I love the mercenaries addressing their commander as 'Yo, Admiral' and Gregor calling Aral Uncle Aral and Simon eating his fingernails to the shoulder and 'the unforeseen is always the default, during war' and the passing mention of the Vorbrettens and a young Miles playing Human Ludo and Aral's plans for making a living on Beta. So much.
And the rhythm of 'and- it was-- impressed, yes!' is very Bujold indeed.
