[He had had barely enough time to know why Noctis was such a gravitational character that pulled people from both his world and others, but he knew that the kid had some sort of influence anyway. But another thing calls to his attention:] Why would an asshole want to get you in a lab?
[Slightly amused, he gives Prompto a chuckle. Low and raspy, but not exactly mean or malicious.] Once again, you’re assuming I haven’t done anything dodgy before.
The bounty is messed up, I’ll tell you that. [He between thumb and forefinger, he feels the edge of the knife pensively.] Another “grade A asshole”, as you call it, wanted the kid I was protecting. So he placed a bounty on her, alive for 250 million. He knew I had to get out of the way so he placed another on me. So it’s not like I’m anyone of importance.
I think my employer let it stay in my record as a reminder to the institution I worked for that I have a purpose for being in it. But I’m kind of a wildcard. It wouldn’t be the first time if the guy I’m working for told me to do a job, and that if I didn’t succeed, that he’d hand me over to the authorities for the shit I pulled.
fistbump!
