</div>Coffee. Not the watered down version they served in the cafeteria, but bold, real coffee, wafted in the cup placed before him, and Rebel looked at Marcia as if he had just handed him life-saving medication. She joined them as the men began to talk. Once she lifted her fork he would see it as a sign it was alright to eat, but not beforehand. If nothing else, he learned decent manners from his parents.<br/><br/>"I don't know their history, or yours," Rebel admitted. His eyes went from Armando to his sister at talk of the cartel, and when Armando mentioned changes needing to be made, he nodded once. "I didn't see your report." He doubted he would.<br/><br/>"Ben," he opened the book to the short list of men who Dan had listed for retraining or reassignment. The man who shot Brian was first on the list. He pointed to that name. "Yes, and doing that will go a long way towards helping the community feel like Mr. Hale acknowledges that mistakes were made and is taking measures to prevent them. Dan made a list of others we should include."<br/><br/>He took a sip of coffee and for just one moment he wondered if Marcia was a magician; it was marvelous. "There's also the matter of the other community he mentioned, the one that some of the exiled people were aligned with, who wanted to take over Abendblume. We shouldn't hide the true dangers out there that Hale was working to shield the people from."<br/><br/>Sitting the mug down, he began to turn the page once more. "There's also the idea of 'us' versus 'them' internally we need to work on. I think that those on the wall lookout could have other jobs as well, and we can rotate the population in on some shifts," he suggested. "Help people feel like they have some control over maintaining their own safety."
