I strongly feel that this is the real direction of Brun's initial character arc. Although she has a friend in Renee, Brun has mostly been very socially isolated, mostly because she has a very difficult time 'getting' people. She has evidently dealt with this simply by never leaving her mental safe-zone of a tiny circle of friends and casual working associates; it has never occurred to her before that she could meet someone who seems so similar to her in the manner that Hannelore seems to.

The events of the fire and afterwards have forced Brun to expand her circle and get to know new people. I think that Jeph is planning to write her learning, slowly (and possibly painfully), to deal with an expanded circle and to have a social life. This will doubtless include some missteps and at least some of her new social connections will crash and burn dramatically. I suspect that's why we have both Clinton and Elliott interested in getting to know her better: So Jeph can write at least one unsuccessful date into Brun's story as part of her personal growth and learning to have the courage to take a risk on people.

Just an additional note: I think that both Brun and Hanners are over-estimating their similarities and I suspect that this will have consequences at a later date.

It could become

* QCverse gets an Auditor.

Or maybe an auditor? (I admit I kinda like the idea of an agency that has Deeply Scary Sorcerer (DSS) amongst it's official ranks ...)

Great now another potential ship.  The triangle is turning into a square. 

jheartney:
Another similarity between Hanners and Brun is the Floof. But Hanners has it all over Brun in the smiling department.

My impression is that Brun was a character Jeph improvised into being as a foil for Clinton, but then got interested enough in her to need a reason to paste her into the day-to-day cast. So we're starting to see connections formed with other characters. (Note that despite all her recent appearances, Brun still hasn't made it onto the Cast page.)

Thrudd:
Roomie - heck no - replacement for Juicy as resident in the [name of apartment here] a definite yes.
On the Atomic clock front.
Research lab level of quality of assembly and execution

Can you say - on a chip as part of your GPS?
Soon they will know EXACTLY where you are.  :psyduck:
