[He could kill him. He probably should kill him, because the Captain of the Silvermane guards knows what he looks like. Even if he doesn't know his name, asking around for the blue-haired guy with green eyes in a place like Belobog would bring up a pretty short list of names, with his right at the top. Leaving bodies is high profile, but so is biting a lawman.]
[But he also doesn't like leaving bodies. And Gepard's probably already coming to that conclusion on his own, based on his own behavior.]
[More immediate problem, though-- there are more guards in the area, and they're going to start looking for their wayward Captain. Staying here means that they'll definitely find him and catch him red-handed, literally standing around like an asshole with Gepard in his arms. Granted, leaving with Gepard also means that they're going to think he kidnapped him or something, but he kind of doesn't want to leave him on the street, either. He doesn't know how long it'll take for his boys to find him, and he's having a strange reaction to Sampo's anesthetics. If he can't take him to the hospital, he should at least look after him and make sure he sobers up.]
You're really a pain, do you know that? [But he's moving, taking Gepard away from the Administrative District where his guardsmen are presumably waiting for him.] You're lucky that you're cute.
[Sampo has a safehouse in the Overworld, and he hates that he'll have to abandon it after this, but there's nowhere else for him to take Gepard to at this time of night. He navigates the twisting back alleys with easy familiarity.]
For what it's worth, I don't kill people. [For what it's worth, which probably isn't much.]
[Sampo shifts Gepard's weight a little to get at his keys, opening a door that leads to one of those tiny nothing one-bedroom apartments in the cheap part of town. It's not much, but he really only uses it to crash for the night anyway-- it just needs to be a place that's warm and secure, it doesn't need to be fancy. But it's got a bedroom with a real bed in it and a couch that's mostly comfortable and definitely secondhand, and a kitchenette that has literally no food in it other than a can of instant coffee. If he turns on the boiler for long enough, he can even sometimes take a shower that's kind of warm.]
Home sweet home. [He shuts the door with his hip and has to shift Gepard again to bolt the lock. Then it's down onto the threadbare couch for you, Captain, hope it's good enough for you. Try to stay put while Sampo gets the geomarrow heater going to warm the place up.]
