Mozilla's questions instantly brought a smile on Sycom's face. "Vex was bullied in school and ended up killing the boys that tortured her. Lolipop's step-mother abused her so Lolipop painted her red. Discord has a split-personality, so to say. Discord doesn't pose any threats. Beserker, his other half, does. Abused by his father, he took the man's life. That was when he went into psychiatric care. When it was discovered that he couldn't be "cured," we pulled him into the SFA." Sycom blinked, realizing he hadn't really given Mozilla a straight answer. "I guess I'll let you decide if they're respectable. I know that outside their personal stories, they would not hurt anyone unless they were a threat to society or themselves." Sycom really did luck out when it came to getting a team. Although each had murdered someone, each had a valid reason. Self-defense, if properly fought by a top-notch lawyer, might have saved them from the SFA. Sadly, none could afford such luxuries, which is how they landed here.
Punching something into his watch, he smiled up at the blonde before him. "Food will arrive momentarily. I also requested that they provide you with snacks so you shouldn't have to worry about starving to death. If you ever need you feeding routine bumped up again, just let me know. I wouldn't want our Cucuy* to starve." With a light chuckle, he moved closer to his teammate. Pulling up another display, he showed Mozilla the SFA library and all its books. The list was huge and ever-growing. Turning to Mozilla, he asked, "Are there any books, authors, or genres you're interested in? Even though you're not an agent, I can enroll you in the Book Club. Once a week, you'll receive two books to read. Once you've finished them, you can evaluate the book and attend the weekly meeting. I would be more than willing to escort you to the meeting. I've actually been meaning to get into reading. Daliah doesn't seem too fond of my romantics so I was thinking a book might help me understand other ways to show love." His hand moved to his chin. "But that's a lot of books to read. Maybe I'll just have you recommend things?" Sycom smiled again. It was odd, especially since he was sealed in an inmates cell. Despite the threat Mozilla posed, Sycom couldn't find it in him to truly be alarmed. He had nothing to fear, so why fret?
As his eyes look in the man before him, Sycom wondered if he should inform him about the new inmate they secured. He was just a child. His parents up and left him in a building to fend for himself. He became quite feral and that's when he people started to disappear in that neighborhood. The SFA swooped in and picked him up. For the last week, he's been penned in and undergoing a lot of testing. They were hoping they could "tame" the kid and pair him up with another inmate. Sadly, about 90% of the inmates weren't fond of children. Mozilla was one of a few.
"Would you ever consider 'adopting' a child?" The question literally came out of nowhere for Mozilla. "We picked up a kid a week ago and we're having issues with him. He need a mentor. Not sure if this is something you'd want. But, if you'd like, I can arrange for you two to meet. But it'll have to be later. Tomorrow's a pretty full day for us. We have a group meeting at 9AM and then we're getting shuffled into the field to begin researching." The redhead looked up at Mozilla, who was still scrolling through the library and highlighting books he wanted.
*Cucuy is a mythical ghost-monster found in many Hispanic countries. Cucuy comes to people who call its name. Those who plead for Cucuy are often those who are hurt, have been hurt, or are in danger. Cucuy is a vigilante of sorts, in such that it only kills bad men. Once Cucuy has purged an area of the bad men, it moves onto another town, waiting for the call to save another.
