But, of course, Quinlan wasn't a raging bull who couldn't act reserved when he needed to. Devil has been resting for months now, so being taken for a lie was more than reasonable. If he wanted to correct the misunderstanding, all he needed to do was don the mask. Based on what he was hearing here, the Consortium was slowly losing, so sooner or later Quinlan would be called in anyhow.
Or perhaps not. Who knew what Black Fang was thinking. She allowed him to leave, as she was informed of his upcoming trial by Vex. But perhaps even after his return, he'd be left alone. Black Fang didn't seem particularly worried about the Consortium's current state, having never personally appeared on the front lines.
