I spoke quickly, “Grue, shut him up.”
Grue raised his hand. But he didn’t blanket Armsmaster in his darkness.
Yeeah, Grue already noticed that something was up, and now you want him to stop someone from telling you what? Not gonna happen.
“She’s a wannabe hero. Has been from the start, since the night Lung was first brought into custody.”
Grue’s hand dropped to his side.
I’m also curious about Miss Militia’s reaction. Has Army told her about Skitter?
“I met her that night. She said she was a hero, that you Undersiders mistook her for a villain. I didn’t think twice about it until she arranged a meeting with me, the night before the bank robbery. Told me she had joined your group as an undercover agent, getting the dirt on you so she could hand that group over to us. Talked to me again the night you raided the fundraiser, out there on the balcony. Told me if I let her go, she’d get the details on your boss to me. Guess she hasn’t gotten around to figuring that little detail out, yet.”
Man, if you’d just stopped before that last sentence, you would’ve left Taylor in a lot more trouble than you just did, I think.
The Undersiders know for a fact that Taylor has figured out that detail, about a week ago (or a little more? the timeline is getting a little less solid for me as time goes on, but I do believe they mentioned to Coil that the events of Buzz happened the day after those of Tangle, and the meeting was a week after Purity’s rampage), but now Army implied that she hasn’t gotten back to the Protectorate about it yet.
