Difference from Rufus over a title? No. Instead it's difference is in how Reeve views himself, how he treats himself. In fact, it's a difference in how he carries himself. Oh. And the coat. A nice new one that covers quite a bit of him and no doubt takes some effort to get off. But Reeve liked it and it struck him that a single nice coat can cover a lot and mean he doesn't have to deal as much with pressing shirts and the like. Maybe he picked that up from Rufus.

"Good afternoon," Reeve greets. He's already apologized to Rude and Reno for the gear that had to be carried in. And bags that are lighter he waves away from where Rufus is set to receive him. "Thank you, Rufus. There is a lot to cover today. I've got progress reports, a few organizational level questions, and I need to teach you how to operate a Cait unit."
