[Jason has little doubt on whether Vander is tough. One has to be when living in places like Zaun or Crime Alley. But whatever this trench air is, it's nothing compared to getting a dose of fear toxin]

My side will be monitoring. We've been monitoring since we realized he showed up. Is anyone else on your side aware of this?

[cantilevers]

[He did take the advice seriously, but he also expected that there were perhaps other modes of introduction of the toxin into the system. Perhaps that's where the pair would switch things up. Who knew. He would prepare accordingly.]

How many are on your side?

[He considered the question seriously, mulling it over. He sipped his whiskey.]

Potentially one other. Even if they aren't aware, I don't expect them to condone it anyway.

[leastdramatic]

Enough of us.

[Jason's aware of how unhelpful the answer is but he still needs to play some things close to the chest]

Depending on how this goes, you'll probably find out soon enough. We're all gonna need to cooperate.

[cantilevers]

Trust only goes so far. I understand.

[There was the need to protect their own, and yet, he expected there was more than that involved here. He watched Jason carefully to try to understand the other man a little more.]

It doesn't matter to me; I make my stand the same way regardless of anyone else from my world. If you all want to take lead, do so.

[leastdramatic]

It's nothing personal. A healthy sense of paranoia comes with the job.

[Jason sips his whiskey]

I'd rather this be a cooperation than one leading the other. We each have about half the intel to to this next disaster.

[cantilevers]

I'm aware. I did run part of city for some years and there were plenty that would want to see me or mine dead.

[He knew the necessity of caution, but on the heels of what his side had just gone through being rallied as they had, it didn't chase the paranoia in him. It was good he has a stone for now.]

Do we? I expect your intel will be deeper than mine. I have tread carefully.

[leastdramatic]

You still know certain things better than us. Crane's one of our rogues but other than that, we're the outsiders to you guys.

[After just barely averting one disaster, Jason's trying to make it clear he's much more interested in teamwork for the next incoming crisis]
