Default bending stereotypes

The hero cop isn't a strong silent type. He's brave all right, and knows his business, but when things start going wrong he has to deal with the stress somehow, so he starts coaching his courage. Sometimes it's just muttering, but if things get really tight he flat out talks to himself.

And that platoon sergeant. He's not a tough-guy. He's a competent and experienced soldier all right, but his real value comes from a finely tuned sense of what the superiors really value. He can give his lieutenant very valuable advice about which regs are solid, which have a bit of wiggle room, and which can be ignored entirely.

And that politician. He's not crooked. But between the party, the donors, the civil service and the press, there are at least ten people who are making demands he can't afford to ignore, and life is a constant balancing act between them.

Others?
