Corp to blossom, because he wouldn't get paid if everyone died.
245* Strength is not what matters to keep smiling; perseverance is what counts, and he has it in spades.
246* Apparently, getting buried in a bag of rice for 12 hours helps for Mr. Black and suggests that for Netzach. [[https://lparchive.org/Lobotomy-Corporation/Update%2062/ And that's exactly what happens]].
247* Working with [CENSORED] brought back memories of his old days outside, back when he did harvesting work on the side, seeing things most people would shy away from.
248* Mr. Black has had run-ins with the Zwei Association prior to L Corp, seeing them get in the way of his search for ingredients several times.
249* While Suppressing Porccubus in the Library, he's unaffected by its effects since he's ''already'' smiling all the time.
250* %% On the one hand, we have Gebura who fought against the horrors of District 23 and came out hating everything about it and a tough as nail badass. On the other hand, we have Mr. Black who embraced the madness and came out a…well…not sure if there are any words to describe him in one sentence.
251* Mr. Black calls the Smiling Faces fakers, as their smiles are only mask-deep, and he doesn't believe using narcotics to smile can hold up to a true sincere one. But for Wang, Jin, and MI, he can feel true smiles behind ''their'' masks.
252* How he regards E.G.O. and Distortions: "The difference is basically academic! One's a smile you wear on your self, and the other's a smile that becomes your whole being! Either way, it's smiles all the way down!"

269An Agent recruited on Day 6, assigned to the Control Team.

Is level-headed and flexible enough to deal with most situations, and this is in spite of being apparently spliced with a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Psyduck]] before she joined the company, giving her constant headaches.\

271She's the 15th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, alongside Omni and her Patron Librarian Tiphereth.
272
273!! Tropes:
274* First few days as Mr. Black's minder.
275* Is Gifted a Today's Shy Look mask just like Mizu's on Day 19.
276* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: During Day 38, X notices Tylana is actually yellow (not seen through the Cognition Filter), which she explains is a result of being bilked into a phony body modification scheme where she would be spliced with [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} some kind of waterfowl]] [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Psyduck_(Pokémon) with a higher-than-normal amount of brain activity]]. Instead of huge psychic powers, she just got a bunch of really tiny feathers and a constant headache.
277** During said Core Suppression, in the middle of it, X temporarily gives her command of his controls while he talks to Tiphereth. She eventually backs out after seeing blood on the monitor, a smiley face on it ([[CallBack drawn by Mr. Black during Netzach's Core Suppression]]), she can't really see anyone, and she's been Executing Clerks because they keep getting into trouble.
278* ComfortFood: At the end of Day 38, Tylana treats herself with a bento box with salad, made specifically for the aftermath of Tiphereth's Core Suppression in mind and seeing how X handles her. And during her chat with Evil Kit [[spoiler:about his Curse]], he eats it all, inconveniencing her greatly.
279* ShipTease: With Evil Kit.

295She is the 4th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Hod.
296
297!! Tropes:
298* BrutalHonesty: Has taken a level of this after becoming an Assistant Librarian.
299* BewareTheNiceOnes: In contrast to the likes of Mizu and Tenebrais, Medea is a sociable lady. That said, she's still capable in Suppressions and is the Training Team's Captain for a good reason, manning the Department on her own while the newbies get the hang of things. And Talow still thinks she's the most terrifying thing in this facility, even more than Mizu.
300* Medea plans to buy W corp's travel package if she gets her vacation time to check out a really good sandwich shop. It's ''not'' on District 23, by the way; she can't stomach that.
301* "Get out of my way, Crimson Noon! I'm here to work with the cyootie-yootie patootiepie! (Ppodae)"
302* Medea still doesn't trust X, not after what she had to witness him do during Hod's Core Suppression.
303* RageBreakingPoint: Upon being awakened as an Assistant Librarian, she immediately starts ranting against Angela for [[spoiler:ruining A's Seed of Light plan, just as it was so close to completion]]. As usual, Angela, brushes it off before leaving.
304* Is dedicated to being Hod's protector.
305* Ever since becoming an Assistant Librarian, Medea has come to see the Abnormalities as friends, seeing them as just a lost child seeking understanding.
306* Sometime after Kaori's breakdown, during the first Reception of the Blue Reverbation, T. Hinman brings Kaori's book over to Medea for therapy. But it will have to wait as Hod's floor is on call for Reception. She reminds T. Hinman ''to not pour Enkephalin'' on Kaori's book.

376He is the 39th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Chesed.
377
378!! Tropes:
379* MySignificanceSenseIsTingling: Seyser's floating ponytail serves as this. But given this is Lobotomy Corporation, where danger is around every corner, it's not as reliable as he hopes it to be as it goes off non-stop as soon as he returns to duty. Medea assures that's natural since everybody is terrified that each day could be their last, so the most they can do is try and get through it without incident.
380** However, after being awakened as an Assistant Librarian, it no longer seems to work. Chesed realizes and explains that Seyser's hair actually senses ''possibility of dying'', and because all Librarians are revived after Receptions... That said, Twee says if it actually ever ''does'' shake again, it will mean everyone's in actual danger.
381* ShoutOut: His name is one to [[Film/TheUsualSuspects Keyser Söze]].
382* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Doesn't believe Abnormalities have emotions since they aren't people. Medea disagrees and puts that into question, since they do come from the human consciousness.

