[attr="class","marcelThread"]his fingers twitch, though the paper doesn't crease. marcel's eyes narrow for a brief moment before he begins to rub at them. "that so?" he says, a strained undercurrent to his lethargy.
[break][break]
irritation is enough to wipe his memory clean. the flutter of turning pages turns sharp as he looks for that same page again.

[attr="class","marcelThread"]he takes a cluster of documents with his free hand, keeping the dossier open beside him. "can't, don't worry." he'll let dominic take what he wants from that.

marcel covers his mouth on a yawn. "why the hell are you doing this now, anyway?" he flicks absently at the corner of a page as he makes note of its number. "it can wait til morning."

[attr="class","marcelThread"]even with his scrutiny, his gaze does not sharpen. marcel's expression remains gentle, if somewhat bland. reaching out to his side, he grabs the nearest chair and drags it; a slow scrape fills the hospital room.
[break][break]
"that's good."
[break][break]
gavin's approach--for some reason or another--clearly hadn't worked. perhaps marcel should be grateful that his authority is quieter, more easily displaced. he doesn't have the energy or patience to deal with olson in a bad mood, judging from the reports.
[break][break]
there's some pause before he speaks again. "what happened?"

[attr="class","marcelThread"]the pages turn. "maybe," he echoes, "but i haven't been looking." there's something in his voice that suggests dominic should follow suit.
[break][break]
marcel flicks back to the field; the memory of pink smoke filters through his thoughts. with any luck, he's created a dead end. tossing the folder onto the table, he reaches for the previous one again.

[attr="class","marcelThread"]"no." to both. "just curious." he can make assumptions, piece together the puzzle, but marcel always prefers surety. it helps to know his distrust is not misplaced--perhaps it's a comfort.
[break][break]
eventually, he takes a chair: the furthest possible seat from dominic. "struck lucky yet?"

[attr="class","marcelThread"]the sound of papers fill the gap; for a moment, that is all there is. marcel finds himself reaching for a coffee cup that isn't there, redirecting his hand to the next dossier. he's not entirely surprised when he opens it to a picture of a vaguely familiar field. his eyes linger on the flowers awhile.
[break][break]
"of course," he replies flatly. not in the way dominic was implying. "what do you plan to do with the avatars?"

[attr="class","marcelThread"]despite his rank, marcel isn't a well-known face--he's met with some resistance as he tries to enter the medical bay. unfazed, he presses his master key to the card reader, forcing the grunts to step aside when he makes his way through the entrance.
[break][break]
"you got a problem, bring it up with merlino." given recent events, he's sure no one's about it take him up on that offer.
[break][break]
it doesn't take long to locate wendy olson. marcel's eyes are kind as he approaches. "how's the leg?"

[attr="class","marcelThread"]he's already prepared himself for this question. marcel's smile doesn't falter.
[break][break]"like i said--" he takes a drag. "--bad luck."
[break][break]
marcel turns to gavin, watches the way concern tugs at his features, beneath it all. his gaze softens; he almost looks amused. "come on gav, how could i leave my partner in crime behind?"

[attr="class","marcelThread"]he blinks. "oh." his gaze flicks to the cigarette. "sorry."
[break][break]
the distraction makes things easier. smoke fills the distance between them as marcel settles his elbows on his knees. gavin's coughing prompts a slap on the back; his smile comes easier than expected.
[break][break]
"bad luck," he answers easily, "and a certain someone not knowing when to quit."

[break][break]
marcel busies himself with his own cigarette, quick to take the distraction. he might have asked himself what gavin's reason for being here was, did he not suspect there was no reason at all. a breath of nicotine accompanies the reminder of their friendship.

[attr="class","marcelThread"]marcel stiffens when he realises he's not alone. a sidelong glance has some of the tension easing, though he's still unsure what to make of gavin's presence. he returns his phone to his pocket.
[break][break]
"long life," he tries to joke. cigarettes rattle in their box. "want one?"

[attr="class","marcelThread"]marcel finds his reluctance waning as time passes; by the time they reach route 107, he's resigned himself to this getaway. looking out to the sea, he has to admit samuel's due some credit. maybe he did need a break.
[break][break]
at the rocket's prompting, he leans to look into the cooler. "any iced coffee?"

a quick skim tells him there's nothing he can't put off for later. he drops the file, reaching out for next as he blinks away his fatigue. this is a routine he's all too familiar with.

"why?" he asks, despite his suspicions, "you lonely?"
