Ciri was something of a striking figure, even if they hadn't yet been formally introduced. He'd noticed her, looking as uncomfortable as he felt, earlier in the evening and from the questions he heard tossed her way (what the hell was Robotica??) identified her as a fellow Legionnaire.
He'd also heard her voice, clear as a bell, speaking to the hostage takers in those first few minutes, providing a distraction for individuals like himself to move to better position. So as she managed to slip close, he inched to close the gap and allow them to converse more easily and hopefully without drawing attention.
"I marked two holding back in the doorway that leads to the kitchens. I suspect they're covering an exit back through there."
He ducked around a bit of wall but found himself also hampered by the blindspot she mentioned. Glancing up and around, he caught his lower lip between his teeth.
"Where's a handy mirror or window when you need a reflection," he bitched softly. "Any chance of counting movement in or out of that area? Or are they holding their positions?"
