Getting out information to headquarters was more difficult than expected, even for someone who had plenty of experience doing it. This organization was so tightly knit Wade had began to fear he wouldn't be able to get out any information at all...but that of course was unnecessary, and he made his annual reports on time, keeping his cover.

More often than not, she wasn't alone. There were a lot of people who started their work out around the 5am mark, but most of them waited until 6, so there were never too many people around. But rarely did she see anyone just lying around.
She recognised him as she wandered slowly over -the soldier, Wade. She sort of liked him, as well as she could genuinely like anyone really. He wasn't short with her, he didn't seem to lose his temper all that quickly. It was something new for most around there -they were mostly a bunch of dicks.
"What're you doing? Basking like a cat?" She stood just a few steps away, not crowding, not getting too close. But she was mildly curious.

Except for this moment he'd obviously messed up.
Stiffening for only a moment, Wade relaxed when he realized it was only Sarah. He pushed himself from the ground, back onto his rear, and folded his arms to his lap. "I was going for snake, but I guess a cat could work better, being the larger predator and all." He said easily, a smile coming to his face.

She could feel mild apprehension, but that was probably just because she caught him a little off guard -which was strange, for Wade, and she dismissed it. "You seem a little tired." And that was more than just her empathy telling her that. "It might be the super early mornings that do it.
Can't working out wait an extra hour?"

"Predatory and powerful sounds awesome. No one likes slinky and slithery either, so yeah, lets go with cat." He watched her plop down to his level, his smile becoming more genuine. "I am a little tired. And, I think it is the super early mornings that do that."
Scratching the back of his head, Wade shrugged sheepishly. "Sarah, that's too much common sense at once. I don't know if I can handle it."

After shifting out of her guise of a soldier and into her true form she lets him know she's there. "That's an interesting morning habit if I ever saw one." She isn't going to out-right accuse him, but if he proceeded to slip up, far be it for her to hold any form of consequences at bay.
After all, if he were doing something untoward then he'd be fucking with the job of the Mutant Right Enforcers as a whole, and if there's one thing Mystique can't stand? It's people messing with Mutant Rights and superiority, a hand-wave to her days back with Magneto.

Falling into a smirk, Wade brushed some of the dirt from his pants before adjusting so he was standing to his full height again. "Clearly you've never been to boot camp."
He could sense her apprehension. It was possible he'd ruined his cover, but Wade wouldn't let onto that. Not one bit.

"So what is it you're interested in? I mean you obviously didn't want to check on the accounts." Oh yes, she can be incredibly unsubtle when she so chooses. Something about having just left the X-Men renders her a tad more socially liberal.

Ah yes, straight forward of course. Dead cold and to the point. Sorry Mystique, you'll get nothing out of him. "I'm sorry?"
