SWAT maintained eye contact with Spindle for the duration of her movements and replies. She took a few steps forward which meant that SWAT's powers were more effective. The closer proximity he was to his opponents the better. SWAT could sense that Spindle meant business. The kidnapper was not above killing to get her way. Cooperation was the key to their interactions. He continued releasing feelings of trust toward her. SWAT also began implanting the desire for cooperation within the woman as he replied with the megaphone, [color=orangered]"The demands you have given the Director will take some time fulfill...I will inform him of your request directly."[/color] Then SWAT activated his comm to the team which included their director, [color=orangered]"Director from SWAT, Spindle demands that you begin dismantling the First Guard. She claims she has taken two more hostages. Do you copy?"[/color] 

He waited a couple of seconds before he got his response, [b]"Matthew will be unavailable during active missions. Try to stall and distract while using your power to slowly neutralize the threat."[/b] Not the response he was looking for. [color=orangered]"...copy that."[/color] He replied. They weren't giving him anything to work with. A show of solidarity or something that would confirm his word to Spindle. Lacking that, he would just make something up.

SWAT decided to continue playing the mediator. It was not Spindle vs. him. SWAT was there to work with [i]her.[/i] At least that is what he wanted her to believe. He upped the ante of emotional manipulation. Slightly more potent waves of trust percolated through the kidnapper. SWAT also implanted the desire for her to work with him since he was apparently acquiescing to her demands. 

[color=orangered]"The Director has started the process of dismantling the First Guard. Wouldn't you show your willingness to work with him by releasing a few of your hostages as an act of good faith?"[/color]
