[Despite the seriousness of the conversation Felix couldn't help but react to the innuendo in the only way he knew how: to escalate it. He juggled his hands as if weighing which of them were more important--or likely to play dominant at any given time--than the other and finally just shrugged as if it didn't matter which one was used. Really, either would do. He liked both, but he only needed one to fuck someone over.
His hands closed into loose fists and dropped back down to his sides as the seriousness returned to his body language. He took a moment to reply as his mind weighed her words versus her demeanor and what he knew about her via personnel file, the Counselor's views, and his own experience. A part of him wouldn't put it past her to ruin his fucking life here, but another part of him might have been a little hopeful.
Hope was for the weak. He'd rather have a sure thing.]
So, I don't start any trouble and you keep your pretty little mouth shut.
[He hated saying it out loud. Like it might give her ideas. But he needed clarification, and an assurance. He wasn't certain her word would amount to much, honestly, but 'good guys' always tried to be honorable or some shit, right? It was all he had at the moment so it would have to do.]
You don't and I won't guarantee what'll happen to you or anyone else who gets in my way. [With a tone shift:] But hey! I'm just here to have fun and see the pesky orbs gathered for endgame. No one has any objections to that...with good reason.