410* EyesAlwaysShut: She apparently explains why during the party on Day 21, but we only hear the tail end of it, and that she can navigate just fine with her E.G.O. Suit, though it doesn't seem to be something anyone can do as proven when Tenebrais failed to. That said, she does open her eyes while under Big Bird's hypnosis.
411* On [[spoiler:the second Day 17]] when Punishing Bird breaches during an Amber Dawn, she takes over for Talow, and even asks the bird for a "massage" on her shoulder from the Worker Bee breakout earlier. And when it breaches again, she asks if it considered becoming a masseuse.

Comes from a Nest and holds himself superior to all the other Agents.\
431\
432He is the 37th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Tiphereth, just in time for her Floor Realization. And his time dead/as a book gave him plenty of time to think. He still holds himself high, but is less of a jerk than usual.
433
434!! Tropes:
435* AddedAlliterativeAppeal: During Day 26, he says "Now that that (Fire)bird's been basically beaten back, Boksi's breaktime's bound to be a blast." Credentia applauds him, while Tenebrais wonders how long he spent on that sentence instead of literally anything useful.
436* Once worked in an Organization before joining L Corp.
437* HeroicBSOD: Suffers major breakdown on Day 38 during Tiphereth's Core Suppression when he hears from X that Tiphereth comes from the '''''Outskirts'''''. Being someone who prides himself from being from a '''Nest''', discovering that his superior is from a much lower social standing than he has that sort of effect.
438* HumblePie: Gets a full tin of it thrown into his face upon being told offhand by X that Tiphereth comes from the '''''Outskirts'''''. After that, [=Zeta21=] tells Tenebrais that he's been going around apologizing. [[WeWantOurJerkBack The two think it's a result of Abnormality possession]], and when he comes over to apologize to Tenebrais, she smacks him down on the floor so hard to form a crater before then taking him to Safety to be patched up. And then she proceeded to beat up the other captains just in case before Tiphereth A told her to cut it out and Netzach confirmed that there was no Abnormality affecting Boksi.
439* InSeriesNickname: Is called "mosshead" by Tenebrais, given his light green hair.
440* NotSoDifferentRemark: Reaches out to [[spoiler:Roland during Tiphereth's Floor Realization]] as he tries to reach out to him that there's still hope while they're still alive. Both have lost people important to them [[spoiler:(his wife for Roland, his father for Boksi)]], but there's no way Boksi's loss was pointless, so surely [[spoiler:the one Roland failed to protect]] must live on through him as well.
441
442* VitriolicBestBuds: With Tenebrais, as time goes on.
443* After once saying Tenebrais reeks of being from the Backstreets, after finding rampant worker bees going after him specifically and Tenebrais implying that's Backstreets stench, he asks if it's bottled.
444* Boksi's father died in the Smoke War, and he used to quote "where there's life, there's hope".
445* Boksi's father was a member of a Syndicate who managed to work his way into the Nest, where he met his mother. He said that as long as he had life, there was always hope for more-a good education for Boksi, the money to never have to worry about living in the Backstreets again. But… then the war. And the Wing they were living in fell. He drew his blade again, fought to protect his family…
446** He was born and educated in the Nest, to be the best of the best-the cream of the crop. They're not supposed to be able to fail. But… it all crumbled so suddenly, and the best he could do to support himself and his mother was to find a job in Lobotomy Corporation, an off-brand Wing that employed anyone from the Outskirts to the Nest and anywhere in between. Boksi had thought his father's words was just from him being hopelessly optimistic, but perhaps what he meant is that anyone can become something, so long as they're still breathing.

