Mayerling would raise an eyebrow at the continued vagaries of heroes in Dabi's world but accepts that the man isn't going to share more than he already has—that is, nothing which lets Mayerling determine for himself whether he considers Dabi a villain or not. He considers the man shady, has from the start, but so are many people pushed to the side in society. They learn to adopt, whatever they were like before. No new information there.

He shrugs at the determination there's no such things as a new you. Some people are good at it. At least on the Frontier, where people can go their whole lives never interacting with strangers from somewhere else, it's possible for one's past not to catch up. At least on a human time scale.

"Sheriffs locally. Hunters for the dangers too much or ranging too far from towns," Mayerling says, "Central government can get written to for aide, but no one in the Frontier counts on them."
