“We keep getting through these fights by the skin of our teeth. We’re not up to it. Just a few days after we helped take down the ABB, a situation that had two of our members facing down Lung and Oni Lee, we were up against the Protectorate, the Wards and Empire Eighty-Eight in the span of forty-eight hours.
Yeah, that’s fair. It’s been pretty intense.
Even with your people and your powers to help, we’re not strong enough for this.”
“I see,” Coil turned to face the lower section of the sub-basement and look down at his people. He rested his hands on the railing, “Are you terminating our arrangement?”
Tattletale shook her head, “We’d rather not, but it depends on what we agree to here and now, in this meeting.
This could get interesting.
We talked this over for the past week, and I’ll be blunt. The one person who wasn’t keen on taking your deal changed her mind,
eyyy, told ya it’d happen
but the rest of us now have some serious reservations. And it’s not just the issue of our safety.”
Hm… Concerns over trust, maybe?
Coil nodded. “Well, let me start by saying I’m pleased to hear about your change of heart, Bitch. Can I ask what prompted it?”
So he knew about Rachel’s reservations, despite Tattle sounding like she didn’t want to name names. It’s been a week, though, so it’s not far-fetched that Brian mentioned it at some point. Besides, Tattle did narrow it down by using “her” and kind of implying it wasn’t herself.
