[Rome is there, making his way quickly up to Morgan's apartment only several minutes later. He's badly burned in a few places, and still slightly dizzy from blood loss, but other than a few scrapes, bruises, and the barely-dried blood that practically dyed his uniform red, he was alive.
There were guns strapped to his back, a submachine gun in a holster at his leg, his jacket had two handguns tucked inside- and he was stuffed to the brim with an array of combat and throwing knives. He looked ready to take on an army. Then again, what he was trying to fight was much worse.]
[And Morgan's old apartment... was actually in pretty good shape. Parts of it were collapsed, yes, but concrete doesn't burn. When Rome steps inside, Morgan is there.
Right there, actually, standing incredibly close to the door.

Why are you not injured?
[Is all he manages to get out before Morgan shoves him and he falls backward, flat on his back on the floor. He moves, sitting up, trying to comprehend what had just happened- it's going to take him a moment.]

He is also holding a pipe.]
Rome.
I'm really sorry, dude.

[He turns, but the sudden movement does not help the dizziness, and he stumbles backward, unable to register what he was seeing.]
You are not-

That was a stumble.
Good.
Morgan drops the pipe, moving over quickly to grab Romulus by the shoulders, as if bracing the dizzy fellow --
Before he instead gives him a sharp shove, toward the open door of the cage.]

Because I was lying to you.

[His eyes widen- shock, betrayal- as he moves to stand.]
You- you're in league with them.

[Lashing out suddenly, wrapping his fingers around the cage bars.]
It's my job!

[He's lashing out in return, though he doesn't get close to the bars.]
You've done enough! Let other people take some of the blows!

[His fingers tighten and he snarls, showing his teeth.]
It doesn't matter how many times I die. Better me than miss Rhyme or miss Raven or commander Elric.

You saved my life once, and so it's kind of my job to look out for yours now! So just fucking - deal with it!
