Watching (for Robin)
She was just watching, for now. Iota flitted at superhuman speed from cover to cover as she followed the cartel operatives. Just... you now. To see how they were adjusting in wake of their recent unfortunately-minor losses. Poor Tomas. But it would get better. And she just wanted to make sure his information didn't fall behind when he was busy elsewhere.

	Iota didn't invest nearly so much meaning in it. She just meant he lived here. "...But you're randomly deciding it's inevitable, so that makes bothering him more important than the people who /already are killing people?/" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Thomas raised an eyebrow at that. "No. You're assuming this is both random and more important than the scum who kill people. Which is incorrect on both accounts." He tilts his head at her curiously. "So tell me, when I look into your cousin's work with this particular cartel, in Brazil and the Caribbean especially, do you really think I'll find all the people who were foiled nicely in jail with not a rumour of any death? None?" Yes, it was 'when' and not 'if' for a reason. This was not something one maybe looked into, you had to. Unknown likely killing element on the streets? Yeah, you had to.

"I didn't say that!" Of course Tomas probably killed people on some of those occasions when she wasn't taken along. But he avoided it with her because death -- as opposed to screaming, bleeding bad guys, which were fine -- spoiled everything and Tomas was sweet like that.

Even Iota's not stupid enough to realize that she's brought trouble on the family though.
"We don't have to be your problem. and it's none of your business anyway." And then she's gone.

	Thomas watches her go, no point in following or starting a chase at the moment. Not enough info and she had the speed advantage. He rolls his eyes at her parting words once she's gone and mutters to himself. "They all think that huh?" (Reply to this)(Parent)
