[indent]After Lily's words of encouragement, the corners of the Lieutenant's lips slightly turned upwards, creating the closest thing to a smile from Alfie. Though that was only short-lived as soon Thrax gave them the order to preserve some ounce of composure. At that moment, Alfie sat straight, sweeping his fingers through his black hair before readjusting his side cap. [color=778899]"Yes sir!"[/color] Alfie barked back, as if he were a fresh-faced recruit, but if you were well-acquainted with Alfie, he was always particularly enthusiastic when it came to heeding to Thrax's every word. 

Once footsteps were heard located right outside their cell, Alfie hurriedly bounced to his feet and marched to be alongside the Captain. He released a sigh of relief once noting the First Sentinel's presence. It was face Alfie would much rather prefer as oppose to the Spartan king, or any member of the muse faction. Desperately enough, Alfie wanted to be a prisoner under the hand of the vanguards, however the marriage alliance does not seal his fate under that faction. The muses are involved, and that is what scares him. Alfie believed that in order for the penal colony to fear the Overseers, he had to let the faction leaders know that they are not untouchable. Alfie did not make an example of the Spartan king, the man is seven feet tall and is prone to consuming fits of rage. Unleashing his flagellum against the back of the beast would exhaust far too much energy and time. Alfie was not going to put all efforts to break one man. The masterminds, in Alfie's eyes, was the most sane or at least dignified of factions, therefore the Victorian was not his target. So he kept his eye on another faction, one that supposedly displayed hope through artistic expression. Alfie crushed their spirits as he crushed Isabel's body over mere shortage of crops. 

The temporary tranquility Alfie once felt disappeared just as he noticed Theo's right hand. The second she entered the cell with Reno, Alfie just pierced Cassie with cold glares. Because the woman was much taller than the Lieutenant, he puffed his chest up and straightened his back, striving to even as their prisoner, show his superiority in front of a criminal. [color=778899]"Reno Wylde... it is a joy to see you... [b][i]just[/i][/b] you."[/color] Even as Alfie spoke to the First Sentinel, he did not break eye contact with Cassie.
