[keeping Hiro down with the cue - for all the good that'll do if he tries to get up, but the warning's there, and if he /does/ move, well, he was warned - Robert manages to juggle the coat to where he's grasping at that envelope just as Hiro indicates it properly. he frowns at it, looking back, confusion warring with lingering hostility is this some kind of

trick

and a look of surprise crosses his face as the microbots go very, very still.

for a few more seconds there's nothing, tension filling the air as he stares at Hiro and the two thugs stare at one another because the hell? Yokai was just about to end the kid but with his back to them they can't read him properly, and that first one half-raises his cue because he's not sure if they need to go back to ending the kid for him, laundry boy or not, but then the microbots are deliberately rolling in to the distance between them all as Robert speaks very, very quietly;]


Out. Now.

[wait, what's he go-

oh shit there go the microbots as he half-turns, outright snarling in anger at being ignored, because he just gave another warning and it wasn't listened to and with the hostility turned upon, them the two goons practically trip over one another in their haste to get out.

a moment later, the pool cue upon Hiro is tossed to the side as Callaghan uses both hands to open the envelope and pull out the photos inside.

if his hands are trembling, he doesn't seem to notice.]
