[ He didn't get this far in the Barrel without noticing. Or without forming a plan so he didn't end up in those shoes, when he was first starting out. Though he doubts anyone would've tolerated his mouth for too long.
But he also has plans for at least one Barrel boss, the name insinuated between the lines. Pekka Rollins has no idea what's coming to him. Neither does Per Haskell, for that matter. All he has to do is play his long game and wait it out. Gather enough pieces to sway in his favor. There's still too many Dregs who resent his quick ascent here, people who'd rather see him dead than being in any kind of leadership position.
Even though he's the reason their profits have turned in the past couple years. And that the Slat hasn't fallen down around their ears.
No use in being mirroring their resentment, they'll see soon enough. ]
I'm not a boss, just a Lieutenant.
[ And if there's a subtle "for now" wavering in the air, well, that's for her to pick up. ]
Haskell generally lets me do what I want, as long as it's profitable. So, spying?
