BenRG:
Ah! The joys of paranoid ideation, where denial is a confession and lack of evidence of a worst-case interpretation is suspicious!
In Renee's defence, she doesn't know Clinton or anything about him other than the fact that he inserted himself into Brun's life when she was at a low, vulnerable spot. A good friend should be at least concerned! I'll reserve judgement until we see how she reacts to him in person and whether she'll give him a chance.
FWIW, I'm expecting a show of protective aggression followed by suspicious glares and fretting.

Mine...
Or did you mean the empty sea painting? I think the ship went down with the bar.

There are better images of her here and here. Considering how much Jeph's art has changed since then, as well as the fact that even series regulars like Dora seem to change from one appearance to the next, I guess it's not too much of a stretch to say it's the same Renee.
Which means that Marten's ex-girlfriend's ex-coworker and Marten's girlfriend's brother's once-bartender are friends, and this meeting between the two of them is probably the furthest removed from the original main cast (Marten/Faye/Dora/Steve) as we've ever been. Weird but cool, eh?
QuestionableIntentions:
The real question is of course if Renee would be as paranoid about a girl helping Brun?
Also, with all the AI talk lately, I wonder if Jeph watches Person of Interest?

Re: father figure: how about parental figure? Being a strong and grounding presence could just as well be a mother.
Renee: she's about as infuriating as the time we met her. I get that she's afraid for Brun, but Brun has to make her own decisions on who to trust, and her criteria are pretty good - he was helpful, he didn't try anything, and he respected her wishes. Renee acts like this kind of paranoia is normal, but it really isn't; and she doesn't help at all calling Clinton a creep or maybe-murderer. She could help Brun hammer out a road map on what to do next, or what to do if she's ever in a similar situation again, but nah, she likes Brun depending on her...