483* AccidentalHero: Saved one Clerk from death by following X's orders to swing a hammer on her way out from Forsaken Murderer's cell, killing a The Perfect Food worm while doing so. She genuinely brushes off the thanks, but the Clerk interprets it as [[ThinkNothingOfIt playing it off as no big deal]], and a fan club in her name was made.
484* BloodKnight: Loves to do Suppression work, and is bored whenever there isn't any of that to do. It all began back in the Backstreets when Rats attempted to tear her apart for scraps. She retaliated '''hard''', and she felt alive. Since then, she's been after that feeling since then; where she's risking everything in a fight against someone else.
485* CutenessProximity: Had a soft spot for wolves, especially the Big And Will Be Bad Wolf—despite holding exception to the similarly cute but deadly Punishing Bird—and she finds it cry when its belly was full kind of great. That goes straight out the window during his Suppression once he swallows up her sister, though it probably "helps" that she's borrowing power from the Red Riding Hooded Mercenary, who HAS a grudge with the Wolf.
486* DieOrFly: Gebura judges her as the type who learns best by being shoved off a cliff and being told to fly.
487* DrivenToMadness: Tenebrais goes nuts after failing a Work with the Knight of Despair and she tries to go after Boksi as a result, killing a fan Clerk along the way even when she wants to join in. Allegedly, this is because the Knight preferred Boksi over her.
488* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Talow knocks her out of her [=KoD=]-induced Boksi-murderboner this way ''and'' by explaining that the Knight's preference for Boksi is because the Knight's about protecting the weak. Tenebrais realizes that this means she's stronger than the Nest-born and is knocked out of her funk. Still, this has subjected her to being assigned as Punishing Bird's pecking post for a while when he breaches.
489* HiddenDepths: Actually likes wolves and considers them badass. The only reasons she said otherwise during the Suppression of the Red Hooded Mercenary because in her words, "When a mentally unstable freak is standing behind you with a shotgun, you say what'll keep you on her good side."
490* HiddenHeartOfGold: What the Clerks interpret her actions in battle as. Whether or not that's actually true is yet to be seen.
491* NotSoDifferentRemark: During Gebura's Floor Realization, Tenebrais ends up resonating with [[spoiler:Roland in his Cobalt Scar form]], but BICEPS interrupts and snaps her out of the conversation.
492* TheRival: Becomes one to ''Gebura'', proving her worth not only through swiftly suppressing Punishing Bird (enough for it to return to its cell) by her lonesome, but [[spoiler:engaging her head-on during Gebura's Core Suppression]].
493** She also gets one with the Red Riding Hooded Mercenary in the sequel during her "Suppression"
494* SiblingYinYang: With Credentia.
495%% * SurvivorsGuilt:
496* WhenSheSmiles: [[https://lpix.org/3910202/80-22.png Like any Agent who receives the Plague Doctor's blessing]].
497* Managed to get herself the Knight of Despair's gift by grabbing a bottle of tears while she was doing Attachment work before, and using "an old Backstreets trick" to tattoo the tear on her face with it. As always, a Clerk finds this amazing (Medea finds it dangerous).
498* Back when she was in the Backstreets, Tenebrais was like everyone else, thinking in terms of pluses and minuses and trying to keep their bank accounts afloat. That all changed when some Rats decided they wanted to tear her apart. She snapped, started fighting, and she felt ''great'' doing that.
499* Apparently, [[https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3920800&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=43#post507735930 Birds hate Tenebrais because]] [[spoiler:she shook one in its cage when she was nine]].
500* Last night before Day 30, Tenebrais aopproached X's office with a demand to become the Disciplinary Department's Captain, and backhanded a wall to prove her point.
501* During Day 50, Tenebrais is troubled with her feeling of clarity even when she's hearing clerks dying outside, not to mention her presumed grief over Credentia's death. Bishop suggests picking up a hobby, and she decides to play Moonlight Sonata on La Luna's piano to mourn Sorcrane, Boksi, Credentia, and the others who've died on Day 49.
502* During the Library Reception for the Mountain of Smiling Bodies, she considers the [=LobCorp=] hallway they're fighting in as home.

She transferred to the Control Team on Day 11, to the Safety Team on Day 14, to the Information Team on Day 17, back to Safety on Day 18, back to Information on Day 21, back to Safety again on Day 24, and the Welfare Team on Day 26 as its Department Captain, staying there throughout. She's from a Nest, plays tabletop games from time to time to forget about bad days at school, and always looks on the bright side even when beating-ups are imminent. She comes from a Nest, her hobby is occult research, and wants to prove that magic is real.
519
520She's the 21st Assistant Librarian to be awakened, alongside Sweet Pea and her Patron Librarian Chesed.
521
522!! Tropes:
523* Twee thinks its cool to have an escort meant to beat her to her senses if she goes crazy.
524* BornLucky: Thinks herself as this when she got a job at L Corp.
525* Twee likes paperwork, finding it not that much different from the tabletop games she plays.
526* Tenebrais offers her paperwork to Twee in exchange for doing Twee's portion of E.G.O. maintenance. Given she's worried about cutting herself one of these days, Twee accepts the deal.
527* During Chesed's Core Suppression, Twee discovers the gimmick for this one, and talks to him over metaphors of coffee and mugs.
528* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:In the Day 47 where You're Bald… removes everyone's hair, Twee decides to do Attachment Work with The Little Prince since her E.G.O. Suit makes her invincible to conventional methods. X decides to restart the Day after that]].
529* ManOnFire: Thanks to the Crumbling Armor's E.G.O. Gift on Day 46. It's not actually hot though, to Evil Kit's ire when he tries roasting marshmallows over it.
530* NoSell: On Day 46, she deals with the [[spoiler:Red Fixer]] by herself. With the Paradise Lost E.G.O. Suit, it being an ALEPH Suit against a WAW Weapon, ''and'' the Knight of Despair's blessing on top of it, she's basically invincible against her foe.
531** And in the non-canon Horrible Death Showcase, she can actually handle the entire Rabbit Team '''''all on her own'''''. She became a MemeticBadass in [=TeeQueue's=] threads thanks to this.
532* TheRival: To Sweet Pea given they were both Welfare Department Captains during separate runs. They currently can't agree over which of them should lead the other and Chesed decides to take command for now.
533* Memorized over 1000 pages of rulebooks.

