The cells beneath the Silvermane Guard headquarters really could use some updating, Sampo thinks as he waits in one of them.
He'd been dragged in here on some minor, petty charges that he's about ninety-nine percent sure he'll be able to wriggle his way out of, and even if he can't? He'll be able to flirt his way out of, once Dunn's not on guard duty anymore. Dunn is an unfortunate brick wall of solid heterosexuality that seems to be laser-focused on a certain Landau sibling-- granted, Sampo can't fault him too much for that, considering his own proclivities, but still. It's a deep annoyance that his attempts at flirting his way out of jail are met with a human brick wall of obliviousness.
Ugh. He isn't even good for getting information out of, because he's just as close-lipped about that as he is about a certain captain of the guard. What did Sampo do to deserve conditions like this?
He has no idea of what's going on a few floors above him, in the office of a certain intelligence officer.
"And that's the situation as it stands," Pela says, handing the briefing file over to Gepard. "I've already taken the liberty of finding a partner for you, and the assignment has been approved by the Supreme Guardian. Let's go meet with him."
Surely she means another member of the guard or another intelligence officer, right?
