poker face ( narrative )
Gambit used a burn phone most of the time. That would probably surprise no one in the Agency. He liked being able to reach people, but he didn't like being reachable by everyone or traceable by anyone. It was only good practice in his former lifestyle, and people probably thought no more of it than thieves did not change their ways.
But it was more than that. He didn't want people to find out about his past, and he didn't want certain people in his past to be able to find him anymore. It was too much to hope for. The people, or person, he wanted to hide from most could probably find him no matter what he did.
Gambit, however, at least hoped that he was no longer an interesting subject.
So even though he did not recognize the number, Remy only thought it was a wrong number. Those things happened. He answered it with a pleasant "Oui?"
"N'oublie pas."
Remy's red eyes narrowed at the vague command. "Don' forget what?" But the caller, whoever he was, hung up and left Remy listening to nothing.
Gambit shivered despite the warm day and stared at his phone. People passed by him on the sidewalk, not looking very pleased at the man who had just stopped in the middle of the street. But Gambit had more things on his mind right now.
