i feel like clients can cache the absence of objects (including NPCS) as well as they can cache their presence. leaving an area and returning might not refresh the client properly. please completely quit out your client, restart it, and rejoin. i might be too paranoid in this advice - but such a failure mode would explain some bugs i've seen.

on the other hand, this might be an issue related to when objects' on_activate callbacks actually run. they do not run if something is reloaded after being cached in the main server process's memory, even if the object was not "active" in between. i don't have a proposal on how to make that more reliable, other than tracking the last time an object's on_step was called.

Well, I've not only left the client and returned but used a different client. Isaac is gone entirely, and I didn't remove him with a lasso... I'm wondering now if it was possible he died (which would be a shame from the items he had and his dialogue), but that doesn't seem right.
