Along similar lines, if she depended on him to keep her going, then she had to keep him safe from the other members of the Nine.  There was infighting in the group, apparently, though I’d seen no sign of it with the team thus far.

Which is why I don’t think anyone except Cherish, Bonesaw and maybe Jack know about it. Maybe not even Bonesaw.

Notably, this means the real body must be kept out of the way of the Nine’s general rampage, not just out of the way of members going specifically after Siberian. That’s a point that’s been lurking in the back of my mind for a while, actually.

Keeping the ordinary man safe wouldn’t be a problem if he shared Siberian’s senses like I shared those of my bugs.  She could keep an eye out for trouble and he could slip away or hide if a member of the Nine came around.

I mean, yeah, it’d be less of a problem. There’d still be a lot of Nine to keep track of.

Until Cherish joined the group.  I wonder how that had played out.  Some sort of deal?  Threats, overt or implied?

Hmm. So how long would Cherish be able to manipulate Siberian before she was torn to pieces?
