His attention diverts with ease to
jayden cross before narrowing as they fall on
BARNABY FINCH . While his opinions of
Ashley Shepard and
Hitoshi Inoue were a little skewed, one he considered dumb the other- well- pretty neutral. They knew of their awkwardness around mentions of Jayden, but hadn’t been able to see them do anything other than move boxes and hold their liquor. However his opinions turn more sour when Bee brings up
Selena Desmarais .
“Ah, so it was your oversight the barely month old League traitor is here.” he said, lifting his chin. Even with the height difference he wouldn’t let Bee take advantage of it. [break][break]
“Admin Bee as a fellow intelligence expert, wouldn’t you agree she’s too high of a risk for this? Surely some executive could’ve handled her evaluations instead of wasting SPECTRA’s time? Especially when she’s shown how easily she can turn on her peers?” Even if Barnaby and him agreed on team composition being a key factor of success, he doesn’t seem to back down on the potential risk of trusting and exposing any more to wishy washy recruits. Especially, not after the last big meeting they’d held where
Cillian Quinn emphasized the amount of defectors they’d had.
“These are evaluations of a recruits potential, sure, but my concern is the safeguards put in place to how much they can really learn and access. Not all intelligence is big things like our avatar specs and our legendary data.” Pale green eyes stare into cold blue, unflinching. Irritation grows as he looks at him. Gods, he’s too fucking pretty. However, much like
Felix Gallagher and
jayden cross , it elicits no blush, no shyness. Only anger, envy. God had favorites and it showed. [break][break]
Before he can say something else that perhaps bordered on insolence, the subject moved back to
Isaac Merlo . The other Beast is in agreement. He nods when they further add to the point of team synergy vs individual skills. There’s nothing really he can add there. Rocket, while it could foster solo operatives,
SPECTRA was not one of those operations. Again, his eyes went back to his friend and he nodded a couple of times as well. There’s a reason he was keeping track of recruits for intel. The most malleable ones anyway. He turns to
Tempest Quinn , proverbial fangs bared once more. The man oversteps, and if
Cillian Quinn wanted to slap him around because he bit his husband a little bit, so be it.
“If the order comes down, let the Beasts handle it, Executive Quinn.” he stated, in a way that more or less conveyed
’Why are you here?’ Even as the man moves to look for
Elisabeth Fiorelli ’s approval. [break][break]
He disagrees, but not enough to contradict
Elisabeth Fiorelli openly. He’d already stated his hesitancy with using
SPECTRA as an evaluator tool. Then again,
“If it’s more convenient to use sims to evaluate new recruits, perhaps having this every quarter would be beneficial to gather that data? Maybe not necessarily for SPECTRA but overall. It may help build better training regiments instead of a trial and error approach.” Mint’s still put off, clearly by the slight pout he wears, but he’s already scribbling on his notepad again.
Cillian Quinn also seemed unconcerned. Well, if it wasn’t a problem to them- Mint would relent, relaxing slightly as he leaned on a sofa chair. Eventually moving back to track his own team. All the irritation went as quick as it had come up. [break][break]
As he reviews footage, he writes quickly. Mint barely glanced down every few seconds as he annotated what he was watching. He’s not sure how to feel about his team, waiting a little longer to comment, before taking peaks at the other screens.
