"Nothing that organised," Ed states. "The Rubies have territory, but it's haphazard at best. There's no traffic in or out that I've been able to find, not really. Yes, I know there has to be some, but it's very well concealed and possibly in the Up, which is inherently more difficult to navigate. The SIN guards are persistent in their harassment."

He holds the door for Oswald without thinking, sliding in after him and pulling the door shut. The cab sets off towards their destination. "Ginger's a civilian. A horrible naive one at that. Victor told her he's a hitman and she still doesn't believe that means he kills people. She's a tailor, a very talented one, but not part of it all."

And, despite his talent for it, Ed isn't really either. He's never been that interested in influence or money beyond avarice. He likes to find a niche and occupy it and he's done that here. "I won't use their terms. Marked. Unmarked. Contract holder. I find they work for me."
