So is there a captain's launch? Like a fancy shuttle for the captain to use. Its mostly a western navy tradition so maybe it doesn't carry over but im running out of non spoiler questions.

So what kind of crimes get you sent to Sheol rather than prison on any given world or station? There are political prisoners and i get that but i thought those were rare high end people but open to being wrong about that. But I guess for no real reason I thought gen pop was mostly mid level enforcer kind of people but we've met no prisoner that fits that type. The Cutters were mindless thugs and kind of a death cult so its makes sense why they're there but the rest of them? I assumed there are no white collar criminal there but I can't point to anything in either book that makes me think that. Take Blue, she seems like she was mostly a thief how does that kind of criminal end up in the darkest hole in the universe? I get the twins, i can't keep track of their names i mostly call them stitch and switch in my head I can see why they went to a special prison, and my guess is liliana accidently killed or harmed someone she shouldn't have, but the rest of them? I'm of course curious about that skill breakdown sheet Greye keeps talking about but i'll wait until it comes up. I guess my question what get you sent to Sheol rather than anywhere else, there haven't been in depth looks at anybody but there doesn't seem to be anything deeply special about most of the people in prison

I i try to keep to things that won't spoil the plot. So is there some kind of rule about fighting robots? If the Astori feed on life wouldn't fighting robot negate that? But it also seems like there are rules around intelligent AI. Seems like some are considered people and some aren't. Like the companions can't be considered people because they get no choice who they serve, which is why if figure Greye couldn't be left in the custody of his mom because she likely couldn't work or be made the guardian of a living person. To that end are artificial allowed to work? could a company just build a workforce of artificial people, I could see there being laws about that. It was said th4e Sheol had drone fighters, but are those AI piloted? or people with joysticks? So spoiler I want, is Greye going to get some clothes? I knows he's going down to the planet next book but is he really negotiating all that in his bloody T-shirt and jeans, or a vac-suit? As I theorize what's going to happen next I keep finding myself plotting different way Greye could find his way to an Admiral's uniform, and the rest of the crew. You don't have to tell me what the fix is but is the fix coming?
