[Yeager nods at the assumption, because Alexei's right. If he had accepted this contract, he would have handled it himself, because there's simply no room for error with a target this important. But it's a moot point anyway, since he wouldn't have considered it at all because it's Alexei.

Which probably says something about him, but he doesn't care to consider that now.]

You wouldn't know him, he was a young recruit; barely out of training, really. He was so determined to prove himself, but I never would have thought he'd be so brazen.

[Something he maybe could have appreciated, once. But there isn't any of that now and Yeager sighs with a shrug.]

Regardless, the rest of them won't be entertaining such ridiculous ideas. I've made my rules clear from the moment I took over as the leader of Leviathan's Claw and that much certainly isn't changing any time soon.
