"Quite a show" came a voice from a nearby room. Nate wandered out from Olivia's bedroom as Eli began to make himself comfortable. He had made his way here while Eli was busy with his target practice. He had used the time to snoop around Olivia's place. Flipping through her magazines, raiding her fridge and even jumping on her bed for a moment or two. Anyone who had seen him would think him an immature jackass and, to an extent, he was. But he had also used his snooping to get a better picture on who this Olivia person was. What kind of idiot walked into the underground movement's base and confronted the high and mighty Isabella Lancaster and expected to come out without a scratch. Well Olivia had certainly come out with more than a scratch. She had come out with a bullet wound and a war.

That kind of thing worried Nate. Sure, he had been reckless in the past but never when something truly important was on the line. But recklessness seemed to be quite the trend around here. First Olivia wanders into the dragons den and then Cedric follows her and almost gets himself killed. He hated to admit it but his first impressions of the reformists weren't great. But then he had never really been fond of those in power.

Tossing an apple from hand to hand, Nate addressed Eli with a smile. "This place is great" he said "There's alarms going off and people fighting, anger and angst and fiery weirdos shooting things out of the sky" He motioned with his fingers like he was a gunslinger and added "Who needs a movie!?" After taking a bite from his apple, he said with a full mouth "And you should see some of the things the princess has in there" He motioned over his shoulder with a thumb and let out a small laugh. He knew there would be hell to pay if anyone found out he had been snooping but it had been worth it. For sheer entertainment value alone.
