The nicest part about having a business/slightly-leaning-toward-friendship with Maiden is that it is blissfully drama free even when everything else is a giant trashfire. Is the sky falling? Is the world turning gray? Is the production collapsing in and on itself? Cool. Maybe he can just grab a tea with Persephone and watch the world burn!
The only exception to this rule is when Persephone is transferred to another program, and Intensity doesn't have his pocket White Mage to call upon. Those days suck.
But otherwise, Persephone is dependable and reliable and unchanging. Even if a conversation has gone awry, Persephone will have usually forgiven Intensity (probably. It's hard to tell really) by the next one and things can continue on per usual. And in the meantime, he can get snippets of information about Persephone's world that help give insight to why he is the way he is. And why all the Exalted are the way they are. Considering some of the things he's seen, he's not surprised that Shrike is very orderly and Eclipse doesn't trust people and Amaranth is very militaristic. Their world is not a kind one. Nor does it seem to be a forgiving one. People are just doing what they need to survive.
He does like that the healing entity is called the Maiden of Endings. How appropriate.
Intensity is also very glad to have Persephone join the ranks of Intensity corp under a more officially capacity and as an information gatherer. He's very orderly and complete, so Intensity doesn't have to worry about a bias or information loss in transfer. Nor does he have to worry about secrecy since these are all things in Persephone's wheelhouse.
Could do with a little more ambition, but he'll take what he can get!
tl;dr Persephone is exactly as advertised on the tin. No giant changes in CR since they've leveled out BUT THAT IS A GOOD THING. He wouldn't want it any other way.

Reverse CR me.
