[ He follows Silco's gaze, a humourless quirk of his lips at the solution proposed.
Yeah. That makes sense, though. Silco wouldn't fuck around without plenty of precautions in place; nobody who has ever achieved his position of power would. Amos is plenty familiar with the notion, has had no problems acting within the confines of those parameters. And besides — not only are they technically allies, but Silco is actually doing him a favour. The only reason this might not be mutually beneficial is because of Amos' own bullshit — and that's the entire reason he's doing this, to try to put an end to it.
He stands back up with a small grunt, pushing himself back up with the table's help. It really is strong and sturdy. That'd make things a hell of a lot easier for him if it held, too. ]
That makes sense. Restraining me might actually make things worse on my end — [ someone's got a problem with losing agency. Even if he volunteers to use them when he's of sound mind, who knows how it'll fuck with his head when he's high on Shimmer or just sheer rage — ] but whatever we can do to make sure I don't trash the place or kill you. Those're the last things I want to do.
[ He's such a good ally? Trashing the place after he's just put a bug in it would be detrimental to that whole operation and might come back to bite him. And Silco's doing him a favour; it'd be a dick move to just kill him. ]
I still got some things to sort out with some people in case I do end up needing to kick it again, but once I do that, we can figure out a time.
[ He holds out his hand for Silco to shake. It's a deal, then? ]
