When Broadway met Antoinette Dracon, I noticed something kind of interesting. He is immediately hostile and even downright rude, and some might say he had good reason given his history with her brother. On the other hand, he judged her as soon as he heard the name 'Dracon'. Guilt by association. He dismissed her, and would have left if she hadn't mentioned the city being in danger.

Broadway was displaying PREJUDICE here. We, the audience, don't know much more about her than he does, but as Dracons go she doesn't seem so bad. She was born into a crime family, and likely isn't a saint, but I think he really jumped the gun here, if you'll pardon the pun.

I think a certain degree of skepticism is understandable and even smart, but so is hearing her out and deciding on a course of action, and he only listened after she pleaded with him. Broadway was my favorite character when I was a kid watching the show in the 90's, but his reaction to this particular Dracon had me thinking that Goliath probably did pick the right member of the trio to be his Second.

I still love him, don't get me wrong! But I thought this was a neat comparison, him judging Antoinette the way humans judge his species: with mistrust and hostility. My question is, was that comparison deliberate?
