Wise decision.

I don’t abide long-term problems, [ Simon explains to Peter in helpful aside as he seats his knife back onto his belt. That’s the joke. ] Cut him down. [ Crank him down, whatever. Metzger gestures, half-hearted, to pullies and chains. Having gotten what he was after, he has all the markings of being on his way out, content to leave any actual shaking in Cage’s capable hands. ]

If he speaks German next time we string him up, we’ll know he’s a keeper, [ he says, and then pauses halfway past, turning back to reassess at a second thought. It’s a look Cage will have seen before: one that involves math. This many kilograms of Peter Quill vs this many kilograms of his First Mate, long drops vs sudden stops, etc.

He squares the rest of the way back around, a hand turned out in (unenthusiastic) allowance for the fact that not having to promote Seoraj is worth the extra ten minutes of his time. ]


I’ll supervise.