Prefers to do things at their own pace, take breaks when they can, and will exert just the minimum meaningful effort of what's necessary to do so, but given days in Lobotomy Corporation tend to get hectic, Zeta's mostly reliable still.\

580She is the 1st Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Roland. Still as lazy as ever, but always willing to give out just as much effort as is necessary.
581
582!! Tropes:
583* BrilliantButLazy: Very competent at work, but always looking for time to take breaks. It is precisely for this reason that Yesod recommends their first Blue Star's E.G.O. Weapon to Zeta; to bother to abuse the power would be too much like work.
584* MauveShirt: Used to be a Clerk being getting promoted to Agent, and eventually Department Captain for [[spoiler:Architecture]]. They're looked up to by the other Clerks for this.
585* LaboriousLaziness: Sometimes gets motivated by getting back at whatever gets between them and breaktime.

610* Omni fiddles with the alarms and cognition filter sometimes. Chinely is his senpai.
611* DrowningMySorrows: During the Violet Midnight Ordeal, Omni is seen drunk over [[spoiler:Bishop's apparent death]]. Tenebrais is both worried that he's working despite his state ''and'' impressed that he's still a straight shot with his E.G.O. crossbow in spite of his drunkenness.
612* GenreSavvy: For the Suppression of the Queen of Hatred in the Library, Omni plays himself up as the BigBad for her to focus on, knowing the kind of heroine she thinks she is. Tiphereth actually sees it being useful for this battle.
613* {{Otaku}}: After getting Chinely as his {{senpai}}, Omni starts heading this way too as they snoop in on Bishop's confrontation with Talow and assume it's a rivalry.
614* ThoseTwoGuys: With Chinely.
615* During the [[spoiler:L Corp Civil War, Omni apparently tried to unleash his E.G.O.'s true power, and apparently had parts of him all over the Central Command floor after that, but he did take "that Magical Girl" (the goons think it was King of Greed) with him.]]
616* Upon first seeing a Reception (with Wedge Office and Philip), after the first Scene, Omni is left squeeing. And he can't get enough of them.
617* Always gives it his all during Receptions, fearless of death since he thinks NeverFoundTheBody is in play.

A bit single-minded, finds a lot of things nice to look at, from Today's Shy Look to Amber Dawns, and has a tendency to extend her vowels (and other letters sometimes) a bit when she speaks. Also thinks D.A.D. is an alien.\
658\
659She is the 8th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Yesod.
660
661!! Tropes:
662* BespectacledCutie: Eventually acquires a pair as a Battle Symbol [[https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3977083&pagenumber=105#post520926140 starting with the Suppression of the Singing Machine]]. They're acquired by clearing out the entire Streetlight Office 1 reception solo, which was obviously done off-screen.
663* GirlishPigtails: Long braided twintails as an Agent, though they become shorter as an Assistant Librarian.
664* {{Irony}}: Kaori tries to find proof that D.A.D. is an alien, and eventually enlists the help of T. Hinman, [[VideoGame/XCOMEnemyUnknown an actual alien in disguise]].
665* Kaori holds interest in the Thumb (does she think ''they're'' aliens?)
666* Comes from the Backstreets, just like most of L Corp's employees.
667* TheGamblingAddict: She used to go to plenty of casinos to gamble, to earn money to keep up with the latest alien sightings, and because she really liked the games. This stopped after she was kicked out of J Distict's ones by the Stray Dogs, though.
668* Kaori is acquainted with someone in the Thumb, specifically the "underboss" Kalo (probably before he rose up to that rank). She saw his face during the time she was kicked out of J District's casinos. She didn't think Kalo would still be alive after ten years. And a week after that, she received her L Corp acceptance letter. And she didn't even apply, unlike [=Nu11=] and [=Mu14=].
669* She's not good at the people part of card games such as reading bluffs or figuring out a person's playstyle. Or at people in general. But she needed the money, so she gambled at the casinos to win money for research. Back then, [[spoiler:she and her old partner made a deal. Before "that day", she had a partner. She was the strategist, they were the charismatic one. Together they were invincible. But she lost that friend to the Thumb, specifically Kalo, when they broke their knee ''as a warning to Kaori'', and then the partner was left holding their jawless face. she resented them and him for that ever since.]] She wants revenge, but Yesod won't let her since it risks his team. [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments But Chesed offers to make an opportunity, since he doesn't think only the Sephirot are the only ones allowed to face their pasts.]]
670* She apparently used to cower in a corner against the Thumb.
671* Chesed's team folds after leaving Kalo alone in order for him to face Kaori (Yesod's floor) one-on-one.
672* VengeanceFeelsEmpty: Even after [[spoiler:booking Kalo]], Kaori still doesn't feel satisfied because [[spoiler:he kept a smug face upon death even as she spoke her heart and frustrations out to him]]. The emotions in her then made her explode as a result, Binah theorizing that, wrapped up in the betrayal of her own expectations, the Abnormalities which were supporting her could do so no longer, and when she exceeded their grasp, she simply collapsed under her own weight (in-game, it's a penalty for using The Funeral of the Dead Butterflies Page). As a result, [[spoiler:even after the end of the Reception, she's still a book and hasn't revived yet when she should've]].
673** This situation is a result of becoming unstable, since Assistant Librarians are not as physically stable as Angela or the Patron Librarians. When their emotions overflow beyond a certain point, their current forms are not capable of handling the strain. This is why there is a limit during Receptions… though [[spoiler:Kaori's situation was certainly a loophole]] in this, and Angela is benching Yesod's floor from Receptions until [[spoiler:Kaori]] eventually recovers.

