[h2]Raymond Haywood: Icehouse Hideout[/h2]
Hm. A living shadow, or so he claimed... how interesting. Not as interesting, though, as Gamble's power failure simply from being in the Broker's presence. Apparently, he could negate powers of that sort even if they weren't in his direct proximity. Good to know, just in case the need to kill him presented itself. Ignoring Sofia's hopefully temporary lack of intelligence, Headhunter observed as Heartless pummelled Gamble to a near-pulp, then asked for assistance in removing him from the premises. He was about to offer his own services, but somebody else- another newcomer- had walked into the room, apologised for their lateness, then agreed to help Heartless remove the man from the premises. Permanently, if needed.

And that reminded Raymond that Gamble would probably talk if simply allowed to leave. Reveal their location, either to the PRT or another group that meant them poorly... under most circumstances, the only solution would be his death. Chatterbox's mentioning of the unspoken rules didn't exactly phase him, either, considering how he'd been breaking them discreetly for quite some time; however, his proposal that he turn Gamble into a thrall of his did seem interesting enough to work with. That in mind, Raymond strolled over to grab another chair, placed it in front of the chair currently occupied by the brainwashing cape, then pulled Gamble out of Heartless' grip and shoved him into it, standing behind it in readiness to keep him in place if need be.
