It's hilarious that Loid's therapy route went along both the professional, accepted route (recognizing the suffering of the patient even if the cause seems outlandish, keeping communication open, reassuring that things can be improved) and then also just veered right off a cliff (Hey, he might just be a mutant or a ghost! Let me feed you other delusions to potentially pushyou even furhter away from reality!)

I don't know what it is, but something about Anya's conclusion at the end of the chapter made me confident that it's not actually true (or at least, not 1:1 the same)

Donovan's inner monologue is either horrific or... still horrific, but also kind of funny.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that Donovan's version of ESP is flawed. Likely just confirming his previous thoughts about the target or otherwise distorted, leading to his strange behavior and creepy effect on others.

Yeah Loid would totally be disappeared by now if Donovan actually got a read on him. I mean I guess you could argue that maybe Donovan has surveillance on Loid, but Loid's been actively running other side ops against Ostania in the mean time, so like, it's doing him no good to keep letting Loid go free.

Even if Donovan had psychically read that Loid was trying to use his daughter's enrollment in the school and relationship with Damian to get close to Donovan, that would be completely expected and not even something you'd need psychic powers to guess at.

True. It's kind of hard to explain. There's a Webtoon called Space Boy where female MC has something like what I'm talking about.

If Donovan can flat out read minds then Loid has been found out for sure, which would then beg the question "what does Donovan gain from letting WISE operate in Ostania?"

I went back to the chapter where they met to see specifically what Loid was thinking at the time and he literally thinks "I am a spy after all" lol. So yeah either Donovan doesn't have full on mind reading, had some weird restriction at the time like Anya's full moon thing, or is aware and is letting Loid operate for some reason.

My guess is Donovan's mind reading ability works too well, meaning he hears the voices of everyone around him for a wide range, hence his strange appearance and why he doesn't speak much (he has to concentrate extra hard on one person in order to give an answer), so when he met Lloyd he was so overwhelmed by noise around him he couldn't pick up any of Lloyd's 'I AM THE GREATEST SPY WHO EVER LIVED' internal monologue.

Donovan mistook Loid for Daybreak and he is understandably scared.

My bet is that Donovan isn't a 'natural' telepath like Anya, and was granted his powers through the unethical experimentation program that she and Bond were subjected to. He's a Cyber-Newtype rather than the real deal, to use Gundam terminology, and the practical and karmic consequence for him sacrificing cute kids and animals to muck around with forces beyond his comprehension is that he got half the power and twice the insanity of the average telepath. That also gives him and his goons a motive to hunt down Anya, because she's got a better version of what he's got.

If he does want to start a war, a good excuse if he plays his cards right. He might know Loid is a spy, and he could definitely have him arrested if he wanted, but he has no guarantee that would link him to anything big. If he acts at the right time and gets concrete proof, though, that could be the powder-keg to getting what he wants. Alternatively, his goal is really something else and he doesn't care what Loid does, since if a spy is operating under wrong assumptions there's not much reason to correct him.

Maybe he thinks Loid would make for a worthy ally? I could see him wanting to recruit Loid, either by converting him or by strongarming him once Loid's caught in a trap. But I am also fully on board with him thinking spies are neat just like his favourite TV show.

If Donovan's a mind reader, and he's seen Loid in person, he's going to clock that the world's greatest spy is working against him, and that this guy has a wife and child he thinks about constantly, no matter how hard he tries not to. There's good odds that Donovan knows that Yor is Garden's (And, likely, his) prize assassin. There's an outside chance he'd recognize Anya as the product of an experimental program funded with government dark money, because Donovan, himself, probably bankrolled, and might be one of the results of, said program. So what happens if you can successfully feign total vulnerability to the finest intelligence officer of your country's most dangerous rival state? What happens when you have personal leverage over him? If Donovan's a real villain, dude's primed to set up a trap for all of the important players of WISE in Ostanian borders, and it's a trap that's going to (mostly) work.

the key point is that loid does not know about anya and anya has been asleep when she was near desmond. it's very deliberate.

Loid definitely thinks about Anya, though. If Desmond can read minds, all he has to do is recognize her from Loid's brain, even if Loid, himself, is none-the-wiser. That's several big ifs, though. However, Desmond is likely very aware of Yor.

I dunno. The Shopkeeper's not exactly seemed on board the Desmond train - in fact, he even seemed suspicious when he heard Loid was making approving noises about Donovan.

Garden seems to be an independent but patriotic organization. They're not beholden to Ostania's government (and as pointed out, don't really approve of the current ruling party) but they consider what they're doing to be for the sake of Ostania
