first of all. the whole "kill every parasite on sight, no matter how conscious they seem" rule? disregarded. He WAS obeying it- he had been about to kill Hirudo- but once he showed his abilities and caught Junaid's personal interest, he forgot all about that rule, and now he's spending a strange amount of time and even forming a bond with parasite that he was supposed to kill. oddity

second, he's the type to work alone. not exactly rebellious in a way that he's directly breaking any rules, but it raises eyebrows, you know what I mean? he doesn't even seem to really speak to or enjoy being around his coworkers much, except for the gas mask guy, who he's shown to be close with (but because of their similar personalities and tastes in the weirder things, it's safe to assume that the gas mask guy is ALSO some sort of rebel/outcast). I also think that him working alone is an excuse to give him more freedom. He can essentially just do whatever he'd like on his missions. Its how he got away with recruiting Hirudo, after all. I'm sure that if he had another exterminator tagging along, then they wouldn't have allowed that to happen

his little unconventional scissor weapon (among all the other surgical tools in his arsenal), and the way that he doesn't wear the uniforms that the rest of the exterminators do. he stands out immediately.

Most exterminators are either shown or assumed to have a distaste for parasites as a whole, but Junaid seems like the type to lean more towards them than regular people. He is rumored to "like leeches more than people," after all.

the hand that feeds by nine inch nails being in his official playlist

the "I'm a good, clean person!" artwork could be percieved as him mocking the exterminator organization, though that wasn't my initial interpretation of it

Sure, why it’s said that junaid is mainly interested in leech hosts, he probably is also interested in what the other parasites can do. Leucole can hypnotise because of the broodsac he’s infected with, mirori is basically a walking infection which she uses to her advantage to lure and seduce ppl as one of the ways heart worn infections spread are though mating, liz is probably an extremely rare case of a being mosquito “sister” host instead of a much more mutated “mother” host, that’s only a few examples

Plus, these guys are humanoid hosts, and it’s said by rach that humanoid hosts are very rare cases compared to more monstrous looking ones

We’ve seen official art of hirudo acting chill with characters like ixxi, liz, mirori, and mr muruko, and I imagine it’s a case where it was originally sent to kill them before Junaid realised how fascinating they were and had hiurdo spare them and thus mutually respected relationships/friendships developed
