Aisha moved quickly aside as a spider moved from the kitchen, past her and to the table.  Whatever cameras or artificial intelligence it used, it didn’t seem to notice her.

Oh, good.

Unless otherwise suggested, I’m going to attribute that more to the spiders not being tasked with watching out than to Imp’s power for now.

It handed Bonesaw a diet cola that the little girl opened with bloody fingers and drank.

Gotta keep hydrated while working!

With a little more confidence, Aisha moved further inside, giving a wide berth to Crawler and Burnscar’s foot-high images of flame.

Probably a good idea. I get the feeling they’d be more likely to notice Imp if she caught fire. Especially Burnscar, who can probably sense nearby fires.

Holding her weapons, Aisha stood next to Shatterbird, at one end of the couch.

See, this is where you could use that knife. Shatterbird is by far the most deadly Slaughterhouse member, but she’s fragile. You could probably stab her in the back easily, and maybe even get away with it unnoticed.

At least mechanically speaking. The emotional difficulty of assassinating someone is a whole other can of worms.

Also, assassinating one of the Nine other than Jack could be disastrous for the city, due to revenge and such.
