“capitalism, socialism, communism, any -ism really. it’s all a grab for power. just tied with a different wrapping paper.” he said almost absentmindedly. it wasn’t that he didn’t believe in government it was just that–no it was exactly that. he didn’t believe in anyone that said they knew what was best for the masses. how can anyone know what was best for the masses when the masses didn’t even know what they fucking wanted. lips curing into a smile, he pressed enter and his eyes scanned his searches, from every database around the world; the CIA, the FBI, the old KGB files, hell he even got the iranian government’s database. “well it’s a nice chair.” he said cheeky before grabbing what he needed from the agency and quickly creating a package for audrey. “some idiot broke five international laws and the wicked witch of the west wanted to make sure it doesn’t go out into the public. my agency is a shithole. “ he said half joking before he looked at anna quietly. “i never said i was a good guy, now did i?”

IT TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE. she looks at him, her face softened as she hears his words —- i never said i was a good guy. she never took him for one. anna doesn’t believe in good guys. no one is innocent, no one is free of sin. she knows, she knows, she knows. she bites the inside of her cheek and sits down on the chair in front of him, taking in a deep breath. ❛ good. good guys are boring, honestly. i couldn’t stand having another adam around. ❜
