[Lio let Emerald engage however she wanted. The small talk was likely to at least draw suspicion away from the fact that Lio was in no mood to interact with them or really any other guard. All they get is a curt 'thank you' from the blonde as the doors are finally open and they're allowed to pass. There was, of course, another checkpoint right out the gate here, but the two of them were allowed to pass freely with no scrutiny, given they'd been let down here in the first place and clearly weren't prisoners themselves.
When at last they'd made their way into the darker streets past the earshot of any guards by the elevator, Lio glanced back, then gave Emerald a serious face.]
Think that trick will work for our return trip out? Or should we come up with another plan for getting ourselves through a second time?
I don't see why not. As long as I don't run out of chroma or we don't end up with surprise witnesses, anyway.
[ Emerald can't account for someone walking up behind her and seeing, but as long as there are no surprises it should go smoothly. She looks around while they walk. She doesn't really know what to do now that they're in. It's probably better to stay close, anyway. If the people in here really are the "worst of the worst" then even if Emerald considers herself a badass, she has no rep here. It's two of them and god knows how the pecking order here has established, it could be dangerous. ]
