A fake smile plastered his lips as he watched Methos and Finnegan begin their duel. Another time, he would have given himself over to the moment, enjoying the show. He'd not worked with either, and the chance to produce one of their songs had an appeal. They were good.
But now...He shook his head slightly. Clearly, the Americans- a synonym for fool, in his mind- didn't realize the danger they had put themselves in. Their homage to Marveet and more specifically, his performance put them in a dangerous, subversive light. He knew the CCD better than most. Ascendancy's power stood on many pillars. So, to an extent, a small amount of mockery could be tolerated.
A small amount. But now, three important and well known (well, mostly- Marveet wasn't a household name for the common folk) people- men with influence- were associated with mocking the Ascendancy. Hacking at one of those pillars.
Given the events of the ball the other day- and the very purpose he was out- well...wallet in hand, he sent a text to Leonid- the same as sending to Alex, really- but Leonid was his superior. He didn't think they'd send people to arrest them. Then again, who really knew? They had Ascedancy's ear, after all.
