Marked

[Reeves]

The line would lead through quite a chunk of the hideout, gradually progressing from a common area intended to be used by all manner of Xeno personnel, to a series of makeshift offices and briefing rooms aimed at the generation rebellious anti-government posters and other such supplies which would no doubt prove valuable for rallying dissidents on the planet to the cause. The hideout was by all means a passive operation, it was in no way poised to facilitate any direct assaults on police or corporate infrastructure on the planet, no it served to undermine them with rhetoric primarily, in addition to instigating unrest, it served as a convenient rest stop for Xeno personnel moving from one half of Liberty to the other, given its perfectly central location.

Eventually she was before a thick steel door, a more imposing version of the Cobra painted across the length and breadth of it. No doubt he was on the other side, likely waiting for his "accomplice" to eventually arrive. Stepping through the threshold revealed a scene which subverted expectations, the room was remarkably messy. No, it appeared quite close to ransacked. Some items seemed as if they had been thrown around in frustration, energy blaster impacts across the wall to Olivia's right and a fairly fatigued and worn Morreti seated at the center of the room. It was uncharacteristic of him to disregard his appearance like this, almost as if Sal's death had weighed on him a little heavier than might have been anticipated given his uncaring persona. The Cobra was in fact just a mark, the man it represented differed very little from his peers and was no more impervious to the shortcomings of human nature. Perhaps even less.

Despite how disgruntled he looked, his senses were still with him and he peered up instantly to take note of the fact that he was no longer alone. "You're in one piece, wasn't honestly expecting you to play along with the security I have to enforce for a place like this. The mark suits you, but I want it back when you're leaving here for good. It's not meant to be a souvenir."