However, acquiring Apocalypse Bird's E.G.O. Gift (which is granted to all survivors of its attack before being Suppressed) brought it up to 3, disqualifying him for the role.
728--> "And now, I shall tilt all the woodland pictures in your room so that they're a little bit off kilter! Muahahahaha!!"
729** That said, despite his actions, he allegedly has goals to bring the agents closer together with all of his schemes.
730* LongHairedPrettyBoy: While his hair was already long back in ''L Corp'', his hairstyle changed come ''Ruina''[[labelnote:*]]Mainly because the specific hairstyle equivalent cannot be found even in mods[[/labelnote]], and it's noticeably more visually appealing. Subverted since his face hasn't changed and he's as troll-y as ever. And then come the "Social Sciences—735.35—Ozma", the mod [=TeeQueue=] was using to accomplish that look was deleted, leading to [[https://lpix.org/4603480/146-05.png another changed long-haired look]].
731* LookBehindYou: After confessing his "evil plan" to bring Tenebrais and Boksi closer together, he slips away by telling the former that there's a three-headed monkey. Given all the Abnormalities in the company, this actually works.
732* MundaneUtility: Evil Kit uses Twee's E.G.O. Gift from the Crumbling Armor (being on fire) to roast marshmallows, until he's told that it's not actually hot.
733* NoodleImplements: During one of Twee's tabletop sessions, Evil Kit somehow (in-character) murdered a dragon (that resembled the one Xiao assumes in her rematch Reception) with a trout (and it had to be this fish specifically, any other fish wouldn't have worked), a rubber band, and a ball of twine. %% https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?noseen=1&threadid=3977083&perpage=40&pagenumber=295#post534195925
734Evil Kit once spilled jam on the E.G.O. Gear during maintenance, and [=SeyserKoze=] wants to make sure this isn't repeated as he assigns Robin to distract him.
735* PokeThePoodle: His modus operandi. Case in point:
736--> "My infiltration yesterday was a resounding success! Now I should be able to accomplish the next phase of my plan: ''[[https://lparchive.org/Lobotomy-Corporation/Update%20211/ stealing the good stuff from the communal fridge!]]'' [[EvilLaugh Muahahaha!!]]"
737* ShipTease: With Tylana.
738* SkintoneSclerae: Is revealed to have these now that there's no PerceptionFilter.
739* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: [[spoiler:Is cursed to be this to people ''unless'' he inconveniences them, and even then only until the grievance had is settled.]] This is why Evil Kit is such a bother on purpose. [[spoiler:That said, there seem to be two exceptions that his Curse cannot affect: direct superiors (being their subordinate is an inconvenience in and of itself), and AI (immune to the curse's effects, and for the same reason the Sephirot and Angela don't work the Abnormalities themselves)]].
740* While drunk on beer, Evil Kit confesses to Tenebrais that his "evil acts" were [[spoiler:to bring her and Boksi closer together]].
741* At the end of Day 31, he's been sighted swapping the contents of employees' lockers, and carving the soap into the shape of… something NotSafeForWork.
742* Dislikes grape flavor after getting an E.G.O. Gift from the Shark.
743* Due to having come from the Outskirts, Evil Kit isn't picky with food.

788* Chiral asks for extra pay in exchange for Hod's orders to do "something scary", and is denied a chance to back out.
789* Chiral finds Queen Bee cute and doesn't like that she feels that way.
790* RefusalOfTheCall: The first time she was awakened by Angela (after Binah's Assistant Librarians were done with Punishing Bird), she took a single look at her outfit, and complained about being too fatigued for this before finding an alternate book to sleep within. This displeased the Mizus as they hoped for a reward for this. Binah decides to allow herself in the Receptions from now on, which placates them. Of course, she was found in the next book Judgment Bird, and was unable to run after that.

