[ Diego's head seems glanced with the blow of the accusation, snapping to the side. His visor smokes. ]
No, what I've just learned is that you're still too little of a man to protect who you need to! Well, I guess so long as I'm around you can just sit comfy up there on your high horse.
I am trying to protect what I need to, Mr. Armando! What you don't realize is that for me... It's been eight years since that case happened! There's people here you don't know about. Dahlia might not be the worst of the threats who are lying here!
But just because you forgot about me when they tucked me away, out of sight and out of mind, doesn't mean I haven't kept my ear cocked to the wind. Every now and then a breeze and birdsong comes through the bars.
The name Gavin followed you through your disbarment to your murder trial. Speccy there, he brained a man with a bottle, didn't he? I gotta hand it to the man, he doesn't look very vicious.
But the worst ones... they never really do, do they?
Oh... So you have heard about him... [With some people showing up from the past, it had been easy to assume that Godot was behind the time as well. He quietly nods.]
Yes... He is more dangerous than he looks. He's intelligent and calculating. He knew how to work the court system and to manipulate people to his own ends. He's good at poisoning people, too. [A morbid grin that grew up in disbarment years appears on his face.] Maybe they'd make a good match.
Ever notice how most creatures that use venom are often spiders or belly-crawling snakes? Most people kill them on sight and don't think twice about it.
...
So that's who you think is the biggest threat right now? Gavin?