886* SituationalSword: Due to his Temperance being 130 at the time, once given the Justitia Suit and [CENSORED] Weapon, he's paradoxically the ideal Agent to work [=WhiteNight=] for information.

905\
906She's the 11th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Yesod.
907
908!! Tropes:
909* GoingNative: Due to [[spoiler:the whole being underground for 10(000) years thing]], T. Hinman can no longer return to her ship, who have most likely left her behind by then, and sticks with the rest of X's Agents from then on.
910* HughMann: T. Hinman, being a (female) Thin Man/Viper from ''VideoGame/{{XCOM}}''. Due to the strangeness of everything else in the Corporation and the Library, she's managed to escape detection. [[spoiler:Only the Plague Doctor knows exactly what she is]]. Eventually, on Day 45, after X's speech, [[spoiler:she confesses the truth to Kaori. And turns out D.A.D. knew as well, but doesn't care.]]
911* HumanityEnsues: May have been reconstituted into a full human now thanks to the Library.
912* {{Irony}}: Kaori tries to find proof that D.A.D. is an alien, and eventually enlists the help of T. Hinman, [[VideoGame/XCOMEnemyUnknown an actual alien in disguise]].
913* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Is prone to saying these things. Nobody ever calls her out on them.
914* Despite the haircut, T. Hinman is female.
915* [[https://lpix.org/4220510/yuriwillinherittheearthold.png May or may not have been rendered a full human now thanks to the Library.]]
916* As seen in the Reception for the Puppets, T. Hinman is pretty fatalistic, and prefers to just life in the moment. "The feeling of a job well done or a fine meal are reward enough… striving to go above your station is simply wishing on a star for things that can't be."
917* Back when she was in the service of the Ethereals, T. Hinman was taught that whether it takes one, ten, or a hundred casualties, it's all worth it so long as they can gain ground, and that none of their lives matter before the gears of progress.

958
959An Agent recruited on Day 37, assigned to the Central Command Team. She transferred to the Information on Day 38 during Tiphereth's Core Suppression, and then returned to Central on Day 39, staying there until the end. Thinks ''too'' highly of her abilities due to going straight to Central Command instead of Training like T. Hinman and Elle Tee, but this is actually because someone needs to tend to the Warm-Hearted Woodsman after Evil Kit's parameters became too high in the aftermath of Apocalypse Bird's first Suppression. She's also a gamer through and through.\
960\
961She is the 7th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Malkuth, going against the preconceived pattern the goons had that all the Agents will go to the Sephirah they answered to back at ''Lobotomy Corporation''. Though given Tiphereth's department had over four Agents in it before the end, it was likely ineivtable that some of hers would go to other Patron Librarians. She's also started a rivalry with Bishop.
962
963!! Tropes:
964* According to Tylana, Dimi tries to shove all the work off onto Gaia sometimes.
965* Her overconfident appearance is a front, and is actually insecure when not in public company. Kaori may or may not be now aware of this. And now Dimi wants to know about the aliens Kaori found. Eventually, she "deduces" it's D.A.D.
966* ExcuseMeWhileIMultitask: During the Reception against the Crying Children, Dimi reveals that she's also gaming with its footage running parallel to her eyes, and that it's why she uses a robotic body. Malkuth comments they'll need to talk about her priorities later.
967* NotSoDifferentRemark: Dimi says this regarding Bishop and Philip: both are Fixers, run away when they're about to die, painfully obvious crushes on girls who are way too good for them (Malkuth and Yuna respectively), and have died at least once. Both vehemently deny this, but she sees this as further proof.
968* PyrrhicVictory: The Reception against Wedge Office [[spoiler:and Distorted Philip]] feels like this to her. Sure, the Library won [[spoiler:even though Philip was teleported away against his will]], but she ended up the last one standing in the end (with Malkuth as the last to fall). Sure, all Librarians are revived, but that bit of knowledge is temporarily excised from those undertaking a Reception in order to boost Emotion Levels.
969* StatingTheSimpleSolution: In ''Ruina'', When Bishop and Malkuth wonder how to deal with Queen Bee and her Worker drones without driving the former into a rampage, she just says they just don't. Since they're not working for Lobotomy Corporation anymore, there's no need to keep her well.
970* WorthIt: Related to the Suppression above, Dimi says it's ''almost'' worth almost exploding into a Worker Bee to see the Queen Bee being turned on by her drones.

1011%% Is his name pronounced as "I'm Idiot", or does it sound like "Immediate"? As a player-made character, there's no way to tell, though he ''has'' been nicknamed "Im" a few times, so it could be the latter.

1033* [[spoiler:One of his teammates was cornered by one of "those things" (probably an Apostle). Then, suddenly, it raised its mask up like something'd caught its attention. It didn't even notice as it was being attacked… and it just wandered off like it had something better to do.]]

1052He's the 12th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Netzach, another deviation from the pattern.

1056* A reference to Carlos Danger
1057* Turns out after awakening, Carlos had went off on his own to read up on the new protocols and rules. He went back hours later to find his colleagues waiting for him.
1058* May have been killed by [[spoiler:[=WhiteNight=] Apostle Juliet a.k.a. Mr. Blond during the L Corp Civil War]].

1071Twenty-two "Agents" recruited on Day 49 via a special contract with the Rabbit Team to help survive Day 49 against [[spoiler:Adam]]. Their sole purpose is so that when the effects of [[spoiler:Hokma's Core Suppression]] inevitably lead to panic/death, they ''may'' fall victim to this instead of X's Agents, since casualties will be inevitable (unless one is CrazyPrepared, super-skilled, and has excellent foresight, which [=TeeQueue=] doesn't). [[spoiler:He does [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyDzb1KUFv4 one such playthrough later on after the end, though]]]].
1072

1074* CannonFodder: Their sole purpose is to be buffer against being screwed by the RNG on day 49, since if someone like Mizu gets instantly panicked/killed, there would be no good options to handle [[spoiler:[=WhiteNight=]]]. Among these Rabbits, Kay-Hoss, the Great Evil King, Cranberry, and Tully bit it.

That day, James set loose two Abnormalities on prupose and got three Clerks and four Agents killed before being gunned down.
1085
1086%% Tiffany Brown, an Agent under Hod who was somehow rehabilitated from horrible nightmares after some counsel with her. She's also leaving to a new department. But on Day 13, Angela informs Hod that Tiffany committed suicide from mental corruption over 90% since she had been overdosing on Enkephalin.

1106%% Nathan, an Agent under Binah, who "once has his boundaries collapsed". During E.G.O. extraction, he carelessly peeked into the Well, but by luck he survived. To minimize the price he had to pay for looking into the Well, he was given the maximum dose of Enkephalin. And so, he could barely return to work. However, once one looks through the crack of the boundary, they can never return to the world that they belonged to before.

1108%% Anya/Anastasia, an employee under Hokma. She lived with her parents and little sister. She eagerly wanted to study, but her family’s financial state wouldn’t allow her. Still, she tried to join one of the Wings. However, she just wasn’t good enough for them. Poor Anya was struggling to figure out what to do next, she even considered ending it all as a last resort. That was until she received a letter from a Wing--Lobotomy Corporation has her qualified to join them, delivered by Hokma himself.

1166
1167The 18th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Malkuth, just in time for the first Realization Battle in the Floor of History. Acts like he's still working in Lobotomy Corporation, and he calls everyone newbies despite that only applying to Joshua himself.\
1168\
1169Back in Lobotomy Corporation, he was what was considered an Information Pollution Abnormality, and caused problems with the employee record templates that if not ridden of, its effects would spread into the other templates. Joshua is the result of that. With all templates destroyed, this Joshua is just a leftover.
1170
1171!! Tropes:
1172* AscendedMeme: [[https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/568220/view/4549154898511294831 Information Pollution Abnormality Agent Joshua]], makes an appearance in [[https://lparchive.org/Lobotomy-Corporation/Update%20201/ the BCP Episode for Child of the Galaxy]] as an "Abnormality" needing to be Suppressed.
1173** And this Joshua is referenced again in ''Ruina'' when Netzach and Mr. Black are to Suppress the Child of the Galaxy, the latter calling it the Joshuapocalypse that the Child saved them from. He's also the 18th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, assigned to Malkuth.
1174* BeadyEyedLoser: Just like [=ImIdiot=]. He even likes Joshua for this reason.
1175* HumanoidAbomination: Not to the same degree as Mizu, but is still one nonetheless. His skin's even white just like all Agents looked under the Manager's PerceptionFilter.
1176* MrExposition: Serves as one to the other Assistant Librarians in regards to Abnormalities not encountered in [=TeeQueue's=] main playthrough of Lobotomy Corporation.
1177* PaintingTheMedium: [[https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3977083&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=147#post523008180 Joshua's nameplate being distinctly different from the other Assistant Librarians]] is because it's the result of an Abnormality's corrupting influence instead of a proper 'person' like the others.

1193Sweet Pea first debuted in the "Better Call Paul" mini-series as the Team Captain of the Welfare Department [[spoiler:during Abel's run of the company]]. She was killed and replaced by Nothing There, but has also appeared in other episodes trying to Suppress Snow White's Apple, getting run over and surviving the Express Train to Hell.\
1194\
1195She's the 22nd Assistant Librarian to be awakened, alongside Twee and her Patron Librarian Chesed. She debuts butting heads with Twee, the later Captain of the Welfare Department during X's time.
1196
1197!! Tropes:
1198* FragileSpeedster: Prefers this type of combat, in contrast to Twee's TheBerserker style.
1199* LaserGuidedAmnesia: While this is par for the course for all L Corp employees, Sweet Pea suffers one of these during the Suppression against Ozma during her time as an Assistant Librarian. It doesn't hamper her combat ability that much, and she also still remembers contesting Twee's claim for Captainship.
1200* TheNicknamer: Used to call Medea "Meds" back in a previous Pre-X timeloop. She's also calling Elle Tee "Eltie".
1201* TheRival: To Twee given they were both Welfare Department Captains during separate runs, and she thinks Twee doesn't have what it takes. Chesed decides to just take command for now.
1202* RecurringCharacter: In the "Better Call Paul" mini-series, which is saying something since most Agents there end up dying by the end of it (most of them Paul himself).
1203* Apparently infamous for analyzing things quickly.
1204* Back in her latest timeline, Sweet Pea and Medea cleaved a lot in Suppressions together. She even called her "Meds".

1219The 24th Assistant Librarian to be "awakened", and assigned to Yesod, just in time for the second Realization Battle in the Floor of Technological Sciences. Their weird situation is because prior to Roland's intrusion, Angela ran into trouble with receiving guests. Plan A was to have the Sephirot do it, but they were asleep at the time. Plan B involved Null_Mia, who was actually two Clerks from the Information Team, [=Nu11=] and [=Mu14=]. However, they were both left mentally incompete and suffered immediate breakdowns as a result of having been taken in by The Funeral of the Dead Butterflies—an Abnormality whose task it is to give rest to employees—when their energy ran out. The result is upon revival they were merged into Null_Mia[[labelnote:*]]Technically 'Null_Muia,' but they decided that sounded wrong.[[/labelnote]]. They're also technically the source of the Rumor of the Library Ghosts.
1220
1221!! Tropes:
1222* GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: [=Nu11=] originally designed them to act as a HUD to alert of danger in order to find a good place to hide, given they were Clerks at the time. They're susceptible to overload, though, and may need rebooting on occasion.
1223* SharingABody: Used to be two Clerks from Yesod's department, but were incomplete as a result of part of them having been taken in by The Funeral of the Dead Butterflies, and thus their minds were incomplete and had to be merged into one Light body.
1224* [[https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?noseen=1&threadid=3977083&perpage=40&pagenumber=174#post524250274 NullBlack and MetaMeme have been making fanart for TeeQueue's Ruina threads since it started, but they weren't around for the L Corp thread so they couldn't submit nuggets for the original team (or possibly just did so too late to get used).

She was subjected to White damage from the Nameless Fetus, was seen working on the Scorched Girl, whacking Paul while driven insane after he touched the Don't Touch Me, granted protection by Army in Black, Suppressing the Silent Orchestra while the Big and Will Be Bad Wolf and Red Riding Hooded Mercenary are both loose, doing work on Void Dream and trying to Suppress it when it went loose, saved Paul from the Snow Queen by dueling it and winning, and knocking Paul back to his senses after he was driven to panic by the Dream of a Black Swan.\
1245\
1246She's the 34th Assistant Librarian to be awakened, and assigned to Roland after Suppressing the Snow Queen, though has made it a point to not be noticed by any of them, joining Receptions as necessary, and slipping away when the job's done. She eventually gets noticed during the Reception against [[spoiler:the Red Mist]] after the enemy's Mass Attack booked Roland and staggered Steve and Zaida, leaving Nea and Gaia.

1250!! Tropes:
1251* [[https://lpix.org/4425345/108-66.png was awakened already, but just didn't show up until later]].
1252* Nea make a diary out of one of the books after turning its pages all blank, and getting herself a pen. "It's important to have a good way to get thoughts out of your head, before they overflow and make you do something stupid." The boss (Roland) was voluntold for a training mission, to expand Angela's practice at holding multiple receptions at once.
1253* BeneathNotice: In her diary entry, she goes on a metaphor about the spotlight, about prople wanting to be in control, and thus being under the spotlight. Those under the spotlight bear the brunt of all the pain and drama, and so to avoid that fate, stay out of it, and set up those who want to do big in the spotlight. Nea is good at being unnoticeable as a result, because she believes those people had a better chance of getting by in the City than a big personality with big dreams. However, Evil Kit proves able to penetrate this effect thanks to [[spoiler:his own curse that makes him unnoticeable]].
1254* HeroicSacrifice: During the final Reception against Xiao, Nea uses a setup that specficially ensures she gets booked on the first Scene, instantly powering up everyone else thanks to their ''Remembrance'' passive, and forcing everyone to gain Emotion Levels with heavy Negative coins, letting [=TeeQueue=] quickly get ''Curiosity'' or ''Lies'' right away. And this gives her fellow Librarians the edge needed to win. Evil Kit asks her about this later on, given her entire thing was to survive. She confesses that it's because [[spoiler:unlike everyone else, she never forget sthe truth of the Library during Receptions. Remembering would only affect ''her'' emotional state, which wouldn't matter given that she'd be gone before the fight really started. So, she got a waiver from the boss, did her job, and went back behind the curtain.]]
1255* ThereAreTwoKindsOfPeopleInTheWorld: As quoted in her diary.
1256--> "See, ultimately, the world can be broken up into two main types of people: the ones who do things, and the ones who have things done to them. A positive and negative, basically.
